If you squint a little and concentrate on nose / forehead, it's like one of those magic eye pictures and a mushroom leaps off the screen at you*.

Can I ask why THurlow is so hot at the moment. I see him in a lot of projected teams down back. Looks a nice price.
Thanks Dmac.

For me it's a mixture of things. In 2015 he was close to a big breakout (3 consecutive games 102, 104 & 119) but that was when Andrew Mackie was out, so Enright was one rebounding it outside defensive 50 & Thurlow was the other one (fantastic ball user too great for SC). When Mackie came back into team then Thurlow moved to a more defensive role and his scores for most of the season after that was around 60-80. Now that Enright has retired ( ) and Mackie is slowing down & in his final season it means for mine that our two attacking players rebounding it outside defensive 50 will be Tuohy (keep eye on his JLT form) and Thurlow.

He's very highly rated at Cats, hasn't had any setbacks during rehab & was ready for day 1 of pre-season so pretty much had full pre-season (also hit the gym a lot during break, those guns...). See how he goes in JLT but should play at least 2 of the 3 JLT games. Priced at $267K great value stepping stone to a premo I reckon. Great D4 option, at moment my D4 is Vlastuin but if I decide to spend less money there I will bring Thurlow back in at D4.

That's some serious muscle.

Thanks for your time. It is appreciated.
The fact he has had no hiccups and done a full preseason is great news. Will probably get a gig.

If he turns out to be a disaster I know where your kids go to school..........

 

[HellasOle]

Gonna go with Caddy, Wingard, Dahlhaus, Bowes, Galluci and Pickett at the moment
Don't know whether to play a KPF or not might bring in someone high priced as well

Like the Chad, also really like Lynch but probably going to go with the insurance that Ryder provides and only want one premo from each line with R9 bye

not a worry for me, only have 3 round 9 bye Premos in team (Jasper, Paddy and Chad)

easily covered

thats why you start Ryder in ruck

 

[Huttabito]

Hesitant to start with two GC/Port players on a single line but currently rolling with Lynch/Chad.

Could be disaster waiting to happen needing all rookies to be playing so will need to reassess.

Is that a photo of him shitting on your 2017 SC season?

Nah that's him shitting on my last 3 years

Heeney's % of time in the midfield during the finals was 78%. Across H&A rounds it was just 22%. #SuperCoach #AFLFantasy

And besides the GWS game his scoring was 110+

thats a photo of him shitting on YOUR SC season, when you dont select him and he becomes a top 3 fwd

 

[Super Hans]

Would rather see Wingard's first 9 rounds then get him, at worst he's gonna cost 100k more.

 

[Flandersss]

Why are people getting Vlastuin? I'd stay clear of him. Hes a good player and should play more in the middle but there is a lot of competition for midfield time now with Dusty, cotchin, prestia, caddy, miles, grigg and edwards. Plus a few others who can go through there like Lambert, Conca, B ellis etc. I think Vlastuin should play in the middle as well but I think he is sort of needed down back with not many options for the role he has played in the past so I think dimma will keep him there alot of the time. Even if he did play in the middle I think he would be averaging 90 at best. Not worth the risk imo

You need him in there IMO

He could be A grade when you've got a lot of b grade players running through there

Got him for like 300k last year

More likely to cost you 100k less : - )

Also considering it, same reservation / issue.
Rd 9 score = 22 best on-field / e scores, can't exceed no. of on-field slots per line, correct? (max 6 fwd / def, 8 mid, 2 ruc, so having extra mid scores no use, e.g.)

I'm starting Wingard and Ryder, yolo

Looks like he's really feeling the burn too.

Must have started with Wingard in his SC team.

Correct. Won't be able to get the MID rookies scores into the FWD line 0's if there is one.
