2013 Player Profile: Patrick Dangerfield

[Master Q]

Patrick Dangerfield - Adelaide

Position: MID/FWD

Price - $481,200 (Fanplanner)

2011 Games: 22

2012 Games: 22

2011 Average: 70.5

2012 Average: 101.9

2012 Tons: 12


Summary: Dangerfield is explosive midfielder who can all distribute the ball well. Was a little inconsistent at the start of the season and started slow, but finished hard and scored 7 straight tons. Had a great season and looks like he will be a future All-Australian. Things are only looking good for Dangerfield and could be a great pick up in 2013.

Verdict: Lovely price and is almost locked. Rumours he may lose his DPP however.

[tbagrocks]

won't matter as he will ave well over 110 next year as a leading ball winner in the comp

[Adamant]

Yeah lock for me in DPP. If pure mid....most likely not.

[roti]

lock if dpp
dont think i'd start him in the mids

[Alka]

Too risky for a mid, still has a tendency to go missing every now and then.
DPP lock though.

[Zombie2.5]

Yep, as a forward pretty much must-have. Will rack it up, and can only get better and improve on this year.

[elephants]

Lock in the fwd line - will still consider if only a mid ;)

Not counting anyone out yet ;)

[disco1992]

This may be wishful thinking but I remember a few games where Tippett or walker were out and he played deep forward for patches. So hopefully dpp

[KoopKicka]

Lock if DPP :)

[LF]

Definate lock if he keeps his DPP.But to be honest I don`t think he will :(

[Kellogscrunchynut]

If he is MID/FWD then he is a lock otherwise no.

[henry]

Yeah agree with what others have said, lock if he stays as a forward but I fear he will lose it, at which point the likes of Cotchin, Swan, Gaj go past him.

[newfreofan]

He's a lock for me no matter where he plays. Gun who will improve again next year.

[tbagrocks]

Paddy doesn't need to match Swan, Ablett or Cotchen, there are 6 midfield spots available
Rd 23, 136
Rd 22, 105
Rd 21, 108
Rd 20, 137
Rd 19, 130
Rd 18, 111
Rd 17, 118
+ a 110, 140, 142

he got better as the year went on as he had to learn how to dominate the midfield after being played as a forward for years under Craig, now he knows how he is more than good enough for a M5-6 next season 8)
