Opinions?

crap! don't expect you'll be in the top 200,000

Hi Pearman. DOP is this the pear you've talked about before?

anyway, pretty solid team first up.

backs: i think you are missing a back. Otherwise pretty strong.

mids: strong as well. keep an eye on wells during the nab cup.

rucks: pretty good. Kreuz is set to go up forward for a bit each game. Hille is looking good this preseason and is an outside chance to start round 1. Still risky coming off a LTI.

forwards: pretty good. Brown usually starts the year off slowly then hits his stride. Murphy a bit injury prone but won't cope the hardest defender anymore. waite in the same boat as hille.

hope that helps.

Kennelly is my other back, my bad i for got to put that one in. I am a bit iffy on david hille yet confident on jarrad waite returning due to what carlton have released about his progress. Thankyou for the heads up on jonno bown that might sway my decision, and as for wellsy i know its a risk but I think that he could be so darn good and i dont want to miss out on that. Yes I am the infamous Pear.

Gillbee was a real thorn in my side last year and so was Raines who cost me an early trade

I dont think Scully or tapscott will start, I recon Trengove will as he has been battle hardened in the SANFL, and nearly single handedly cost my team the Bays a GF berth!
