What score does Danger need to average to maintain his price

136

Not quite, he will have average around 145 to maintain his price

He went 144.8 for his last 15 games of 2017 season.

PowerBug

Since being at Geelong:
2016 Rd 1 - 163, 43 touches
2016 QF - 121, 35 touches
2017 Rd 4 - 90, 27 touches. Roughead gave him a knee to the kidney in Q1 and he still scored 90+.
2017 Rd 17 - 141, 20 touches 5.6. Roughead ran into him in Q1 again sending him forward for the rest of the match, he topped all players in the game.
In 2015 as a Crow he scored 106 and 121 against them as well.

Let's hope he stays away from Roughead in Q1 this Monday ;D I'll be captaining him over Titch if VC Fyfe doesn't work out.



As for future prospects and pricings, he's averaged 130 and 136 last two years, and without this niggle everyone would've penciled him in for the same again. Those without him will take solace from the following however:
2016 Rd 2-4: 77 (GWS, Conigs tag), 145, 99. [Only 2 more sub 100 scores for the season]
2017 Rd 4-6: 90, 120, 65 (Coll) [Went 100+ every other game after this]

He does something similar this season then yeah you'll get your price drop, but get ready to jump on you won't have long before it rises again!

Good record against upcoming opponents -

vs Hawks (141 & 90)
vs West Coast (141)
vs Saints (120)
vs Port (163)
vs Swans (135)
vs GWS (163 & 196)

As a hypothetical if he plays 70% forward this week what do people think he will score?

I'd be surprised if he didn't play mid/forward around 50/50 just to ensure he is 100% right. Its the first hamstring tear he has had if I am correct.

I also want to see what they do with him, Ablett and Selwood in the side together before making him an absolute priority to get in.

yeah I am not sold, if he come back this week I am more than happy to risk watching his 2 games before making any rash decisions

Billings had the same injury and bounced back superbly. I reckon Danger would have played last week if it was a final, then maybe a stint in the forward line might be appropriate. It will be 25 days of recovery, that's probably right for this type of injury.

I think he'll probably just score a so-so 120. I'll be trying to get him in asap after this week. Absolute must have and you're chasing the pack if you dont have the best supercoach scorer in the game

crowls

if he plays up front and hawk chf then 5 goals   120+ points.   with gaz in the team  danger is likely to kick 60+

Can't remember, but what did he score last year when injured early in a game and played a lot up forward ?? And this time he has Gazza as an extra feeder.

The 2 games I remember him playing mostly as a forward were the Hawthorn game he kicked 5 (scored 141) and the semi final v Sydney (135)

Dusty last night. The Leigh Matthews role has returned.

Not After tday with Gaz pinching points

I'll bring him in when he drops to 600k. Got Martin and Mitchell so don't really need him atm.

What a fantastic 1st 5 minutes (and the rest) with Gaz, Danger and Selwood all combining
Kelly still had an impact too
but no Duncan today (was my "placeholder" for Danger) but is he is back next week that is another mouth to feed
No doubt Danger can rack up the SC points quickly
May wait another week  :P
