it's not to bad mate structure is sound but i wouldn't go near Hurn or Watts

Goddard will be mid only also

no real issues though at this stage

Def: Out of all those i wouldn't Start Watts or Scharenberg. From what i have read on big footy Tom Langdon has just a good chance of getting into the magpies team.Goddard May be only Midfielder in Supercoach this year so look at Mcveigh as a Replacement if he has DPP.
Mids: Solid Midfield hopefully Griffen can cope with the pressure of being captain.
Rucks: Perfect i think sandilands wiill be a bargain
Fwds: Strong Here too.

The only problem with this team is the defence otherwise it is great i give it a 8/10

Getting the negative vibes about Watts, was thinking Roos would make a new man out of him but point taken.
n/b Scharenburg not in team. Only heard about Griffen (captain) 3 hours ago. Thanks for info on Goddard guys.

You can't polish a turd. Not even Roos can make Watts grow a set of balls. Apart from him I love it

Team changes reflecting increase in prices for Hogan and Jack Martin that may now have some teams over budget
Comments welcome

Nice team there mate if it fits under cap when it is announced.

Def: 2 players returning from injury in Waters and Suckling so need to watch
Mids: No issues
Rucks: Set and forget if Sandi is injury free
Fwds: Sound just a watch on Bock been trying to get some info on his pre-season to see how he is going but have not so maybe there is something still there so a watch on him as well.

No comments on rookies as we will not know till round 1, But need to ensure you have playing rookies from Round 1 for maximum benefit.

Def: Agree with Ringo on Waters see how he goes during Pre-season
Mids: Strong
Rucks: 2 Strong rucks

Fwds:The only player i don't like in your team is Shaun Higgins too injury prone there has to be better options out there
I am surprised Luke Mcdonald is not in that team maybe he might cost too much compared with Langdon. 7.5/10
