Pretty keen to get this guy in. I like that when he flops he doesn't drop below the 90's. Genuine premium? What you all reckon?

For the price he is at you can get Watson, Murphy, J.Selwood, Mitchell.

Be realistic

lmao shut down. id be taking redden over rockliff, both look to be animals though. some one in brisbane has gotta get the pill and those two are showing they can get the job done. so for a unique pick then why not, personally redden > rockliff though

Mitchell got a bunch of hard teams coming up.
Murphy injury concerns at the moment, only 1 week at most but still that's 1 week + a bye soon.
Watson - hasn't had a bye yet, get him when his bye is coming up. Also has the rd24 bye.
J. Selwood - bye in finals if chasing league at all

Sir Thomas Rockliff (notice no e) - Lions have one of the easiest draws this year, only playing two teams that were top 8 from last year twice this year. Plays the Gold Coast Suns twice. Gun on his way up, good captain option vs Suns when Swan is out.

cheers nails. good info. was bringing him in anyway but good to know the rest.... i agree could be a solid captain this week. its out of him and chapman for me

if staying off watson for rd 24 because of finals, then mitchell just gets bumped up to considering his ridiculously easy draw during finals (from memory)

mitchell will probs fall in the next few weeks, might be a good choice for final mid upgrade.

Whats real, is that this kid is averaging as much as these players..  Not over 2 games but 6.. So, its whether you think he is just suddenly going to drop to a 70 average, (which is 41 points UNDER his current).

I doubt this kid will drop off, the mids in Brissy are old and the are no other options.  These kids are gonna get the run and the attention of the brisbane team for their huge amounts of disposals.

^ I'm with slap on this. I'm not sure if he'll keep up his current avg, but atm I doubt he'll slide below 105.

Looking at Redden, a 100 average is a real possibility. And I what basis to people say that a certain player will drop off and won't be worth a spot in a guys team.

Here is my little scenario.....Right fellas.

In 2009 Jeff took a liking to Montagna, he saw that he had averaged only 85 in the year prior (Sound familiar-Rocky-)

But he really wanted him in as he was busting out the tons. But some blokes said that Nah mate, will drop off.....

So he never got him and he missed out on the 115 average and was rightly pissed....

;)

yeah, premos have to become premos one year. This could be his year.

Right to a flipping T.

Swan neve lit the house on fire at the start and neither did Redden.

Everyone has to start at the bottom. Ah, of course Barlow never did.
