Swallow or Boyd?

[BoredSaint]

swallow is probably more unique so go him

[roo boys!]

yep Boyd is seemingly getting locked in by many teams, including me at the end of last season, now I am not so sure...

It was that All Australian last year ::). Before that he was ALWAYS unique >:(.

Swallow will probably be more unique so might still get on him!!! Will be hard to fit him in though :P.

I don't like Boyd's inconsistency, he can score 140 one week and then 70 the next, which is fine for total points score, but if you want to win your league games not so much. Go for Swallow :)

Both will most likely play a full season, both had solid averages last season and their end of season average scores are still improving.

The two advantages I see for Andrew Swallow are:
- Younger, generally more scope for natural improvement
- The general consensus is the Roos will continue to improve and the Dogs are on the decline. More wins equals a bigger share of the points.

The two advantages I see for Boyd are:
- Even though the Roos seem to be on the improve in 2011 the Bulldogs are still probably going to win more games, so they will be allocated more points as a team per game.
- He has a more proven history so there should be less risk for a lesser below par season.

It is a tough decision, Boyd a less risky proposition than Swallow, but Swallow arguably with more upside.

I would probably roll the dice and go with Swallow.

+1 couldnt agree more

[Fletch74]

I agree with Samm on this one. Swallow's upside potential is worth the risk.

[Justin Bieber]
