Each year you hear people talking about the number of Elites, Premiums and Keepers they have, that their team is now 'finished' or 'complete' - even though they have 4 trades left and a midpriced Spud stinking it up at D6/F6.

Obviously the strongest team possible is the one that will score the most points from now onward, and as we lack a crystal ball (except for when we get to review Agent Orgnage's Hindsight Supercoach) the most easily claculated and measure of a teams strength would betheir combinedYear to Date Average (whereby thehighest possible score excluding Ableet, Watson and Sam Fisher would be 2568), and a more dynamic one might bebased on say the last 5/6 games average instead.

I'll kick off by showing my team which ranks just outsidethe top 500 and hopefully will bring me home strong as a spot in the top 400 would be my pb by far !!

My Team as at round 18 is

Def - Swallow (105.2), McVeigh (103.5), Bartel (102.4), Hanley (101.1), Simpson (97.9), Suckling (81.3) [Cutler (46.4), Bews (38.3)]

Mid - Rockliff (128.4), Pendlebury (125.9), Fyfe (120.5), Kennedy (118.9), Selwood (118.1), Beams (117), Liberatore (112.2), Sloane (110.8) [Acres (51.3), Honeychurch (45.3)]

Fwd - Parker (104.4), Harvey (111.2), Martin (101.6), Dangerfield (108.2), Zorko (96.2), Wingard (78.7) [McGovern (74.1), Kersten (51)]

Ruck - Sandilands (110.1), Minson (97.9) [Derickx (56.2), Currie (50.7)]



The averages of the 'Best 22' sum up to 2352, so with Rocky as my Captain I wouldscore 2480 per week if everyone hits their average, if you have 5 minutes spare let us know how your teams stacks up against the magical 2500 figure !!
