An interesting team mate. Here's my thoughts:

D: Very very strong, although I like to see teams with at least two of the 'Three G's' (Gibbs, Goddard, Grimes). I personally think Goddard is an absolute lock this year, but its up to individual preferences this year. While it is very strong, maybe you've put too much money into it, that could be better spent elsewhere. I would downgrade Hartlett/Broughts to B.Goodes or J.Pittard.

M: Again, strongish but surely you need at least one of Swanny or GAJ? :o Don't like taking risks on mids, because that's where the points are, so would look to upgrade Ziebell to Swan/GAJ with the cash you can make from downgrading one of your backs. Sam Mitchell and Scotty Thompson are a bit old for my liking, would swap to others with more upside (Cotchin, Redden, Beams, Dangerfield).

R: Can't fault, pretty stock-standard.

F: Pretty strong also. I like the one on-field rookie approach given the lack of cheaper options. All good selections, although I have Robinson, Martin, Thomas (if named) and Zorko ahead of Bartel at this stage.

Summary: Reasonably strong team. My suggestion would be to downgrade a defender (or two) and upgrade ziebell (& Embley if you can) to premium midfielders - imo you must have at least one of Swan or Ablett, as that's where your captain's points will come from.
