Great team! Just wondering about the C. Jones selection? Do you know something we don't!

You mean Young not Jones?

Been injured all of last season, Im thinking that with Shaw gone O'Brien will shift back and Young will slot into that wing spot which O'Brien scored quite well in this year. Only a shade over 200k, however theres always 5 months to speculate :P

Did you forget about the fact that Adam, Karnezis... plus draftees, and then the other guys like Dwyer or Martin are still waiting for a gig too? I mean, he's not a bad player when he plays, but I don't think they'll play him unless he's 100% fit. Would definitely be one of those guys you'd track pre-season but could be a great pick if it works out.

Of those Adams is inside, and only Karny would challenge for a wing spot but the Pies have said they will play him inside. Young is a true wingman and kick is elite. He would play if fit

Mr.Craig

Looks like a fairly solid team. I'm sure you'll find better forward bench options in due course.

I dislike the Young option, hasn't shown any scoring potential, also with the likes of 2 potential midfield rookies from the 2013 draft and other players like sinclair or seedsman to fill up a spot on the wing may leave Young out of the side. Also the fact that he is always injured :P

Money

I love how unique this team is and I think it will go huge, Love the Backs and Mids especially but No Swan or Ablett?

I'll probably get some sanity back before the first lockout and start one of them, but I dont see them as the value for money they used to be. :/

Probably  going to upgrade Steven to Jelwood and downgrade somewhere else so I dont have 5 round 10 MID's.

Thankyou Money, I try to be unique with the way I do things. :) Cheer for you!

Why'd you cut Dayne Beams? Seems like he's a great pick this year even if he doesn't get the discount.
