Personally think this is even more interesting. There are so many decent options this year that teams will be really unique.  Some will back the older stars and some will back potential breakout players

you cant go too wrong with choices like Goddard v Lids.

I was looking forward to punting on guys like Walters and hoping they turn into 90+ forwards.

until one gets injured/suspended and it doesn't affect 90% of teams

RaisyDaisy

Yeah I feel like with so many options this year there are going to be heaps of cookie cutter forward lines to begin with

Deledio, Buddy, Swan and Goddard seem to be the most popular 4

I'd love to start Gray, but 600k seems too much to start with

But now it comes down to luck, rather than doing research and being willing to take a risk and see if it pays off or not.

yep that's it. If I pick lids and he goes down injured and someone else has goddard and he is fine my team gets hit hard for no reason.

instead if we had less options you could punt on Roughead, Gunston, Walters etc.. and than it comes down to who breaks out.

There's still just as much research/risks. Swan, Boomer and all the other oldies are risky because of age. Bennell, DSmith and other breakout youngsters are risky. even Gray is risky because he's unproven. Buddy can be a rollercoaster so you have to get your timing right when you bring him in/start him. Its just as hard, it's just instead of picking the right borderline premos/premos you know have to pick the right premos/elite premos

Jackross10

Swan Lids Goddard Gray Boomer and Buddy

quinny88

Looks like Boomer might be a nice P.O.D

Nige


meow meow

Probably should have put Tom Mitchell on the list. Daisy an outside chance too, depending on fitness and role.

WizzFizz

dusty could go 110+ with improved de% and is a cheaper alternative to lids

enzedder

Looks straightforward...Gray, BJ, Lids, Boomer, Dusty, Buddy...for mine.
I'll start with Swan like everyone else and we'll all have the same forward line by year's end.
Bartel and Roughead are the only others I can see pushing the top 6.

T Dog

The trick looks like being getting a POD or 2 who fire and are not in the top 6 selections  8)

redfield

I can understand people going against Harvey but I think he'll be up there again. I went with Gray, Harvey, Martin, Swan, Franklin and other but I'm super paranoid this year for some reason and don't want to say who the 'other' is.

There are 5 votes for other. I've got a sneaky that I hope to see top 6 too but it's probably wishful thinking.
