Could Tommy Bugg be freed up a little more now that he's moved on to Melbourne?

I refuse too provide too much of my information on this guys. But here are some tasters.

He is locked into the Melbourne Side
In matches where he didn't tag in the last 2 years he has averaged 82.
He has the 3rd highest Contested Possession % of total Possessions in Nab 1. Only Gawn and Hogan were higher.
He only went at 50% disposal efficiency and only played 75% TOG. *Cough* He Rotated through the Middle *Cough*

That's all ill give you.

Thanks man, he can definitely play.....just wanna be sure he's not going to be in lock down mode before i jump in

Is anyone considering Michael Johnson
Priced at on 435k (80 avg) but has averaged 87 for the last 3 years. Has scored over 80 in 31/50 games and only under 60 in 3 games excluding his -3

He is likely an injury risk as he did the Hammy pretty bad last year, but he looks like he is fit and going to be playing that loose man role again.

For that price I much prefer Rich & Smith, I think durability has to be taken into account. Can't see Johnson hitting 90 but can see the other two achieving that feat.

They both have higher ceilings, but both are very up and down scoring wise which balances it out.
Unlikely I will go him. Most likely will be Williams if named for the D5 spot.

Anyone got ownership % on Enright? Reliable and not much talk about him...

Enright only 1.09% ownership. Priced at $516k which may put people off given defence is the hardest line to predict and the number of cheaper options available.

He didn't have too bad of a year last year. Averaged 95, only 7 scores below 90 from 21 games.

Anyone tempted?

As good as he is, and has been, he is heading on for 35 yrs of age. That scares me off.       ::)

D4 can go and flower itself

Yep agree, if I need to get another premo in then Rich will be the one

#SuperCoach alert! Gold Coast coach Rodney Eade nominates Jesse Lonergan is David Swallow's midfield replacement.

Jump on the bandwagon

Need to ascertain how serious his injury from last night is before committing.  Awkwardly priced as well. More than likely will be the one to go when Swallow comes back as well so if selecting need to factor that in.

I'm still keen too Holz. Nobody in that $250-$450k range I like at all (that's all I have to spend) apart from Smith (yes Williams and Sheridan and others etc but no thanks). Smith has gone 94 before and can crack another top 6 berth again I believe. He has the talent. Last year everything that could've gone wrong did. I'm backing him to play well once again. Look at his last few scored of last year minus the Geelong game where he got that in just over a quarter, and the Hawks game where they got pantsed. The form was coming back to him.

144 117 87 60 45 73 for a 88 average to start the season this is no injuries

really struggled in the middle of the season

last 5 games 97 76 108 126 43 (in a 1/4 and abit)

certinaly up and down though if you look at the first 6 and also in the finals went 104 then 44

they year before it was the same

6 120+ scores with a high of 144
9 100+ scores
8 sub 80 scores
3 sub 60 scores with a low of 32

Think most are concerned with Adelaides opening draw for both Sloane and Brodie
