Position 2024 Fantasy Forwards

[Zevon]

Still don’t reckon he plays Johnson/Harrison etc will play ahead of him IMO

Yeah anything is possible - I think any player in this sort of price range still has work to do between now and round 1 (or opening round in this case). Even if Finn was in the box seat, there’s still a lot that can change in a couple of months.

Good old Longmire, spud of a coach

I suspect it's a case of needing extra mids through match sim. Still think he's predominantly forward. I just can't see his body allowing him to play mid.

He's certainly not going to get minutes over AB, Serong and Young. Perhaps detracts from some of Johnson's minutes but not significantly. And, as for Ras, well I just hope he can find his way into the 22.

I would like to retract my earlier comments.

Just saw Fyfe's hanger in match sim today. Lock him in for a third brownlow and 110 average.

I’ll need to see it in pre season, but won’t rule Fyfe out. F4 definitely going to be one of Jordon, Tsatas or Fyfe

Billings?

Billings?

Don’t think I’ll be able to afford quite that much for F4. But if he looks good, could even be a candidate for F3 over a Fisher type

To much risk with Fyfe, if hes good early on you can trade into him. Even then ive already got 4 Freo players on field xD

Kind of see it the opposite. If he has value, it's early, not after he has put on $50 to $100k

Nah way to risky imo, if he shows a good score/role in round 0 then yeah you can start i guess.
I've already got enough freo/port players on that bye anyway .

He doesn't play Round Zero does he? - It's what you see in the Community series I reckon. It's still about 2 months away though, you'll get a bit of an insight I reckon, or he'll blow up, one or the other.

Oh true he doesn't even more risk . Yeah the injury history lately is also a worry. but if he pays of then it would be massive.

Agree, it's also about using trades effectively. If you start him (I won't) then when he goes down (not if) then there's only 1 trade used to get rid of him. If you use a trade to bring him in then it's inevitable that you have to trade him out, so 2 trades.

Depends what price he is when he goes down, but you are almost certainly going to need extra coin via a second downgrade trade to get him to someone decent.

It's often true for most cash cows though, otherwise they are keepers, or they are not. Exceptions are Daicos (looking in wonder at you Zevon) and Sheez types, and they are perhaps one a season if we are lucky.

thoughts?

Sydney didn’t get him to stick him at HF, or play anything less than 60% CBA’s. If that is the case then on role alone he should be an easy pick.

Coaches panel podcast today eaised some good queries

I think on one Hand most of us agree with what you’ve said but at the same time look at the options they have to roll through there and there is every chance he is a <50% cba.

I think he’s one you just pencil in for now but like all these round 0 mid pricers really decide after that game

 

[Cotchy9]

Not a fan of Adam’s at all tbh. Been in decline for the past 2 seasons, body is always a worry and gone to a club who already have a heap of good mids. Would rather take a punt on a Connor MacDonald type

Yeah, still think he is competing with Warner, Parker and Rowbottom. The same argument of why they got him could be said for Jordan too, cos he'll roll through there at times, as will Gulden, Mills later, and a few others. Adams will too, but not sure he is a mainstay yet....

What’s the R0 line?

anything under 80 I def pass

85 feels like I may still pass

90 plus I pick him I think but could see why some still wouldn’t

also depends on what other players do that rd, esp those midpricers

 

[Tex Danger]

Is Fyfe a legit option? What does he realistically have in him To ave?

priced at 54 would need to go 75-80 to be good pick (ideally would want to see 80 as realistic).

What was Mundy scoring over his last couple of seasons?

 

[Zevon]

Firm no from me on Adams for now. His body has never been reliable for long enough, and even with Mills out we have a fair few players to roll through that midfield. Won’t surprise me at all if Parker and Adams share the role and split their time between the midfield and the forward line. Not sure Adams scores enough if that’s the case, and coupled with the injury risk I just wouldn’t want to take the punt.

Naturally I reserve the right to do the mother of all backflips if he pulls out a thumping score with CBAs galore in the opening round

Working backwards 77, 89, 66,80,09

I assume you’d be cold on jordon too Then? Hard to see how he reliably fits in too

50%+ CBAs is my line, as long as his role is fine he will score and make money, even if he has a bad game round 0

 

[Zevon]

Not in my plans at the moment but not completely cold either. I kind of assumed we were getting him as depth but it looks like he’s a bit higher in the pecking order than that, especially while Mills is out (he could conceivably play a very similar inside/outside role to what Mills usually does).

At $454k he’s cheap enough to find a spot for but he’s another who would need to have a good round 0… and if he does pretty much everyone will jump on anyway.
