Yeah Richo is an interesting one. I was going to steer clear of him due to his age and his potential for injuries... but he was dominant tonight and we saw last year he can pull in some big scores.
At a pretty good price too, but I'll probably leave him out for the time being.

I usually steer clear of anyone on the wrong side of thirty. Injuries and declining performance seem to kick in around then. For Richo, I make an exception. The guy is a freak.
His game last night was awesome, 157. I'm still on the fence with Richo though, the possibility of an absolute disaster of a match is always in the back of my mind.
Richo is worth the gamble, can score big.... not as much pressure on him this year either....
Matthew Kreuzer ? any thoughts on this year?????
he said he wasnt allowed to play the intra club much because he was training to hard. maybe its a sign.
but he was fairly consistant in 07, 08 he was up and down. its a toss up which way you think he will go.
maguire?
Not sure of his price but i would have thought he would be pretty cheep.
He should make you some cash, but if your thinking of having him in your side for a few weeks id look else where.
Aside from the obvious injury risk, last year when he came back he was very rusty and took some time for him to get with the pace of the game i expect that to be the same this year.
His disposal isn't great either.
I think their would be better value else where.

injury prone and plays a lock down role meaning he's never going to score that big anyways.
I reckon Hurley or S.Hill have way more updise as cash cows around the same price. Bit more of a risk of these two not playing but a risk I'm willing to take.

Id stay away from Maguire too
What are peoples thoughts about Courtney Dempsey from essendon ? Cheap-ish, can score a 100 and should go up in value ?

I like him a lot, my memory of him before breaking down was also pretty good, and Friday night reiterated those thoughts. If he can stay injury free could be a great pick up. One of the ones I'm watching the closest, if his form continues through NAB cup he will definitely be in my team
As Monty says, more twang than a Lee whatshisface album.
That said- if he can get through 8 games, he'll be an excellent pick up.
More so in DT though I reckon, he's an extra 100k in SC.

Vezpremi looking a lot more likely to play 15+ games with Fosdike, Kennelly retiring and now Barry out on LTI.
Anyone else agree?
Anyone else agree?
yup, he is in a battle with lucas to fit in to my forward line
I need to downgrade one of the following players in my backline:
Lockyer, Malceski or Adcock?

hey everybody, what does everyone think of travis cloke for this season?
Travis will rpobably stay at that mid-price area (under 500K). He just doesn't seem to be able to get over the 100 mark if he can't get 10 marks or 4 goals. Will stay away from him. Alright now what does everyone think of Callan Ward. He missed a lot of last year because of Year 12 but this year he is fully focused. He is dirt cheap and could find himself in the Bulldogs 22. Thoughts?
I wouldnt be too keen on him regardless, could be worth the risk though.
What are peoples thoughts on andrew embley down back is anyone as keen as i am?
think that he needs a good side to be at his best..i know that he scored reasonably well last year but the eagles took like being ordinary this year and at his price id be looking att other.

Ryder is an interesting 1 averaged 63 last year and was mainly given stopping roles in defence. If knights decides to free him up and let him run around a bit he might be a good option but personally im staying away.
