Position 2017 Forwards

[Flandersss]

Anyone looking at Billings. Primed for a breakout and cheaper than Heeney. I'm looking pretty closely. A POD as well.

He was my breakout pick last year

95+ avg looks very achievable imho

 

[Huttabito]

This.

Macrae's lower scores aren't as low.

Plus, I already have Heeney, Florent and Cameron in my forwards so don't have room for a 4th Swan in one line...

You think Florent and Cameron will actually line up Rd1 though?

Any idea why he averaged 10 less last year than 2015?

Florent = yes. Will slot straight in for Papley who is on the LTI list.
Cameron = maybe. Bit of a Ruck/Forward placeholder at the moment but he has already overtaken Sinclair.

Averaged 75 last year ...going to 95 this year is a big jump?

Robbie Fox a shout for Papsmear's replacement?

I like Fox so far. Not very like for like though with Papley.

Fox is someone who I could see starting in the NEAFL and then be senior emergency a lot before breaking in to the team.

If they see him having a role as a forward, he could get an early game with our injuries. If they see him as a midfielder, I think he will be low down the line with guys like Robinson, Cunningham, and maybe Foote ahead of him.

 

[Majunga]

Whatever happened to guys preaching "will get injured". Or is that so 2015?

Think those 2 solid years of 20 and 21 games gave people hope, solid option but is an injury risk, i have him at F3 behind Roo and Dahl

Robbie Fox a shout for Papsmear's replacement?

Thought he was still rookie listed. He's looked alright in PS though.

 

[Majunga]

Higgins has never played a full season, and has had 1 season averaging above 90.

No thanks, I've seen this all before and it doesn't end well.

North's shit now, haven't you heard..well a bird bird bird b-birds the word a well a bird bird bird b-birds the word haven't you heard about the bird?

Played half forward.

Will play full time mid/wing this year and the next 10 years after that.

Billings played 17 games last year......best 22 this year, permanently?

was injured a bit last year

 

[WaynesWorld19]

Guess he's that perfect definition of a mid-pricer, that could bust or boom ?

Yep he's fit and definately graduated to the midfield full time now.

Obviously i know more about billings' situation which may skew my thinking, but i think he'll score better than heeney.

Not because he's necessarily better than heeney- but like mills, I'm not convinced heeney has quite graduated to fulltime mid yet.

 

[Toadvine]

Heeny's got the kissing disease. You can get him out of your team now...

Poor bloke, however never had him in my team but this gives me a couple of games to decide whether he is worth bringing in or not rather than taking a risk.

 

[Super Hans]

Never had Heeney in my team, hopefully people don't go from him to Buddwah.

 

[adammania9]

Out: Heeney and Papley

In: Florent and Hayward?

Has played full seasons in two of the last three seasons

Would wait and see. Will be a POD all year regardless of how he goes. More likely to go less that 90 than more than 90 in my opinion. However if he does start well and look like carrying on through the whole year then he will still be relatively easy to bring in given his starting price

 

[Great 2008]

Lol. Aprox 5 minutes ago.

 

[RavensFever]

with so many getting Dahlhaus is it a risk not having in your side as thinking of getting buddy or gunston as sort of a POD move

 

[rocker_oz33]

Sexy Robbie Gray should have DPP..
