Structuring of side continues to rely on # of cheap rookies.
Currently 12 premiums and debating Merrett @ M4 or Rowell/Cripps to save some money.
Defender - D5-8 - L Young Cox Ling Kozzi
Mids - M7-11 - Berry, Downie, Gulden, Smith and Brockman
Forwards F5-8 Cahill Rowe Spicer and Waterman
Thoughts on these rookies, unrealistic or not?
Don't have Dow, Daniher currently, although a downgrade of Merrett would only see one of these come in.

You don’t think Highmore makes it for Round 1?
I’m hoping that one of Jones or Highmore gets selected.
Your other selections all look like they have a reasonable chance of being selected I think. Of the forwards there may other choices also but not sure how well they will score. E.g Jones from the Bombers.

Rookie Stocktake
This season we have very little info to use with regards to which rookies are most likely to play round 1. We obviously have just one game for each team during the AAMI Community Series.
I believe the rookie priced players priced $207,300 and below that are most likely to play round 1 are the players who played at least 50% TOG in their Community Series match. So here is a list below which shows their position, price and their SC score in brackets. I will add to the list in separate posts as the weekend progresses.
DEF
N Cox $175,800 (32)
J Koschitzke $123,900 (130)
T Highmore $117,300 (47)
DEF/MID
L Young $202,000 (50)
MID
T Powell $153,300 (57)
T Downie $117,300 (40)
L Bramble $102,400 (29)
MID/FWD
P Dow $202,400 (54)
T Brockman $117,300 (80)
FWD
Ruscoe $206,800 (26)
C Nash $193,400 (64)
Bosenavulagi $175,500 (38)
N Cahill $161,200 (52)
O Henry $135,300 (7)
H Jones $123,900 (43)
RUC
P Hunter $102,400 (77)

With Trew being named as on bench for today’s game.. does anyone think that maybe the penny has dropped that we always get smashed at the coal face.. any chance he can stay in the team?

He's been pretty impressive so far apparently. Looking forward to seeing him get his shot today. Has a big point to prove to every team that passed on him, nice clean hands and uses the ball well... Importantly he wins his own ball.
I reckon we got a real steal. Wouldn't surprise me to see him get games this year.
Looking forward to seeing what Winder can add to the mix as well.

Actually wasn't too far off...

Hawthorn youngster Jacob Koschitzke has put his name firmly in the mix for a Round 1 debut.
Koschitzke, 20, kicked six goals in the Hawks’ 39-point win over North Melbourne in the AAMI Community Series at Arden Street on Saturday.
The third-year Hawk is the cousin of 200-game Saint Justin and has been switched forward ahead of the 2021 season after being drafted as a defender.
“Jacob played an important role for us last week against the Bulldogs but didn’t score a goal, today he kicked six and could have kicked a couple of others,” Hawthorn coach Alastair Clarkson said post-game.
“It’s hard not to pick him when he has kicked six goals but we will wait and look at what the balance of the side is and look at what Essendon do with the balance of their side.
“Kicking six goals in the last trial game doesn’t hurt, you are putting your hand up for selection.”
