7/10

[TheBombres]

Any thoughts on how to improve on a 7/10  ?

[Resch]

Ablett or Swan
Lose Peterson and possibly Gumby
Stevie J not reliable
Rookies need to re-looked at down the track

[TheBombres]

My rookies are very loose at the minute like everyones you can't possibly pick them yet so that will change after selection so i agree there. Stvie j may go for higgins and just taking a punt on gumbleton at the moment, hopefully he plays this week. Thanks

not bad but defs room for improvement.
starting gumbleton is ballzy cos he is just a constant let-down - if ur confident in him then roll the dice tho.

Lacking a clear cut captain like swan or ablett - mitchell and selwood can be inconsistent at times. Maybs downgrade goddard to s. fisher, s. gilbert, or shaw then upgrade selwood or mitchell to swanny or gablett.

free up some cash as well so ur at least not starting gumbleton ... maybe downgrade cooney to someone 100k cheaper then upgrade gumby to sam wright or ben warren or similar.

Watson is a good choice - i think he represents good value for money and should be ineveryones team imo

[TheBombres]

Thanks whit, great feedback always good to use another set of eyes

[hespey]

i like each line except the ruck.

i hate the ruck, because your choice wasnt restricted by salary.

cox is over the hille  :D.. he is an old, injured bird and i dont think he will recapture his form, esp with nic nat nipping at his heels.

hille is coming off a knee  :-\. he has been struggling pre-season, and probably wont get a gig until round 5. although he appears a bargain buy, i believe his price will drop before it rises. consider grabbing him after he posts a couple of 90+ games.


go for kruezer, tippitt, sandilands, m. clarke, or a nm tall - petri or hmac.


you can afford it, and it will post much better results.  ;)

[hespey]

your ruck reserves also hoover cock.  :o

try warnock and lobbe/trengove

[TheBombres]

A few changes, taking on the advice i got. Does anyone think i've improved? Or is it worse???? Thanks again guys and please keep the feedback coming

rucks = much better

[TheBombres]

thanks hespey, the ruck changes allowed me to bring in swan for selwood too which i think is a good move now i've done it.

[WANTAWIN]

Looking better 7.5/10 maybe swap ellis for ladson and upgrade gumbleton in forward with xtra cash

[TheBombres]

Its gonna either be a massive mistake or a stroke of genius but at this stage i'm gonna take the leap of faith and stick with gumby if he can get a game or two under his belt b4 rnd 1. Thanks though and I may yet change it late in the pre season
