Didn’t you tell me last year to go Butler over Oliver?
Yes but in all seriousness no one actually picked him.
Won sponsor of the year though.

This year In sponsoring Hurn and yes you should pick him over Oliver.
One is tough as nails. The other one is the biggest stager in the game

Tough as nails until he met Jack Viney.
 
If Bont's fit he'll be a mid premium. He is simply far too good at what SC measures and far too good as a player if playing mostly midfield (which he should now that we have actual key position players).

The question is if he's fit. The hip is worrying and the club are very quiet about it. I'm not alone amongst Dogs supporters in praying it's not a chronic, degenerating condition. He didn't have surgery on it this year as he didn't think it made a difference last year, but it's really difficult to predict how he's going to come out.

Us having an "average year" won't hurt his scoring that much because a lot of his work involves starting chains himself. It will impact slightly but he is still absolutely capable of being a mid premo even if we have a year similar to last.

Cloke & Stringer gone, who are these key position players you believe will make Bontempelli required less up forward?
Trengrove and Schache?

Plenty of top AFL players don't convert well into supercoach scoring so i tend to keep the two subjects separate personally,
Bontempelli does convert extremely well, but as i said he scales largely from impacting games, which one cannot do every single week
as compared to a contested accumulator.

That's it for me too.
Started with TMitch last year and he's the biggest lock of all locks.
Get the ball you contested piggie you.
Zero impact but 110 every week.
Juicy.

Richmond wont finish top 4 again and Dusty wont play like that all year.

Danger would be a must have at 650k but he gonna be over 700k or some shit. Too much for me.

What makes you think Dusty will go backwards next season?

More attention.
Other teams will review your last 11 weeks of tapes and clear as day Dusty was the one that turned the game, especially his work running off his man through half forward.
Can't tag him out a game but you can stop some of his work late in the game when all those juicy scaling points are up for grabs.

Not sure what his final average was but I'd expect a 110-115 next year.
No reason not to pick him but you can probably get him cheaper around the byes. With a harder draw you guys won't be on 11 wins. Maybe a slow start like last year then hit the finals with a string of wins at the G.

Fair enough.
Refreshing to see an oppos view that isn't just "Party boi premiership hangerover!! You'll come 9th lol".

I'll be picking Dusty, barring disaster.
Last year he was finally able to start regularly running out games, but Dimma was using him as a HBFlanker and his touches didn't amount to much.
Then this year, when he actually had some support he was still able to rack up touches through the middle and have them be meaningful.

I'll be locking in Danger, Dusty and TMitch from the get go and watch them rack up 100 touches between them every week.

Very nice combo.

I have a hard on for Oliver. What are your thoughts on him lol?

Not as big on Oliver as other are, but by no means a bad pick.
Similar to TMitch, but doesn't get as many kicks or marks.

Doubt I'd be able to afford another pricey mid (will probably go with Fyfe and Cripps as M4-5), but even if I could I probably wouldn't have Oliver as first in line, I tend to go for players that have a longer history as a premo scorers, but that's just personal preference.

I can't see him getting too much better next year SC wise, just because he's so handball happy.

+Fyfe
 
No Laird?
I'm tossing up with Hibberd. Thinking Lever might affect his score snagging those intercept marks.
I’m similar on Hibberd. He’ll probably still be a decent scorer but Lever clearly going to come in as interceptor. It’ll be a wait and see on pre season set up.
 
I reckon I’ll pick Ablett, Fyfe, Pendles and Selwood over Dangerfield. I reckon I’ll get similar production from Fyfe to Danger.
