Hey guys, a little undecided by this. Dustin Martin will most likely end up in my team, but I have a feeling about JROO taking it to the next level with the arrival of Hampson as well as Vickery having another year experience. I would have both but unfortunately they share a bye with Dangerfield (Also have Franklin). I am leaning towards Martin but Riewoldt will give me a little more cash to play with. Thanks guys!

Martin by a mile mate. Basically a midfielder that can be picked as a forward and will almost certainly average 100+ again.

Jack will post some big scores when he gets on the end of a bag of goals but like every key forward it will be a massive roller coaster ride.
If you're gonna consider someone like Jack I would encourage you to look at Hawkins instead who could push back up to a 90+ average now that his back is apparently better and is only priced at $359,500

Would you rather start Dangerfield or Tex Walker? Rockliff or Brown? Pendlebury or Cloke? Hopefully that answers your question ;)

JRoo sucks man, stay away.

Dusty is a freak though!

I am a tiger supporter and there would be about 50 other forwards I would get before Riewoldt.

Martin easily mate. A lot of talk JRoo will change his role up a bit this year and improve in terms of fantasy but hard to go past DMart

Best bet is pick Martin. He was my second forward pick and has never beem out of my 200+ sides so far. Apart from the fact Martin is so much better he gives you more in cash flexibility should you decide to get rid of him, you won't be trying to trade in order to cash up for your new choice. Martin by a crooked country mile. Cheers. ;)

I think you're dreaming pal!!! The "arrival of Hampson"? I ask you this, what was Carlton's biggest list deficiency last year? Answer: Key forwards. Hampson ain't gonna solve Richmonds problems, either will Vickery. Both average at best. Expect situation no change this year from Sooky Riewoldt and Richmond. Done.

Oh boy  ::)

Richmond aren't relying on Hampson or Vickery. They were one of the best attacking teams last year without them. But Hampson coming in to play a role and Vickery a year older and getting better does mean Riewoldt will be freed up a bit with potential to score more. As Hardwick has said Jack will now be able to play CHF and push up the ground more

As far as SuperCoach goes, I don't think this could be a more one sided answer... Martin by a country mile.

Jroo

Dusty by a mile, but Jroo may be an option as your 4th forward. His scores will improve next year, but he's not on Dusty's fantasy level as yet.

@DCAK, we didn't bring in Hampson to play up forward, we got him for his ruck work. He's actually a decent ruckman and was played out of postion at Calrton, as he Carlton rated Kreuzer and Warknock ahead of him. Hampson will still play forward this year and I think it will help Jroo.

martin will score less this year because of the interchange cap and he cant run out games

He will be rested more deep forward probably will kick more goals so he might score more
