Birch over Macmillan just as he is more proven as a scorer but I don't really like either personally I am taking both Smith and Yeo over either at this stage. Out of Smith and Yeo I think Yeo has more upside. Brodie I think will return to mainly off half back this year with some time through the wing/mids. This role suits him and his scoring and if he can get through without getting knocked out he will score well! Brodie first picked in my def this year

Sloane v Parker - love sloaney but never liked him for my sc for some reason - Parker offers more upside but prob more risk like you say. Fyfe over Pendles easy for me but I always think pendles will drop off a bit but he never does lol

Mummy I think is a good pick as long as your team risk profile allows it! I like Nic Nat at that price though - think he will kick more goals resting forward this year which will ony improve his scoring

I can't judge the fwds at all - just risk everywhere there. Buddy or no buddy is such a tough decision this year as he is well priced...id take him over Greene I prob won't take buddy but not having him scares me a great deal. Wingard over Dahl for price but think Dahl probably shades him for average over the year. Their prices are both fair for there output IMO so no upside but solid picks if they suit your structure

Sloane was actually 4th over-all ranked player in 2014 averaging 115. Bit surprised to read that!

I know he's a gun and from my club but just don't want to pick him for some odd reason! FWIW I don't think he will be impacted that much by the tag this year

I would have them in an identical order. I think Bud could be a trap. Tippett shades him as he can be used as your ruck / fwd swingman.
Chad should ave high 90s but not sure if he can crack the 100 ave

Libba M5 + Crouch M6 (663k) vs. Cripps M5 + 123k (M9 say) Rookie (642k)

In this scenario, Cripps would stay in my side unless LTI.

Hey guys; I've got a question about team structure and such.

Would you prefer:

D2: Yeo
D3: Smith
D4: Wiliams
R2: Lobbe
R3: Grimley
F3: Tippett
F4: Merrett

OR

D2: Smith/Yeo
D3: Williams
D4: Jesse Lonergan
R2: Tippett
R3: King
F3: Merett
F4: Franklin
F5/6/7/8: Grimley.


----

Basically it boils down to Jesse Lonergan v Matthew Lobbe.

Ablett for me Goodies. Probably more fit, better preseason, more proven, better scorer, better ceiling, cheaper, less role uncertainty.

Easily option one.

I'd back Libba to outscore Cripps, and he gives a heap of loose change.

I feel like there's a lot of spec picks in both lists. Too many really. It makes me want to respond with a "one I dislike the least" rather than what I prefer.
