Wellingham potential

[turry17]

What do you guys think of Wellingham as a pick in your forward line. Averaged 82 in a collingwood side where the ball is dominated by other players, should slot straight into the team. Could bump his average up to 90

Apparently might be used as a tagger for WCE so I'd be cautious. Still probably presents value for money, but I won't be getting him.

+1 am hearing this as well, which is why people are thinking selwood might be a really good pick up

Yeh last reports are he might be used as a tagger so i would stay away.
Theres more thoughts on a thread from not long ago

Yeh too many better forward line options this year. Just can't see him being a 90+ player.

I think your best bet would be to wait and see how they're both used in the NAB cup.

The danger you run with either player during the season is that it's highly likely that both will be used as taggers at some point in time. The question you need to ask is how much time will each player spend in each role?

If I had to say either way, I'd argue that Selwood is a victim of his own success, and is far too valuable to WCE in that role. But it could easily go either way.

Think he may win the Brownlow!

Like to see where he plays during NAB. But I'd be skeptical on his Dt output in a talent laden Eagles midfield.
