Whats your reasoning behind choosing Cunnington over Trengove?

[west]

Good scoring but the back line is risky. Couldn't find space for Trengrove in your forward line? That would allow you to upgrade either Tadhg or Sheppard.

I would

Maine --> Trengrove

Use the cash to upgrade a back.

Could also move Voldt down a bit and get some more cash from a ROK or Deledio or something.

[Blueboys]

Same as west, drop Chris Mayne for sure!!!

[christoff]

i didnt have enough cash to have trengrove so i had to get the next best rookie and going by the draft it was cunnington.

And i think a fit mayne with a good preseason he might b a handy player and make me abit of cash.

I dont wanna start to many rookies in my starting team. what r your thoughs?

[Blueboys]

Maybe down grade Roo to Brown for $

Upgrade Mayne or cunnington

Christoff,

Not a bad start.
Defence: I would probably go with Ladson over Ellis.

Mids: Good. Risky starting 2 rookies in the midfield. Id have one starting.

Rucks seem okay.

Forwards: IMO I  think you have to have Cunnington and Trengove but thats just me.

[christoff]

the reason y i've gone with 2 rookies in the midfield is i think there are better young midfielders than fowards or backs u think mayb i change over mayne for trengrove in the foward line and have 2 rookies starting in the forward line?

Yeah Trengove will play early I feel, plus you will have some extra cash to spend elsewhere maybe in the backline. Its upto you what you want to do with Mayne he will rise in value and he should play 22 games. So you either keep him or downgrade him.

there i changed a few players around what r your thoughts beter now or b4?

Thats pretty good. I would also just tweak your rucks - lock in Lobbe from Port Adelaide and get rid of Orreal. That way you have cover in your rucks in case Hille isnt right for Round 1 and if Warnock doesnt hurt himself in NAB cup against Sydney in a few weeks time.
