Prediction on following sets of players, both i added up to prediction : 440pnts

Rozee - 75pnts
Pruess - 75pnts
Stewart - 90pnts
Serong - 90pnts
Gaff - 105pnts

VS

Mcdonald- 90pnts
Treloar - 105pnts
Obrien - 105pnts
Rowe/Robertson 60pnts
Sloane - 80pnts

Both 440 it seems, what seems the best combo and/or over/under prediction on some players?
First easy. I don't see Rowe averaging 60 and Robertson still not best 22 at Bris.

I'm sure I read, that most years, only approx 55 players AVG +95pts.
Works out at 3 per side (some clubs have far more candidates)

I agree he probably wont be Grundy level but the way he finished the year, last 5 average of 117 vs 104 Grundy if he starts the same way could be a great POD (and on bar with Grundy, Gawn is next level). I have him in the team over Grundy at this stage as I needed the cash elsewhere and not unhappy with him either.
Last 5 average of 117, last 6 average of 121 :cool:

I know the ruck debate has been had over and over butttt help me out here

Grundy, ROB, ~$260k forward rook

Or

ROB, Pruess, Marshall

Been swinging back and forward between the two options for far too long now

Realistically what 260k forward is going to have safe job security and score at the same rate as Preuss. Almost makes the decision for you

I'm Doc all the way.
Going around 100 avg, Daniel 90-95

Lloyd + Walsh (115 + 110 = 225)
Vs
Adams + Laird (115 + 105 = 220)

Scoring on a guess but top option more durable?

Why not Laird (110) and Walsh (110) and save the extra cash?

Daniel vs Docherty
I've been thinking about this one too. Daniel has a great first few weeks, and I have no idea what position Doc will play with Newman and Saad back there this year.
Doc the higher ceiling, but also higher ownership.

Duncan + Cockatoo
vs
Cunnington + Hately

I probably would have it as

108 + 55 (Dunc and Cockatoo)
82 + 82 (Cunnington and Hatley)

Feel theres more upside in Hately and Cunnington to get to 85 each

Lots more cash generation with option 2

And that's the thing this year, even if rookies are 1 or 2 down on the norm, you'll need to generate cash in other ways.
Que that dirty pre season word, "Midpricer".

Option 2 might make more and fund their own upgrade, despite option 1 getting you a keeper, some cash gen and generally looking the smarter choice.

Whitfield, Sloane vs Merrett, Harmes
Whit has liver issues and Sloanes role is unclear

Merrett, Harmes for me. Both are in my squad at the minute
