To be honest, I'm set with my team aside from rookies and possibly one other spot. Very happy so far, barring injury, so for mine its the rookies. Fuller, Georgiou, Honeychurch, Taylor (if he gets a crack), Hallahan, Morabito and the rest haha. Will be very interesting.

Lucky you, Rucks are giving me a headache and will pretty much determine my team structure along with rookies of course.

CBeams is a big one for me. And I want to have another look at Tyson and Michie

HotTiges

Obviously look at all 1st year rookies again or for a 1st time.

Check out Dahlhaus, can he back it up again?

Caddy perhaps..

Royal again..

David Swallow for sure

Definitely Dale Thomas as well..

Got to say i am starting to back track away from Caddy..i'll give him a few more games but i am starting to sense a mid price trap!
People talking up Jed Lamb but i am ify there aswell..Damn SC for forcing us to select these mid price headaches.

wanna see more of all the rookies..no-brainer there but Lobbe is one i would really like to see go big against a decent opponent, not sure as to whether or not i'll get my wish though.
Darling still interests me.
Swallow is fools gold until we know where he will be playing.
North mids improving/breaking out means nothing to me as even if one does go 110-115 its hard to choose (cunnington/Ziebell)
and the R8 bye makes them irrelevant for me with D.Beams locked.

Would like to see Big Charlie Dixon give something more.

Swallow will be playing mid won't he? From what they were saying the other night playing the Dons?

GC have said that they will give him more ''mid time'' from what i understand but he could still find himself at halfback at times i think,until he is a permanent fixture in their midfield i won't be selecting him,that's my understanding i could be wrong.
I suggest researching what Bluey McKenna has said on the issue.

Just don't understand the hype around Swallow. At 430k surely he needs to prove he is going to be a bigger scorer before we al jump on?

If he was 300-350k I would understand, but I would rather spend 40-60k more and get Hurn or Birchall

batt

NICNAT

Would save a lot of headaches in the ruck.

gotta take some risks if you want the top prize, Swallow fits all the criteria needed to be a breakout player - former number 1 draft pick, more midfield time, won't attract a tag and 4th year in the system.

Hard to argue with that, and although I understand all those valid reasons, I'm just not totally convinced he can push 95+. Hope he proves me wrong tho
