One thing to consider is if Creepy has lost his mojo a bit so far this year - I saw something the other day to suggest he had maybe?
Agreed - Crowley hasn't been he factor so far this year he was last. His interrupted pre season may be impacting his running ability(?)

Your observations would seem correct. Quote on superfooty:

'Tagger Ryan Crowley was one of the main reasons why the Dockers were so feared last season but he has struggled to stop the oppositions prime movers this season. In 2013, Crowley kept his opponent to fewer than 20 touches in eight of 23 matches but in 2014, his opponent has won more than 20 touches every game'.

Stat isn't that remarkable as 8/23 is only 35% of games but it does go to show he might not be has damaging has he has been in the past. Having said that, Rowsus stat on Selwood against Freo is a lot more impressive and I think I will be waiting a week.

His price and output are nearly a match now. I think you just ride him out, and use him as one of your last upgrades.

Hey Rowsus.. What do you think of Ward at $484k?

Cheap and good POD.. But will he be a top 10 mid?

Hey Rowsus, what are your thoughts on Zorko and Dahlhaus? Who do you think is likely to average more for the rest of the season?

Hey Krieks,
Ward's priced well for what he'll likely produce for the rest of the season, but I doubt he'll make top 10 for the last 17 rounds.

Hey MrM,
I think Zorko might average around 91-92 for the remainder of the season, and Dahlhaus around 89-90.

Hey Rowsus just wondering what you think of Robbie Gray? Thanks
Hey BigL,
I think he is playing to his shown potential this season, but I will be avoiding him.
Firstly, he is priced to what he is scoring. Ideally we want to trade in players that are under-priced, not correctly priced or over-priced.
Secondly his game count puts me off. From 2010 it reads: 11, 22, 2, 18. I think he's a risk of needing trading out if/when injury hits again. Which is all the more reason to want value when grabbing him.
Those that grabbed him early at $442,600 have done well, but I think you are inviting trouble if you pay $500k for him now.

Thanks, I just really want to get rid of Roughy (Don't see him being a top Fwd) and ur thoughts of Dahlhaus earlier weren't too reassuring so thought Gray might be good option especially with Port doing so well.

I've been a long time lurkerer and damn I love your work Rowsus! Never ceases to amaze me with how much effort you go through with all the analysis you go do!

Anyways my question to you is who do you think will score more after their bye out of Brent Harvey, Drew Petrie and Dusty? Planning to get one of these guys for Higgins with money not being an issue. Thanks in advance Rowsus!

Thanks for the kind words, OMW.
Looking at the players histories, and what I have them projected to score for the season:
Petrie, last 4 seasons: 56 (only 2 games), 94, 95, 103 - projection 89
Harvey, last 4 seasons: 100, 101, 96, 104 - projection 101
Martin, last 4 seasons: 78, 99, 89, 102 - projection 95
The projections are just my own adjusted figures from my preseason "guesstimates". Partly adjusted on a formula, partly adjusted on gut feel. All 3 are reasonably reliable as far as not missing games is concerned, so if the projections turn out to be in the ballpark, we end up with:
Petrie averaging around 100 from here.
Harvey averaging around 101 from here.
Martin averaging around 98 from here.
As you can see, there isn't much in it. Harvey just on points, Petrie easily on value.
Good luck :)

I have a question Rowsus :)

What is the highest average that a player has finished the season with?

Cheers in advance.

Just got a quick question if Roughy, what's wrong with him? Is Buddy's absence affecting him? Are there any stats to support a role change? Or is he just in a form slump? Averaging 82 I can't see how I can hold him much longer

Thank you rowsus! Going to go for Petrie after this as as a pod since I think others will be scared of his up and down scores. I'll have 4 key forwards in Pavlich, Roughy, Roo and Petrie after this but I'll take bite the bullet and get angry later when it all fails :p

Petrie no chance of averaging 100 from here. 31 year old tall who is showing no signs of his previous scoring potential. His highest score this year isn't even above 100. So unless its as a F7 to loophole I would avoid Petrie.
