Opinion Player X vs Player Y

I would have them in the following order: Lyons>Wells>Anderson...obviously dependent on their showing during the NAB matches and whether they figure in round 1 teams.
FWIW...Lyons is high on my watch list, been sub affected and may get more of a go through the m/f role...will watch him (and the role he plays) closely during the NAB.

greene vs barlow vs motlop vs d smith
greene - if he stays a small forward isnt a option? does johnson take that role and greene replace treloar?
barlow - role seemed to change last year?
motlop - constancy and cant take a tag but with danger and a fit selwood?
d smith - shiel comes back but treloar gone?

Personally I have Toby Greene out of that lot, bit of X factor about him, a player on the improve.
Johnson may be parked around the forward line somewhere to weave his magic.
Barlow, now too slow for the game. Looks out paced to me.
Motlop, very hit and miss.
Devon Smith, maybe, like Shiel but.

Great suggestion. Libba is ridiculous value and a potential keeper, Rocky is also great value and a genuine captain option.
I would take Barlow, Smith and loose change. Montagna is overpriced and can be up and down from year to year. On KK, there are a lot of players to fit back into the Suns side. I personally think it's hard to see Smith and Barlow underperforming their prices.
The second option looks much better to me, because Libba is so cheap. Wines v Libba looks a no brainer to me (take Libba) although I am currently running with NN as R1 and am highly unlikely to take Goldy at his price.
What Ben said. The Roos seem to need what he offers, so it's just a matter of fitness.
This is true, and a fair point, although he was much dearer then. He's basically a rookie with much better JS as I see it.
Selwood easily if he looks fit going into round one - Selwood is one of the best SC performers in the comp over the last five years or so, probably only behind Ablett, Pendles and maybe Swan.
An interrupted preseason could weigh on Selwood, although I believe he had one in 2014 as well (so it need not be a dealbreaker). He started 2014 with four scores of 125-160, and ultimately had his best season, at over 120. The Cats imports should help him as well.
