Rockliff, but Boak is only in 1.43% of teams. Good pod

I picked up Boak for the final third of last year.  He was "steady" without being exciting.  I think Leppitsch will give Rocky the freedom he needs to excel, and he would be my choice.

Pretty sure Rocky is only in under 7% of teams, he is still a POD too.

He also has the potential to average 125+ IMO.

Thats a huge call I know.

Yeah Rockliff is in 7.84% of teams, so either way they are both PODs.

I'd go with Boak, might step it up another level this year and i dont like brisbanes draw.

thats just crazy, he should be in you M2/5

In Rocky's big year a couple of years ago he actually averaged a lot better against top 8 sides. I'm a little bit worried he will cop more attention now though

I remember last year everyone was looking at Fyfe because he was so cheap, but I was so damn close to starting Boak as POD and regretted it that I didn't go with my gut

Go with your gut mate

This is why i'm waiting as i dont know how he will handle a tag if he gets one at all (occasionally imo). That and i couldn't decide between him and Fyfe so one will be first upgrade hopefully.

So which is it? Will Rocky get tagged or not? There seems to be differing opinions on that. It makes sense to tag outside damagers like Rich and Hanley over inside accumulators like Rocky.

Surely if their draw is tough and aren't winning that many then why tag Rocky? If Brisbane prove the doubters wrong, however Rocky could suffer as no doubt he'll be part of that.

Last premium spot in my mids - I like Rocky being a POD but why is he a POD? Non - Victorian team? Or something more sinister? ???

I'd say any premium that isn't Ablett, Pendles, or Beams in the midfield will be a POD to start off with.

Gut for this one. When it's a POD, going against your gut and being wrong kills your Mojo for the season. Going with your gut and getting it wrong is annoying and soon forgotten.

Grufflez

I nearly picked Boak aswell, like the bloke

Marcos83

Rocky easy. Boaks slightly overrated if you ask me.
