Position 2025 Forwards

[Jiska]

You've sold me just about haha. You prefer him to H.Garcia?? From a POD perspective it could be a great move if Wicks works out. It's just H.Garcia is looking a mid rotations and could average a bit more, so there's an element of being left behind if Wicks has an "off game" where he might score a 40-50 whilst I think H.Garcia might consistently look at 70-80 on the regular. But you're right, it didn't look like he was exclusively glued to Watson last week, so hopefully those 40-50 scores might not be too often?

I have both Garcia and Wicks - F4 and F5. If it wasn’t him it would be a rookie because I have no cash to upgrade to anyone decent, so it’s effectively Wicks vs a rookie and I’m confident he’ll score better than a rookie. There’s probably a reason no-one owns him and I’ll end up getting it wrong, but as I said easy to downgrade. I’m hopeful that eventually, one year, one of my risks will work out LOL.

The reasoning is sound! Sometimes SC is a cruel mistress where risks and working out rarely go together as we all know, haha. I'm looking at my options to bring in Wicks just now, but I might have to hold firm and see how my team on the whole pans out this weekend.

was really disappointed with sam darcys 76. spent way too much time in the ruck, and not enough up forward.



would hate to trade him out, as he is such a weapon. hoping this is his floor score, and we see a spike next week.

will need to work out how to bring in rankine if he goes big again.

In the same position. Giving hm another week.

 

[HTPunter]

Eewwwwww

107 first up 23 dis 10 tackles

Don’t have to help win games to score well

 

[ArdentEagle]

I'm very close to effectively bringing in Smith and Rachele for JHF. Hmmm

Very impressed with Rachele I was.

Isn’t decent ruck time a bonus for a key forward?

Please do it.

Please do it.

Gotta risk it for the biscuit....You think it's a silly move?

Rochelle looked great.
I'd wait a week though

See above.

I mean....That would be the smart thing to do BUT I have SERIOUS FOMO and need instant gratification

JUst a gut feeling with this that he's a 95+ this year.

Really looked like he'd leveled up

Thilthorpe - Opinions?

Think you had to start him with the Crows good first month and a half. Won't score as well when thinks get harder.

Although he's a freak, absolute unit. Little bit of ruck time will lift his floor.

 

[SSwans2011]

Caiden Cleary could become an option for a dud rookie in the next month.

He was huge in the VFL today and was ahead of Sheldrick and Corey Warner in PS before the club found out about the coke.

I reckon he comes straight in after our bye unless it's a great all-round team performance tomorrow. Will play primarily as a forward but will get stints in the midfield.

IMO the first two Crows games may provide false indicators

Crows have North next week.

Maric impressed me against the lions. Didn’t watch much of the second half but he’s a beautiful kick of the ball

He was pretty impressive in the first half but struggled a bit once the Lions showed up after half time. He had 5 turnovers in the last quarter alone (out of 7 touches).

He won't make too much this week, so at least we can have another look at him.

I'd like to see cleaner hands from Maric .....his decision-making, ball in hand, is not yet instinctive
