Doubt there's anything to it... Pre-season, he might be a bit sore and there's no reason to risk him.

He has the ASADA issue hanging over his head but hopefully thats done and dusted by season start.
Im not confident with any premiums really either. I like Mumford but he has injury concerns.
I still think ill end up picking 2 of Bellchambers, Leuy or NicNat.
No real issure here Crozan if your considering him, rarely does anyone play 3 games to almost full game time for NAB cup. I think hes probably locked in best 22 and is seen to be a certain starter for the last nab cup as they look to have their best side. So 2 full games from 3 is ideal.
Good to know, i am watching him but he isn't on high on my watch list...he is too awkwardly priced for mine and hard to see how he will score when GC play a full strength side including Ablett.

Just have to be careful with some dog rookies ie: goodes, honeychurch and caleb daniel
With Crameri, Hunter and Hrovat to come into the side as best 22

Melbourne are a tough one. They havnt played anything of quality in the preseason. The bulldogs in NAB 2 was extremely weak and the bombers were full of half top ups and guys playing their first or 2nd game for the season.
So I reckon scores look slightly better than they are actually are for the demons. Newton has gone at about a point a minute and its hard not to pick him after that though. Ill probably pick both it depends what else is available in the mids though. It doesn't seem like Freeman, Dumont will be playing at the start.

His performance did catch my eye. At the moment though I dont know with my strategy I can get him in. Hoping for a NAB star and 2nd year blues. For me it is either Bonti and an upgraded defender or Griffin and Gray.

Has been in my side since day dot. However thats probably due to me know changing my team too much until after nab has been analysed.
Will he get tagged or will Macrae or even Dahlhaus. Can he be stopped with a tag this guy reminds me so much of Fyfe and i remember Fyfe in his second year avg 98 from memory and he has 15 disposals in 1 quarter in his last nab game that year from memory and the BONT follows.

Didnt greenwood keep him to 3 possessions in the 2nd qtr? He is a tough tag because he doesnt rely on marks his disposals come from clearances and contested possessions or when hes forward. Very fyfe like

Yeah but so were Bartel and Scully... Obviously you know more about the Swans but hopefully it doesn't mean anything?

I am skeptical. He may play well but Heeney has really pushed for selection. Cunningham has also played really well this pre-season so there is a lot of competition for his spot (Mid/Resting forward). Personally from what I have seen, I wouldn't be picking titchell or heeney but it wouldn't surprise me if they did well.

In that case I won't be selecting him- it's just too much money for a sub risk player.

Thats what I think. He is also a risk of being an emergency. I think the risk is to large. THe reward could be good though. I would be looking at players like Bennell, T.Lynch, Bonti, Garlett over him at the price bracket.

That the rucks became even murkier
AND....
That there are potentially a shit load of rookie options. We will have cash cows every where this year
