Walker and McVeigh DDP MID/DEF next year do you think?
Given the DEF carnage in the Finals, we need more premiums in DEF.

Roosy!!!

Anyone reckon Howe could be used in an Andrew Walker style role next year? Has a similar style of game so maybe the new coach will make the switch.

Gonna be a superstar, but I doubt he'll play until midseason at best (only got the knee reco done a few weeks ago).

Dangerfield played a lot down Forward this year i cant see how he wont get DPP

THat'd be awesome...I like Gunston if Buddy is out, he kicks more goals when BF is out of the team although delivery from the Hawthorn mids may be down a bit next year (looking a bit slow)

How about Petrie as an option? Bit of a quiet achiever this year but with an average of 102.77, originally priced at 506k would have to be right up.

Apart from a bit of a shaky start (v Coll 59, Gee 91, Syd 41) has had a fantastic year with 11 tons and a few monsters 4x 120, 1x 130, 1x 140, 1x 160 and a 178 in round 10! Widely reported that North had a tough draw so if they manage to get a decent run, he might be worth a starting spot. Has only missed 1 game in 3 years as well.

Should have an up and coming midfield to supply him as well IDIG - the Dish might be worth a look!

Yeah definitely. We should see North improve again so should have a few less quieter games and a few bigger bags. If they have a whole bunch of games at Etihad, i'll seriously consider him. Has decent POD value as well.

As a north supporter I absolutely love the big dish! In saying that I don't think he will be in my starting team. He reminds me a lot like Tex Walker of last year. He can pump out massive scores but I do think there is better value out there.

Wait and see their fixture early before commiting

Whitecross could also be.an option next year.

Ave 85 (2012) was injured late in year. Resumed around rd 13 and played every game to the end of the year.

Ave 61 would make him around the 320-330 mark next year.

May be an option if looking for a good mid priced forward.

 

[Goodie's Guns]

Alex Fasolo??

Has apparently started running again and with the clean out at the Pies should slot back into their 22.

 

[Philzsay]

Given the dramas surrounding Dustin Martin over the last couple of weeks does this factor into anyone's thinking for next year?

Assuming he remains F/M he will be priced at an equilivant price of his 101.8 point average this year. I'm not too confident that he can lift that up by much, particularly since he is not the most stable footballer going around. I'm thinking he is probably going to be inconsistent, hence instead of starting him I may have him as an upgrade target once he gets a dud score dropping his price for three weeks.

I recon he will lift his game to new levels next year and will be a must have. He be in my starting team. Tigers like to give him the ball and with the contract out the way and a bigger tank i think you be silly leaving him out if you want to win the 50k.

Without seeing the fwd/mid chances for next year atm ill say yes to martin at this stage.
if he can work on his fitness to a level where he can play 4 quaters and run out gamed he can average 115 next year.

wouldnt need a trade to another club either, tigers would pay him 600k if can play 4 qrts consistantly

If Buddy gets the Swans, hes a lock in my team next year.

Based on role? I think he might play a little higher up the ground on occasions and tippet in the square.
Based on price he's a lock after this years average.

Based on being a Swans supporter...hahaha.......
I need to get at least one Swans player in my SC team.

Probably the other way around because Tippett will have to play as relief ruck man with Mummy likely to leave.

I think the Swans might go after Shaun Hampson but more likely Billy Longer
Tippett will pretty much play forward most of the time.

With Mumford gone, Pyke is the only recognised Ruckman and logic says no team can survive with only one Ruckman with whatif injury strikes.
