Really don't like the forward line this year past Danger, Heeney and Smith.  Currently rolling Danger, Heeney and Greene, but starting to look at other options.

Fisher - 3rd year breakout chance? 2nd year was a massive improvement from his 1st year, Cripps raves about him, more mid time, and looks full of confidence this year.
Dahlhaus - has proven to be a premium mid in the past, Cats midfield runs deep and it would depend if he can get more minutes than at the Dogs.
Darling - showerty bye and prob not worth the risk.
Kenedy/Riewoldt/Cameron - wait on these guys to see how the rule changes effect them.
I’m fairly sure Dahl said after the game last night he’ll be playing predominantly a forward role

Exactly my point, list is getting shorter.  ::)

didnt think kelly did much last night then I saw his SC figures.  not starting Gray for me it will be Greene.  I have 250K to spend but not enough to get kelly unless I downgrade libba to cousins/walsh and I dont see them going more than mid 70 average 80 at best.    However doing a keeper for a stepping stone who may be a keeper.

I don't know if Kelly is an option sharing the bye with Danger and Heeney. Forward rookies look poor this year and you're going to have to field them all for that bye.

Or you could just upgrade your forward line in time and have 6 prem forwards by the byes. Pretty easy, especially if you start with 4

I just think there are too many option for top 6-10 forwards.  I feel like I can only guarantee that Danger and Heeney will be top 6 then the rest could be ranked as high as 12-15th forwards.  Just don't want to pick that 10-15th guy and be stuck with them all year.

Hence I'm going Danger, Heeney, sneaky POD (which I'll change a million times), Greene. If I get the sneaky POD wrong, oh well. I was probably going to get a non-POD wrong anyway but at least I have a small chance of getting ahead. And it's fun having a POD to cheer on!

Dang it, lots of people jumped on TK after last night :(

No-one said anything about him after JLT1, woulda been good if it stayed that way :P

Devon Smith 3rd highest picked prem forward with 24%

I've never had him once, but after tonight's game I'm curious to see how much people jump off lol

Watch it drop below 20% in no time - good ol JLT knee jerking  ;D
If there's one player that was always going to go backwards this year, it's Devon Smith. Had a honeymoon year in the midfield last year, but now Shiel has come to the club and old mate will go back to battling at half forward.

Lock in Greene boys.
He's was locked as soon as it was mentioned he was gunna play in a JLT match (provided he gets through it and gets named round 1). Doesn't matter if he kicks 10 tonight, we know what he's capable of if he's fit.

This would be correct. Looked damn good as well

Has anyone get Menegola's heat map from last year by any chance? Curious to see where he was running around and getting a lot of his touches.
