Yep if only we could fit them all in, trying to pick the guys who I don’t think will drop in priceReally want to fit Lloyd in. And Touk. And Clarry. And Stewart.
Especially Touk
Touk shouldn't drop much and he's so friggin good to watch. Just run and runs and runs. I'm really torn between him and Parish in my team. Love watching them both and they are both very good at SC. Took was so reliable last season and Parish dominated so much in multiple games once he got the chance. Higher ceiling but not as consistent. Arrgghhh!!

Did some research on Touk tonight. He had 16 tons in a row to end last season. Wowee.

gibcus i think will be lucky to score 50. at that price you wouldnt pay more than 124k for him. that 50k makes a huge difference elsewhere. drop sdk down back and bring in a fwd rookie

Decided to stop trying to fit square pegs into round holes. Faffing around with swapping doubtful premos in and out and then watching super premos fly away is just too much of a leap. The rookie sitch is dross, the 200-300K for once offers exceptional scoring and growth material and the bench players will be in and out of teams or starting as subs. We'll unearth a few gems after a couple of rounds and I'll trade them in if I haven't already fluked them.
This is starting to take the shape of a fieldable side, I believe.

That 73 from Weller makes it really hard to resist such a SP Gull.

I've only got two
toxic
Hall of Famer
Witts and English and it can be so
I don't see what others do here.
Since switching to defence 4 seasons ago, Sicily lowest average is 94. Hewett's highest season average in his 8 year career is 88, with a next best of 78. Sicily is priced low due to his ACL. Hewett is priced low because he averaged 73 last season. I get he has switched clubs and roles, but he's played mid before and I worry it will be another Zac Williams or countless others before him. At least Sicily has done it before and done so consistently. Hewett seems much more of a maybe.
If Hartigan is named round 1, Sicily is locked in for me, brain fades and all.
He has superb hands, pace and a great kick. I'd rate him above some of the ziegulls that were defensive premos last year.
He just doesn't demand the ball enough, twice I saw him give it off and run hard to get it back but whether he didn't call loud enough or his teammates didn't see him etc - the likes of Hall and Lloyd would have. Weller just doesn't stat demand enough as an uncontested player.
So is the consensus that Xerri can only really ruck and isn't very good up forward, so will only got there to rest?
Catch 22 hey? If he scores 120, everyone jumps on your POD, if he scores 80, you doubt yourself.

It does seem Xerri is very close to starting as North’s number 1 ruck. They seem to be preparing for life after Goldy. Goldy is a better forward than Xerri and CCJ isn’t great in the ruck.

I’d prefer Sic but I’m tying to squeeze every dollar out of my team and I just can’t make 3 prem defenders and Sic work.
With 35 trades I’m viewing Hewett as a luxury stepping stone. I know he’s too expensive as a stepping stone but I’m hoping for a strong start and to jump off him quick. Happy to “waste” one trade on him if he gets solid points early.

I always fear the worst when they come back from a ruptured ACL, he is one awkward landing from footy limbo again. I am not picking either player, but Sic every day of the week ahead of Hewett, for all that you stated above.
Every player is one awkward landing away from a ruptured ACL.

Some fascinating stats on the points per minute in the preseason games. Wish they would only include players with more than 50% game time because it really skews the stats otherwise.
Highest forward for PPM was Callum Brown.

That was my cunning all plan along; insinuate myself into the discussion and then pinch the best set-up I could find. Bugger, there I was patting myself on the back for my subtle subterfuge, too...
