broughton to suckling

[mote]

i have no money in the bank and need to get rid of broughton. is suckling a good option? or is adcock a safer choice?

[LaHug]

I'd go Adcock.
Suckling's average (and price rise) are quite distorted by a rare 141 against a mediocre opponent in Melbourne. The fact that get then got 84 against Richmond (not bad, but nothing special) and 70 against West Coast don't make him look as good as Adcock.
That being said, Suckling isn't a bad choice.

Bruce>Suckling.  ;D

Bruce just can't get near the damn ball today!

i traded out bruce ages ago. hes not dream team relevant anymore because of the role that the coaches are making him play. he needs to be in the midfield for him to be useful

I'm keeping the faith and hoping with Rioli out.....

I still don't think Adcock will maintain his 100+ scoring output. But hey, I've been wrong a lot.

Clarko tipped Suckling for break out year in the press at the start of the year.

I Suckling last year and he was in & out and not doing much anywhere.....But this i sa new year and the scores are great thus far.

Windigo I reckon Adcock will get 90+ most games.

For sure. I've had him the last 3 years.

But, do you agree he won't get the 110+ every week?

I think people are picking him hoping for this... ???

[Master Q]

Not Sure

Sticking to Suckling, he looked like a star today and at just under $300k, is surely a must pick as a 6th/7th back? With Hawks getting the bye I can wait another week on my many defensive cash cows and trade him in. I have an extra cash cow in defence after downgrading Duffield to Toy, maybe backfired but I was thinking Suckling for him 2 weeks ago...

Would McKernan/Stanley/Duigan -> Suckling be a decent trade in a weeks' time?

You've got me considering it now. Sounding delicious :P

[Andrew]

Yeah I don't think any of those 3 would've peaked after 1 more game, but kind of the last chance on Suckling at a cheap price. I'm leaning towards McKernan -> Suckling but if Duigan pulls another 50 I'll milk him as he's gone up nicely (and I'll still have Lower).

I'd go for a rookie if money is what you're looking for. plus adcock is more expensive than broughton.
