I like that we've lost alot of premiums as they really are midfielders

Not sure I'll start with Whitfield at that price tag. I may do but I suspect he will continue coppping attention like he did in finals.

I'll probably pick Isaac Heeney again to start with

Don't forgot Sam Menegola and Devon Smith added to that group will make it solid

A player like Buddy will come under greater consideration if he has a really good preseason

Dusty aswell finished off so we'll could still be considered under priced

The DT Live Drawing Board has the top 10 forwards priced as:

Whitfield 822K
Greene 711K
D Martin 702K
D Smith 701K
Walters 676K
Heeney 648K
Ziebell 648K
Lynch (Ade) 646K
Cameron 632K
J Martin 602K


The Drawing Board over the years has been fairly accurate. But there will be some differences, like Devon will be cheaper as he will get the injury discount. But its a good guide when looking at what your team could be.

Devon's price is right. He should be priced at 96 ish

My 2020 team is almost picking itself at this point:

Certain Locks: Docherty, Roberton, Rowell, Grundy, Mitchell, Ward, Steven, Pickett all picked assuming fit and named R1.

Plethora of cash cow options from this year: Rowell, Anderson, Robertson, Serong, Green, henry, Sharp, Jackson, Young
Or rookies from years gone by who may get a gig: McAdams, Rankine, McHenry, Aithsworth, Stocker, Jones, King, Frampton, Cameron

Other guys returning from injury at discounted rates to consider:
Wingard, Franklin, Smith, Jacobs, Doedee, S.Hill etc.

Then there's players who've changed clubs and /or roles recently and on the radar: Newnes, Martin, Wingard, Brayshaw (shudders), Acres, Aish, Townsend, Langdon, Sauce, Gibbs.

Feel like we're blessed with options this year. Alot of value to be had. Granted there's alot of spuds above but they may still represent value depending on where they're priced.

My forward line will most likely be Whitfield, Martin, Steven, midpricer (Who's this year's Worpel), rookie, rookie

Yep my midfield 8 basically picks itself. Can't see much changing from now till round 1 in that space

I'm not locking in B.Grundy though

And I feel Jack Steven is being overhyped

Not sold on Whitfield at that price point either

Certainly guys like Titch and Docherty help this year

Seen a lot of love for Jacobs priced at 69 but not so much for Nic Nat priced at just 63.

Anything I'm missing here? Anybody big on a fit NicNat in 2020?

Na i think the days of a fit Nic Nat are gone. Even if he was fit to start the season, i could see them load managing them throughout the season. They now have 5 ruckman on their list, so its not like they desperately need him to play 22 games.

Think his days as sole ruck are over. Ie Hickey or Vardy will pair with him I feel

Not sure he can get back to his 85+ avg in a tandem

Jacobs should be sole but if he isn't. He's not worth touching

Nic Nat has never been a solo ruckman. Always had cox/lycett/sinclair/giles/vardy/hickey playing tandem. Nic Nats problem is that even when he is fit he struggles to play over 65% of the game. If Jacobs is solo he is priced very well. If not I'll just grab ROB at ruck 2. Anyone know what ward will be priced at? I'm keen but also hesitant on loading up with too many players returning from injury (Mitchell, Docherty, Roberton, Ward, Jacobs (GWS and possibly north variety))

Ward will be priced at low 70s

I like ROB aswell he could be my R1

I think there's a good chance one of those 5 named aren't risked in round 1

Last year you would've wanted to have started the returning guys like B.Smith, Z.Williams

If they're named you have to take all of those you listed surely (North variety anyway, perhaps not GWS). Too good not too (eg. Brad Crouch). If they get injured just trade them in.

Nic Nat will be forever heavily managed.
Whenever the game is done this year, so is Nic Nat.

Doubt he plays every game even when fit he'll be given breaks.

I'd be taking Sauce over Nic Nat at those averages.

Surely have to take Grundy? Who else is there? Run a Sauce Jacobs / Obrien combo perhaps until later in the year?

Not sold on Whitfield either. Certainly not a lock for mine. He'll be priced at an absurd average. I took Macrae last year expecting that to be a captain lock of 130+ every week but and it ended up wrecking my chances from R1. Too much outlay and it's such a high bar set at those price points.

Just depends on how the rest of the team shapes up and how much dollars I've got to spare whether I shell out for an uber uber premo.

Yeh looking at cheaper guys like Sauce ect

I'm struggling to afford Grundy and Whitfield with my current midfield and backline. But backlines loaded just to keep guys ontop of my notice. Realistically won't go in like that.

Anyone know when the dt live drawing board will be updated to include Pickett and the new draftees?

DT live & updates? Is that a thing.
Took til finals for them to add some players from the mid season draft.
The official app should open sooner. Or at least have a drawing board for ideas, pre planning.
