Is the general consensus Hartlett > Waters?

I can upgrade Goodes to either or and I already have Scotland. They're both about the same in terms of injury proneness and similar scoring/ceilings. If I go with Waters he has the bye on a different week to Hartlett but has a much higher BE.

Thoughts? Who to go with?

On current form you have to pick Hartlett

Port are in form, and the Eagles aren't...

... but as impressive as Port have been, 3 of those games have been against Giants, Suns and Demons. But was extremely impressive against the Roos...

Thats the thing - got tagged/injured in round 2 and put out a 35. I can't see Waters getting tagged.

He got 35 Vs Giants. So no beating up on that weak team. :P

I'd still go Hartlett. He'll be in the middle and thats where the action is.

I really like Waters as a POD. Had him since round 3 last year and he was gold. Very consistent, will rarely drop below 80 due to his amazing junking skills. Also has a high ceiling.

Hartlett has been in crazy form though and although he'll throw in the odd shocker, I think you have to go him.

Both great points. I'll probably end up having to flip a coin on this.
