I'm expecting big things from him, firstly more games from Clarko, clarity regarding his role up forward. Will be the 3rd tall behind Gunston and Patton, thus having an easier run at it with the 2 foils taking the top defenders. He's had shoulder surgery in the off-season and has recently started full contact drills. He's quite a good mark and kicked 20 goals from 12 games. I can see a lot of improvement in him. Obviously in for now, but as we know with JLT coming up, things change very quickly.
On a side note, I heard, the Hawks are changing their game style slightly, any news on that?

Lots of PODs, lots of mid pricers, lots of high priced “rookies” and lots of Carlton players!
Personally I’d look closely at each player that ticks at least one of the above boxes and assess whether you’re really comfortable with them.
If you are, go for it, otherwise I’d try to head towards something that’s a bit more GnR.
One thing I would definitely try to do is get your bench rookies down to base price or very close to it. With very rare exceptions, you want your dollars on field scoring you points.
Personally I’d do this by upgrading mid pricers first, and then any potentially marginal premiums to top line ones. It also seems to repeat each year that a lot of the best cash generators are bottom priced rookies (or experienced players coming off injuries) rather than dearer rookies per se. [I’m actually not familiar with some of the names you’ve picked so maybe you’ve loaded up on the cheap returning players.]
Best of luck.

Thanks Darkie, early days yet with JLT to come, appreciate your thoughts. I normally try to avoid or minimise Blues players, but I think this is the year to pick them, until they lose both JLT games ?.
I'm happy to take Newnes in mids, Martin up forward. I have confidence that the tweaked game plan for this year will see the Blues run the ball out of defence easier via SPS, Newman, Simmo and Doc. I'm a bit cautious with Doc and his knee atm, will assess in due course. I know I need to bring in a Lloyd and Williams in defence, a Fyfe, Danger and Neale in mids, I don't want to rely too much on injured premiums returning at a discounted price.
