I honestly can't tell  :-\ He has been getting a lot of hype on AFL.com.au & dttalk, if it wasn't for those sources I wouldn't be aware of his existence. He has however played a game for the Swans and is incredibly cheap. Worst case scenario is I trade him after round 1 :)

I do not, especially not if Johnson is fit.

Honeychurch doesn't deserve a mid spot when there are this many mid rookie options. Pretty impressive having Sandi at R3. I don't mind it but some others will.
I think you will be lucky if Laidler, KK, Fuller and Curran all get regular games early. You may need to turn one of these into a mid pricer if they don't look like best 22 material.

Team now stands at:

Cash Left: $111, 100

Any Thoughts?

X. Ellis or O'Rourke?

Strng team. Only weak points are Nic Nat and Clark, niether will play round 1 and bout will miss to many games. since you have the cash I'd turn Nic Nat into Lobbe and Clark into whoever else you can afford.
Definitely go Ellis over O'Rourke!

Team is now:
B: McVeigh, Mitchell, Hanley (D. Swallow is set to play half-back so no value presented anymore), Suckling, KoloKade, Macca (Luke), Fuller, Laidler
M: Gaj, Rocky, Beams, Cotchin, B. Ellis, Daisy, Dom Tyson, C. Beams, Polec, X. Ellis
R: Nic Nat, Grundy, Sandi, Thurlow
F: Danger, Dusty, Buddy, Pav, Fasolo, Bock, Rohan, Kersten (Mitch Clark doesn't look like he'll line up for R1)

Cash Left $151k

I can't trade Nic Nat he is probably the 2nd best value ruck this season, he's so far going to line up for round 1 and I'm expecting a 91-95 average whilst with Lobbe (who will be fantastic) only averaging 88-91.

Yeah Ellis over O'Rourke is good, I heard O'Rourke is having back problems. I have $151k left now I was thinking of taking a punt on Hansen or Birchall for D3, thoughts on that?

I am an eagles fan so I wish you were right. But he was left out of the intraclub match cos his injury is being 'managed', Sinclair's preseason has been stepped up and he has been tipped to miss at least round one. Maybe more. There is no way he will play a full season. He is definitely not a value pick! Sorry but your better off with Lobbe.

really? shower he is such good value, I'll trade to Lobs he is the only other reasonable option in the rucks. Do you think too many people are overlooking Cox? Or will time catch up with him this season?

I think he'll slow down but he's still the eagles number 1 ruck man. he'll do ok, Just not the best pic for fantasy right now
