Solid. Like Shiel.
Concerned about backline though, 1 too many rookies for me personally in that line.

Bit light in the forwards/backs and overly stacked in the mids imo. Reckon the structure you should be going for is something like 4/0/4, 4/1/6, 2/0/1, 4/0/4 if possible.

Yep I had yeo at d4 but changed him to get shiel, if there are not enough defence rookies that show themselves in nab cup yeo will come back in to d4 and shiel will go back to crouch which is what I had originally.

I agree, I like that structure and depending on rookies that show up in nab cup will more than likely end up as my structure. Yeo as d4 and devon smith as f4 is what I'm thinking about currently

Could still work out if the rookies present themselves in the forwards and backline. A few lowish mid-pricers/premium priced rookies can also change the balance if they present themselves as better scoring alternatives than the lower priced rookies (Simpkin, Dea, Mills etc etc). That midfield is bloody nice though

Since this version.
I've:
Yeo --> Laird
Francis --> Bartel
Bennell --> Cockatoo
Rice --> M.Brown(WCE)[rookies don't really matter at this point but i think Brown will play more games therefore making more $money$]
Thoughts. I've strenghened the backline as suggested. Forwardline has taken a bit of a hit but.
looking at it now. I reckon those changes have made the team better.

MID: Gaz,Pendles,Danger,Shiel,Rocky,Gray and Libba too stacked?
I downgraded blitz for an extra mid.. Bad idea?

Sorry. forgot who Blitz is.
Will have to see forward line as the 2 often are linked.

Safer bet with Laird for sure, Jimmy is cheep and well worth it I recon what is he 470k? Not sure on Cockatoo. The no sub vest makes him more appealing, maybe a wait and see prospect ?

Like the hannebery pick, should be a nice POD. Structure looks good but not a fan of Greene but if you think he will average enough to be a forward keeper, then I'd back him in.

Solid team, Docherty could be a real good pick, however I'd be asking Carlton supporters on that one.

Thanks for the feedback, it was either him or Barlow and I feel he has more upside, and judging by this
he should be in for a spike again, hoping so anywaySent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

No. I only have 1 rookie space in my midfield. except you've got an extra premo than me. I have 2 mid-pricers but i don't think that you've overdone it in the midfield.

Libba killed it in the dogs intra club, ablett didn't play in the Suns intra club and will miss nab 1 with a bit of a foot injury.

Article says he is training as an on-baller and making great strides on-ball due to Dangerfields advice.

agreed. 4 def rookies, 5/6 mid rookies and 5 fwd rookies seems to be a good balance this year, for me so far anyway haha.
Haha I have the exact same midfield.
I've rolled with 5 fwd rookies as well, but of course that can change when the rookies present themselves.
I have Lobbe in ruck instead of Martin, which allows me a 4th decent defender.
"ex-Lion James Aish has found a new gear in his first pre-season with the Pies while shadowing skipper Scott Pendlebury."
I think that rules him out for me.
Reading the article he's been mentored by Black while at the Lions, shadowing Pendlbury at Collingwood and calls up Ablett for tips... The guy's going to win 5 brownlows!
