[Mr.Craig]

To Sandi or not to Sandi, that is the question we'll all be asking no doubt.

If you play him at R2 it will be quite a risk and put pressure on your bench. Put him at R3 and you could be going in too heavy and be vulnerable in other positions. :-\ And if you don't play him at all you could potentially lose out big time.

For me it really depends on the likelihood of rookie rucks getting a game. I would obviously want him in my team but this year more than ever has persuaded me to take less risks and seek more consistent players.

[fertalong]

Will he be priced at a 49 avg?
If so, then he's definitely worth considering when fit. Just pray that he doesnt go down with turf toe early in the season.

[Kellogscrunchynut]

Too risky this time, wouldn't have long left in the AFL system.

[Master Q]

Not for me.

Sandi as R3 (should see reduced scores with the likes of ZClarke/Griffin playing) with HMac at R2 shounds a LOT better

tempted to start, but may check NAB (or Freo's recruitment) for another tall (not a fan of ZClarke stealing Sandi's HOs)

[Ricochet]

If he can get through a preseason then he is definitely worth the risk. Only need 6-7 games in a row to get a nice price rise

Thats the key isnt it. 7+ solid games after coming in pretty fresh hopefully. Best case senario he makes it to a midseason upgrade to whoever has the best form line.

[Holz]

with 2 trades a week you have to pick him up, the case can be made in SC with limited trades to not but in DT if he is looking fit, will be my first picked ruck.

[stew42]

I think I'd go Longer over Sandi... maybe  :-\

[Adamant]

Locked. Sandi/HMac combo looking good early.

[stew42]

Actually, with some further research, I wouldn't go near Sandi next year. Some people think that he smashed the finals, but he got 77 and 79 in the two games he played in finals. Definitely not too impressive. His highest score in all of 2013 (including finals) was 80.
Nope. Nope nope nope.

[Ricochet]

I think it was more in SC that people are saying he smashed finals? 125, 112 and 105

[SydneyRox]

If he comes in at around $250k and has a preseason he is locked in.

With a DPP Ruck Fwd like Nic Nat and two trades to burn a week, seems silly not to have him at R2.
