Non GWS and Syd Midfield Rooks

Ricochet · March 25, 2012, 06:46:01 PM

Now that GWS and Sydney have played we are left with guys like Magner, Ledger, 5fer, Couch, Kerridge, Stevens, C.Smith, etc.
What do you guys think of them and who do u prefer?
I have two spots to fill in my midfield.

magner big yes. The 2nd isnt as easy to choose. Ledger might be a bit expensive when you compare him to other rookie price players. Id say neale or smith might be the way to go.

You'd have to figure that Magner's the best pick if he plays, based on both his price and potential. After that I'm thinking Ledger, he was more or less the Sainters' best player during the NAB. Think they need someone like him in their midfield.

Couch'd have to be a big no at this stage. Kerridge will be useful if named, as will Smith and Stevens, although I'm not convinced either of them will have a permanent spot in their clubs' best 22.

Ledger to me is in the same boat as cogs. Why pay more for somebody who can score as good or better (in cogs case, early days though). Also Is he going to get in starting line-up or will he start as a sub. There is risk that his JS is not as good as other options.

Magner & Pfeiffer (or maybe Ledger)

Im keeping Neale

Ricochet · March 26, 2012, 01:18:35 PM

My thoughts are...
Obviously Magner is #1 of this lot.
and I'm thinking that Neale and Pfiefer are fighting out #2.
my only concern for Neale is the dreaded vest
Smith and Ledger scored well throughout NAB but their JS is a bit of a concern and if they do play they are probably ideal for the vest.
Kerridge might find it hard in an improving Crows side
Couch hasn't been elevated yet.
I really like Stevens but again... JS

This is why i stacked up on GWS rooks. Most of those guys you named are massive chances at multiple vests.
