Summary:

There aren't many players as exciting as All-Australian, Norm Smith medallist Steve Johnson. Stevie J is clearly amongst the elite of smallish forwards. Kicked 4 or more goals 7 times in 2010, and at least 1 goal in every match.

However, despite Stevie J's fantastic year, in SC he averaged just below 90 and only 6 centuries.

The Crystal Ball:

Based on last year's magic number
Price: $476,900

Based on m0nty's fanplanner
Price: $454,100

Position: FWD (small chance of MID/FWD)

* Note, have now included prices from m0nty's fan planner. I'm not sure where his number came from but I don't doubt his wisdom! The problem with using m0nty's number is you can't compare players prices in 2010 with 2011 as the scale has changed. So both are included.

I do not think Stevie J's 2011 will be as good as 2010. The winds of change are coming at the Cattery and roles will change, I'd expect his scores to reflect that.

He should be a forward next year.

Decision:

I still haven't forgiven Stevie J for single handedly destroying my 2009 SC team. Plus, he doesn't score high enough, often enough. Did not score consecutive centuries for the year - despite being in almost career best form. I don't see much upside. No from me.

[Fletch74]

Turns the ball over too much for me, and is far too inconsistent. A definite no from me as well. Would only ever consider for DT

[Justin Bieber]

I won't fully rule him on. Won't start with him in his inconsistent ways. An upgrade target if he falls enough, if he has had a fairly good year or if there isn't any better forwards available.

[benjy251090]

[Master Q]

Really not sure, but closer to a No then to a Yes.

[Maca24]
