Hey guys, changed around a few things lately, I've tried to do my best at getting regular players into my backs and forwards to avoid donuts from rookies, while trying to keep my rucks and mids relatively strong. Only worry for me at the moment is gary rohan due to his scoring history, however with an injury free pre season under his belt im willing to take the risk as I am confident that he is in the swans 22 on a HFF and should improve at least to 50 haha. Cheers fellas, advice and thoughts would be appreciated :)

Hi bud, here's my take on your team:

DEF: Strong.
MID: Strong, but also the possibility of a donut: Polec/Ellis (Dunstan, O'Rourke)
RUCK: Good.
FWD: Good.

I really like your team, time will tell on the rookies. 8/10.
Best of luck!

All looks good great to see 2 good rucks just have to make sure Nic Nat is 100% fit

Just a couple of quick notes.

Defenders - Battersby is an Adelaide rookie, so will need to be upgraded to play rnd1
In the mids - Beams is a must have.
Rucks - If you are banking on a ruck swan I think Derickx is the pick
Fwds - Love him, but I dont see Rohan being a massive scorer and he is going to be a vest candidate early

Only a few minor changes but hows it look, managed to get gazza back into the team, decided to free up cash by just getting a rookie priced r4 as I doubt 2 will be named anyway. I know rohans scoring ability isn't overly great and he is a sub risk but all I want from him is games and a 50 average and id be happy, as long as he is playing im happy, thoughts fellas???

Just a comment not a real fan of your midfield structure with 4 rookies required each week.  May pay off but a great risk. I would look at downgrading one of Griffen or Rockliff to beams and upgrading another to Thomas if you can afford, Would look more settled. Go with gut in this instance though

probably replace Battersby who is still on Crows rookie list with another rookie based on preseason form.
