There's always unpredictability. Having said that, I don't think you can go into the season without some plan around Danger. Even if you pick him, what happens if he's named and a late out? What happens if he misses 2 instead of 1? What if it's still uncertain? IF you don't pick him, how do...

Ok.... just jotting out some maths for a wild idea: Start 2 guys in the mid-price bracket - say JOM ($315k) and Graham ($268k) - total cost $583k. Hope for Danger to start a bit slower and drop a little in price, maybe $680k by round 6. Mid-price guys to average 80 and increase to $400k and...

Yeah I think that's my thoughts. Certainly as a defender he'd be a must-have. If you could be certain of his midfield role he'd be good for a 105+ average. Will keep a close eye and see where he's named. There's also the FYRL factor to consider as well....

I'm not starting Danger, even if named round 1. Too much unknown for me. Taking the punt on picking him up around 650k at some point. Still unsure exact plan. Might just go guns n rookies and bet on the opportunity arises. Or, take a risk and punt on 2 mid-pricers and hopefully make a little...

Thoughts on Blakely? Went on a tear last year before he got injured with an average over 110+ across 11 games with only 2 sub-100 games. JLT scores are unimpressive but looks like he was playing in defence. Reckon he'll move back to the midfield or has Fyfe pushed him out? I would have thought...

I've joined. Not fussed when the draft is, I'll make time.

Hard to know until teams are named. You'd think Fritsh, Ryan, Rayner and Fogarty are in line to start and should make $150k fairly quickly. Others like Dawson, Stephenson, Venables, Partington, Garlett, Higgins, Keeffe are watchers and consider if named. Throw in Christensen too. There's...

Awkward price for Melksham. Only 4 scores over 80 last year. I also look at games like round 19 and 20 where he got 2 goals and a dozen-odd possessions but score 40 and 53. Go for it if you're keen, you may get that 90. But, even 90 won't be enough for a keeper and that's what I'd be looking...

Makes the case for starting Gaz easier. Seems like the obvious guy to switch to Danger if he gets injured. Starting Danger would be big risk. Lots of money on bench for 1 (or more) weeks. Also no guarantee he starts well. Returning from a hammy and some back issues over the off-season, they...

Danger unlikely for round 1 with a hammy. Makes things interesting. I actually haven't had him all season and been toying with the idea of taking him on. Everyone talking about a must-have due to captaincy scores wasn't convincing me. I'm confident Gawn/Dusty will score just as well. I've...

I'm keen, draft or keeper.

Hi Darcy Fogarty. Welcome to my forward line.

Dunkley is interesting. Scoring potential but with full midfield today playing forward and scored 75 odd. If he was $250k I'd be locking in, but at $296k it's tricky. He's there currently but not sure if he'll stay.

Laird locked. Yeo and Savage fighting out D2 at the moment. Still thinking about Hibbo and Howe. Not a lot else interesting me at the moment. Keeping half an eye on KK, Hanley and Wilson. I reckon if Pittard goes alright in JLT2 he'll get locked in. Can't knock him back at that price.

Smith is currently sitting at F1 for me. I can't bring myself to pick any of the $500k+ guys at this stage. Greene and Buddy I can't see picking up their average. Heeney and Billings have had some hiccups and yet to prove good scoring over 22 games. Agree there's a few in that $400-500k...

At the moment I have Gawn/Sinclair/Cameron. Sinclair assuming he's named solo ruck round one. To be honest, Cameron hasn't looked up to AFL in the JLT so my concern is if Sinclair goes down they go in with some other makeshift ruckman (e.g. Towers). Sinclair has put out good scores in the...

It's going to be a boring year in the rucks (although we have said that before). Gawn/NN/English looks like being 90% of ruck lines at this stage. Defence there's some nice choices with no real standouts, so we might see some nice variety. Midfield also plenty of options as always. Forward -...

Season Highlights: Being part of the Patreon league that finished 2nd. Unfortunately I was in the bottom half so can't take a lot of credit for the success, but nice to be part of such a successful league Season Low-lights: Some stupid mistakes along the way - Heeney traded in but left at F8...

2532 and I pretty much treaded water this week in rankings sitting outside the 10k mark. Big week for scoring!!

Not JJK - finish with GWS and Crows so facing 2 of the best defenders. Not overly excited by any of the others. What about Daniher? In good form and finishes with Suns and Dockers, might kick a bag or two...
