Ah yeah...hence my whole argument has been o don't trust anyone after Danger and Heeney.

It feels like Port have been running a 5 man rotation in the square through JLT. Boak, SPP, Rocky were the main three with Gray and Drew rotating. Swap out Drew with Wines and there is your 4 man rotation. They all played forward in small stints, but they all spent most of their time through the guts. Can't see it changing that much once Wines is back. If anything one of them will come from the wing/HFF and play as the extra on baller.

I just feel I'm happy to wait on the forwards as I think it'll be the lowest scoring line anyway.

He's probably been spoken about , but how about Jack Gunston? Doesn't have the same bye as Heeney and Dangerfield. Last year, excluding one score of 47, his lowest score was 74 and he averaged 98.5 without that low score. Only issue is he's missed both JLT games and apparently he has an injury according to SuperCoach.

Yeah there's room for all of them once Wines is back. Watch our for S.Motlop getting extended stints in there too. Has come back in good nick and has expressed interest in moving back there to regain his form from Geelong days. Port need a different dynamic in there because you can't try and tell me Boak, SPP, Rocky and Wines are anything but extremely one-paced

Yep.
Especially with Polec departing, Motlop's speed is needed more than ever in the guts.

Does Lincoln McCarthy interest anyone?

105 and 75 in both JLT's, seems to have a license to roam up the ground and can snag a few goals.

Kid has all the ability and attributes in the world. Has just had absolutely rotten luck with injuries. I hope he gets a solid run at it. SC wise if it wasn’t for his injury history I might consider having a punt but many ahead of him at this stage, at least on my watch list.

Money Shot

Michael Walters anyone???

Tossing up between him and Boak.

Both have the good bye both have the potential to go 95+ this year playing more mid minutes and both pods.

Boak for me, you want a blue chip 22 gamer in there.

Mitch Wallis worth considering? Seems to get a decent amount of ball when in the guts, and hits the scoreboard when forward. Barely rated a mention, and as a Fwd/Mid could be handy swing cover

IntegralX

Pretty much every forward this year bar Danger or Heeney has a red flag attached to them. I feel like I’ve taken a tour of the red flag factory!

It’s just a matter of which one do you feel most comfortable with.

He could score but it's so hard to pick the Bulldpgs mids/fwds with any confidence where they will play. Bont, Macrae, Wallis, Hunter, Libba, Dunkley, McLean will all rotate through the mids. Im stearing clear and looking at them as upgrade targets once I see how they are going.

I found a way to get boak in as my f3

tommy10

I think Mundy is a really good option for F3. Should get more mid time and float up forward here and there so should also hit the scoreboard. For me it’s Mundy vs Boak vs Kelly

Just looking at ownership percentages for some of the talked about guys

Danger - 67% (how this isn't 100% I'll never know)
Heeney - 45%
Dev Smith - 21%
Kelly - 14%
Hoff - 13%
Dunkely - 9%
Robbie Gray - 8%
De Goey - 7%
Petracca - 7%
McLean - 5%

Mid price options

Moore - 19%
Greene - 16%
Worpel - 11%
Elliott - 10%
Daniher - 7%
Dahl - 6%
Billings - 5%
Lycett - 5%
Lobb - 4%
Vardy - 4%

Some of the rookies

Setters - 62%
Parker - 34%
Burgess - 32%
Cavarra - 27%
Drew - 23%
Rozee - 22%
Balta - 19%
Rankine - 17%
Petruccelle - 16%
Blakey - 13%
Mosquito - 12%
Schlensog - 9%
Bines - 9%
Luko - 8%
Wilkinson - 7%

So guys like Menegola (3%), Walters (3%), Darling (3%), Buddy (3%), Boak (2%) McDonald (2%) and Mundy (2%) are in less teams than Jaidyn Stephenson (3%)
