Opinion Player X vs Player Y

[30BucketsofRo]

Rockliff vs Pendles?
Rocky has a higher ceiling but Pendles is more consistent. Rockliff is 'discounted' but what effect does Beams have on him hitting those 130+ scores? Both 2 of my favourite players in SC. Opinions and rationale greatly welcomed.

I think definitely Rockliff at that price

Pendles & Wines

I agree with Nathan.

Cheers.

Yeah agreed, Rocky at that price is way too good to miss. I'm seeing 125ish from the Rock if fit and firing.

Deledio+Wells+an Opportunity to correct/offload one of Franklin/Tippett/Wells, when their soft early draw is gone.

Vs
Goldstein+Rookie+A potential trade saved

I'm a bit confused as to your scenario because I haven't got the rest of your team, but I think Goldy + rookie over Deledio + Wells. Although I'd try to find a way to start both Goldy and Wells.

 

[Bomber18]

Here's a one I have been considering:

McVeigh + M6 rookie vs Wines + D4 rookie.

I guess it's one to consider after we know quality of rookies post NAB, but would like thoughts anyway

McVeigh is nearly guaranteed to be top 5 defenders, not sure if Wines can make the top 10 mids

Has had an interrupted pre season which has really turned me off him. Had him a few years ago and loved him though..

Yep had him locked until his preseason was delayed due to the injury, definite upgrade target though. Hopefully misses the first couple, plays a few games and then is cherry ripe to snag once we have a couple of fattened cows.

 

[Bomber18]

He had calf injuries causing an interrupted preseason last season too. Didn't play NAB, missed round 1 but still managed to play a 20 games in a row from Round 2.
Not the same player, but Deledio too had interrupted preseasons and still manages to pump out huge averages. Seasoned players know how to handle their bodies to get up for the main season. He's super durable too (missed 4 games since 2010).
With Sydney's great draw early, I'm still tempted to select him even if he doesn't play a NAB game.

 

[Darkie]

Fyfe/Libba vs Parker/Wines

Subject to fitness, easily option one for me.

 

[Darkie]

In light of Wells performance today, what do folks think of the following options:
Boomer F4 & Libba M5
V
Wells F4 & JPK M5
V
Wells F4 & Wines M5 plus $70k

Option one comfortably. Wells will not be a keeper, I think Libba will be.

Interesting you say this Bomber, I've been considering this as well.

It took me quite a while to find a replacement keeper when I removed McVeigh, although ultimately I found one I was happy with.

If one of my intended keepers becomes unviable because of injury, I'm also considering putting McVeigh back in. He has overcome an interrupted pre-season before, as you say, and must be one of the highest probability picks to be a top scorer on his line, especially this year.

Hannebery vs Beams vs Priddis vs Sloane.

Rank them by average at season's end.

 

[Blaze]

Do people think wines or gray will average more this year....With so many getting on wines I'm starting to think about getting off!

 

[Bontempele]

Hannebery vs Beams vs Priddis vs Sloane.

Rank them by average at season's end.

Beams 114 but needs to be traded due to injury, Sloane 111, Priddis 108, Hanners 106.

Priddis is a bit old, and Hanners will struggle to back up such high disposal figures with no previous 105+ history. So I'd go with Sloane for value.

Priddis is a bit old, and Hanners will struggle to back up such high disposal figures with no previous 105+ history. So I'd go with Sloane for value.

Basically this. I have the same order, and 116, 115, 111 and <110. Beams won't play anywhere near 22 based on past history, so I've ruled him out entirely as a starting pick.
