Thanks Row - you make some interesting points.
I am usually very averse to overpaying, but I did start two players last year that I thought I was overpaying for. I did it on the basis that I couldn't find better starting picks (it's obviously a relative game, and I disliked all but one ruck), and had the cash to do it, as you say. It sounds like your thoughts are similar.
I'm pretty sure there are some very good coaches that would (/do) take a contrary view ... sometimes it's hard to know whether, for example, they do well because they are less dogmatic about it, or whether they would do better again if they didn't overpay. My sense is that paying a risk premium for a lock top scorer is quite a viable strategy in the right circumstances, albeit that I am much more inclined to try to receive a risk premium than to pay one.

Using KLo's planner (http://www.supercoachscores.com/threads/3329-Merry-Christmas) I get this:
Averaging 100 he will make 157k end of round 6, and 184k end of round 8 (priced at 464k before his bye).
Averaging 95 he will make 139k R6, 163k R8 and be 443k.
Averaging 90 he will make 121k R6, 142k R8 and be 422k.
Averaging 85 he will make 104k R6, 121k R8 and be 401k.
I don't know exactly what MN settings this sheet uses but that should serve as a rough guide.

I'd be surprised.
Hannebery's improvement in the past two seasons is nearly totally down to him lifting his fitness levels. When they waiver, his score drops significantly. Pendlebury around that same age would still mange to eke out a 100+ score, even when playing under a cloud. Hannebery hasn't shown an ability to do that.... yet!
I actually don't think Mitchell leaving will affect Hannebery one way or the other. I don't think he really depended on Mitchell too much, to feed him the ball etc., so Mitchell not being there shouldn't alter things for him.

whats your personal opinion on brodie grundy?
had a very good run after the bye not scoring below 88
and the rule of the same rucks are never the top 2 2 years in a row could be true with grundy being 1st or 2nd
and clearly has improvement by not giving away so many free kicks and is at a good age and games played amount

thanks for the reply great to know you agree about grundy being a good pick
i actually have a 2 for 1 hope thats ok
whats your opinion on jasper pittard?
hardly been seen in any teams due to rd 9 bye?
do you think that makes much if any difference?
much if any chance of a forward tag in your opinion?
2nd one is jeremy howe
another one who hasnt been seen much around with collingwoods backline from last year changing quite a bit will that help or hinder him in your opinion?
surely he doesn't play forward again after playing so well in the back line?
