Still no word on Downie, Warner or Bergman ?
Thankfully Downie and Warner will be announced tomorrow night, Bergman have to wait but I reckon he is most unlikely as Hartlett is backStill no word on Downie, Warner or Bergman ?

Yes he is
He's not a debutant, but he is a rookie.

Add Bergman and Sharp to the list if named as both look like they can score well.So it looks like the defender rooks will sort themselves with most people running Highmore and Kosi on the bench.
Mid and fwd rooks are where we have options!!
Mid:
Powell
Gulden
Berry
Bruhn
Downie
Jordan
Scott
McNeill
Fwd:
Brockman
Warner
Campbell
McDonald
Jones
Rowe
Personally I'm selecting green on and red on the bench due to a balance of scoring, J/S, Price and DPP, but man it's a hard choice!
One advantage I do have is that it looks like I will go into lockout with $230K on the bench as I just see better value in the guys I have rather than moving a $400k guy to a $600K guys.
This gives me a heap of flexibility over the next 2 weeks to fix my team, Eg, Atkins and Dow stink it up for two weeks, if I go down to a rook with one, I have $400k to throw on top of the other!!
I'm entering the year with with what I think are 10/11 keepers, so it becomes 11/12 very quickly!!
Powell is a Fantasy scoring machine .....IMO cut elsewhere, he'll have great JS as wellCall me crazy but I’m leaving out Tom Powell for the moment
You crazyCall me crazy but I’m leaving out Tom Powell for the moment
Basically I've decided Scott and Jordan are on my bench.Add Bergman and Sharp to the list if named as both look like they can score well.
Extremely tricky selecting the right balance on JS/scoring/price this year. Interesting you’ve left out Campbell, Downie and Bruhn.. while they’re a little more expensive they certainly have better scoring potential and JS than most of the others.
Unpopular opinion: I’m very close to putting a line through H Jones. The price is right but don’t think the scoring potential is there at all. There appears to be better options.
