2015 lock ins.

[_wato]

Would love to have Heppell and he is an absolute jet but not next year for me..

The days will come when Hepp, Jaegar, Dion, Libba etc are all locks.

Yup Heppell looks very strong for next year. If he can clean up his disposal a bit he'd be pretty much top tier stuff

[HotTiges]

Heppell

And Ellis. Both look like a real nice pick next year. Bit like Sloane this year I reckon.

said both a couple of weeks ago.. Both have really stepped up this last month or two

I don't like starting unproven premiums in the mids but if I had to pick 2 that will go to super premium status next year I would say Ellis and Heppell.

Ellis averaging 110 since round 10

Jeff Garlett should be in for a good year after a disappointing 2014.

If he moves clubs I'll consider him. He could be a sub candidate in early games though

I wasn't serious.  :P

Haha well I am!

Was averaging 100.5 in the first 10 rounds last year.
Depending on what his price is he could be a handy cash cow

Gary Rohan!

So 25 pages is a bit much to rifle through.. can we collaborate a bit of a universal list?

Def: Hanley, Mcveigh and Malceski?
Mid: Gaz, Pendles, Selwood, Fyfe, Rocky, Ward?
Ruck: Sauce?, Goldy?, Nicnat (if we get a preseason out of him)
Fwd: Dangerfield, Gray, Parker?, Dahlhaus?, Franklin, Roughy


Defence is a bit iffy, I tend to find the guys playing a lot of midfield time, so a lot of this years defenders may not be eligible next year ie. Swallow.
Rucks are also tricky as they never seem to back up a premo year. Will there be any value picks? (Leuey?) I started with Sauce this year ;)
Forwards have a similar problem to defenders. Who keeps there forward eligibility? I think Danger and Gray will. I'd say the only key forward locks would be Franklin and Roughy.

[Samsturmfels]

B Crouch,B Ellis, Heppell and Greene are lot like good options

[ubeaut]

Don't care what anyone says on here - I'm picking Heath Shaw.

[eg6914]

At this rate we will have 4-5 Uber mids that will be very pricey at the start, the mids certainly will be interesting next year...

Ezra Bray

[Bill Manspeaker]

Tiger Woods

[T Dog]

Tiger Woods

that is acceptable if he brings along some of the ladies he's been with  8)

Looking at that list, the DPP options are really a concern. I'm not conveinced that Hanley, McVeigh, Dangerfield and Parker will keep their DPP for next year.

Hanley has been playing in the guts a lot recently, starting in the square, so hopefully he has enough credits from the start of the season to hold defence status.
Regarding Danger, he started at full forward a few times last year, and even then he probably only played just enough forward time to qualify for DPP so would not be at all surprised if he lost it.
I reckon Parker has nearly no chance of being a forward next year given how much mid time he is getting.

Simpson is one I'm looking to start with, and he should hold his defence status (at least as DPP).
Than a couple of value picks in the mids could be Daniel Wells (depending on how many he plays before the end of the season, and possible discount), and Scott Selwood, who could be priced at an 80-odd average which might be a nice pickup
