Noah Anderson
Bailey Smith
Tom Green
Tom Mitchell
Luke Davies-Uniake

Green & LDU for me atm

Will respectively assume boss of their midfield!

 

[King_Steele]

Daicos v Young

 

[Maybe Tomorrow]

Daicos v Young

Both for me, but Daicos if just one.

 

[A Bit Dusty]

Daicos v Young

Daicos has a higher ceiling and a better role

 

[King_Steele]

Bowes v Salem v Yeo

 

[Maybe Tomorrow]

Bowes v Salem v Yeo

Salem

 

[rocker_oz33]

I've swapped both of them around a few times. I wouldn't mind both in my team at D2-D3

Unsure where Bray plays hunter and Landon prob play wing s .

Viney.
Piggy.
Track...starting mids .

All PS watch

That's only 3 mids All teams play at least 6 and with Salem back it pushed Brayshaw more into the midfield and he scored 100+ in 9 times in the last 12 games.

I looked at the Melbourne board the other day and they seemed genuinely angry at the idea of Gus playing midfield. Not that means anything of course but it was a bit weird.

LDU to me is the clear number 1. The rest I find very hard to split

Yeah he's a classic breakout player. Just concerned about Clarko wanting to prove he's the master coach and changing his role.

Its going to be tough to break into the top 8 mids but things change every season.

Noah - think he has the class to go SP and has been tracking slightly better than the other breakout contenders. Has a shit bye. a watch for me

Baz - no - he's a butcher

Green - no Hopper or TT helps ; Rds 1 & 3 were outliers to all his other scores. I'd like to see better consistency at higher levels first. New coach might help and has the game to go SP but another watch for me.

LDU - I'm not as bullish on LDU as others and have him behind Noah and Green and a similar rating to Warner

Titch - only proven SP in the group. If he gets back to 115+ then he's very cheap. This pick is going to be based personal gut feel. I'll watch his PS but he's in my side at the moment.

Yeah I agree with this.

Safe play is Titch and LDU I guess. Ando after his bye if he does go SP.

 

[JDWCE]

For me the magic question is whether Cunnington helps him or takes points from him. LDU looked a class above most of the comp at certain points last year so I expect that to continue under Clarko

I can see Green going SP purely because he has all the right tools to be kotd but there’s a lot more unknowns there

Yeah I reckon Tom Green is one of the big decisions this year. Could really really break out with Taranto/Hopper gone and a new coach or be just another run of the mill scoring mid, of which there are plenty.

Get this one right and it may go along way to socks me thinks. I’m a pass at the minute but watching pre season closely.

I cant see him out scoring Jelly myself, not even close tbh, but….he will most certainly play more games you’d think. If I thought Jelly would play every week he would be in my team. Such a tease though.

What's not to like about Jelly?
Hardly missed a game the last 2 seasons. A little unlucky prior to that.
Has burned more than a few SC coaches in his time but has the tide turned?

I must be scarred! I reckon he goes big this year, will definitely look at him for an upgrade.
