Degoey has a brilliant season ....he then has more suitor clubs to play-off against COLL

Not so sure, he's a good player but might not be worth the hassle. Collingwood are mad if they give him big money.

I remember when no club was willing to take Dusty in his first big Contract year .....afraid of a chop-sticks tirade

Big mistake by all clubs .....if they had their time again

Maybe North will get their big signing this time

They did an 8 game player from the Tigers for $500k a year

 

[AFDogs]

Can see Treloar next year being last years Sidebum.

 

[kool kangas]

Barring unforseen circumstances,eg injuries, Covid ect this will be my starting line up until l change it again..

 

[SSwans2011]

Taranto and Treloar are interesting picks. What's the thinking there? I don't really see either having much upside.

Love perma-captain SP Gould

Felt they were the safest picks (pending Terloar's fitness) out of forwards that I could envision being there at the end of the season.

I think Thomas, Butters, and De Goey all have more upside, but the latter 2 have their own question marks. Thomas' last handful of matches last year make him appealing, but Treloar and Taranto have more runs on the board and thus inspire more confidence that they will be around the mark of the top few forwards.

Don't be surprised if Tarryn Thomas is in the top 6 forwards at the end of the year. His trajectory to this point has been outstanding. With more midfield time, the ability to impact fwd of centre whilst increasing his playing time (76.1% TOG in 2021) can only improve. Almost a bankable for me.

He's an absolute jet. I'm just weary that he'll spend more time forward because of his ability to hit the scoreboard. Particularly given the addition of Greenwood to the Kangas midfield.

Cunnington could be out for a while though, and Jed Anderson's still up in the air.

The gradual increase and then breakout (+30) form his previous year. 4 hundreds and another 5 90+ scores from his 21 games suggests he could be bankable. Its easy to make excuses and reasons to break something that aint broken but he played exceptionally well in 2021. Expecting similar, if not better output in 2022.

 

[SSwans2011]

Cunnington could be out for a while though, and Jed Anderson's still up in the air.

Good point regarding Cunnington, but I'm not sure Anderson is in their best 22 regardless. They've got Greenwood, Simpkin, and LDU as their likely starting midfield, and then Powell and Phillips to rotate through there. I think Thomas is in their top few midfielders, but he's also a significantly better forward than those players.

Thomas seems like he's a Petracca/Martin/Heeney type, which is huge praise, but also why I'm a bit weary of his midfield minutes this early in his career.

I wouldn't recommend starting Toby Greene mate

 

[Yoda_]

Very nice! You know your stuff

cheers mate


few queries I'm not 100% on and most likely will change come round 1;

• The rookies are subject to change
• Each line needs a mid pricer, this is all subject to change. Caldwell is the big ?. Could feasibly move Coniglio to the midfield and take on one of the more attractive low / medium priced mid pricers (Perkins [Ess], Cockatoo [Bris], Phillips [NM]).
• Big emphasis on the guys who dominated in poor sides (Took Miller, Jack Steele, Ridley). Should back it up again.
• Rucks is as set and forget as you can. Nic Nat is still one of the best and Witts at that price is a bargain. Witts is almost 2:1 hundreds at the Gold Coast Suns. Pretty damn good imho.
• MidPricers WILL be the difference this year. FAR too much value to be had.

I was tempted by Brodie Kemp but that tweeter seems to be historically very hit or miss and with the ACL and lack of playing time in 2021, I decided to skip but firmly on my watch list.

 

[MacStradbroke]

Agree and the Roos have a few mids who don’t really play anywhere else. also agree Thomas is a jet.

Also wanna note that Jed Anderson might not be playing due to not being vax.. so Greenwood theoretically could be taking his spot.

With the new rules and the extra trades I feel this could be the way to go this season

I'm actually liking the balance of my team

It's actually a bit more conservative than I've gone in recent years
