2013 SuperCoach Player Profile: Tom Young

[Jroo]

Tom Young
Price: $236,900 (Fan planner)
2012 Games: 7
2012 Ave: 44
2011 Games: 2
2011 Ave: 56
Position: Defender

Young is a promising young key defender who was traded from the Magpies to the Bulldogs in this years trade period. Young only played 7 games in the 2012, after playing 2 in 2011. Young is no SuperCoach star as yet, averaging 44 from his 7 games this year. 5 of his SuperCoach scores came under 50 and his highest score was 81 against GWS.

With the Bulldogs in a rebuilding phase, I figure Young will feature a lot next year in the Bulldogs backline. But being a key defender I would steer clear of Young in your SuperCoach side as he is in an awaked position. Young won’t be a high scorer and is too expensive to be selected as a rookie and not a good enough scorer to start on your field.


2013 Supercoach Point Average Prediction: 65-70

“We see him as a long-term prospect after he showed really promising signs at Collingwood over the past couple of seasons, particularly with his willingness to take the game on and his cleanness around the contest,” McCartney said.

Yer agree with you and thanks!

He's not a key position player. He's only 191 and he has played all his football on the half back flank. He has no job security so I would not even bother looking at him, even if he was rookie priced.
