The Value Forwards

[SilverLion]

What's Robbo's role going to be this season?

Predominately forward with a few tagging roles through the midfield.

Put a line through him :'(

Put a line through him :'(

He was averaging 91 in the role prior to the injury game (scored 29 after breaking his foot in the first). Could still be a decent pick at his price. I noticed he FF says he played in the middle week 1 of JLT, he would have been an instant lock if that was the case for the rest of the season. I'll probably wait a couple of weeks and shortlist him as an upgrade target.

Yeh I had him 100% locked in early drafts because i thought he'd fill the Rocky void. But still looks like he might spend a little time fwd which is putting me off him a bit

That was my thinking as well but I think they're going to use a number of guys to rotate through the middle including Bundy, Bell and some of their younger guys like Berry, McClugg, Keays etc. I'm assuming Charlie Cameron is going to run through the guts as well.

If Robbo goes into the middle it will probably be in the tagging role like he said. He might actually be better value as a half forward since he can play an attacking role. I'll be curious to see what role he has today but I don't think I'll watch the game, going to see Black Panther instead.

Whats everyones thoughts one Bundy? Yes hes cheap and should have solid JS, but will he score enough to be valuable option?

Certainly would have liked to see better scoring, but yesterday they played in a slush pit so he get's a bit of leeway there

If there were better rookies available then he might be worth passing on, but I've still got him because I just don't like the rookie choices at all

There’s Dunkley and Bell who are similar priced but Bundy has the better JS and scoring potential. Like the look of Fogarty, but with Tex back will be tough to break into that 22.

He's in my team and many others by default. If in the unlikely event a cheaper option with decent JS pops up he's out.
Having said that he's a good player and capable of 80-90 points. Will take a while to adjust back into AFL so will start slowly, but he'll make money, just slower than others.

I too was initially wary on Bundy but have looked at both JLT games. I have factored in that Bundy has not played for 1 and a half seasons and lacks match practice. He looked a little overweight as well at the intra club but is starting to lose a bit of the weight. In both JLT's he scored the bulk of points in the first half before fading in the second. As he gains match fitness I expect him to  get his average up to 80+ but will be a slow progress initially.

I feel uneasy picking him aye. But given his high ownership I just feel like he is a relatively safe option.

Prefer Bell over him personally.

One guy I forgot about up until last week was Tom Lynch from the Crows. He's under-priced due to the concussion game last year and was on absolute fire.

Come round 1 lockout, I bet you don't.
