Hi Guys,

Like you all, after numerous decisions, this I think is my Team for the first 2-3 rounds.  Like all, I've tried to incorporate as many DPP players (DEF/MID, RUC/FWD...).

Left Swannie out ATM as his price (hopefully) will drop after a few rounds and will upgrade to him from Moloney/McVeigh etc...

I've got $27K left

DEF : Goddard; Gibbs; Heppel; Vlastuin; T.Armstrong; Pittard <B.Goodes; Terlich>
MID : Ablett; Penders; JPK; Rocky; McVeigh; Moloney; K.Mitchell; O'Meara <Wines; B.Crouch>
RUC : Ryder; Longer <Rowe; Daw>
FWD : Cox; Robbo; Dusty; JJK; LeCras; Karnezis <Jaksch; B.Kennedy or McAffer>

I have tried to look at the draw for the first 2-4 rounds with this team in mind

Any feedback is greatly appreciated

Le Cras will struggle to get enough of the ball to score more than 60 vs Freo and Hawthorn. I'd downgrade him to a different mid-priced forward (Varcoe's DPP is handy) and then use the cash to do Ablett -> Swan. Yes, Swan is the most expensive, but he is for a reason, and has had a cracking pre-season. Ablett on the other hand missed training over December/January with back problems and has some tough opponents round 1-3, so I actually think Ablett is more likely to drop.
