Opinion Forward Discussions

I've also got the jitters with Franklin and have removed him. As much as I like seeing him run through the midfield, his magic happens at half forward and when he's taking grabs and bombing goals.

Sydney have a pretty favourable draw saw early though which I why I had him in the first place..

Who do we think the best forwards below 496,900k are

 

[whiteTiga2k]

AnYONE considering Jake Stringer?

 

[Blaze]

Honestly not a huge fan of any under 500k forwards but if I were to pick one I'd pick Boomer

.....and herein lies the secret to Supercoach 2016. In the last 2 years the top 10 Forwards have been dominated by DPP, this year all sub $500K are non noteworthy. If you crack the code let me know.

Yep currently in my team not locked but likely, just want to see his role in next 2 nabs think he's built his tank and will play more up the ground , ave 80 last year think he will at least 90 but got a feeling he could go bigger

Boomer, Tippett (especially if you include the ruck cover benefit) and Buddy in my view.

yes as he is under 496k

really think he will get his mind and body right this year especially after that article about him

It seems a lot of people have gone off Franklin since his first NAB game. If he scored a ton in that first game would he have become a lock?

 

[jaca]

He hasn't changed for me. He's a likely but watch. NAB1 was his first game in a long time, I'm sure they were just pleased to have him out there. Be good to see how he goes on Friday.

Kept him in so far. Want to see what else he shows in the rest of NAB before deciding. Have a few options for his spot.

Was always Buddy v Z Merrett for me. So right now it's Z Merrett but could end up being Buddy.

 

[Jurn Stern]

Fair enough. Word from the McVeigh article was that he was the stand out in match simulation playing as a deep forward, but I guess time will tell.

 

[fjholden]

Nick Reiwoldt becomes a point of interest given that he will be going up to a wing. Has the game suited to SC scoring as his career shows and even at 33 I think he is well under value. Playing every game is the only concern like Bartel.

Thoughts??

I hopped off Buddy, after previously declaring him a lock. However, it was mainly a structural thing for me rather than his poor NAB (NAB shouldn't matter one bit for Buddy). With all of the likes of Cockatoo, Menadue, Kerridge, McCarthy looking like decent forward rookie options (also keeping in mind the likes of Bennedy, Wells, Duggan), I added another premium to the defence and chopped Buddy. Depending on if an extra backline rookie pops up (with Broad looking a bit less likely) might bring Buddy back. I hope he has another poor NAB to bring his ownership numbers down as that was a factor too.
