[tbagrocks]

Let's have a look at the best options for adding the mid-pricer/break-out/cash-maker into our starting teams, who are the Sidebottom's, Waters and Clancee's of 13, Anyone else to add?

Forwards              pos   price        12-11 ave
Matty Wright         C/F  $438,700   85-65        Should improve his midfield out put
Sharrod Wellingham C/F $424,300  84-79        What will be his role at WC, will he improve
Matt De Boer         C/F  $434,000   84-62        Another who could step up in the midfield
Dustin Martin         C/F  $437,100  85-89         Will his off-field drama's cost him from improving on field?
Tom Hawkins          F    $409,500  79-61         Does he improve his output
Jarryd Blair            C/F  $409,300  79-71         Will he joing the long list of Collingwood DT stars
Lewis Jetta            C/F  $492,000  76-44         Can he be DT relevant
Luke Bruest            F    $389,100  75-64         Does he step up
Colin Sylvia            C/F  $393,100 76-90          Dare I say it
Luke Dahlhous        F    $384,300  74-63          Will the talanted Dog step it up this year
Travis Cloke            F    $383,600  74-95         011 was a huge year, can he re-live it   
Allen Christensen    C/F  $381,200  74-68         injury stopped him but I see a midfield role in 13
Angus Monfries       C/F  $352,300  68-78         has to get more involved at Port
Robbie Gray           C/F  $276,100  67-81         One of the best at Port but... Still has to be considered at that price
Josh Kennedy          F    $272,300  53-79         Surely at least has to make you money
Chris Knights           F    $254,500  49-76         A new home but not really needed in that midfield, Can make money if he plays
Travis Varcoe         F/C  $234,400   9-65           Maybe a half back role?
Daniel Menzel          F    $232,100   --64          Could make a bit of cash
Cyril Rioli               F/C  $425,800  82-86          Would have to play more through the midfield
Arryn Siposs            F    $325,000  63-36          a half back role maybe

Backs
Bachar Houli           B    $407,200   79-84           Can get better but with only 6 backs?
Greg Broughton      B/F  $408,000  79-84            New team where does he play, b/f link
Mitch Golby             B    $379,700  73-53            Could play all year at hb, has to improve
Jack Watts             B/F  $360,600  70-72            b/f link, surely one day he will bang, 13?
Brodie Smith           B    $329,500  64-53            Will spend more time on wing and should greatly improve on 64
Cameron Pederson B/R  $296,100  57-71            ruck link but surely not?
Nathan Bock          B/F  $282,800  61-82            Can hit 80+ but is he priced to highly?
Jordan Russell         B   $264,300  57-71             New team but still might not see games
Andy Otten             B   $243,900  52-70             If he gets going could breakout

Rucks
Nic Naitanui           R/F  $442,800  86-75             More improvement expected but can he beat Maric etc..
Hamish McIntosh     R    $421,300  90-79             Now at a team known for high possessions but.. he gets injured :-\
Tom Bellchambers   R    $412,800  80-64             Young and improving but fittness?
Tod Goldstein          R    $407,300  79-99             Massive 011 and on most peoples lips, now the sole Ruck
Matthew Kreuzer     R     $403,700  78-66             Needs to step up to help the Blues success
Stefan Martin         R/F   $356,400  77-82             New team and the frwd link, still would need to do more
Zac Smith               R    $300,000  78-58              Young and will improve, well he pleases the Llamas anyway
Matthew Leuenberger R $233,600  56-92              That 92 ave from 011 has everyone talking
Nathan Vardy          R    $209,200  58-47              Almost cheap enough for bench cover/cash cow, where does he sit pecking wise?
Setana O'Halpin      R/F  $157,700  34-73              Surely not at WS for a holiday? Cash cow?

midfielders, this is the toughy but could a Ball be used as a cash cow? With now 8 starters and 30 trades do we take risks?
Luke Shuey             C   $488,100  94-83                Has to improve on 94, enough to keep?
Rory Sloane             C  $470,100  91-86                 Expect a big year, if they leave him alone should break 100
Nathan Fyfe            C   $458,500  89-98                 Could be "that guy" that goes boom
David Mundy           C   $451,800  87-96                 Can at least make some money for a quick upgrade
Andrew Gaff            C   $446,100  86-65                 Won't be to long before he breaks out
Daniel Rich              C   $439,000  85-80                 In an improving young team and a major midfield player
Harley Bennell          C  $438,200  85-67                 Who has the cahoonies this year?
Mitch Wallis             C   $427,600  83-55                 One day we will all want him
Daniel Hannebery     C   $421,800  82-79                Has to improve on 82
Matthew Broadbent  C   $413,100  80-63                 The next Ebert at Port?
Jack Ziebell              C   $406,400  79-78                Well I'm sure one day he will tear it up :-\
Ryan Bastinac           C   $405,800  78-65                 Has the ability to get 100, next year?
Tom Liberatore         C   $401,300  78-70                 Will want to prove himself, good quick cc?
Jack Trengove          C   $391,300  76-89                 Has the potential but is in a struggling midfield unit atm
Luke Ball                 C   $343,100  74-96                  I'm sure we are all annoyed, but still cheap enough for a good scoring cc
Andrew Embley        C   $264,300  57-94                  Looks now the good priced mid to make us money
Andrew Carrazzo      C   $467,400  90-92                  Will he become more of a ball winner under Mick
David Swallow          C   $380,400  73-76                 Third year now and should improve

Thoughts on anyone else worth adding? Caddy, Prestia? D Swallow? All good for making quick money

[Holz]

Having a look at Sylvia, Knights and varoce up front.

Broughton is in at this stage and considering bock but probably not.

Great list

[Windigo]

Would love to see Varcoe's role during pre-season.

As well as Jordan Russell's.

[POK252]

Also having a look at Shannon Brynes during the NAB. Averaged 85 and 79 back in 2009/2010.

[Ricochet]

i think Carrots should be in there also tba
also maybe Rioli

[Holz]

rioli im certainly lloking at take away the vests and he did well.

[tbagrocks]

Surely Carrots isn't going to make any money? Why do you think he should be in the midfield?

12 - 90
11 - 92
10 - 81
09 - 85
08 - 94
07 - 100        Hasn't averaged 100 in 6 years?

Carrazzo
2012 ave: 90
2012 ave (unsubbed): 100
Averaged 100 this year as a tagger + Malthouse doesn't tag = 105-110 average?
he is the prime DT age. 110 might be pushing it, but even still he is atleast 10-15 points under priced

Yeh so am i holz. 90 average without the vests, plus a bit of natural improvement and that always promised more midfield time... he could go 95-100

[Justin Bieber]

I can pick 51 choices :o

[GM]

For me the only two that are cheap enough(injury free) and will improve output and cash are Knights and Varcoe.
Will monitor closely during Nab cup.

[brewster]

Will be interesting to see how Broughton's departure will impact Duffield as well. I see a potential 95 average if Lyon plays him in position

[henry]

Me too. Duffield could be a real good POD. Sylvia is locked for me, keeping an eye on Christensen,  Burger, Knights, Bock, Goldy and others.

[tbagrocks]

                                                              Bump!

I also think if JJ (Jenkins) does get Tippo's spot, he could well ave 85-95, he could improve fairly well over the summer and he's a R/F so it makes it tempting, also was his first season

Trouble is he's 316k :-\ but had scores of 92, 75, 99, 76 from only eleven games, mostly as a third tall, if he gets the FF gig ;)

[Toga]

Fyfe is near locked for me ;)

Also considering a few others from the list, Broughton, Knights and Kennedy to name a few!
