@Senator and everyone else

There's another [good] SC site out there that has this wonderful thing:

Has more stats than you can poke a stick at

@BigRon81
Good looking side
Lewis solid pod
Buddy would be my only query does like to kick a bag against essendon but managed through pre season. A chance he will drop money at some stage and maybe rested during season

Rd 1 will sort the rooks hopefully

Chancing boak and duncan to go to next level and swan and griff to regain old form.
Feel free to comment good or bad

It's nice to see some different names in the backline, but I don't know that Suckling has shown any reason that he'd increase on his output last year. Can go huge, but has too many quiet games for me.
Like your mids, Duncan is ballsy - not sure that it will pay off but good luck to you.
Bennell is another risky but interesting option...if I was going to do anything, I'd use some of your leftover on upgrading him or Suckling.

Mine (as with all, rookies TBA)
B: Shaw, Gibson, Newnes, Lumumba, Dalgleish, Hamling, McIntosh, Saad
M: Pendles, Fyfe, Beams, Sidebottom, Cripps, Anderson, Heney, Ellis-Yolmen, Vandenberg (if promoted), Freeman, Miller
R: Goldy, NicNat, O'Brien
F: Deledio, Bartel, Martin, Swan, Bontempelli, Clark, Hogan, Daniel
$10k left.

I don't like the forward rookies, hence loading up with both Swan and Bont.

Salem is a gun, could easily start as your 5th/6th fwd with Clark. Like the team though. Sidebottom interesting POD, wouldn't think he'd be owned by too many.

Defence a bit different. Love the Bennell pick, very sad I can't squeeze him into my own team atm. Some POD's in the middle too, risky but you can't get anywhere with no risks.

The theory on suckling is with frawley coming in gibbo and suckling will get free more and they do like to use suckling coming out of the backline. I agree his scoring history isn't great though.

Should say i don't think he will be a keeper will wait to see who stands up in the backline

Yeah, fair enough. I think if there's a line to take a punt on this year it's definitely the backline given that a player who even averages 80 probably won't be bleeding to many points against the top scorers on that line.

@Midge
Nice side not sold on lumumba gibbo or bonts but gotta risk it somewhere

Steel and Swan will be top notch this year imo

If named I might swap Bont into the mids and oust Cripps.
