Scotland, Goddard, Shaw/Delideo, Lake, Hargraves, Clarke, Ellis (Smedts, Bugg)

Very intersted to know some thoughts

Lids will come into my side if he plays well this week as he is far more consistent than Shaw....if he plays terrible then shaw it is.

Otherwise some feedback would be great as I think the backline is by far the hardest line in the side this year

Jukes

Wouldn't go for Lake but the rest is good.

JKraz

who would you recommend for lake?

well eski and grimes could both average 85+ and be keepers i dont think lake can be a keeper so would go up to shaw or deledio or down to a rookie if you dont like my midpricers

TheMailman

Its a good backline

But I wouldn't be judging Shaw v Delidio based on one match. Research them up some more.

Otherwise I wouldn't be changing it much

You have Hargrave, you don't need lake.

The eski's not even guaranteed a game this year is he?   Some of the Swans "best 22" sides don't have him in it.  If Lake remains fit he will play every week

TheMailman

Malceski will be lucky to get 10 games let alone 22

Lake looks like an ok option as does Hargraves

Yeah that sounds like a good swap

Colliwobblers

i voted solid, lids and shaw will both be top 6 defenders again this season so i wouldn't worry about that decision much.

Lake is the weakest link but as you say he will play all games he is uninjured for, i frefer hargrave over him and if you had some cash spare i would upgrade lake to a waters/grimes type priced player or downgrade to a rook and make an upgrade elsewhere (if you can find enough solid rook picks in def named for a game round 1). That is the issue

nostradamus

l had to rate it as solid.....its too similar to mine not to  ::)
