That's assuming he no improvement at all in him considering he averaged 80 without his sub game last season.
If he averages 90 from his starting price, he's a keeper for me given the inconsistency in defence. At worst he is a very low priority upgrade.
I have him scoring (only in his non sub games )
43, 64, 57, 74, 63, 117, 57, 44 ,34, 64 ,103, 61, 79, 81, 63, 91, 48
For a total of 1143
Average 67.23529
only 6 scores over 70 is a worry and he was used as a tagger
From rnd.17 on he played mainly as a mid and averaged 77SC.
Plus according to the Prospectus:
15th best first possession to clearance rate of top 120 first possession players
kick rating third-best when under pressure of top 90 (not clear what 90).
I think he can only get better - if he plays mid
EDIT: Just saw the Eade twitter session on the Suns web-site. Lonergan OK for rnd,1 and willl take Swallow's role.

Watching the Cats and Dons game I think we maybe looking into what the Dons backline may cop all season. Which then poses the question are the Dons rookies really worth looking at on any line? They will get flogged a lot this year and the scores will show that, so I'm unsure if they will be the best cash cows. Time will tell though I'm sure.
Dea top scored for them today. Worth a look. Hartley scored well again. Brown not so much. Good day up there?
Missing: Stokes, Kelly, Goddard, Zerrett, Leuenberger, JoeyD, Gwilt, Parish, Zaka. Our best 4 players are in that list. So don't read too much into it IMO.
Geelong did that to us last year when we didn't have any suspended players!
I don't think your best would've made tht much difference Imo, the Cats just looked way to classy today. I still have Hartley and Brown locked in for the BL but having serious thoughts about the other lines. One thing that was on show today is the fact the Dons weren't playing the Blues thats for sure.
Hartley and Brown lock for sure, and yep great day but damn HOT!! Hey that's what it's like here.
All Essendon Rookies are automatically elevated
. They get 5 elevations and 10 top ups to cover 12 players banned
He floated around early then after Lonergan went down he sat back a bit. Was a good game to blow the cobwebs out that's for sure.
This article contends they only get 2 further rookie elevations...?All Essendon Rookies are automatically elevated
