ok looking pretty neat. Vlausten is risk at D4 but if he is like Ellis/Morris he could be fine..Mids look alright. J.Blair? intesting pick. might not be the worse pick if in the FWDS. Hope he stays away from the dreaded vest.Rucks, real strong. As long as Maric is fully fit after an interupted pre-season he should continue on.Fwds, 2 playing rookies + Macaffer is a cause for concern. This is where you may have to downgrade Maric/Blair in order to at least upgrade a 1 of those 3.. good luck though, could work out ok

I like it - bit different
lot of cash in those rucks and i think Maric might be over priced early after his pre season problems.... stella year last year i hope he backs it up dont get me wrong but for SC point early on maybe better options for $$

Thanks for the reply guys.

Rookies aren't locked yet, so I've gotta play around with them still.

I might drop Maric to Roughead or something, save the $50K. Then drop Blair, and upgrade Forwards to someone affordable. Thoughts?

[HotTiges]

Blair > FWDS then Kerridge > Mids then Kerridge > Wines at least.. then Wines can get upgraded.. surely will avg 70 plus.. doing Maric > Roughy/McEvoy/Jacobs or even Kreuzer may get you a premo for Blair or upgrade Lee/B Kennedy to  a Varcoe / J Kennedy in the FWDS..

[HeshG]

Thanks. Not a fan of that idea behind J Kennedy and Varcoe in the forwards that a lot of people are going at.

However, I've gone with what you said. :)

Who is best to go with in the forwards? I can spend up to $523,200. Hale? Hawkins? Blair? or D Martin?

[HotTiges]

haha yeah those are the picks of the mid pricers.523k? is that for trading out one of Lee/B Kennedy? anyways tough range. If SJ wasn't suspended he'd be the pick but otherwise a D Martin or a Watts would be a good pick.. even Darling would be a good 'roughy or POD'

[HeshG]

Nah I traded out Kerridge.


Yeah I know. :( I wold have locked in SJ, but suspension is annoying. I'll take Martin to be on the safe side.

[HotTiges]

Martin's not a safe pick but could be. Head seems to be in the right position this season so we might get lucky!
