As an example, not all effective kicks score 4 points. From memory, a long effective kick marked by teammate is worth 5 and a short effective kick is only worth 3. I think there's all sorts of similar variations that get applied when it comes to adding up to a SC score.

An effective kick doesn't have to find the target. A kick over 40m to a contest counts also. https://www.afl.com.au/news/144837/stats-glossary-every-stat-explained#:~:text=A%20deliberate%20kick%20without%20taking,HARDBALL%20GET

Not specifically, but if you have some spreadsheet skills you can easily make you own. The starting price = average * magic number (~5,370 to start this year) This gives a total value for the entire competition (from memory $250million or something like that) Magic number changes each week to...

Agree with this. Given his draw... I'm a believer if you're not starting him you shouldn't be trading him in either. With his draw, there could potentially be a 20-point swing between the pre-bye and post-bye period. So if he's going at 130, you don't want to buy him for the time when he does...

L.McDonald has been sacked - replaced with Short which seemed an obvious knee-jerk reaction!!! I also had Sidebottom - so have had to drop him also

Haven't done the stats myself (can do though). But, someone did (Freako maybe?). Turned out midfield went up around 7-9 points on average. Forwards went down a similar amount which is where those points came from. Defenders and rucks were largely unchanged. The distribution changed...

That's my cue! Number of players averaging 120+ : 115-120 : 110-115 2017 - 2 : 1 : 7 2018 - 4 : 2 : 4 2019 - 4 : 2 : 6 2020 - 5 : 4 : 11 Effectively double what we've seen in recent seasons - the only season that rivals it is 2012.

My initial thoughts were the same, but I'm starting to change my thinking a little bit. No doubt there's plenty of guys overpriced - but I think it's primarily midfielders. I'm looking to those who aren't as overpriced as others, guys who should probably get within 5 points of their 2020...

I differ to @Rupert a little and would go option 1. Jelly v TT, Jelly wins. Gawn overpriced, but easy first half of the year and likely to be C the first 9 rounds. Grundy may be underpriced, but he averaged just over 100 playing with Cameron. So a few unknowns this year and I'll be willing to...

I'll consider Flynn for R3, but R2 is a bit too risky. Be a different story if he was locked in to the ruck, but with Briggs and Mummy there it's hard to be confident. Then if there's non-selection or injury you're left without anywhere to go.

Agree with Laird and think it's a good option starting him in midfield given the mid options all look over-priced and lots of uncertainty over who the top 10 will be. Preuss is an interesting one. Mid-price rucks need to outperform mid-pricers elsewhere as it's a big step to reach one of the...

I've got a big watch on both Houston and Doch for Marsh 2. Doch needs a bit more form that he showed. Houston needs to show me he can play 80% TOG to go with a midfield role.

Similar structure here, just rolling with Ryan over Sic currently.

I did similar a few years ago with Witts. It really depends on the rookies. I'll pick them and fill the rest from there. Rookies, then R1/2 with rookie R3, then fill the remaining mid slots, then the must-have FWD and DEF. If there's enough rookies and discounted picks, sometimes there's...

No decisions yet. Maybe Xerri at this stage. If there's a rookie named round 1 I'll probably take them. I am open to having Naismith at R3 if cash allows...

I'm thinking it's just what he's going to do. Also not a big believer in more TOG resulting in more points. Nic Nat and Shiel are good examples where they often score better with less TOG. I see it more about the aerobic capacity, recovery and ability to do repeat efforts when fatigued. Some...

71% TOG is a worry for me. Yes, it's only preseason. But that's also what he did in a few of the games late last year when playing mid. Was hoping he might have built more tank...

I'd argue he's ceiling isn't high at all, in fact he's probably at it already. Interrupted preseason, role variation, tagging, point-sharing, etc. Add to that, there's very few players who don't start in the centre square that can average 110+. And if they do, they are rarely able to back it...

My D1 is Ryan currently. Just so many good options, but all of them have some questions lingering over their head. Lloyd I can't pick currently. The end of the year has put me off. Maybe he's value? Maybe he's about right? Maybe he's sharing more now and is only a 95? I don't know which...

Sun's interest me greatly this year. I think in 2019 they were getting slaughtered when the opposition got the ball on the outside. So they tried to keep it in tight and contested for as long as possible. Hence why their UP were terrible but their CP were so good. I'm sure it affected their SC...
