People's thoughts on Waters from the Eagles? Very impressive last night & had a good nab3 also. Looks set to have a good year (injury permitting). $389k, think he could become a premium?

Would much rather take a similar risk on Malceski who is slightly cheaper. I'd say there is better reward with Malceski.

Waters seems more of a DT option. Not the best user of the football at times, especially by foot.

Who is willing to risk Golby?
Is anyone thinking of putting Courtenay Dempsey in their team or am I the only one loony enough to consider it at the moment? 
His body could snap in half at anytime but his last two outings have been very good and he looks very fit at the moment. I reckon the Bombers will look to give him the ball as much as possible running out of the backline.
They have North(H), Port (H) and Gold Coast (A) in their first three rounds, my head says no but my gut says do it...

Go for it. Hirdy says he is as fit as ever and the injury layoff has also developed him mentally as well. Hopefully this will lead to more game time and less brain farts.
Absolutely spot on post!

You would be stupid to not play rookies that are decent, and will play lots of games. I reckon Ellis and Morris fit into that category.
That said, I can't fit Ellis in my team, but if Marty Clarke doesn't get a spot, Ellis will get a run, giving me Deledio, Ellis and Morris.
I reckon it's worth it. By the time the bye comes around, both will be upgraded anyway.
Any suggestions on a rookie defender?
Already have Ellis, Morris and Spurr but needing another with $192k in the bank.
Yeh, cheap backline but I've stacked the mids and forwards.
Cheers.

What are people's thoughts on Bock?
I am not going for overall so don't care that he misses the first 2.
I think he has been forgotten a little bit, if it werent for his suspension do you think he'd be in a lot more teams?
Cheers

I think GC are looking at playing him forward more this year? May get a little cold standing around down there.
Hi all,
Im having a few issues with my defence. I currently have
GODDARD, SCOTLAND, DELEDIO, SHAW, BROUGHTON, ELLIS, BUGG
(combination of MORRIS/SPURR/DARLEY)
however I can remove either scotland/boughton and have the following
GODDARD, DELEDIO, SHAW, BROUGHTON/SCOTLAND, HARGRAVE, GOLBY, ELLIS (BUGG, MORRIS/SPURR/DARLEY)
Im really not sure if I should run with midpricers or stick with the premiums.
Thoughts...

Is this a shit backline?
Goddard, Shaw, Enright, Lake, Hargrave, Dempsey, Morris
Goddard, Shaw, Enright, Lake, Hargrave, Dempsey, Morris
Enright hasn't played a game in the pre season. I would look at Scotland or Deledio for that spot or Greg Broughton if the cash is tight. I reckon Enright will start scratchy then be a good pick up as an upgrade. Otherwise it looks pretty standard.

There is room for improvement. Personally I wouldn't have Lake, Hargrave and Dempsey. Keep Goddard, Shaw, Lake and Morris. The Cats will continue resting the older players this year, so Enright may miss a couple of extra games. Broughton and Birchall are probably better picks, and you'll save about $20k. Maybe dump dempsey to Bugg, Darley, Smedts, etc. and upgrade Hargrave to a premium if possible.

Yeah thanks mate
Goodard/Malceski/Shaw/Roberton/Clarke/Ellis/Mohr.. Smedts, Tahlia.
Thoughts?
65k in the bank.
