This turns me on
that's what we all say around this time...Definitely going to be a premo/ rookie strategy next year
i'd say Dow at CarltonThoughts on best long term option for a keeper league? Probably gave to break them into categories:
DEF - Stoddard, Coffield?
MID - Cerra, Dow
FWD - Higgins, Allen
X-Factor - Bonar, D.Fogarty
??
Noting that junior form doesn't directly translate to senior scoring....i'd say Dow at Carlton
Don't disagree .....i just looked at which clubs are likely to play Rookies for a lot of games, based on previous knowledge we have, & likely table positionsNoting that junior form doesn't directly translate to senior scoring....
Stoddard - 63 @ TAC 2017
Coffield - 50 @ TAC 2016, 80 @ TAC 2017, 80 @ U18CH 2017
Cerra - 96 @ TAC 2017, 81@ U18CH 2017
Dow - 84 @ TAC 2016, 96 @ TAC 2017, 69.5 @ U18CH 2017
Higgins - 106 @ TAC 2016, 109 @ TAC 2017, 119 @ U18CH 2017
Allen - 73 @ WAFLU18 2016, 101 @ WAFLU18 2017, 88 @ WAFLRES 2017, 83 @ U18CH 2017
Allen seems like he could be a special player in the near future for West Coast, given their forward stock is a 30 year old Kennedy and an inconsistent Darling. He's got a massive work rate that they were talking at draft about him being a potential midfielder at times. Can see him running like Gunston or Lynch (ADE), in the near future.
Richmond better play Higgins.Don't disagree .....i just looked at which clubs are likely to play Rookies for a lot of games, based on previous knowledge we have, & likely table positions
I can see Carlton play Dow a lot .....will Freo & Lyon play Cerra?
Will Richmond where they're positioned be blooding Higgins, for many games?
I think by season end Higgins will be in the best 22 along with Bolton. Based on their skill they are better goal scoring options than Butler and Castagna, but I suspect selection won't be about talent but about the team and specific roles.Don't disagree .....i just looked at which clubs are likely to play Rookies for a lot of games, based on previous knowledge we have, & likely table positions

I agree ....the club probably does too, only offering Castagna a 1 year contractI think by season end Higgins will be in the best 22 along with Bolton.

Bolton is "special" ......Higgins as you say will be an improvement, and has the capability of spending minutes in the midfield, which i doubt on Butler/Castagna
You sure ? .....it was reported as a 1 year in the media?Castagna got 2 years.
Like him. What you think of Constables chances at getting games?Lock Tim Kelly in for MID bench lads, possibly even starting M7 or M8 depending on how he goes in JLT Challenge!
You sure ? .....it was reported as a 1 year in the media?
NONE !Like him. What you think of Constables chances at getting games?
But rookiesNONE !
Venables likely to get games this year ?But rookies
Definitely. Hopefully early but if not around the byes as a downgrade option.Venables likely to get games this year ?
