Forward Premiums Pavlich v Roughead v Ryder v Walker v Zorko

[sam32]

Considering another fwd premium but not sure who..

start by letting us know who you have already ;)

Roughead and Ryder for the RUCK DPP make great choices but Zorko will score the most of all.

Pav is a star but I am worried about him getting injured and or rested.

I've already got Buddy, Cox and Rockliff.

if you already have cox then ZORKO. ryder and roughead are not necessary and i think there are much higher possession winners available for your fwd line, maybe either of those two for SC as they can both post big SC scores but for DT I'd be looking for a mid/fwd type, enter ZORKO....

Got to remember Zorko isn't a "normal" second year player. He was captain and best and fairest winner at Broadbeach 3 years in a row. guy is a gun, the only question was "is he AFL ready" think he answered that question last season.

Prospectus view on him if mine is not sufficient.... "Already a premium fantasy player. I wouldn't hesitate in picking him."

averaged 25 pressure acts per game too last season the most of any player in the league, so he works hard and with another pre-season at league level under his belt and more polish BOOM.

but who knows there is the famous 2nd year curse... but I've got him locked in both formats SC and DT. Lions will be better this year too

Pav couldn't ave any higher could he? Can Patty even play a full year?

Imo and maybe a bias one but rest assured I will gloat when it happens, Taylor will ave the highest of these guys!

Ok then if it's definitely out of those 5 the Zorko, closely followed by Tex. I wouldn't start Pav and Buddy together, at least one of them has to be an upgrade target (personally not starting either of them atm), nor would I have roughy and buddy (plus I'm just iffy on roughy). But I wouldn't take one of those 5 with the three you already have, I would be looking at Stevie J or Dusty (if you're not put off by him which I am - he killed me last year).

yeah dusty is going to be elite there is no doubt but man last season with him was frustrating. stevie j will play midfield time a bit again this season so he is a solid option, but he had a shocking slow start to 2012, hopefully he does that again this season and we can upgrade to him cheaply. Rockliff might be a must have, he shouldn't score any worse than his price as a mid/fwd, and if the idiot lions coach has half a clue he will have watched the tapes of 2012 and realized that every time rocky went into the midfield the lions won more clearances and if rocky lines up pure mid in 2013 he is a STEAL as a relatively low priced fwd. I'll be taking a punt on him depending on how he is used in nab cup, but the risk is relatively low even if he does play mainly fwd.
