Fair enough mate.
Only second year player to get close is Fyfe with 108, Oliver won't come close IMO.

Based on what?
Oliver has demonstrated elite SC scoring ability. His main obstacle is minutes.

I didn't compare him to Fyfe.
His scoring ability isn't the question. It's the minutes he plays. Good preseason with better fitness and looks to go 100+.
He's a second year player for crying out loud, 2nd year blues could still hit him.
Just because he dominated JLT when no one is really trying doesn't mean jack IMO. Rookies are the only ones you should take into consideration.

Second year blues is totally overstated.
It's an opinion thing, it didn't look like the other players were just letting him get it. He was genuinely finding the ball while others couldn't stop him.
I can see why a lot of good Sc teams will pick Oliver. He is built for this format.

I do.
I have Nank to swing into the rucks for coverage.
As much as I like Goldstein and Gawn, I don't hold as much confidence in them this year.

To be fair, i feel like this could be the year to take risks. Lots of midpricers, rooks are useless so far and none inspire confidence.Ahhh. It says a lot then.
Risk risk risk. Go for it
Yeah rookies are shithouse.
Depends on team selection. Butler types will be everywhere, how many games they play is the question

well I eliminate the risk of Sandi by having Nank as backup and I have loaded my forwards to accomodate Nank moving to the rucks.
I don't currently have Oliver, but I can understand if people decided to go him. Just the same as a Jack Steele.
They ain't proven at the end of the day - Oliver/Nank/Steele
Just safe picks for me, but I guess you gotta be risky somewhere.
Beams/Roughy are my only "risky" picks. Rest are proven premos.
I think MILLS and PETRACCA are going to be great breakout pods.

Here is my team, I know I have J. Witts but I believe he can score higher and more consistently then an under 200k forward. Even if he turns to shit, I have Nankervis there and witts will become a forward rookie. Thoughts???

I like your forward line a lot but I'm not too keen on Turner. Do you have the cash available to get WHE or Taranto? I just think Turner will be a slow burn while the other 2 should get a decent amount of midfield time and score 10-15 PPG more in my opinion.
The rest of your team is good too!
Well you are a North supporter, so I suppose I will take your word, I was banking on him scoring 70+ which i thought he may be capabale of and not many teams have him, but i'll change it to WHE
I couldn't afford WHE so i downgraded Greene to Higgins and upgraded Turner to WHE, leaving 50k left over. Thoughts?

He is not a bad pick by any means. His JS looks solid, I just don't think he will perform as well as those 2 rookies that will spend more time in their teams' midfields. With Wells, Greenwood and De Goey (not that he played too much midfield) out I think WHE will see some midfield minutes - although a Collingwood supporter may know more. Taranto played well in JLT and i think he has a higher ceiling than Turner too
