you should be on the train, no doubt parker top 8, but jpk just as likely top3

Are people actually that convinced Parker will go top 8? I'd lock in Gaz, Pendles, Rocky, Fyfe, Jelwood. Then there's Sloane, JPK, Beams, Barlow, Ward, Danger, Sidebum, Heppell, Watson, Priddis who IMO could all push for a spot in the top 8 or 10. Might be forgetting a couple of players. And FWIW I'd go with JPK, Beams, Sloane/Barlow to get the last 3 spots of that lot.

I reckon Parker can push 120, don't think tag will destroy him. He will handle it, and still think Hannerz will get it first

Parker isn't easily taggable. If your tag in the mids is doing a good job the swans just shove him up forward and he goes mental.

Was tagged pretty convincingly in the GF, although admittedly there wasn't much of an option to send him forward when the ball was hardly sighted in that half of the ground.

Very close to making the switch, Parker has just continued from where he left off in 2014. He's becoming very hard to ignore.

I'm not starting either, but with Parker's price you can more or less guarantee he aint gonna lose you any cash

Wouldn't be surprised if most top teams have both sooner or later

I won't be making the switch, still see JPK a better scorer.

Even after today's game, Parker scored 108 and JPK 97.. Not much difference considering how much Parker dominated.

Only dent on Parker is his efficiency, went at 55% today and 57% last week.

True, although Parker averaged 120 from round 14-23 & 120 in the finals. That's quite a hot streak.

I feel like I'm the only one not considering Parker for my starting team. Like, I think he could be a great option, but could also just stay at around the same average as last year.

I'd never consider him... JPK all the way.

Parker's in for GAJ right now, I'm not even mad.

Could do a lot worse than have a mid who averages 108.
