Hey all, back for another crack this year.

Not gonna stuff around with rucks, spent the last 2 years chasing my tail and run out of trades too early.

Guns n rooks, with a fair bit of cash parked with the on field rooks.

Would appreciate honest assessments as I've not really studied much.

Can't have Laird starting in the midfield. Too light in the mids and way too heavy in defence. Need to chop a few defenders to bolster the mids.
I'd normally say exactly the same thing. But I just can't spot another mid I want!!!! Hell I even considered putting Treloar in who I definitely would have but for the pies EOS calamity. Perhaps Cogs...dunno really. The 11 keepers are my best estimates of top X in their position. If I could fit sidebum in I would. It might just have to be Cripps but I'm concerned about his shoulders. Am I worrying too much over nothing?

I'm guessing that you don't like rookies with only 3 on field.
A little bit of column A unknown rookies, smaller lists and chances are many got a run last year, but a lot of column B with lots of fallen premos al la brown, ziebeĺl et al, that are rookie priced. Just trying to avoid the failed rookie corrective trade without going with more than 3 mid pricers.

First build of a likely 50 odd. I need to find some links between fwd/mids and might be a little def heavy... View attachment 25445
I think you are too fwd premium heavy myself & too weak in the mids.

Danger - has had an injury interrupted preseason, think he is a better upgrade target than a starter.

Dunkley - who knows with Bevo as his coach & with such a loaded midfield the dogs have with Treloar now there also.

Martin - traditionally starts the season slow then builds.

Fwd premiums this season for mine are the hardest to pick, too many questions marks.

I think you should look at B Brown (260K) or maybe Impey (about 212K) in place of 1/2 of your fwd premiums & bolster your midfield with the cash saved.

I agree with your points in particular Bevo does worry me quite a lot. Every time I don't take Danger he bites me hard.... I will contemplate bolstering the mids based on practice matches. Thanks for the feedback.
