Unsure about Burton and Curnow otherwise it's a very solid team
Cheers. Id could upgrade them as Ive saved so much on no Danger and Lycett R2 but like the spare cash in the kitty.

I'm also a fan of having a bit of cash left over. Do you rate L McDonald? Similar price to Burto but with a bit more certainty over his role. A few Hawks track watchers have said Burto has been playing everywhere in match sims
 
DEF: Laird, Burton, Hanley, Mills, O'Shea, Doedee (Murray, Cumming)
MID: Danger, Martin, Oliver, Fyfe, Cripps, Coniglio, LDU, Brodie (Dow, T Kelly, Barry)
RUC: Gawn, NicNat (Amartey)
FWD: Heeney, De Goey, Petracca, Rayner, Higgins, Ahern (W Rioli, Jarrod Garlett)
$34k left

I'm tossing up between including Charlie Curnow instead of Petracca then going either T Mitchell or J Kelly for Oliver instead in the MID. Defence is pretty much locked for me barring any unforeseen changes during JLT. O'Shea with a bit of a question mark depending on who fills Doc's role.

Lots of conjecture over some of the F3/F4 & D3/D4 positions .....think most have their super premos locked

Time now for the JLT series .... where once again we’ll throw the magnets in the air & start again :'(

Havent gone that far into it yet. Will look at him though. The ball will ve down there alot for North

I'd say the forward line is the most interesting/biggest differentor this year.

DEF premos going down choices are limited (although the ~400-450k range of 2-4 year players is going to be fun to see play out)
MID value options are obvious, then its just making a danger/no danger call and filling out with premos.
RUC gawn is an auto lock, then its down to nic nat v kreuzer v ryder v jacobs v lycett
FWD though...
Heeney + Higgins seem a lock for most (F1 and F5/F6)

Then it's people picking between:
  • Christensen
  • Petracca
  • Lobb
  • Stringer
  • D.Smith
  • Buddy
  • Billings
  • Dollhouse
  • Mclean
  • Greene
  • Buddy
  • Barlow
  • Walters
  • Curnow
  • Gray
  • de Goey

And even more fringe choices like:
  • Lids
  • Wells
  • Daniher
  • Parish
  • Rioli
  • Wingard
  • JJK
  • Lynch (GCS)
  • Mundy
  • Papley
  • Caddy
  • Wallis
  • SPS

The person that nails F2-F4 from the above could be this years winner.

Any Feedback on this team would be much appreciated
Nice defence - Hanley at D3 is a risk, would prefer to see a McDonald/Wilson/Ellis there for more stability.

Midfield, i feel you have gone 1 too many Premos in the middle - drop one of Martin/Mitchell/Kelly to a rookie (Brodie/Lovell)

That then allows you to get rid of NN, who is not yet jumping and in serious doubt for Round 1 for a ruck who will play.

Also, with the left over money, you can upgrade Boak to a more secure player who will average 95+ (Barlow/Walters/Dixon etc)

defence is decent

midfield - Heeney and Dahl should be picked as forwards - get another big name in there, lacking scoring power in there.

Ruck - Hickey doesn't seem to be the first choice ruck for you guys, so get rid of him.

Fwd - drop Buddy, Gray and Crozier and move Heeney/Dahl up forward and get Christensen - downgrade McCartin to Venables/Rioli/Ryan/J Dawson

Hickey unlikely to play - coaches have him behind Longer.

cause fyfe is 100k more haha
You can always find cheaper players .... but you need some super reliable premiums and fallen ( injury) premiums .....remember you want 2-3 potential (C) options & 10-12 keepers in your side
