2015 SC / Player Watch..

[fantasyunit]

Bloody hell, Jaeger might miss round 1. http://www.afl.com.au/news/2014-11-05/round-one-risk-for-sun

The player I was most excited about picking next year. I guess if he's good to go we can be even more confident of improvement knowing he was playing with issues this year.

Has anyone heard anything about Kreuzer will he be available round 1?

 

[Conca Truck]

Has anyone heard anything about Kreuzer will he be available round 1?

Well he was close to coming back at the end of the season so I'm guessing he'll be right by round one.

 

[Super Hans]

Which new recruits will you guys be looking at?
Beams, Christo, Whiley, Griffen are a few that come to mind.

Got no idea how Whiley will be priced though.

Beams is just about a lock for me.

Griffen will help Ward IMO, can see him going 120+.

 

[karaoke]

Tim Membrey will play 22 games next year, high half-fwd.

1 game this year for 40 SC pts, not sure on likely 2015 price? Feerits Elf ?

If he is priced 150-160k (assuming some form of discount) and listed as a fwd, will come into strong consideration.

 

[Feerits Elf]

I've got Membrey as a $172.6k forward. Still a nice price.

How are you expecting Hogan to be priced?

 

[Werewolf]

How are you expecting Hogan to be priced?

Having not played any games, I'd say he'd be around the $120-$125k mark

That'd be the obvious choice, I just hope they don't pull some stunt and give him a premium because they know everyone is going to pick him.

 

[Feerits Elf]

Meh.

They knew everyone was going to pick Jaeger O'Meara and Brad Crouch in 2013. Nek minnit, $115.9k apiece.

Has this occurred before?
Any precedent?

Na not really, just going on the fact that they gave him & martin a big premium last year after not giving one to o'meara and crouch in the same circumstance the year before. Chances are he'll be close to standard rookie price and a straight up lock.

 

[Feerits Elf]

Na not really, just going on the fact that they gave Freeman a big premium last year after not giving one to o'meara and crouch in the same circumstance the year before.

Not sure what you mean about Freeman. He was priced in accordance with having been taken at number 10 in the 2013 National Draft.

?? Didn't say anything about Freeman. I said him (hogan) & martin?

 

[Feerits Elf]

Weird, I read Hogan as Freeman.

 

[fantasyunit]

Weird, I read Hogan as Freeman.

Haha, no probs. Anyway, I'm sure they'll give him to us nice and cheap and we can all go and waste our spare cash on picking an under performing premo instead of that breakout player we've had in our plans all summer

 

[Broar]

Not sure if its been mentioned but anyone else thinking of not starting with GAJ?

 

[Feerits Elf]

It's a pretty out there strategy, not sure anyone's proposed it before.

 

[Seymour Skinner]

Anyone been keeping tabs on Zac Smith? Surely he'd be over his ankle injury by now.
Another one to add to the heap of returning ruckmen. Only averaged 70 odd so shouldn't cost too much than Kruezer or Leuy. Most likely at the top of the GC pecking order of he's fit.

Forgot Nicholls existed, still think Smith would be ahead of him.

 

[BC__]

Brad crouch.
Played 11 games this year @ 94.55 so not a huge discount but id rather him than rich.

 

[rocker_oz33]

Did that Mullet feller go to the pies?
If a SC defender could be a option.

Nope, stayed at North. Played a role last year that wasn't SC friendly, not sure what North are doing with him..Booming kick and all..

 

[Sam The Doc]

Thoughts on WC for 2015? Gaff? Mcgovern? Selwood? (only played a couple games this season)

 

[rocker_oz33]

Oh I thought he left thanks anyway.
He would be a good player at different club imho.

 

[Pavlovs Cat]

Plenty of value this year, should mean some strong starting squads

B: Seedsman (360k), Ricky Henderson (>350k), Waters (>300k), Whitecross (>250k), B.Reid (200k)
M: S.Selwood (>450k), Rich (>350k), Wells (>350k)
R: Naitanui (500k), Kreuzer (>300k), Vardy, Griffin (>200k)
F: Wingard (>450k), Walters (350k), T.Mitchell (350k), Sylvia (200k), M.Clark (??), Hogan (Rookie priced)

Based off this years pricing of course

There's a whole heap of frustration there for mine. Wonder how many gems are amongst the slush? Picking the right one(s) is the trick obviously. Bloody Waters makes Higgins look like Mr Durable.
