News just in Newman out for the season with a patella injury. this could mean Doc starts in defence. I also think Laird will almost certainly be a top 6-8 defender. I see laird doing something very similar to Zorko last year, maybe without quite the ceiling.
@aflfantasyfanaticsКүн бұрын
Yep, very unfortunate news for Nic Newman. I think Docherty does start in defence, rising his stocks as both a starting option and a top 10 defender (if he gets DPP). I also think Laird does play half back and would be a top 10 defender as well. Will be interesting to see how the Crows lineup in defence with Cumming the new addition and Milera also back.

@davidpearce150112 күн бұрын
Good chat Gents! I’m not currently on the set and forget ruck bandwagon however, I’m not sure I agree with Tom in regards to the cash gen aspect for the rucks. You’d only be concerned about cash gen in the ruck line if you were upgrading these players but if you expect them to be 1 & 2 (like Bails) then there’s no need to worry. Even if RoMa and Xerri drop in price, you’ll still need ~$500 to upgrade them whilst running a 2 x injury prone setup. In theory, cash gen is only important in players you don’t expect to be in your team at the end of the year (eg. The rookies), whilst cash gen on someone like a Bailey Smith is irrelevant because everyone is expecting him to be a Top 6 forward.
@aflfantasyfanatics9 күн бұрын
Rucks will be very interesting to see what people are going with throughout the preseason. I think it will vary a fair bit, along with the defence and midfield, which would make for an exciting fantasy season ahead!

Hi Bailz I am looking at a Mid under 666k due to my current structure and have fallen on Ruben Ginbey as I rate his possible half back rebounding role at the eagles. What are your thoughts on this pick mate? Could go cumming for a more "vanilla pick" but already have peatling and don't want to double up on crows.

Riley sanders another pick around that price that could be a possibility as well if he doesn’t get bevoed again…

Reuben Ginbey worries me a bit because I’m not sure he has the ceiling to make enough money, plus he does have a floor. If he was playing midfield I’d be more keen, but someone to watch during preseason. If Cumming is playing in defence I would much prefer him, and I don’t mind doubling up on him and Peatling if both look like good options.

Yeah I briefly mentioned him in the video. Being a mid only makes it really tough with all the good rookies in the mids and some better underpriced premiums/mid pricers so it is tough to fit him in.

That’s fair. Doch is there at the moment more so as a placeholder, and a watch in preseason. I also like Will Day around that price too. Oliver I see bouncing back this season. He has something to prove, and even if he averages 95-100, he’s could be 20+ points underpriced, but gotta watch in preseason. Sicily is an interesting one. I have also heard the forward whispers. Another to watch in preseason, and he also has an early bye which doesn’t help.

Yeah all 3 are great options. Bont looking great in preseason so far. 10 points unders based on the previous year and could go 110+ again. Walsh first full preseason hopefully in a couple of years and could go 110+. Green is the most value and could also average 110+ but has an early bye. Will be interesting to discuss this type of question throughout the preseason. If I had to pick one right now, it would be Green purely because of value, but that early bye makes it interesting.
