I’ve been running with Gawn and Flynn the entire preseason, with Hunter recently becoming my R3. Not sure I’d be comfortable enough to go deeper than that. There’s a few reasons for that; 1. Gawn has an INSANELY easy start to the season, he faces Meeks, Hunter, Flynn, R.Stanley, Ben McEvoy and...

To me, I think it comes down to whether you're playing for overall or league. I usually just play for league, where the first round isn't a competitive matchup, and so it makes complete sense to still start with Williams as it will have no impact to your W-L record. If you're playing for...

Anybody going in with Paddy Dow? Been named on ball tomorrow for Carlton, I’ll definitely be watching that very closely... This time next week, I can see myself liking him more than Ziebell. Still not sold on Jack!

Good summary overall and I think you hit the nail on the head with Ziebell, Daniher and Impey not needing to average unrealistic numbers in order to be worth it. I currently have all three in my team. The reason I feel ok about this is if one of them starts super poorly, I can downgrade to a...

Which trio would you select? Option 1: Josh Kelly, Max Gawn, Jack Ziebell Option 2: Tim Taranto, Brodie Grundy, Tom Stewart

Does anybody know how team announcements will work? Are they still just going to announce on a Thursday per usual? Not sure if the hubs mean teams won’t need to be announced that early.

Argh, same here, although I’m not really looking at Steven too closely. He looked great tonight but that was in a Geelong team without Duncan, Selwood and (for most of the game) Menegola. That scares me.

87 is not enough, I’m banking on some improvement given that he’s only 22 still. I’d be hoping for a 95. I don’t mind all of the players you’ve listed. I’m not picking Devon Smith, he didn’t play midfield until the Dons got desperate in Marsh 1. They were missing as many as 4-5 preferred...

I’ve gone off Greenwood a little. A contested beast yes but I think he lacks a little footy instinct for finding it. Fair point on being up when their up, having said that I’m feeling pretty good about the 87 average after round 8 last year. They did lose something like their last 17-18 games...

Anyone actually seriously tempted by Darcy MacPherson at $443k? Marsh scores of 132 (79% TOG) and 127 (83% TOG). He played all 22 games last year at an average of 81 and averaged 87 after round 8. In his two Marsh games, he kicked 0.3 and 1.2 - he’s hitting the scoreboard but has been super...

Wrong thread I know but it ties into your question - yes, and possibly more mid time for Zac Williams and maybe an earlier debut for Tom Green. Nobody seemed confident that Taranto would be back any time soon.

That’s pretty much what I’m thinking too. My D1 and D2 is Houston and Docherty, my hope is that they’ll finish the season as my D5 and D6.

Actually makes me feel better in a way. Well, it depends. Is that a reflection of his tank or a symptom of teams carrying 26 players into games during Marsh? Good to know that he would have scored >100 even at 75% TOG...

Risky but Dan Houston is currently my D1, mainly because I just don’t have faith in any of the top defenders. I feel good about Sicily and Luke Ryan, but not good enough. So, I’ll sit back and assess once the season starts. Houston didn’t do anything today to dissuade me either. Per Fantasy...
