I agree Dollhouse is the clear first choice but the DT/SC ratio and handball to kick ratios don't put me off Macrae. As a young midfielder available in the forward line I think he's still a strong pick despite these factors. What is the bottom end of what you think he'll average (as long as he doesn't get injured)?
2017 Forward Primos
- Thread starter cactus
- Start date
Prolly much the same as last year. Still a likely top-10 fwd but not necessarily top-6.
His best DT numbers came when he spent most of his time on the wing and as an outside on-baller. Under Beveridge he has increasingly spent more time as a HFF - sometimes, but rarely, in the pocket - which affects his output.
Beveridge rotated 13 players through the mid-fwd spots last year. Bont spent the most time as a mid and he only spent 70% there. With the development of the younger players - Dale, Daniel, Dunkley, McLean - all of whom have played 2 seasons or less, I can't see Macrae getting more mid-field time than last year. I can see him getting less.
On the plus side I think his KE is on the up - no proof, just my impression - which helps in SC.

Caddy had a 30 odd point couple of possessions in the last quarter which has inflated his score a bit but still liked his role looks fit and ready to go, still very much on my watch list, reading around the different forums a lot of people weren't happy with it.
i mean, as you see in my sig - I'm kinda scared about taking any of them, as they will be rotated through positions and share the points around ...
I have no idea. I don't remember what i had for breakfast. Bare with me i will track it down and give you a more definitive answer.
Just tracked down where this "went down dawg!" You asked for someone to lay down some lyrical genius, and i "brought it!!"

I'm pretty sure it smashed avo and a chai latte.
Go the avo but would need a double espresso for a bit of a pick me up!

You're my kind of guy Doddy.
Love your signature too.
You are the man, Doddsworth! . Must explain, I was lookin' for Dergies fans!Just tracked down where this "went down dawg!" You asked for someone to lay down some lyrical genius, and i "brought it!!"
Had him locked since my first draft and saw nothing to change that last night. I was actually worried that his ownership would double after last nights game but if people are talking him down then that makes me happy.
Think I might start JJK this year!
Is one of the top overall total points fwds the last 3 years which just cant be ignored!

100% agree, he looks quite at home at the Tigers. Never reached his full potential hopefully he can do that at the Tiges
