Taranto vs parker?
Parker quite easily. Higher ceiling, more consistent and you do not have to stomach the poor disposal efficiency by Taranto on a weekly basis thus limiting his ceiling. Less reliant on accumulating a lot of the ball as he has many avenues to a good score if kept quite such as contested marks, goals, tackles, etc.

Taranto vs parker?
I'm weighing up the same decision. Taranto's a fairly known quantity, he'll continue to average ~100 unless he has to play forward or by some miracle he starts hitting a target more than half the time.

Parker I'm less sure on. Last week showed how well he can score when played as a pure inside mid, I'm just not sure Sydney will stick with him in that role. Parker and Mills were both very good against the Lions (at least on the stats sheet), Kennedy played a fair bit of midfield, and the Swans still lost the clearances badly in a couple of key periods. That makes me wonder whether they'll go back to what they'd been doing with Parker for the first month.

Ok:
1. = JHF > McComb; Daicos > Sicily; Brodie > Parker

2 = JHF > McComb; Daicos > Sicily

3 = JHF > MCComb: Hewett > Sicily; Daicos> Parker

Something else?

Very strong side , mids are as good as any

Personally would still do :-

Hayes - > Curtis
Xerri - > Parker

Dixon keeps the link with English when he returns.

Move MacDonald & Ward on the following week to Carroll/Clark/Hamilton/Rioli etc builds the bank then look at a couple of defender upgrades.

Daicos & Martin keep scoring well enough upgrade them both at their Byes.

Doing extremely well from where you were a few years ago , quick learner , well done.
Why thank you, got to admit couldnt have gotten to where i am now without u or the rest of SCS helping me throughout the seasons

Definitely agree that 2020 was the best year to learn as it was the most chaotic

Thanks for the advice 👍

Incredible effort to get dropped when your team has about 18 healthy bodies
I wouldn't have thought they could drop him and play top up players. What if other clubs decide a VFL ruck is better than a 19 year old just drafted.

Pulled the trigger this week

Had zorko the whole week... and changed to Dale because I can't trust him being 33 and the lions resting him because they are flying.

So... daicos, Horne and xerri for Dale, Parker and McComb.

To go with the crowd and take Cripps (+ cash) or try something a little different and go Walsh. Hmm 🤔

Dont see many trading in Cripps over Parker. Would have thought he is the better option unless you already have him.
I've got Cripps. Wondering if there's Brodie is worth trading to accommodate Parker and Sicily at this stage. Would you mind having a look at my post above #471 Courts?
