Planning for 2017

[crowls]

Backs,   1 player over 500k if Def only, 1 over 500K d/m rest under 500k - no rich, mcveigh,
Mids,  Danger, Pendles, then Fyfe, selwood, stephen, bont, cripps, hanners, jpk, ward, dusty depending on price
Rucks, Gawn and Goldy/SMartin
Fwds,  Zerrett(?/M), wont select him as mid only, Bennell, Greene, Barlow (depending on who he plays for)

[Holz]

Can't see yourself choosing injury prone players yet you have Bennell? :P

I'm not going to make any predictions now because let's be honest - we have no idea

he did say unless they are sub 500k and looking cherry ripe on the training track. so one of the two is true.

Shaw, Rance, Laird
Danger, Pendles, Fyfe, Dmart, Brodie
Goldy
Gunston Buddy Bennelll

[GoLions]

Rocky 20ppg underpriced, so he's a lock. Pendles also guaranteed a start. Rest is anyone's guess :P

EDIT: Actually, Beams will also be underpriced and can avg 120, so he will start if named round 1. Stefan struggled after that concussion, so he is also underpriced and worth considering. Beastmode will average 100+ next year, so could be a sneaky POD. Cutler should average 90, give or take.

Oh, and ZZZZZZZZZZZZORKOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

That is all.

The two I really want to lock, Neale and Zerrett, have too much uncertainty once their 2017 teams return for me to cement them in.

And Lids he is starting to fall in that category as well

Agree re Lids and Bennell but as I said, I'll only because selecting these guys IF they look cherry ripe.
My comment was more re full priced premos re Rocky, Gaz etc
Bennell for expect could be the Wells of 2016. Won't be priced as juicy as Wells this year but could easily come out and average 90-100.

[crowls]

i expect Bennell to be 100-108 avg.   Will be very popular choice.
GL makes a good point about Stef.   Issue is if 2nd ruck plays, scoring drops 30+points.
Brad Crouch could be undervalued as well.   worst case 95 avg with breakout possible.

This isn't 2016 predictions crowls :P

Def - likely 2 if not all 3 of Docherty, Shaw, Laird. Cheapies - Scharenberg.

Mids - Definately on Fyfe, Pendles,Danger. Maybe on Beams, Sloane, Parker.

Rucks - Probably Gawn and Goldy. Very tempted on B.Grundy!

Fwd - Depends on who gets f/m status. Will look at Dahl, Swan. Probably most unsure of fwds currently

How would Swan get fwd status? Didn't he get injured round 1 as mid only?

Yes he certainly did GL, im not sure why people are talking about him as a potential forward

[batt]

If Tippett is R/F, I'm very tempted.  His last 7 scores were:

59 in a half, 103, 79, 141, 115, 93, 101

[quinny88]

Rocky gets talked up as a bargain every year but realistically his last 5 years have been

2012 - 97 avg 22 games
2013 - 109 avg 21 games
2014 - 132 avg 18 games
2015 - 101 avg 16 games
2016- 105 avg 13 games and counting

Everyone likes to believe that his 2014 year is his standard but it's not, it's a one off.
I know he's been injured a lot but that's because he's injury prone and him getting injured again and averaging 105 is more likely than him having a 130+ avg ever again unfortunately

[Mat0369]

I'm not starting Rockliff next year. I reckon there is a huge chance he injures himself in the first half of the season before coming back and scoring well in the back end. He will be an upgrade target at best.

He does have a 128 average since coming back from injury. with 4/9 130+ games

2011 he averaged 114
2012 he was stuffed around and played forward
2013: Super Gun
2014: injured, but knocked out for a 0 this could happen to everyone remove this 108.
2015: injured but coming back into form with 128 in the second half.

so pretty much looks like 110 at worst. With 120+ as best. certainly picking him.

No, worst is him being injured, which is probable haha 110 would be a very good outcome haha
