Looks like there are enough forward rookies to run with four of them. Not sure if Taylor and one of Cavarra or Brander give me much confidence with on field scoring though.

Was just thinking the exact same thing. 5 out of my 8 forwards are rookies. And 3 of them will be on the field.
I don't know if this is going in too light but it really feels this way. Thinking whether I should change one of them to a mid-pricer...nah screw it...lets see the teams first...

Taylor looked very good in M2, hopefully he can translate that to the season proper and pump out an average of at least 60. I like Brander as an on field prospect but am concerned that the back rookies wont be there and I'll have to move him back there. Don't think you can start Budarick or King on field who I don't even have in my team atm. That Port fella looked good for around 40 per game max and probably goes when Dixon comes back.

Anyone rate Coleman as a chance to get a game? He was in my team as a placeholder all summer because I thought he looked class in junior highlights, and was then not seen in the Marsh. Suddenly appears on the extended bench for round 1. At his price (117k) with m/f swing I'm keen again.

Extremely unlikely.

Brisbane Coleman?

Not a chance IMO. Just emergency cover. I think it's not impossible that we'll see him this year but it won't be immediately.
