Locking Buddy in?

Wondering how much a lock the great man is. Usually very up and down as all key forwards are, but I wonder...
Will he get cheaper than he already is?
Should we just lock him because of his price?
Is his inconsistencies enough to not touch him all year?
Are the consistencies of potential break out plays such as Peter Parker, Titchell and Zorko the Magnificent better options?

What are your plans for him?

He had a down year last year due to playing further up the field and out of position, he'll back back to a 105+ average this season.

There is one good (t)reason I am reluctant to get him.

PS Not wanting to be too pedantic - but 'great' man?! Really!

Lock him in. I know its been mentioned before about proving himself at the Swans, but i honestly beleive it. hes going to stamp his mark pretty quick, Justifying his move up north.

C'mon Doc he is Buddy.. If he is sleeping next to Jesinta Campbell he is pretty good in my books. Seizures or no seizures :P

Sniff sniff.

Strike 2.

Best friend Chuck is in good form in Sincity.

Yeah - still might get him. Just feel a bit dirty if I do.

Seizures, I'd be hoping to have plenty of those if I were going with Jacinta. Last week he was in 37% of teams. Yesterday it was 23. and today it is 22.51% and dropping all the time. I have him locked and he's staying that way for at least the 1st two rounds and then we'll see what is happening up forward and whether there are in bolters who are flying or whether Buddy looks ok.  Cheers. ::)

Locked - and anyone who hasnt round 1 will have him before the price rise.

So go ahead and waste that trade!! 8)

I'm done with his sub 20 game seasons.

He may score 200 in a game. Big deal, he'll get 0 in 5 others.

Not sure where you pull five from?

In his 9 years since debut, he has played 19 or more games in 6 of them?

GoLions

I don't have him, don't think I'll bring him in either. Just not convinced on how well people think he'll go, think JJK may be a better option for essentially the same price

Danzac

He had seizures before the 2012 season as well. Averaged 115.
I'd be more worried about the hobo beard
