Team 2 for me.

Looks well balanced and is the only one that has a RUC/FWD link.

[Money Shot]

I'm a fan of 2 team two also although I do like the 5 mids in team 1.
Seedsman to a rookie and then Brayshaw to a 500k player?
Don't know if you have that much money but just an idea!

Would love your thoughts on my team.

[fasttrack13]

Probably team 1 for me... could go either way, theyre both pretty good...

Not sure on Belly in the ruck but apart from that it is a very good side.
In saying that it could pay off.

Yeah well I'm not sure on going with set-and-forget rucks atm, especially with the new ruck rules in place. And that also makes me hesitant on going with Leuey or Kreuz, so figured why not whack Belly in there haha. Plus, I really wanted Smith in my side :P

I toyed briefly with putting Bellchambers as R2 and it frees up a bit of a cash and makes another line stronger. Like the first 3 mids :) though Rocky is an upgrade target for me. Belly could make cash and be a stepping stone to a better ruck pick down the track...good strategy if going for league but will leak points against better R2s and teams if going for overall.

My main reason behind starting Rocky is that I don't want to be having to find the cash to bring in a guy priced at over 650k, whereas a guy like Jelwood will usually have a small period where he drops to around 550k, and most other super premos don't have the scoring power to get as expensive as Rocky
Yeah probably going for league more than overall, especially after my best mate knocked me out in the prelims last year!

Prefer team 1.  Like the 5 mid structure.   More points and wins.  can make arguments for GAJ and Rock dropping in price.  Just a risk management decision.   Personally start GAJ and hope Rocky drops a quick 100k.    Not a seedsman fan but valid choice. 
All the teams have good structures.   3 valid Ruc structures so just make a decision and gwyg.,
1. Ruc Prem,  luey/kruz rookie and DPP to Belly or a 
2. 2 Ruck Prems -  eg  goldy/nicnat or minson/nicnat to generate spare cash and trade to cover injuries.
3. 3 x midpricers    luey, kruz belly or lycett

Yeah if enough DEF rookies come up before round 1, I'll likely go with the structure of that T1 team, and try to fit in 5 premium mids. However that's probably unlikely haha

[Mr.Craig]

Not feeling your D6-D8 Dave.

[GoLions]

Not feeling your D6-D8 Dave.

Whoever gets named R1 goes there haha. I think Colq/Moore/Goddard adds up to almost 500k, so should be able to fit in any 3 rookies who get a gig round 1

[Mr.Craig]

Roger that.

[GoLions]

Kind of a backup plan in case no defender rookies come up. Can always downgrade guys like Malceski, Rocky, NicNat if I need more cash for better rookies in the mids

TEAM NAME: Dave's Legends
DEF: N. Malceski, H. Shaw, M. Hibberd, S. Hurn, P. Seedsman, B. Waters (M. Dick, H. Goddard)
MID: G. Ablett jnr, T. Rockliff, S. Pendlebury, J. Watson, N. van Berlo, N. Cockatoo, N. Freeman, A. Neal-Bullen (J. Steele, B. Stretch, K. Lambert)
RUC: T. Goldstein, N. Naitanui (R. O'Brien)
FWD: B. Deledio, B. Goddard, D. Swan, T. Membrey, M. Clark, J. Hogan (C. Daniel, N. Krakouer)
CASH LEFT: $13,000

Thoughts?

[Nige]

Good stuff Davos, that looks like a really solid backline.

The rest of the team is fine too, just gotta have the right rookies now I reckon.
