Not sure if its safe to have sandi and hmac both as my primary rucks, and I'm still debating whether i keep grigg or choose a cheaper option. I am also split on simpson and henderson! All opinions are welcome and appreciated! Cheers guys

Mr.Craig

Looks like an interesting team. I'd pick Simpson over over Henderson. While I liked Hendo's work last year it concerns me a little that he was shopped around by the Crows in the offseason. What will his mindset be like this year? What does it say about how the Crows view him? They are questions that may have positive answers but I don't want to be asking too many questions with someone I'm picking as a potential premium.

As for Grigg, it's a ballsy move and one I'd probably suggest more for AF than DT. It's even less desirable when you consider the deficiencies in your ruck and F6 position. I don't think you can trust Sandi and HMac in combination, no matter how positive the pre-season signs may be. Keep the one and upgrade the other. As for F6, I doubt very much you can rely on Kersten, Taylor and Honeychurch to hold down that spot. While Kersten seems to have pretty good JS potential I think his scoring is not going to be flash at all and I worry about the other two playing consistently. I'd put some money into turning Honeychurch into a Fasolo, Clark, Bock, Patton or Hogan - whoever turns out looking the best bet. :)
