Profile

Having now signed a four year contract, Lycett is set to become a major part of the Eagles moving forward. He cemented his place in the starting line up after Round 13, averaging 82.5 from that point on and finishing the season with his first ever ton. Scott was a regular goalkicker with 13.5 from his 12 games so shouldn't have a problem maintaining DPP. With Cox now out of the way he has the opportunity to increase his hitout numbers and at just 22 the sky seems to be the limit for Lycett in 2015 and beyond. He presents as a speculative R1 for those looking for value and willing to take a risk, or maybe as a forward.

Pros - More opportunities in 2015, 5 of his top 6 career scores came in the second half of 2014

Cons - Still young, low tackle numbers


Prediction - 79-84

[Sweetness]

Probably too risky for my liking.
Depending on pricing of Leuy/Kruze could go with the three pronged ruck attack.

[Spinking]

Really like him, but not sure he's worth a punt when there will be other decent mid priced rucks available. Can see him being more fantasy relevant in a year or two.

[Ricochet]

Yeh will take a bit for Scott to be fantasy relevant. Will only consider if NicNat goes down

[pommyadam]

given that he got games because they were blooding through a replacement for Cox
(and apparently he whinged about leaving if he didn't) then how long is it till Sinclair tries it?

not for me, particularly with Krooz and Leuey both being cheaper than him (or should be)

Both Lycett ans Sinclair have re-signed with West Coast

[Mr.Craig]

Lycett is quite a bit better than Sinclair.
