Jack Gunston, averaged 96 un subbed last year including finals. Priced at 447k, jump on!

If Mitch Duncan's ever going to take the next step and his game to a new level, it's in 2014.

Agree completely with Mitch Duncan. He will step it up. David Swallow I'm a huge fan of and I think Tom Scully will produce a very good season.

Jack Newnes set for a big year

Steven Motlop for mine.

Averaged 82 last year and was outstanding towards the back end of the year. Tonned up 4 weeks in a row from rounds 18 - 21.

Has played 51 games now so is ready for a real breakout year as far as SC goes.

Expecting an average of 95 - 100 next year.

another great call! love the bloke ... very close to becoming a member of mine

Zac Dawson for mine. Great player. Knows how to find the ball. Expect him to go 110+

CrowsFan · December 24, 2013, 04:37:25 PM

Some players who's averages were in the mid 80's/high 70's from last year who I can see going 95+ in 2014 are...

Adam Treloar - steadily improving each year. As giants get more wins the higher his scores will be
Stephen Hill - this is his year
Sam Jacobs - not really a breakout, but I reckon he can rediscover his 2012 form
David Zaharakis - was averaging 99 before injuring his back. Injury free he is a 100+ player
Jack Gunston - demonstrated in finals how good he will be, may be another year away though with the loss of Buddy
Brandon Ellis - won't get the vest next year and won't get tagged either
Jack Darling - ready to take it to the next level
Brodie Smith - probably not up to 95, but low 90's in my opinion

Thoughts? :)

Jroo · December 24, 2013, 04:41:29 PM

Yeah I pretty much agree with all of them CF.
Just on Ellis, he'll be tagged more this year than he was last year, IMO.
Not sure on Sauce though, but that's probably because he flowered up my year this year in SC. :( >:(

CrowsFan · December 24, 2013, 05:02:31 PM

Oh you reckon he will get tagged more? I figured with Cotchin, Dusty and Lids he would be left alone?

Yeah generally people hate going for a player who screwed them over, but from the reports I've read Sauce is training really well, shed a few kilos so he can run for longer and seems mentally very prepared on how to recover his form :)

IMO, teams will realise that he's vital to the Tigers' success, with his run and carry.
He wasn't really tagged much last year (only in a few games), but he'll get some attention every few weeks. As we also have Dusty, Cotch and Lids, you can't tag them all, so he'll escape the tag some weeks. Still he'll improve his average next year without the vest.

Good to hear that about Sauce, at the end of 2012 he was close to the best ruckman in the comp.
