Which player to choose?

Matthew Bate or Jason Porpyliza

Bate apparently has had best pre season and porpy used to be a gun?

i had early thoughts of masta bater as well mate - been training with midfield group pre season apparently. i'm keeping an eye on him when the dees play, only and i would only consider if he gets time in the guts tho! but he is rather an awkward price, but which midpricers aren't?? haha besides porpz
but when i do have porpz at F6/5 or whatever, i just feel i might as well go a rookie. but if porpz is amoungst it will be hard to ignore him

Hard one to call. Porpz is reminding me of Chris Knights last year, same price range and a lot of pre-season hype but ultimately didn't deliver. I don't thinks he's named for Sunday either.

Not named for Sunday cos he got a corkie at training the other day. Aside from that he has been training very well and participated in all contact drills including tackling and has had no shoulder complaints. He's locked in my side, but then again I am biased ;)

Thanks for the info. Can you please tell me if Jacobs is looking the goods?

CrowsFan

Haven't actually heard anything about Sam Jacobs this pre season. So I would assume that means there are no injury concerns. Considering there are only 3 other rucks at the club (and 2 of them are rookie listed) he should score extremely well since he has no one to fight for number 1 status with. Currently got him in my team as my number 2 ruck :)

Thanks for that, I've got him locked in too.
