Coniglio has been coming back into consideration for me the last few days as his ownership has dropped to around 17%. I don't think the announcement of his apparent increased fwd split will really have much impact. I think it will be a very similar role to what he had last year where he would occasionally move forward and generally hit the scoreboard, resulting in a very high ceiling. Also taking on the captaincy this year I think this will be a positive for him and seems like the type of bloke who will enjoy the added responsibility. Has also looked to be scoring with ease tonight.
Also I haven't considered C.Mills once all pre season but has looked great from his limited game time tonight. I think a lot of people had him as a break out candidate over the last few years, but hasn't seemed to have a mention this pre season. Is this because of his role, or have people just gone cold on him?
Another thing to note on Mills is he is priced at $559k which is around the mark of Houston/Doch which places him awkwardly.
I've had Cogs in my side all preseason. Had him from Rd 1 in 2019 too. The main appeal for me is he is priced at 104 but that includes his 0 score. So he actually averaged 111 last season, which means if he can replicate last year we are instantly gaining 7ppg. That's gold for premos. You can make a case that he has historical injury niggles, but 2018 was solid and he's one I'm prepared to take the punt on.
