What are you thought's with this guy, his only $388K & can easily crack the ton.

My current Mids are - Abs, Swan, Pendles, Boyd, Michell with M6 either (McDonald & Zorko/Treloar DPP)

Perfect fit for my team, or spend the extra bit of cash, & go for Stants or Jewood? (obviously woul not be trading in Priddis this week, i would be upgrading Horsely)

If you can afford Stants, he's probably a better option, as is Jobe... I'd also put Scott Thompson ahead of him.
However, with a really good first 5 mids (HOW DID YOU MANAGE THAT?!) you can probably afford to go unique.
Might be a good move.

Personally, I like him but, since his return to getting tons, he hasn't played any tough teams yet to prove himself. That's the only risk...

I started of the year with Abs, Boyd & Swan, Mc Carthy  (rook, rook, rook & rook) - Mc Carthy > Mitchell then have culled cash cows along the way & upgraded to Pendles.

My Fwd line is set with - Robinson, Sidebottom, Danger, Buddy, Zaha, Martin & Chaps (Kennedy, Treloar & Zorks DPP)

Backs are abit week with - Goddard, Lids, Waters, Broughton, Lake, Hargrave & Clarke (Spurr/Darley)

I only need 1 more Mid & 1-2 backman & my team's pretty much right - 9 trades left $167K in the bank.

Only going for league, sitting 8 straight however i'm gone during the byes!

I'd look elsewhere. Not until I see some more good scores.

Like him as a player though.  ;)

I think he's possibly the best bargain upgrade of the year right now, and with a breakeven of 41 it would be a waste of money to wait until after Round 12 to get him. Scores of 108 and 113 in the last two games are enough to show me he is back in good form and fitness. He should score close enough to the top 6 mids to be a keeper, especially with teams choosing to put the hard tag on Kerr instead of Priddis more often this season than in 2011.

I've pretty much already locked in the Magner -> Priddis trade in the next trade period. Yes, I am an Eagles fan, but I don't think that is clouding my judgement here.

Bombers5

I can see why he's tempting but he'll very rarely put a big score (115+)
He's extremely consistent but I'd go for a Selwood, Thompson etc.

betch ya

yeah he's on the watchlist - traded him in last year for the pointy end of the season and helped me win the GF in my league, so he deserves to be looked at. mayb a late year luxury trade if he hits some good form again, worked last year.

he's definitley  Super Coach scorer, unfortiantly, he just doesn't score as high as the top DT scorers
