JOM

[Ringo]

I am only starting 3 Hanley, O'Meara and Bundy although he is probably a more high priced rookie than a mid pricer,

Got the same 3 and Sicily. Not really sold on Hanley or Sicily I'm just finding it hard to fill D3+4. Yeo and Hurley overpriced, don't trust Brayshaw,Shaw,LMcDonald etc.

On JOM, I've heard Hawthorn say that although it was a knee issue in the same knee he originally injured it was a totally different issue.
So he's now over both those issues, most importantly the first issue as it was the most serious. Am I making sense lol.
So that's positive in my book unless they are lying but don't see why they would.

Running with Bundy and Sicily
BUT
Have followed JOM as a WA junior and will probably start him (heart over head) if there is any chance of him getting up for round 1.

Not really sold on Sicily either but he works for the team balance at the moment :)

People came around to Sicily after Clarkos comments, his numbers soared in ownership.
But he was always a solid pick when you break it down, the R12 bye especially in the backline is gold, at 400k even if
he scores at 85 it isn't a huge lose so no down side really, then there's that dpp which will be awesome over the byes +
great for looping later in the year when you bring in a dpp rookie downgrade.

So many solid reasons.

As for JOM if he gets thru a full JLT or 2 and there are no rumors of issues i might take the gamble.

I guess the other benefit of starting JOM is if he does break down or doesn't score well enough, you could downgrade him to a missed rookie and still have funds to fix another correction

At the end of the day, if he's fit which is the only real concern then I think he could well be worth starting and the downside/worst case scenario won't actually be that bad

Totally agree. Plus  JOM  would have a reasonably high ceiling should all go well. And let's face it, he is priced according to risk.

Do you think it'll be worth starting with JOM in 2018?

[ando_10]

no when he does his knee doing his laces up.

[meow meow]

Absolutely. Try to get as many mid pricers in as possible.

[BB67th]

Between Conigs, libba and Armitage, there are better mid price options this year in the midfield. JOM is on to my blacklist until he can put together a full season of premium scoring without the injuries.

[Levi434]

Have had JOM locked in the entire preseason. Mid pricers are the way to go.

[Goosey]

I'm loading up on mid pricers this year...but not this one.

[tommy10]

Now that Danger is 50/50 I might take the risk and go all out mid pricer in mids:
Conigs, Libba, Redden, Fiorini, Arma, JOM, Grif and Graham. Done  8)

Frees up plenty of cash for the other lines!
