Only one place I can see to use it, and that would make it:

TU - Bont, Parker, Cripps
TD - Danger, Kelly, Brodie

Yeah, Libba is giving me some structural issues. Had also been considering ditching him for Kelly.

EDIT: Still worried about Fogarty, but can't find a better option at this stage with the available final cash.

Here is that version:

Thumbs up = Better
Thumbs down = Worse

Comment => where am I going wrong...

Yeah looks good. I am thinking of putting Garlett in my side somewhere if named tomorrow, so I'd say put him in instead of Fogarty if looking for an option, gives you dpp.

Is McLean really going to get that time in midfield to score well? His scoring shots up last year when Jong went down. With everyone fit except Wallis I just can't predict the quagmire there. I'd prefer Dahl in that case because of his track record. Even JJ, becoming a forward flanker too? Can tell Bevo is cut from the same cloth as Clarko.

Depends on what your structure looks like, first option gives you more premiums but having Danger is important especially as a captain choice.

Alright here's my team at this stage then, but still open to a few changes.

I gotta say as well I'm not sold on Barry, Port have had a lot of new players come into that side so not sure they'll have room for him as well with Rocky Watts and Motlop playing. Any reason everyone else seems to have him? I just put him there to play around with money and while teams were named.

I hear you. I feel that way too, but rookies are just guesses until teams are named. Important to try predict JS, but difficult

Good team.
I think upgrade Crouch to Danger, or just keep the cash to get Danger later

He's a mature-aged recruit who's played every JLT game. They must view that he's needed so if he's named he's a lock.

I think your side has too many expensive rookies, I'd get rid of one or both of Coffield/Stephenson personally. The first seems to have good job security but both don't seem to score well at all.

Yep, and Garlett did have injury issues during JLT but doesn't appear to be serious. So if named, he's in my team.

I have almost exactly the same structure, your premium mids are mostly different, but not arguably better or worse, looks good to me unsurprisingly

Maybe just use it to get Danger later?

He has had an interupted pre-seaon with a shoulder injury, he's a no for me if enough obviously fit ones are named

If going Danger-less then not committing the money to the strategy just means you're left behind those that do if it works out. If it doesn't work out, he's going to be too expensive anyway, you'll have to go with it until you can get him as an upgrade target.
