Dreamteam advice!

[Chubbals]

Hi,

I'm new to talking football and pretty new to dreamteam, i gave it a bit of a go last year, and i think i got some sort of idea what im doing, but im not really sure! I've read most of the threads, Tippaz you were awesome thanks.

Here's what i got



BACKS : C. Cornes, A. McLeod, A. Walker, D. Mundy, Raines, Bock, Kosi
(Hansen, is he playing? and X. Ellis)

CENTRES : S. Burgoyne, J. Sherman, M. Murphy, D. Pearce, M. Rischitelli,
R. Griffen (Gibbs and L. Thomas)

RUCKS : Cox, B. Hudson (Griffin and McEntee)

FORWARDS : B. Hall, B. Fevola, A. Embley, G. Ablett, Monfries, Nathan Brown (richmond) and Franklin (Edwards and Whyman)



Got only 7500 left, concerns with the ruck, and potentially the backs, too much 'potential' not enough points??


Any advice would be great!

Potential is the key to picking ANY low-mid priced players. You can never have too much potential.

If you're buying potential around the $300k mark you want to be sure that they will increase to around 100 average. Otherwise I think it's better to buy a cheaper player who will increase by more and spend the extra $ on upgrading to another gun.
You need to work on your ruck reserves unless I've missed something with McEntee

i basically just picked mcentee as a min wager,

luenbuerger, or however you spell it was in there before, but i need to find 50k somehwere! not sure who to downgrade, or who else is cheap and is a good chance to do as well

You have a few options...

1. Downgrade one of your young gun centres for a cheaper young gun centre
2. Downgrade the defender you think is least likely to improve by a lot for an absolute bargain. There's atleast one there.
3. Same as #2 axcept with a forward

Also, is Griffin injured? I could be wrong, just thought I heard somewhere most Adelaide ruckman were out for a while. Not sure which ones off the top of my head. Definitely not Hudson though, he's in my team.

swapped louenberger in for mcentee, so should have some decent ruck reserves. swapped mcleod for mcphee, not much of a downgrade, but hopefully mcphee gets some time in the centres, or on the wing.

also swapped pearce down for nathan jones, who hopefully hits his straps!
