Break out Players

[Nige]

Since I'm more of a SC guy, I reckon I'll use my DT team to try out a few players and take a couple of risks on breakout contenders and the like.

Guys like Prestia, Seedsman etc.

David Swallow for me in 5th year after being number one draft pick.

After having a bit of a think about it I'm actually thinking Swallow could be a decent pick down back as well. Don't like picking breakout contenders but if I had to choose one then he would be it.

Yep, his DPP eligibility makes him a tasty option. If he remains injury free during the pre-season then there's a high chance he'll regain his position in the midfield.

I think you'd be better off doing that in AF :P

Me too, but I'm fearless.  ;)

Was thinking of including more breakout players in sc, but only af now.

Might be worth considering Rohan

SYDNEY Swans great Jude Bolton believes Gary Rohan will emerge and stamp himself as one of the most exciting players in the AFL in 2014.

"Gary's a phenomenal talent. It was great to see him exposed to footy again last year. He's been around for a while, but he's really matured as a player," Bolton said.

Seems people rate Darling more than I thought. I thought he was shower at fantasy? Relies on goals too much.

It's because theres rumours he may be playing midfield this season.. But i doubt it.. All just pre season talk.. Max he will improve his average is 7-8..

[essendon2]

Darling, Hawkins and Masten in the RDT atm ;)

[Toga]

Wingard is the only one in my side at the moment and I am seriously considering starting Brandon Ellis over Cotchin, but might leave that for AF given trades are limited in this game... David Swallow the only other I'm considering but haven't fitted him in yet.

As others have said I'm not sure breakout contenders are gonna be the way you do well in Real DT!

Yes, hahaha, I can't see Darling playing Mid, not with Sheed/Ellis coming in and Hurn more likely to play before him, he has to play almighty well to even warrant selection up the field. Will watch with interest though.

Its not suggesting he play as a sole mid, its a midfield rotation. And it's based on him training with the midfield group. He certainly has the size and athletic ability to be a sole midfielder but he's not there yet.

But one day Darling will be a very very good midfielder and no longer a deep forward

[_wato]

Yeah, but will he be part of the midfield rotation? I just can't see it happening?
Selwood, Masten, Priddis, Rosa, Shuey, Gaff, Ellis, Sheed, Hurn etc are all in front of him.

I think they can't afford him in the middle, he'll have to stay deep forward, just like Fyfe is a natural forward and could take over from Pavlich, but they can't let him leave their midfield.

Wow I had no idea that Darling would even be considered for a move into the midfield :o

Yeah that's my thoughts exactly, hahah. Little weird to see him in the mids if it does happen!
