2019 Rookies

[brodiejay]

Had a busy weekend, so I didn't get a chance to watch much footy.

Interested to hear people's opinions on whether I should bring in Snelling or Langlands.

How did they both look?

Anyone have strong opinions about one over the other?

Cheers in advance legends!

Very even. Both have AFL ready physiques. Same BE & probs same JS with the likes of Steven & Hanners at STK & Hepp & Orazio at ESS looking to come back in. Langlands is $6,600 dearer but pending selections I reckon him purely cos of DPP & probs better JS imo if you had to split hairs.

Thanks Dezzy. That was pretty much the way I was leaning, and for those exact reasons. It also also seems like Snelling is playing a (less supercoach-dependable) pressure-forward role, and Langlands seems to be playing on-ball a bit more from what I could gather.

Like you said, probably just splitting hairs... but dpp and being picked on the wing gives Langlands the edge by a........ hair.

I'll show myself out.    ;D

Appreciate the sounding-board mate. Sometimes it's just good to hear someone else echo your thinking, so you know you're not making a foolish decision. Cheers.

So Langlands is the pick of the rookies this week?

because when he plays he puts up almost premo numbers.

If you got him as a downgrade option/cover in the last couple of rounds how is it relevant that he didn't play earlier in the season?

Because he's already injured in like his 3rd game?

That was the risk with picking him. Could have paid off big

[brodiejay]

Last Downgrade is for a bench defender and will only be required if there's a late out.

Any advice on who's likely to score more if needed as cover.... Changkuoth Jiath (Hawthorne), or Caleb Graham (Gold Coast)?

Graham has been named at fullback, and looked serviceable down back against the resting rucks (McInerney or Stef Martin for Brisbane), but I didn't see the Hawthorne game.

Doesn't really matter in the scheme of things obviously, but just wondered how Jiath looked in his first game?
