so what are you doing now Berger has been ruled out of rd1

also I would look at finding someone other than Byrnes - can see him scoring much - maybe Petterd

If youve gone Frost to save a few bucks then thats a mistake - being a tall back (if he plays) he will likely only get 40's -think there are much better options, like Pittard foro similar cash

my only other query is Stevens - not convinced on his JS - will play first few rounds now with Boyd out - but if he can prove himself in next 3 weeks then could be gold.

If youve gone Frost to save a few bucks then thats a mistake - being a tall back (if he plays) he will likely only get 40's -think there are much better options, like Pittard foro similar cash

other than that looks like a very strong team

Blicavs as the sub recon he could play a pivotal role not only in the ruck but also up forward

Can see your point with burns but really think its a 50/50 with petterd and can see him scoring better in melbournes team rather than petterd trying to score in Richmonds

Frost is mainly a money decision i will admit but as i stated i only have 6k left and would need to scrounge an extra 30k to get pittard in.

I believe with Boyd being out it gives Koby a real opportunity to try and cement a spot in the team either way fairly sure he will play the 3 rounds Boyd is out then could always look at him as a downgrade/upgrade option depending on how well he scores

If you get rid of Byrnes it would be at least 8/10. No way a small forward at melb is gonna see much of the pill
