Surely you just need him to get through the game first and see how he pulls up.
But said last week if he and Houston are not going to be Top 8-10 defenders why start them both ? Would want to be confident they both go at 95 minimum
Given their starting price they shouldn't get out of reach either.
Career Disposals Avg: 18.47 from 49
SC avg when disposals equal/exceed 19: 110.22 from 23 (1/23 below 80, 9/23 below 100, 8/23 120+)
SC avg when disposals below 19: 70.77 from 26 (16/26 below 80, 24/26 below 100)
Ryan’s appeal is boosted by kick-in duties, taking the third-most of any player in the AFL from Rounds 1-18 before his injury, with only Shannon Hurn and Jake Lloyd taking more.
I think if you genuinely had somebody in your team that is an ultra POD or Super POD (Under 5%) even the day before they suddenly jump to become a POD (5%-10%) or no longer a POD at all then you can complain about others jumping on.
With the example of Petracca, if you brought him in on Friday when he was 1% then you could complain on Saturday night at which point he had jumped to 7%. Now he isn’t even a POD at 13% and rising.
For the record, I had him for at least one month before he became popular.
