Backs: Goddard, Grimes, Gibbs, Broughton, Pittard, B.Goodes - subs: Docherty, Stevenson

Midfielders: Swan, Ablett, Boyd, Cotchin, Murphy, Wines, O'Meara, Viney - subs: K.Mitchell, Crouch

Rucks: Goldstein, Leuenberger - subs: Currie, Naismith

Forwards: Franklin, Rockliff, Robinson, Monfries, Mayes, Maccaffer - subs: Daniher, Membrey

How could this team be improved??

Looks an excellent team mate!

Can't really fault any of it tbh, the only thing that might be a bit risky is Monfries. If you think he'll seriously gun it at the power, go for it, but I'm opting for Shannon Byrnes ahead of him - cheaper (I think!) and should flourish in a new environment and leadership position at the Dees. That move would free up a bit of cash that you could use for a future upgrade or to fiddle around with something in your starting line-up!

Agree with Toga here. Pretty sure Monfries hurt his hammy the other day so I would monitor his progress.
Monfries to Byrnes would free up about 120k which would allow you to also look at Varcoe

Yeah cheers lads, i go for the power and really believe Monfries will be a great pickup and should work well through forward and midfield rotations! I'll take the advice into consideration though!

i had monfries in my side until he did his hammy, out for 4 weeks !! he might just be another hartlett injury-wise

What did you do with him?

yorgis · February 21, 2013, 04:18:13 PM

brought in byrnes, but i will see how well gus recuperates from this. originally they said he was going to miss the next game

anyway, but scans revealed a slight tear, so he will miss up to 4 weeks and will be ready for rnd 1. i just hope its not an

ongoing issue as he might just be a POD for me
