Anyone ridding the Higgins train? Or is he still on peoples never again lists? I know he has caused us a hell of a lot of grief over the years, but do you think a new club and solid pre season will do him any good?

last year was the year

at his price, you need him to step up to 90+ for a premo, and imo he's not capable of that
will probably score around 87, and there's other options personally

Fair call mate! I just wanted someone different to the standard ibbo selection everyone seems to be leaning towards. Do you think it is too much risk having both Clancee Pearce and ibbo in the back line?

Or another option could be k kolo from Suns??

be VERY weary of the lack of Dawson in the Freo side (because Ibbo might take that role)

some people have tipped KKolo for a big year (with Ceski tacking some attention)

then for some really left field picks are Taylor, Jacobs and Bewick
Bewick had a solid NAB (77 off 74 TOG) and could be worth a shot as a consistent D5
Jacobs did similar to Bewick, but be wary of the vestings (that he's had previously), but has the perk of being 100k cheaper
Taylor might improve with Enright being phased (and can get the odd super game [150+ vs Freo last year])

Ibbo will take 3rd tall. Port will stretch us though with Lobbe, Schulz, Westhoff

Thanks all for your feedback! May consider Bewick, need to scrounge up a little extra to get him now! Cheers guys!
