I'm looking for a 2nd forward rookie preferably in the 108k bracket. At the moment i have neade as my f7 and rowe as f8, but i dont think rowe will play early. I also dont think daniher will play early as he didnt play in the NAB. Who is the best rookie to pick up in forwards for 108k or less.

Sorry other than Neade I got him in F7

As much as I don't like it but I think Tom Lee is one if the better option and that's showing how slim the pickings are this year.

owenbond007

Dont think i can pick him. His likely to do a k.hunt in first season and lose dollars.

Whats Paparone's chances like from the lions?

Lee is only $115000 or maybe less I'm not sure but I dont think he can lose money unless he gets negative scores.

I like Paparone quite a bit. I remember hearing Jono Brown give him massive wraps and say he's a really big chance for round 1. Hasn't been outstanding this preseason but has been solid and looks up 2 AFL level. Will take one of my bench spots if named round 1.

I like Paparone, but I dont think he will get many games.

Yeh that's the problem with him. Is fighting for a spot with a few other. Green, Bewick, Karnezis and co.

Paparone & Neade are the only two that spring to mind. Lee maybe.... :-\

FWD rookies are thin this year.  :(

There's also Mayes and Daniher on the expensive side.

Thin is being very kind Windi. I can't think of it ever being this bad. There's a chance we could have 0 forward rookies starting round 1 (not including Macaffer)

Daniher and Mayes...Who are they?  :P

True, I guess you have a point there, but Daniher should play, shouldnt he?

Strong possibility with 2 trades a week starting a non playing rook at F8. :-\
