De Poey a good price.
Finn Macrae still very pickable at that price although he'll be mid only probably. Everyone will pick Daicos, hope he backs up the hype.

Parish overpriced with Shiel in the side, Caldwell might be worth it if desperate for cheap forwards (assume he's still fwd/mid)
From my POV .....Harvey changed the way COLL played .....obviously De Goey into the midfield was great for us Fantasy players, but will a new Coach agree ?

The other noticeable observation was that COLL have traditionally used Grundy in general field play ....it appeared under Harvey this changed & COLL didn't look to channel play thru Grundy all that often
 
Going to try and pick a really youthful team next year (ideally under 26). Got burned hard by a lot of the older blokes this year and it really screwed me.

Dawson, Walsh, Dunkley and Darcy are the only 100% premo locks at the moment I'd say
And Jackson Macrae. You must have forgotten him.

Grundy is an interesting one, was scoring fine until his injury despite Collingwood's troubles.. Wonder how much was the injury effected his mobility, which is a strength of his. Stopped him getting as involved.

Agree about De Goey. They need a more balanced midfield, there wasn't much interest in defending late in the season. Pendlebury back, Davicos jnr in. Macrae jnr improving. All could effect De Goey. Or maybe not.

Looking at the projected prices my initial thoughts are ideally you want be out and out guns and rookies. Plenty of obvious must have guns

Should be a bit more interesting next year. Well at least in the Rucks. Doubt you see the majority go with Gawndy like usual.
 
Jared Polec? 5 games 50.4 average.

Grundy is a lock.

JDG is a lock to play the same role into next year. Built beautifully into the MID position. He showed immense work rate both ways which even surprised me.
 
Where's Jack Gunston at?
Could be a lower cost option, depending on pricing.
Got ongoing back dramas or just mothballed?

Bar is higher starting around $300k too. You're getting into the territory of needing to be a keeper.

Could be an option if you need a cheap forward though.

Anyone under $450k is not a keeper unless your lucky

I don't subscribe to the theory that midpricers are either keepers or they are cash cows. I think it's too black and white in a game that is grey.

My thinking regarding midpricers is a mixed approach, I call it "Improvers".

It's all about thresholds for improvement, it's hard to explain but I'll try my best.

Say you've got a $200k second year player, no concerns over JS. Fin Macrae for example.


Let's say he takes that 40 avg to 60+
If a player does that, then it's likely they'll make $100-150k cash yeah.
But, 60 avg is the same as what you'd expect from a decent enough rookie, so why did you spend the extra cash to get the same results?
So then, a 200k player would have to average 70+ to be worth it yeah? Makes more cash and provides greater points.

But it's different at all starting prices.
Let's say Luke Jackson. Priced at a 70 average so around $400k give or take a bit.
For him, a jump of 20 puts him at a 90 average, that's good for the forward line and makes him a forward premo, but at that starting price he's not gonna make $150k and get to $550k.

I think just look at their points scored and not cash made, because you could be losing points elsewhere.

Tomorrow during period 1, can you analyse this year's successful mid prices, to help me know which ones to gamble on next year?

I think I have RE so I actually might
