Thoughts

Here is my current team which I will be sitting on till after NAB Cup (HaHa).



Bye Structure  10/11/9

Have added protection in Rucks with Longer. Comfortable with structure as I see 13 definite keeper and another 4 who may become keepers.  With 2 trdaes per week can afford some risks as well

Looking solid Ringo. Beamsy at M7!! is your confidence in him growing?

Back line is very strong although I'd try to fit fuller in somewhere. Midfield is awesome, one of the best I've seen. Rucks are ok but having 2on the field who are coming back from injury might be a bit risky, maybe consider Lobbe over Nicnat to be safer. Forwards- Danger,Martin and Zorko are good picks but Darling and Clark are the weak point. You can get a much better combo for that money ( Rioli and Fasolo for example)
8.5/10

Like your backs adcock could be a POD this year haven't seen him in many teams.

Sloane is an interesting pick also that could pay off, Polec , gordon & Ellis i don't think are in the teams best 22.
Lmpey never heard of him from port don't think he will get much game time either.
Overall nice side i guess the Nab cup will sort out the rookies nice first try in DT lol

[Ringo]

In SC I tried to have a couple of POD so as to not have all similar teams and brought that across to DT. Think with sole captaincy Adcock will step up a little especially with Hanley spending more time in the middle.

Looking solid Ringo. Beamsy at M7!! is your confidence in him growing?
Beams looked really good at training this week threw himself into the simulation training.  Will monitor in NAB Challenge as I am still not sure who will play out of Aish or Beams.

I will be monitoring Nat as well during NAB cup but he is training well although managed but options exist.  Longer is also on bench as well.

Darling is in there as a possible stepping stone or keeper due to Eagles early draw and may explode.

Impey is the standout in training at Port so may press for a game but will monitor. As with all rookies suitable alternatives exist. Ellis I think will play at Eagles from reports coming out.
