If he does it again in Rd 0 then definitely. Worth at least exploring what the team could look like without him in the meantime

Anyone want to try and guess the Top 6 forwards.
My guess
S.Flanders (98)
J.Macrae (96)
D.Martin (92)
C.Daniel (89)
T.Adams (87)
L.Jackson (86)
Thereabouts: T.Greene, D.Moore, I.Heeney, I.Rankine
If the top players are only averaging in the 90s they won't be difficult upgrades (800k) so you can probably load up on the value picks. If some of the value picks are also going within 10 points of the Top 6 you can also leave them as the last upgrades (so you can complete your midfield and backline first).

Nope but if he fails in opening round then we have a problem

I think of the existing forward your numbers are probably about right unless Darcy goes down which would bump Jackson up significantly. What we don’t know is who will get DPP later in the season. Could be a player that shoots to the top of those averages if they’re somebody relevant.

Who would be on the radar that would be relevant though
No Chance
Taranto, Gulden, Laird
Slim Chance
Petracca, Bont, Rozee, Butters, Treloar
Possibly a chance
DeGoey, Coniglio
Looks like Mannagh may be coming on late for this game and not starting 22 Puts a line through him as well
I don't know... Reid feels like an impact player
I'll probably try and get him on the bench if i can
But 300k feels like a lot for a on field rookie who might not score well
They've said he will likely get that unaccountable half back role tho
If he doesn't get that for much of the season then he probably doesn't score as well

I want a round 0 score out of him if I'm going to start him. Adds a layer of protection in his price if he goes down with an injury early in a game.
Risky but could be huge
Mead an option with SPP's suspension?
26 disposals for 56 points for Fyfe. Great to see him back and fit but he’s not a fantasy player even at that price IMO.
That other game yes (or at least a maybe). Fantasy not touching

58 points with 4 frees against (-12 so would be 70).
Priced at 54 so if he gets around 70 odd for every game he will still be big value.
Personally at 500k, I would want to see potential to go at 80-85 which I don’t see from Fyfe.
Yes he’ll outsocre his price but I think if he’s pushing out scores 60-70, while being a sub or injury risk, for that extra 200k I’d rather play Reid or someone that will likely push out a 55-60.
Might lose 10 points but save 200k that’s worth a lot more else where.
Love watching him being back though. Just seems a lot more handball happy and less involvement in linkup play to get those extra points outside of stoppages.

Keen to watch Harvey Gallagher tomorrow - named on the wing, knows how to get the ball and just $200K, second year on Doggies list
Aren't Port the hard team to score against?
I thought we got what we needed to see out of Fyfe, plenty of touches and a full game
Hopefully doesn't give away 4 frees against in every game and hopefully Freo don't get outclassed by most teams, will lead to higher scores.

I was all aboard the Fyfe train but I guess his body -injury/sub risk has scared me away. I think there is a few options around the same price that doesn’t have those risks. But damn I wanted to have him so bad! I’m such a fan. Won’t be mad if I went without him and see him go 80+
However I’m seeing more so a 70 average as said above with the potential of being subbed

Yeah, I'm the same. I just want to see the good players showing their wares. It's great to see what some of these players can do under the heat of battle. 2017/18 Yeo is the one I miss the most.

15points upside not enough at that price, especially when you factor in risk of sub (both killing ave and cash gen) and injury

I agree, it's still a praccy and he didn't do anything to disappoint. If anything, I thought his touches were great, most all one touch pick ups, very clean and damaging at times. If he stays fit, good signs. When the oppo focus goes heavy on Young and co, he'll ton up occasionally.
