Hey guys, really struggling to select my F4 at the moment. Forward line is currently:

FWD: Dangerfield, Martin, Kennedy, , Caddy, Higgins (Kennedy-Harris, Impey)

Gunston looks like he is set for a big year with more ball coming his way and showed the other day (even though it was only Melbourne) that he could still go 100+ when only kicking the 1 goal which is a positive sign indicating he is moving up the ground and getting more marks and possessions.

Buddy on the other hand i don't see going huge playing as a permanent forward plus the smaller ground at the SCG. However the problem is Buddy has a history of going 110+ and if he managed to get back to his best (even 100+) I would pretty much be stuffed starting without him. His first game is also against GWS and with tippett out he could go BIG!

Cheers guys!

franlin does not have a particularly good record against gws, av 108 and 3 goals, this decision depends on how u would use the money saved on gunston, if they were the same price i would go buddy but they r not which is why i have gunton.

In 9 years Spuddy has only played 7 times in Sydney.

5 at SCG and 2 at Homebush.

Hard to gauge how he will like the grounds.

Prefer Pav at this stage.

I seriously don't understand all the buddy hype? I know at his best he is great but at Sydney he is completely unknown.
Pre-Season hasn't been great. Confirmed of having Seizures  :o Missed so many games over the last 4 Seasons. He is underpriced for a reason! i want to see something from him beforehand. Upgrade target for me.

On the other hand i can only see Gunston getting better and improving on last season so it's an easy decision for me
