Which player at M3?

Gray $596k
Sloane $563k
Jelwood $566k
Parker $538k

Ablett, Rockliff, ____, Watson, Liberatore, Crouch, Myers, Cuningham

It's a crazy M3 imo not to have others but, Sloane of them. Selwood maybe but he's a caution, but he's the best option. Sloane set to have his best year given age and the inbred Dangerless
Watson? Really? No justification would get me even considering him again. Well and truly past it.

Gray seems the safest pick out of the four you mentioned.

To say it's crazy is the worst thing I have ever heard in my life. Who else is there? Potentially Pendles? Not paying $620k for somebody who may or may not improve. Will play more forward, off half back, losing mid time with Treloar and still keeping the team balanced as he can play anywhere. With that, comes the fact he will either have to kick goals or off half back get a load of cheap possies, which don't relate to SC scores. Will still have him but much cheaper. A lot of teams are running with Sloane or Jelwood at M3. Hence why I want Gray. He will outscore both easy and is only $30k more. Lol @ u tbag

Sam Kerridge v Jarryd Lyons.

Tossing up whether to take both. 
Lyons was Crows main vest candidate last year(9/13 played) but unsubbed averaged 78 (which includes a 46),  Will he be the one to step up with Danger leaving?
Kerridge is some $100k cheaper but will he get opportunities with all the Blues ins.
Lyons I think has the greater upside for cash generation which is what we are seeking early. Priced at a 45 average to start.

Lyons is a proven ball winner at SANFL level and kicks goals, none of that has transitioned over to AFL yet because he hasn't been given the chance (always sub) it could go either way, the sub rule being abolished could help him or see him on the fringe, i lean towards he will get a chance.
He has recruited a sports scientist to work closely with mainly on his running efficiency & endurance.

Very interesting research, thanks for the info.

What are your thoughts on Heppell as a pod over the likes of Selwood and Sloane?
He is only going to improve with Watson and Myers supporting him and you would hope that Essedons off field troubles are behind them.

[PiPies]

Was looking at Heppel also but read somewhere he is late to start training due to still being sore from last season. Not a huge deal but enough to put me off him.

tippett vs grundy vs sinclair for R2

Not the biggest fan of any of them from a SC point of view but probably Tippett if I had to choose

Parker and Pendles by a mile

[Money Shot]

I actually prefer Sloane and Selwood, they can both go 120 where as I'm not sure if Parker is capable. Obviously a lot of people will disagree with me.

Can't see Sloane going 120, whereas Pendles has for years.
Pendles > Jelwood
Sloane > Parker

I'd lock in Pendles and take whoever you prefer of Sloane and Parker if you can afford both, Parker if can't afford Sloaney

Sloane and Selwood is a bit cheaper and allows me to have a bit of coin left over, however, there are more risks with that pairing. Will danger affect selwood, will selwood start slow and be a perfect upgrade target, will danger leaving affect sloane. I had sloane from the start last year with danger and was very pleased... until he copped the tag. His first three games his ave was huge and then teams payed a bit more attention to him and he ave somewhere in the 60's and I had him captain for one of those games. Just feel that the first pairing is safer with a slight bit of risk because Parker could well go huge, we saw that a couple of years ago. I love the way he plays, and with McVeigh coming of age, JPK past his prime I feel he can lift his input.

Thank you for your response!

Cheers mate. Have to make rookie adjustments to get Pendles in. He is the only one i want over 580k so parker is really my only option as the other midfielder. Do u perhaps think that Beams and Sloane is better partnership?

I currently have Beams myself, but I think I'd still go with Pendles and Parker
