He pretty much broke out last season. I'm keener to grab the proven premiums know and upgrade to guys like Wingard if they're maintaining their form from last season.
he has so much more potential though..

Not doubting that for a minute. Just saying I'd rather start with the proven players and upgrade to the blokes having big seasons.

I think it's better start with Wingard and mid season upgrade(if you even have to) to a premo thus you will save money on a premo trade and if Wingard's doing good then he will cost moar

Ricochet

I agree, wingard has had a little breakout already. There isn't much value in starting with him now

Adamant

So does anyone like David Swallow as a breakout contender? I'm not a fan of trying to pick breakouts, but he looks like the best option in that price range down back.

What if Wingard gets a ton more attention nd averages an inconsistent 70 odd? By starting with proven premiums, you're getting points on the board early.
In a format with limited trades, you really don't want to be screwing around sideways trading players you've paid a lot for. I'm just putting my view forward (the one you asked for) so I don't get really why you're debating the point :P

Yes very good point but, good luck to the defender playing on the Boss!

Most of these players are far too risky, my breakout candidate is Seedsman.

Yeah I'm a massive Seedy fan. Could argue he's already broken out though after averaging 89 unsubbed last season!

Back to the drawing board. Memph's hot tip - get on Marley Williams now that Seedsman has gone down.

How long do they reckon Seedy is going to be out for?? Maybe Harry O to break out further now??

6 weeks until he can resume training, and he'll probs come back through the vfl... so I'd say the first month of the season.

Okay cool. Could be upgrade option then if he cops a few vests on his way back in. Was never in my starting side personally, but was always watching  ;)
