Tough decision in AFL fantasy.  Which way do you sway? Pendles or Treloar.

pick whichever one you like

80s+: Treloar 21, Pendles 21
110s+: Treloar 14, Pendles 8
140+s: Treloar 0, Pendles 2
do you prefer a player who scores 140, 100, 100, 100, 85 (Pendlebury) or a player that goes 110, 105, 110, 110, 90 (Treloar)
both give you the same output, but you might prefer looking at one's scoring over another

with Adams in the side:
Pendles - 14 games @ 104.35
Treloar - 14 games @ 113.07

with Sidebottom+Adams in the side:
Pendles - 12 games @ 104.58
Treloar - 12 games @ 116.75

personally.... neither
I can't pay the coin for a guy like Pendles when I could have the likes of a Priddis/Ziebell for 20k less [for a similar type of scoring], or I could go WAY down and pick a Beams/Heppell/Gaff if I wanted a bit of a variety there
I also can't pay for the likes of Treloar when he doesn't take the game away from an opponent - 120s are nice scores, but they don't demoralise an opponent like a 140 does (which is kinda what I want from a C option - like a Parker or a TMitchell type)

I think it depends:
if you're picking as a captaincy option, then Pendles - as he has the ceiling to truly hurt the opponent (2 scores over 140 compared to 0 for Treloar)
if you're picking as an M2, then Treloar, as his consistency gives makes him a reliable point scoring option, particularly if you're going weird in other lines (say like a Greene where he scores 110+ or 75)

Awesome, thanks for the detailed analysis.

I reckon both Treloar and Pendles are under priced based on last year.  Reckon they improve their scoring this year, Pendles more injury free, and Treloar with natural progression.  They seem pretty safe and as long as they will be up around the top 8/10 MIDs, I'm keen on starting at least one.

I'd probably go with Treloar, but could also start both ;)

Id go with Pendles purely on the fact that Ive started him in DT from since i can remember (probably the first year im looking to start without him!

Those stats with Pendles VS Treloar RE: Adams and Sidey are interesting to take note of though and would be something I would consider.

Y'all literally answered your question right there.

Treloar in DT, Pendles in SC.  Best of both worlds without having to choose.  ;D

[Grannyboy]

I don't think I'd start with either and rely on one or both dropping at some point during the year due to form or injury and maybe get one in half way through the season or thereabouts. If they don't drop I probably won't put one in.

[Grannyboy]

And if I had to choose I'd say Pendles.
