You think Boyd will be good ? Only real team I've seen him in. Two words. GARY ABLETT

[johnnytheboy1]

Gone for some couple of Unique picks in this team Houli being one but the problem is that forward line i would get rid of Rohan
Apart from Houli the defence has been strengthen as there is only one rookie on the field.
Mids: Strong here.Rockliff & Cotchin need to ave 110 or more.
Rucks: Standard with some risk you wouldn't want both of these to go down early.
Fwds: This is your weakest line by far you should have 3 premiums here and you only have 2 spend some of the money and upgrade Parker,Rohan or Boyd or get rid of all of themm and bring in Garlett,Cark and Franklin and downgrade nic nat to Lobbe or if you have enough money upgrade him to Leuey.

Overall: Team can be strengthen easily with the right moves. give it a 7/10
go to supercoachcoach.com.au and listen to the Preseason Podcast for advce from Marcus & Mark.

Nice spread of cash. Strong Mid and Ruck (apart from no GAJ) Solid Backs. Bit weak forward maybe?
My only other concern is u may have to upgrade all of Suckling,Swallow,Houli,Thomas,Sandilands and Parker. Which of these are u planning on being keepers?

well i think Swallow and Parker will have breakout years and be keepers

Suckling and Houli have been keepers in the past why would i need to upgrade Houli? Suckling might not fire like we all hope

Sandi i will prob upgrade him yes

Thomas wont cost much to upgrade at all hopefully maybe even bench cover

Forwards are weak as that's where i'm generating cash along with mid rookies

[Ringo]

Only issue I see KB and you are probably aware if wanting to generate cash in forawrd I would only have one of Hogan or Boyd and use a cheaper rookie maybe Garlett if he plays. Impey is another to watch preseason

Like your PODs in OParker, Houli, Swallow (he is in my team as well)

Good luck

[kilbluff1985]

Cheers Ringo

yeah will choose the cheaper rookie options if named round 1

[kilbluff1985]

Really like this one

[GCSkiwi]

It's a well balanced team KB, my big question mark hangs over defence in terms of how many of your D1-4 will become top 6 keepers? SDT good chance but other than that I'm not sure any will feature... Strong pack with Bartel, McVeigh, Walker, Mitchell, Hanley, Simpson, even Heater, Hodge, Ibbo +Birchall if they stay fit... Huge amount of competition in that line. Swallow maybe in for a breakout year ok but Hibberd and Houli?

Midfiled near identical to mine

Rucks - has NicNat joined full training with the Weagles? Attractive opening draw but I'm going with Goldy + Sandi - origianlly had NicNat but then didn't like the idea of having 2 ruckmen with dodgy legs...

Forward - what's your thinking on Parker? I would be very tempted to have buddy in place of Parker, and that would be a very attractive forward line... If you don't have the cash maybe DG Boyd?

Nic Nat unfit averaged 96. This year he is already better positioned. If he plays bad he will average 105. If fully fit he will go 120+ ave. SO you choose if you want to go on without him. Either way he is wayyyyyy undervalued!

[GCSkiwi]

Yeah but has he even joined full training yet? I'm not saying he's not value, I'm saying that if I'm shelling out that much I'm happy to strect a little more to get a player I'm more confident in... If he's in full training he definitely comes back on my radar...

[Jay]

Hey man, would probably reconsider the Bachar Houli pick. Just think there are better options around that price, would consider Pearce Hanley or try and get up to Mcveigh...

I know rookies will change during NAB, but would steer clear of Tom Boyd. Will be a hell of a player but is too pricey for a key
position FWD rookie, its a no from me.

[kilbluff1985]

very happy

not worried about the byes

[tor01doc]

Nice and different but I couldn't do it.

I would need at least a few of

Ablett
Mitchell
McVeigh
Thomas
KK
Sandi
Dusty
Buddy.

Either for $$$ and therefore to counter the exorbitant price of rookies this year or as keepers which means saving trades laters.

[kilbluff1985]

Cheers Doc

had Martin for ages but don't like him playing in defense

Mitchell i'm going to wait and get him for around 500k

Guts telling my not to start GAJ don't know why just a few things

Buddy same as GAJ

Sandi same again
