A fit and firing Johannisen, or a buck each/way on Williams.

ok now that the prices are out which one do you will be the best, Im leaning towards johanissen as he is dirt cheap and the extra funds can let me upgrade davis to dahl rather than petracca. Thoughts?

JJ looked good. Its a sound trade. Im thinking he'll be there abouts come the end of the year.  Probably be 3rd or 4th in that lot but not by much.

Not sure about JJ

He scored 88 but obviously got a nice boost for kicking the game winner

I know his first couple of games this year where great, but I'd pick Boyd before JJ if you can afford it

he only got around 5 extra for the goal so he would have gotten low 80s but as a comeback game that is a good score

I notice there's no McVeigh on that list...... Don't rate him? Or just not interested?
I know he was underperforming in the first half of the year by the standards we come to expect from him but his last few weeks have been super.... 5 Rnd avg 101, 3 Rnd avg 104.

From memory he had no pre season, may have just needs the first half of the year to get back up to speed.
For only $463 and with his potential upside Id say he's a steal.

I'm in a similar situation and definitely tossing up between either JJ or McVeigh.

Not sure which way to go!

I plan on getting both these guys to complete my defence. McVeigh has warmed up and screams pick me for value. JJ at a good price too and solid in his first game back. If money isn't a concern then Boyd as RD has said. The choices listed are good options. Pittard and Williams are going well and I've had Laird from the start.

I've already got Boyd, Shaw, Laird, Simpson and Docherty. Pretty happy with that so only need the one more...
So JJ v McVeigh it is?

Same predicament - need 1.

Swans play at SCG s fair bit between now and finals so leaning towards him.

JJ from that list, great first game back and should have loads of improvement to come. Howe may be worth a well.  I'm split 'tween the two.     :)

Is that a positive though? Crappy rainy weather at the SCG vs JJ under the roof at Etihad?

McVeigh got 130 in the wet a couple of weeks ago.

I got McVeigh. Don't think you can lose with either of these guys TBH. Maybe JJ a bit more POD

I meant that the swans normally win at SCG, and when they win they score well. Plus wet weather helps those players like mcveigh. Understand your point about JJ under the roof
