JV's pre final POD's: Midfielders edition

[jvalles69]

Onto the final line, mids!  Not too many in this one as you should be trying to get the best of the best, but fear not, if you can't afford anyone or feel like a YOLO moment then look no further!

Luke Shuey (474K) BE - 64 Ave - 92.1 Last 3: 89, 108, 116 Owned: 1.78%
With Priddis and Gaff dominating, Shuey has flown under the radar with some good form coming into the final 4 rounds. Freo, Dogs, Crows and Saints to come, could be a match winning POD, or at he very least a 100+ average from here.

Kieren Jack (492K) BE - 106 Ave - 95 Last 3: 95, 57, 111 Owned: 1.79%
Stocks have dropped since losing forward status.  Swans have their super strong midfield with Hanners, JPK, McVeigh and Mitchell all being more popular, can't see him topping those guys, but definitely has the ability to.

Rory Sloane (446K) BE - 92 Ave - 88.3 Last 3: 90, 62, 94 Owned: 4.72%
Just scrapes into the "under 5%" bracket, prob because people have gotten fed up with his injuries and his lack of consistency this season.  Is he ready to finish the season off strong? I feel a lot of people will be tempted by him this week and you could do a lot worse.

Pearce Hanley (450K) BE - 80 Ave - 83.1 Last 3: DNP, 75, 118 Owned: 0.53%
Remember that time this guy pumped out a 182? That was about this time last year. He's slowly working his way back into fitness after having most of the season off through injury.  Has proven to be a solid defender option in the past, moving into the midfield last year and proving he belongs there too.  Has a huge ceiling and if you want to take on the risk of all risks, but with the highest possible reward I'd be going Hanley. In fact, I'm very tempted to move on Lamber early just to get Hanley in!

Good luck with finals all!  I'll be pushing to get into that top 1000 and higher, and will be very YOLO going into these last 4 rounds to get there.

I've bought Hanley into my RDT side for this week (over Sloane)

just FYI, KJack is one of the most consistent players (Bellis and an injured Prestia the only 2 more consistent) averaging over 95 this season
could be a handy POD for leagues - not sure about making up points though

I knew I left someone out!

Stephen Hill (481K) BE - 48 Ave - 90 Last 3: 96, 97, 131 Owned: 2.29%
This guy used to be tagged on a regular basis for his outside run and ability, this season he has been left reasonably free and has reaped the rewards towards the pointy end of the season.  Will Fyfe back affect his scores, or will he be rested en masse Ross Lyon style?

Only thing that worries me about Hanley this week is Carlton, sometimes they tag, sometimes they don't.  If they don't tag Rockliff, Martin, Robinson and Hanley will all go huge!

Midfield report card.

Rory Sloane (136) A++
Get him in now, I will be trading the injured Parker straight to Sloane this week.  Crows playing for a finals spot, he will be stepping up!

Kieren Jack (109) A+
Does what the rest of the Swans do, just fly's under the radar, could do worse.

Luke Shuey (97) A
Solid and will be around 95-105 on a consistent basis if that's what you're after, can go big, but they aren't very often.

Pearce Hanley (76) B
Only been back for 3 weeks and the poor irishman cops a tag!  Could still be an option if he avoids the tag, but on the back of a 76 you'd have to pass.

3/4 for the mids.
