Can you delete the Darcy Cameron part, he is my pod :P

Must admit I'm starting to eye of Worrel... think i'm going abit nuts on the crows players this year though

Cerra or T Powel for me, that is the question

Any chance of a small deep dive on atom Powell 🤔

Is Jagga being 5th man safer than a Tsatis do you think ?

I've got massive concerns on TDK because of the duel ruck and the draw. Voss is going to roll out two rucks against the big rucks to protect him. He has Nank the tank round 1 for instance I follow the draft, Jagga Smith is a complete lock barring injuries. He has played a couple of VFL games for the tigers last year and still got the job done. 27 touches per game over 2 games in the VFL against men. I'm having a sneaky look at Adam Saad, not sure he'll get the point bump with Newman out or hollands, wait and see

Well done on the thorough review mate. I've got Keays at F1 ATM, 3rd best avg. for a fwd, post bye is hard to ignore!

I think coleman is only an option if zorko gets a long term injury. Doedee has more redflags than a chinese military parade.

If Wil Ashcroft was in a lesser team? 💥📈📈🤩 But he's not & his rise in Brisbane's mid hierarchy won't happen quickly barring injury. See also Freo, Port closed shops

LDU is the only one the really stands out to me. North should win a few more games so that should track. pity about his bye

I have a very similar side atm. I'm anti-PODing JHF coz I expect low scores will keep his price manageable & I have at least 6 R12 bye players I prefer. You mention Darcy & Thilthorpe elsewhere. I want to start both, huge inherent upside & both may get more ruck work if English is building match fitness & Crom have no-one else to help/ cover/ replace ROB short term. Cash lets me get Sanders over Maric but that could be a R3 correction?

Odd to see so many premos decline post bye? I always thought that the best players inflate their prices later in the season when theres a bit more space? Maybe that's because of cherry picking pundits who cite last 4, 6, 8 games @ 180? Though I do think it applies to rucks barring injury. I do wonder if Caldwell will go next level as #2 Mid? Zerrett is #1 Mid, not playing HB, probably looking after him & preparing to drop behind the ball & distribute? No Parish with Setterfield & Hobbs on the outer? (And no pointless Stringer CBAs?)

Keep bringing the heat 🔥

Serong and Brayshaw is really interesting to see how they swapped the points differential

You are a champion

wow great stuff, that's quite the review Leon Cameron was the Giants old coach... better assistant coach than head coach. Did run into a rampaging pissed off richmond on their home deck in 2019 though in the granny. only thing I can think of with keays now is he was involved in key scoring plays to win games... but it doesn't look like there were that many close games for the crows.

Thilthrope is currently in my team. I had enough cash left for a premo fwd or def and a 400 k player.... so premo def and him made more sense.

Wiz deserves 50 million subscribers

Gawn is ahead of Dean Cox by a Beard... I mean whisker. :P I've been watching the non team reveal once 2-3 times lol. Stats nerd. I'm running with xerri/gawn and another ruck at the flex. then alot of mid price madness else where. YOLO

Loving these vids mate

You mentioned that you haven't looked at byes as yet. I guess you might, but do you take notice on fixtures and matchups? (Mainly the early fixture, as we are all trying to put our starting sides together) 🙂

Parker will get Warlaw's CBA's. More analysis, less team reveals personally. Most teams are cookie cutter atm, will probably be even more pronounced once the preseason and Opening Round games have happened. Outside of Filthy, Richards and Clark, maybe Gawn (but more will do it closer to lockout) you have the same as most too. With so many cheap must haves there not many spots up for grabs. I have Gwan/Xerri too atm so long as his larynx is ok and he is fit. I have gone with the philosophy that a cheapy like Mills/Macrae will probably be a keeper and the primos I have are who I also think will be a keeper, so no McKertchers, Cerras, Peatlings, Flynns etc. Guns and Rookies (or rookie priced, I like the Maric pick for instance.) and cheap keepers only. I figure I will be saving trades with upgrading and with the flex no loss of points or minimal at the start. Less risk I am hoping.

I think Fonti is ahead of Stone at the moment*

Normally only watch 3 mins on average for team reveals but watch the whole of your other vids

Ed Richards keeps appearing on alot of these lists in a good way... just need bevo to calm the farm

I can officially say baring injuries and or one of my rooks not getting a game, that my team is finally locked and loaded for rd1🤞

My favorite video of yours to date!

Simkpin a lock for me Wiz

Brayshaw seems pretty bomb proof. Freo should win a few more games and i doubt they tag him over serong. Melbourne bounce back in interesting... they might be the most likely to move into the top eight or the bottom 4 than any mid range team. My back gets sore just watching Max Gawn carry that team.

Personally think the guys with the lowest differential are the ones to target, you know win or lose what they will get. Don't think Soligo is getting enough love. 10 point increase year on year and set to be permanent mid with Laird going back. Peatling will rotate with all of Rachele, Neal'Bullen and Rankine, Soligo will rotate off the bench. He is bigger, has a bigger contest to contest tank and has a better midfield around him. Crom have a healthy list and will surprise this year, am excited for them for sure. Soligo will breakout, that's my prediction.

Thanks for the hard work in putting together the data. I think a rolling three year average of PPD might have been useful to include as a baseline, to account for any down years due to injury, etc. I note you’ve included 23 data for those that missed a season, but some players may have had an outlier year also. But I understand the work to do that increases quite a lot.

Hear me out lol, J Darling to wind the click back (his only 32). Check out his 2020 stats when WC were half decent and he was playing a proper CHF role! I’m starting him as I reckon he will go nuts as I can’t see any opposition defenders within first month of footy being able to go with him 🔮

Yeah it should be H Clarke because my mate who knows saints inside and out, said like a month ago that H Clarke and Liam Henry so with Poo H Clarke might almost start in the guts

as a crow's man is Zac Taylor Best 22 this year? he was a stats pig as a junior.

The reason people pick short is in the preseason games he clocks up HUGE scores cause it's a glorified match sim and then people actually put pressure on during the season and it doesn't work.

I think this is the year Short lifts his averages in terms ave disposals and impact on the game me thinks, reason being the kids down there will look for him as often as possible to be able to try and keep possession of the ball and not just bomb it down the line all the time, and with no Rioli, Short should get into better score involvement situations and get bulk kicks and will be down there plenty so I think it’s worth the risk and could go down to M Robert’s if he doesn’t do what I think he will do 🤞

This is good confirmation! Thank you my man

Great vid, as others have said, different, totally relevent and thought provoking. Saying that I expect a few of these to change this season due to changes in the line ups. Go the Crom.

Red an article on Dawson, "predominantly" through the middle he reckons. Also Laird going half back apparently.

I commented on your other video about Ben Keays and you seem to answer here at the end of the video. Maybe he got lots of score involvements, they guy that sets up the goal, I THINK you get points for that but I could be wrong. But yeah... the only big stats difference is an extra goal and half a behind a game. Which is less than 10 supercoach points difference.

I was looking at Keays post bye stats. He was averaging 2 goals a game and a lot of tackles. The tackles are sustainable but 2 goals a game is alot to average across the season. Food for thought though, he has the round 15 bye. If he plays a good first half of the season you can flick him

I have NAS currently and the Marvel venue situation doesn’t concern me really! He goes to Adelaide oval which should suit his game beautifully, then marvel vs Cats which don’t really have taggers, then Adelaide oval again, then Norwood which every team will be playing a neutral venue, then Home vs dogs who a green for desi kickers I’m fairly sure, g he as done MCG and Optus games in there so all g if you ask me

Wardlaw or Cerra, any stats you know of that separates the two ?

Young looking good

who do you like out of Keays and Thilthorpe?

100% there is A LOT of group think and people seem to get really annoyed if they see a team with a pod in it.

I forgot to ask what do you think of Dawson? I keep flicking him and out of my team. His kicking was off last season but I think the crows midfield has a lot of mouths to feed now. On SEN they suggestion Neil-Bullion might play on the big body mids this season to free dawson up more.

very thought provoking especially in combo with your "Which Mids Are Most Reliant on CBAs?" I'm dubious on bailey smith too, or any geelong mid really. Their mids don't score well if you look over their last 3 years. Scott likes to rotate his mids off the bench and in other positions. I want to see what other position Smith plays when he isn't' playing mid. If it's forward that's going to be an issue.

Great stuff. I think the multi table idea is the way to go. I look at players through a few different lenses and if a player appears on multiple lists they're a tick The Cox vrs Gawn question is a great question for the ages.

Xerri probably was better post bye as he played WCE straight after his bye, then his last 6 games of the season were Carlton, Geelong, Richmond , WCE, Dogs and Hawks....so you could probably not ask for a better run for opponent ruck matchups than that
