Well there is clearly some risk with Rich at 436K. Even taking into account his move to the backline (where acceptable primo scores are lower) he would still need to improve 10ppg to prove a decent pick. He has got a few reasons that make you think there might be an upside. 2nd year back...

Devon "The Pressed Meat" Smith. Priced at $480K odd. If you let him run against you and he goes well you should still be able to pick him up for under $550K at some stage. If you pick him and he's a bust you're pretty much screwed ...

Interesting. I have Yeo in - Rich as first emergency - and Smith as nowhere at the moment.

I'm wondering the same about the Tiges this year. We had a pretty blessed run with injuries last year ... the smart money seems to be saying the cats, the pies, the suns, port, GWS are likely to improve ... so which teams make way ... and what effect does it have on SuperCoach prospects?

Yeah. Currently have him as one of my three primo forwards. Looking forward to what the boys have to say when they break it down a bit more in the forwards podcast.

Completely season defining call for me this one ... argh! PS. I'm a bit of a sheep. Almost certain to opt in I reckon. :-/

The Donkey was fairly bullish (pun intended) on the podcasts today about this guy. Haven't got him in my team at the moment but I have to admit he is the one in the backline that I've been wondering if I can fit in. Pro: Midfielder available in the backline (almost enough said) Priced under...

Yeah. That is how I'd line them up. With the emphasis on the gap between Libba and the other two. Libba is a genuine fallen primo. Like Beams and Swan the last couple of years could be season defining and from all reports he seas to be fit. The other two have never posted at SuperCoach keeper...

I know there are one or two Bullies fans sniffing around these forums - I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on Dollhouse this year. The Donkey went pretty close to dismissing him in the Podcast today. But I'd had him pretty close to locked in as a good thing in the forward line ... Pros...

Yeah. Fair enough. Had Beams and Libba that year. I guess if he looks fine in the NAB I'm pretty much going to have to take him. Could break my whole season if /when he fires at that price. I bet against Swan last year and that didn't go too well.

Yeah. Even JJ is a pretty big call. Kudos to you if it comes off.

Yeah. Don't go there. Or there.

Nope - not going to call you out for being a Bullies fan. I'm just a bit gun shy because some people take more than the year to fully recover from the knee. I know the training reports are pretty positive so he is definitely still in consideration. Just ... I don't know ... I'm just thinking out...

M4TT replied in a different thread: ↑ The only players they mentioned that I'm not so keen on are Lids (love him as a player but the constant talk of niggles combined with a 600K price tag is off putting) and ... Libba (is that crazy? Coming back from the knee and plenty of other guns in the...

I've broken the Libba discussion out into a standalone thread - I'll quote your reply there if that's OK ...

OK ... on the podcast The Donkey called him out as part of the "triple lock" ... but can anyone else contemplate a serious case being made against him? Love Libba as a SuperCoach player and had him from the start two years ago but I've kinda got cold feet in him this year ...

Very close to my side at the moment but I've got two primo rucks and Danger in the midfield and no Carlton "promos" in the backline.
