Very much considering him (well he's sitting there now), just show me your playing in the mids and your in my team, This yrs Hall

All Heeney and Touk need to do is play in the mids and they are 90+. thats good enough for me, for there price.

Even if he averages 90, he won't be a keeper and he'll make $80k.

Realistically can't see any reason why anybody would consider him. It's not his year.
A 90 average is probably gonna be 5ppg behind the top 6-10 forwards at worst imo. Should play every game and can definitely score better than that. Think he's the safest breakout contender in the forward line, much prefer him to Heeney. Also now with Barlow apparently gonna spend time at half forward and tagging...

Yeah like this comment.  The question about Touk Touk was not going to be about his ability to score in the Midfield, it was going to be about his role.  Now his role is confirmed somewhat to be mainly mid, I think he is a must to be considered.  Damn his R9 bye

Yeah tbh the bye is the only thing putting me off him a bit. Especially with Bowes and Ainsworth there as well :P (although will likely downgrade/upgrade at least one of them by then)

Yeah, GC rookies should have been moved on by then I would expect :)

But being down a "premo" in a "normal week" early in the season is not ideal

Rocket was taking fan questions on the afl facebook page today and said that took should play mainly in the guts

He also said that about Lonergan last year as well, so take from that what you will...

except last yr they were missing all there first choice mids, this yr it's not the case.
He's touted as a future captain and is in the leadership group. I believe he starts were eade says he will

caddy vs miller?

I like Caddy out of those two, strongly considering him as my F3.

Not sure Caddy improves his scoring much, and is priced higher.

Touk Touk for me.  I'm warming up to him again based on the roles given to other players that I thought were gonna take his MID minutes.

The only negatives are the risk that he doesn't get the minutes, and his R9 bye.

Also, Rocket was specifically asked if Hanley, Lyons and Barlow coming in would impact Touk, and rocket said No, Touk will still play mids even with those 3 coming in

Should go 80+ every week, but but I'm not sure he can be a Top 10 forward, so still a pass for me

I think Hanley goes to wing/half back and gives them the run, carry and polish they hoped they would get from Malceski. Lyons and Barlow probably play that high half forward role and are rotational mids.
