Discussion 2025 Midprice Madness

[Foxman98]

Haven’t seen any love for Jacob Hopper. $435K for a big money mid who can accumulate, Tiges will be heavily reliant on he and Timmy this year. I assume his preseason is going well, haven’t seen anything to say otherwise.

Always injured

Probably because he’s expensive but not close to a top mid

Looks like the medication has kicked in.

Has anyone done the maths on the way the SC magic number has dropped quite a bit and how it may effect both scores and price increases?

Say the Magic number is down 4-8% (not sure as haven’t really looked into it yet) but say the average SC score is 65points at $375k.
Just an example.

Is it going to be 8% harder to get a 65pt player to score 80-90 to get the $150k price increase and that percentage or odds goes up considerably if you expect them to go 100 or 100+.

The Gambler in me thinks I will be taking the field in the last leg of my Quaddie.

gutsroy the number expert !

Yeah, Cats fans all seem to be pretty reluctant on him, that probably tells its.own story.
Do rate Guthrie, though.
Martin a perennial risk now, but Feeling and Brisbane both seem to be OK at managing that sort of thing than some other clubs.

I rate Ted Clohesy but I'm not sure he gets too many games. We aren't known for providing too many matches to the younger blokes.

The Cats are the experts of hiding away or getting great first year AFL players from the Western District leagues, who are 22-24 years old.
Or turning older AFL listed dud players into good players, maybe not always SuperCoach relevant like for example Gary Rowan.

Some other teams have followed this model out of the VFL or SAFL.

i always check the age profile of most rookie players.

Each year it seems at least 2 slot straight into senior teams, maybe not the first round, but cement their spots by rounds 6-7.
