Looking at restructuring my forward line to get a bit extra cash in forward line.

Saw Stringer on footy show and looks like a beast. Is he going to be in round 1. Looked great in his 15mins of NAB.

Whats every body think?

Yeah the bloke looks an absolute unit but he's had an ankle injury and I dont think the Dogs would rush him in.

Shame really given the lack of viable fwd rookies.

Spot on. Heres hoping he debuts rd 6, then be prime for offloading midpricers/rookies in the forward line by rd 8

Take his injury as a plus, use him as a rookie upgrade when he returns he shall be cheaper as well which is awesome helps if you need money around round 7-8 and your forward rookies are at peak price

He was talking like he would be right come round 1

Unfortunately he doesn't get the final say.

Club medicos and team selection committee will decide for him ;)

Side like the dogs are likely to play there young guns and based on skill would be a near walk into side anyway i would think.

elephants

Sounds like you're pretty convinced on him so why ask the question? :P

owenbond007

Not really just trying to get any info i dont have on him. Somebody might have information i dont.  ;D

elephants

Haha well we've all said our parts, up to you now!

Gonna be absolute mayhem in the players and trades board between Monday night and next Sunday morning I reckon!

Me too. Have had The General sitting on my bench at F7 but if Stringer plays, he comes in. Better scoring potential.

Yep playing in the VFL, will be very keen to see how he goes.
Pretty pricey at 165k though

Surely better scoring potential than the General for those thinking about starting him? That's what I'm thinking anyways

If he plays it means I wont have to pick another MP like Harper at M6 and can save 100k
