For me JPK v Rocky. I know preseason is something not to worry about but both scored rubbish over all 3 games, don't think either of them got over 90. And Rocky had 28 CBA's the other day for an 82. Alarm bells or not?

Thanks for the reply. I am having the same dilemma with mid prems. I have opted for Rocky over JPK for a number of reasons:
1. Rocky has had a strong preseason
2. JPK always a slow starter
3. Rocky's ceiling is too god to ignore and not something u wanna miss out on early in the season
4. Rocky a touch cheaper
5. Rocky has averaged 132 in a season. Imagine if he does something similar to that agian.
Only problem I see is Beams taking his points, his average with beams in the side isn't great I don't think.
As for the mid prems and their JLT performance, I don't think anyone has done particularly well aside Treloar and beams. None of the swans boys have tonned I don't think, Selly had a good game today but starts slow and you know you will be able to pick him up for 500 at byes, sloane hasn't played yet, ablett only one game, gray hasn't played, not considering dusty and neale with fyfe back in the team will suffer a bit I reckon. Not really considering anyone else. My mid atm is Danger, Treloar, Rocky, Bont, Fyfe, Beams, JOM, Swallow. I can suggest Bont because I reckon although he will cop a bit more attention, he scored 97 on the weekend spending 3 quaters forward and scoring 50 and then moves into the mid for the last quater when the games in the ballance and racks up 10 and doubles his score. Just reckon with his ceiling and his ability to go big without racking up more than 30 disposals is uncanny. i know I ranted, hope I helped tho :/

Good summary, the only thing that worries me with Rocky is a potential new role. The coach has stated he will be using him more in a forward capacity and the last time that happened Rocky averaged a shade under 100. The Beams factor is also a worthy concern. For 600k I'd be looking at players who won't deviate in price, Hanners proved that last year, JPK rarely spuds up so won't drop too much. I like the Bont pick but I'm still cautious, hard to believe he's only 20 which is a year earlier than Fyfe's breakout.

thoughts on realistic avg?? T - 80/S - 90??

After six weeks T will be 318K   Scored 480 points  Profit 111k,     S 384k  540 points  profit 104k  so effectively the marginal gain in points cost you 73k at start of year.   60 points 73k.   Could you have invested that 73k for more than 10point gain elsewhere at the start of the year.    Given magic price of 5.14 you should be expecting between 13-14 points for your money.

I did the maths the other week and Rockys average playing in 18 games with Beams is 101. That is taking out the scores of 0 and 41 he got playing with Beams when Rockliff got injured. Beams average in those games was about 112 by memory.

That's gotta be a deal breaker.

Lloyd, Macare and whe. You have 2 keepers and one cash cow to upgrade. In my opinion Bob, Higgins and Nank, while scoring similar to start the year as the other group will all be a little short of keepers, meaning 3 upgrades.

I think Beams is a must have. Nothing wrong with option 2 though.

Rough v Steele (&20k)

I think Steele, and also that about 90% of the population will go the other way. Have backed this opinion with my team selection and won't waver to popular opinion.

Thanks mate. I am seriously considering it.
