Very solid and balanced team, with a couple of uniques. Mid perhaps a little underpowered compared to a few teams, you'd have to be banking that GAJ will go up front and Bennell will benefit a lot from that, not sure I'd take that risk myself... I don't see Bennell being a top 10 mid by years end. Cotchin and Barlow may well be up there but I would expect them to be lower end of top 10 or maybe just outside it. I think it's worth considering downgrading Bennell to a fallen prem such as Murphy or Daisy (The latter my preference) who should at least up their price a fair bit, if not become a keeper. Gives you a bit extra to turn Cotchin and Barlow into and of GAJ, Jelwood, Rocky, Griffen, Watson.

Good evenly spread team with a bit of a different midfield the only thing I would do at the moment is get rid of Dunstan and get in Garlett will give you about 15k more in the bank then sit on it till the rookies become clearer and possibly look at how many round 8 bye players in the mids cheers .

Nice Team with some good unique picks there should do well the only players i am not keen on are Robbie Gray & Jackson Paine
Def: Solid i wouldn't change much here until after the nab cup matches.
Mids: You have gone for 2 uniques here probably would only keep one if any. If you are going to go for a docker go with Fyfe. Bennell could be a good POD.
Rucks: Standard
Fwds:Better off with either Zorko or Pavlich than Robbie Gray.With Jackson Paine you will need to see how he goes in the Pre-season. 7.5/10

like that you are going unique

def: I have 5 of your 6 backs ... i would love to start 2 rookies here and if KK shows some form he will come in my team but for now just starting 1

mid: i am also at this stage starting one of ablett/pendles currently ablett .. michael barlow is a gun midfielder very consistent i like the pick ... not minding cotch he is looked after in sc ... i cant like bennell although he is a star i just think he is the type of player who will definitely be targeted by the opposition as he can break the lines and use his elite foot skills however he could break out ... i really would like aish but cannot have them all (currently have tyson in his place but could be aish yet)

rucks same

fwd have same first 3 ... I myself am a bg robbie gray fan as a footballer but i dont think he is fantasy relevant this year mate especially at that awkward price where if you look for players around him i believe they will outscore him ... i wouldnt be picking paine at all

not a bad unique side though

Nice unique team here

Def: Solid - Nice mix and settle on rookies after pre-season
Mids: Solid again - Bennell could be a sound POD and Cotchin and Barlow are conisitent.
Rucks; Standard
Fwds:  Issues with Gray have been raised and whilst I think is a sound pick at the awkward price as I do not see much of an upside with him. Also need to be wary of him as he has not played all games in a season since he came into AFL

Need to also watch rookies who will play Round 1 Paine will be vying with Lewis and McGuanne for one spot and Aish will be vying with Mayes and Beams for possibly 2 spots at Brisbane for example.
