Although I do agree in regards to Rowell 105+ ave, do you know how they judge a cp? You dont get them because you have somebody close to you.

That ratio....

Not specifically Rowell related, but...

Do the new rules mean less stoppages - less clearances - potentially less contested possessions?
Probably less possessions full stop given teams will want to just go...
Good news for good users who aren't necessarily known for their in and under work?
Gaff is looking better to me by the day. (Macrae, Bont...??)

Yes you do, it's just named differently, i.e. a hardball get.

You are hopefully right from a viewing perspective. I have faith in the coaches to find a way to slow it again though.

No you don't. If you get a hball receive with somebody next to you, that aint contested.

You asked whether I knew how they get a CP, a Contested Possession, which is very much different to a disposal.

Both Lachie Neale and Patrick Dangerfield had interrupted preseason's and I would love to know are you going to upgrade to them both later on or starting one of them or starting with both them???

I was never starting him even before the groin. Can usually pick him up cheaper and everything points a slow start for him.
He said he was a month behind in preparation to where he'd like to be .....a corked calf doesn't allow him to run enough to catchup

I kept getting tempted to bring him in for Heeney ......but this report gives me comfort, that waiting is the right move

Currently in love with this set up. M1 through to M5 have been pretty durable in their careers, really only losing time to the odd serious injury as opposed to soft tissue. I'll be surprised if Taranto and Worpel don't end up averaging over 100 this year. I feel like Worps could explode. He's fending off blokes left right and centre in the Hawks match sims and can suddenly kick goals from outside 50 as evidenced against West Coast last season. Becoming a fully-rounded midfielder and about to hit his prime age bracket. Those boys with good seasons could end up as great points of difference at M7 and M8 come years end.

Neale currently an upgrade target. His starting absence facilitates a 3 premium deep defence with a mid-pricer and a 3 premium deep forward line.

If LDU is a permanent mid (I don't watch a lot of North) I'll definitely see if i can get the funds to have him at M6 over a Heppel, Caldwell or Hately. What have his issues in the past been? I'm assuming injuries.

A Big Bodied inside mid who was getting his body right. Look at Josh Kennedy's (Sydney) timeline for a developmental type.

Forget that I am a North supporter, there's no bias here, this kid is going to be very very special.
