Love the team can't fault any of the picks.
Need ruck cover though.

Great looking team Roti.   Over the past couple of weeks i have come around the alternative ruck strategy of no cover and trade if required.    Glad i am not facing you in the first round.

That's a great team not sure that your bye structure would be that good as I see 5/8 of your defenders with the same bye which is to hard to manage and 5/11 with the same round 12 bye in your midfields so that's just something to look out for.

In saying that I cant really fault your team looks pretty damn good to me.

would love you to rate my team.

I'm pretty happy with this team for the most part, my only concern is that i'd like to get guys like Newton and De Goey in. To do this do I downgrade a back? a ruck? And secondly is starting with one less premium worth it in this situation? Is my team going to be stronger for it? Thanks for you thoughts

One option would be Hurn > Macmillion
Steele > Newton
Miller > De Goey

You'd be better off downgrading Titch to rookie- (Salem/Krak/Karnie ect) and using the coin to upgrade wines/swallow to rolled- gold premos and the other rookies of choice that you mentioned IMO.
