Hickey

[Daniel123]

Is anyone starting with hickey?? Playing melbourne rd 1 expect him to score around 80 most weeks !

Thoughts??

[tor01doc]

My 2 options. My for R'1' are Goldy or Hickey.

Don't mind him but just don't expect too much

I've gone Hickey, last minute change had Mumford :'(

Someone has to get points for St.Kilda. A few up for grabs with Hayes, Montagna, Steven and co not playing this week...Steven for 6-8 weeks actually. Mind you St.Kilda probably will score the lowest in terms of SC pts this year. Then there is Longer. Not for me.

Gold indicates Longer is injured

News to me. Just visited AFL Injury list...Gluteal strain...Test.

Yeah I am starting Hickey

If he can go 80+ most weeks I am happy - just hope he doesn't turn into a real spud because then I will be kicking myself that I didn't start Hampson instead, but I am confident he can go 80+ and if so, I'm happy

[shaker]

He will be good as long as Longer does not share the ruck duties

[Ricochet]

I'll be loopholing HMac so if he doesn't fire, I'll be relying on Hickey for a nice score. He should go 80+

[RaisyDaisy]

That's why I have picked him too, don't think Longer is even in their best 22

I have not got him Daisy because of the Longer threat

I reckon Stanley will give Hickey a chop out from time to time, and that's why I just cant see Longer in their best 22

Could be wrong, but just gotta remain optimistic now after missing out on Hampson

I don't see Stanley, Longer and Hickey being in the same team too often if at all. I see them all getting a go through 2014, probably in different combos and positions. The Saints are clearly at the bottom of the heap and are looking to the future. Bit of water to go under the bridge before 2015 but will have a clearer picture of Saints No 1 ruck and system with these three by then.
Atm Hickey looks a reasonable pick but I'm not tempted at all.

Longer not named and not even listed as an emergency makes Hickey very very tempting.

Was very happy to see that - backed Hickey in thinking that would be the case, never thought Longer was best 22, now just hoping Hickey can score similar to HMac and Hampson
