I would watch Cyril's preseason... 72%TOG in 2014 for 88 points. If he is "as fit as he's ever been" I reckon he's worth the risk even if you burn a trade.
Personally , he is one of the best players to watch. Excitement Machine.
But he will tear a hamstring !

Good POD if you chuck him as F4 behind Franklin, Lids, Goddard, Swan, Martin etc... If he were to stay injury free he would go 100+ easy and you'd be flying. Watch list for me atleast.

Been like this for 4 years.

Rioli one of my favourites to watch to and would be in the majority of teams each year if it wasn't for those damn hamstrings. He makes footy look easy.

If it pays off you will get a massive advantage as fully fit he would be the best forward in SC. However if your wanting to bet on him staying fit, the smart money is on , he will go down at some stage.

Soo much upside but the downside will likely happen.

I'm seriously looking at the Bont. In recent years the second year rule has flown out the window cords and all. Beefed up for day 1 of pre season = professional.

Tom Mitchell a better option imo

Yeh like Mitchell better also. Just needs to play and he's a pretty good buy.

I know! Such temptation though! I'd look like a genius, my crystal ball keeps showing me a muscle tearing, might be a hammy....

I know Cloke is 392k but surely he gets a look in at that price. The delivery he got this year was shocking. Might improve now that Collingwood have a decent midfield again (greenwood in, Adams and Thomas improving, Swan back near his best) could see Cloke back 86-94? Let's not forget easily top 3 key forward at his best.

Only doubt is he was good in a good team. If you think Collingwood will be top8 get him in because he will play a main part of that.

Worth a look.

you would normally look at him but with all these midfielders available I would rather pay up for a guy like lids or goddard who should be safe 100+ midfielders forwards

I would only consider a 400-500k fwd (besides Swan) if you think they can average 100+ and be a Top 10 forward. If they don't, then you need to upgrade them eventually so why even bother?

For mine, Tom Mitchell playing every week and Devon Smith are the only two I think are worth the shot, but I don't think it's worth risking it

Just grab 500k+ premo's who you can set and forget
