Position SC 2021: Forward Discussion
- Thread starter THCLT
- Start date
He's a real if better options don't present type for mine. Not shown to have a high ceiling for price spiking, although a couple of decent games, not terribly consistent game to game and needs to hit an 80 range if he's going to make 200k.
JS should be good, role is decent but if there is a 120k option instead I'm taking that personally.
I also probably prefer to spend the extra 90k odd for Preuss or Heppell as I think there chances of 95 are better than Impey's of 80 and I think both are more likely to have big price spiking scores also.
Always good to have the options though and if there's just nothing out there then he's in play. I think 75 would be a pretty strong result for him and that's going to be a mediocre rookie result.
I also read that as "he's not going to like playing forward but that's what he's gonna be doing a fair bit!

I've jigged around to have Dunkley, Marshall, Ziebell and Daniher + rookies.
Heeney would be good value if he didn't seem to still be battling injuries so he's a pass for me. Impey has scored above 90 only 10 times in 121 matches (Daniher has done it 17 times in 108) and has a season best average of 74. That doesn't seem to mean enough dollars quick enough really vs taking a punt on a 123k guy.

Of course Impey would be first to go if viable rookie options present themselves.
I don't mind having to play a little extra if someone is seemingly best 22.
Cahill , Chugg , Cockatoo , Durdin ,Kelly , Laurie , Macrae , Rowe, Smith etc are all just names at the moment who may or may not be selected Round 1.

I have personally had about as much luck with Heeney as SOK (in BBL) in the past 
.
A healthy Buddy might provide Heeney more midfield opportunity but still waiting on that to eventuate.

Good old SOK , made him captain for the final , and he let me down again.
Hopefully he retires so I am not tempted again.
This isn’t enough for me (a Heeney fanatic) to jump off. Doesn’t sound like there is any new injury, just that he is being eased into and tempering expectations.
Also said that "The target will definitely be the practice game and at least getting some minutes in there."
Heeney is still in

Suspect Ziebell & Daniher will be in the majority of sides so we will all have the same issue.
If they both can get to $ 375 - $ 400k ish Round 7/8 they should be ready to be upgraded , hopefully a few higher priced forwards have dropped to $ 500 k or less.
Not 100% sure on my mids at the moment (Rowell , Taranto) so starting Dunkley , Dusty as a mid could offer "insurance"
Campbell , Hollands (?) , Finrae , Cockatoo plus possibly a few D/F offer options as well.

I agree with this. At his price of 450k, hitting a 94+ (in line with his historical scoring over 4 seasons) is all he needs to do to be a win. Anything pushing 100 is a bonus.
He’s always had interrupted preseasons and still been good enough to bash out at least 94+. No new injuries as yet is my understanding so far.
