yeah, agreed. It's just that I'm hesitant to roll into that many premo mids. My logic being try to buy the top6. I've got Dusty, Whifield, Heeney and Walters in there as top 6 material. Buying Petracca means dumping Smith or TJL to bench/trade at some point... both might be a step too far... or just straight out correct as they score more.... do you think it's the latter?
If you are confident on Simpkin and Petracca maintaining their form, then they seem like great selections due to their current centre bounce attendances- C Petracca 31/42 (Gawn,Oliver,Viney, Brayshaw the only Melb players with more than 2) and J Simpkin (2nd behind Goldy) in conjunction with their current price.
This season I wouldn’t be too concerned about selecting the top 6 in each position instead prioritising value to ensure the susceptible rookies are moved off the ground sooner rather than later thus helping to maximise overall points. Walters is a great upgrade target and regarding Heeney it is dependent on whether you are willing to endure the potential low scores if he manages a performance similar to RD2.
T Lynch I would be happy to trade and as for D Smith his ability to provide cover on multiple lines as well as being utilised as a M9/F7 should come in handy if an opportunity presents in the latter stages of the season.
