Aaron Hall seems good value as a M/F priced at 79ppg, so long as he gets midfield time. Averaged 114 from the last 7 games after he was moved to the midfield. With no subs and limited rotations, he should still get time in the middle as most of the 1st choice mids will be resting forward at some point. At this stage I would think that he would play midfield ahead of JOM who might start the season in the forward line since he's missed so much footy.
I'd forgotten about him. Straight in for D Smith.

GAJ, Prestia, D Swallow, JOM, Rosa all ahead of time IMO.

Be interesting to what happens with Dusty, you'd think having being cleared of the allegations surrounding the young women the AFLPA would be up in arms if the AFL/Richmond tried to suspend him for something related to that. So unless they choose to suspend him for being drunk in public (which wouldn't be the normal punishment for such an offence but given the circumstances who knows) he might get away with a Fine/Counselling which would make him a lock for Round 1
 
Jack Crisp a m/f or mid only next year?
 
I think Rioli will be playing round 1.

Much better already than our other options as small forwards.

He was subbed because he's almost 38 and was being managed. Even if you take out the sub scores it was one of his lowest scoring seasons. Not a POD I'd want to have.
Yeah with Higgins there, Boomer missed out on mid rotations and gimmie possies up forward.

Was sub twice; once to send a message about sticking to his role and once in the meaningless R23. Also spent some time at HB (wtf) earlier in the year which kept his scoring contributions down. It's kind of a miracle he doesn't need more managing than he does.

I think you're right; he's probably done as a premium SC M/F. Should still pull the odd big game but with Higgins there, Anderson coming, Garner needing more game time and even Thomas spending some more time up the ground they'll be wanting to share it around as much as they can.

He's a good shot as there is definitely a spot there up for grabs, still would have to perform pretty well in the NAB though I would think we've been willing in the last few seasons to not play a genuine small and rotate the likes of Edwards through there instead

Yeah agreed, But I think Hardwick realized last year we need a proper smart small forward in the side to improve that forward line.

Don't get the love for Brayshaw. Classic mid price second year blues accident waiting to happen.
Contested ball freak, loves to tackle.

Brayshaw's first senior game:

9 possessions, 2 marks, 9 tackles - 86 SC points - 69 AF

He is suited to SC & being DPP makes it more enticing.

Brayshaw has had an interrupted preseason boys. From what I've read in our training points he often hasn't been at training.
Meh.

So is O'Meara & B.Crouch, that isn't stopping anyone from picking them.

JOM and Crouch have history.
Will definitely be watching him though. DPP Rookies are like gold.
