Title: 2013 Player Profile: Chris Knights

Chris Knights (Richmond Tigers)

Position: M/F

Price: $233,300 (FanPlanner)

2011 Games: 16

2012 Games: 5

2011 Average: 75.8

2012 Average: 49.4

2012 Tons: -

Big games: Richmond (80)

Summary:
Very likely to leave the crows at the end of the season as a restricted free agent, Chris Knights has fallen out of favour at the crows. Averaging as high as 87.7 in the past, Knightsy would be a steal if he relocates to another team and manages to raise his average to around this mark once again. Top score of the season was 80 against his likely new team, the Tigers, however his average has been severely affected by a sub-affected score of 16.

Verdict:
Likely to be a lock for me in the forward line should he transfer across to a team like the Tigers, Very underpriced and should be able to regain an average of at least 75, which for his price, is good enough for me.

Predicted 2013 average: 80


*EDIT: Has signed with the Richmond Tigers for next year.*

If he goes to the Tigers he will likely become a feature in my team if he also grows a mullet he will be a lock.

Yep, lock if he goes to the Tiges and stays under 250k when the official prices are released.

Was actually very good in the SANFL and chalked up big numbers while he was there so a lock for me if he heads to Richmond.

For that price he'll be in my side if he ends up at the Tigers!

Will definitely be cheap enough to have a SERIOUS look at. Could be one of the bargains of 2013.

Just remember why he was on the outer at Adelaide, he's inconsistant and hasn't played great footy for over two years, unless he does a Mullet he is a ricky pick is Fantasy

Price is handy, but he has never been the greatest scorer, although promised plenty.  Will wait and see where he ends up and what his role will be before considering.

Not for me; already got two mid-pricers in Gray and LeCras and don't want another one.

yeah i'm still trying to decide how many mid-pricers i want... as others have said, this season might be the one to stack the fwds with mid pricers and then load up on premo's in defence/midfield...

i guess it'll depend on who gets/loses DPP next year-if people like rocky and fyfe are DPP then i wont be getting to many mid priced fwds, but if they don't get DPP, that's when knightsy comes into play ;)

Im going to go into the season with fewer forward premiums than normal because i want to load up down back. He looks like a good pick, will depend how good the rookies forwards are looking this year.

The choice is looking like a premo and a rokoie like mayes or going gray and knights.

Locked for me if he starts round 1.

In 2009 he went from a midfielder to a dangerous hard-working small forward and kicked 43 goals for the season and was looking like a star of the future. In 2010 he had foot,abdominal and hamstring injuries and only played 5 games .. hasnt been the same since. Now he has gone to the Tiges maybe this is what he needs to bounce back. With a full injury free preseason he could be a great pick for 2012 .. ill be keeping an eye on him.
