Cooney doesnt like a tag, Priddis wont get tagged, in saying that, Cooney can go forward and kick 5 goals in a game if hes getting tagged.
 
I just traded out Chad Fletcher because he hasnt done much and i think his price will drop. So i had to bring in a blue chip midfielder.. It came down to either Priddis or Cooney. I took Priddis. He is a little bit cheaper, gets plenty of tackles, scored 90 in a badly beaten team on the weekend.

Cooney is a star, but is always heavily tagged. WHen the Bulldogs play Geelong he will get Ling, when the Bulldogs play North he will get Rawlings, and so on..
 
Cooney will scores 75 - 90 most weeks with a few 130's/140's now and then yet Priddis will average score 90-105 with maybe a 120 or so.
(In my opinion)
 
Tough one for sure...I'm still tossing up between the two mentioned and M. Murphy, who is obviously cheaper still.

Cooney: Pros...uses it well. Doesn't need big touches to get big SC scores.
Would have av'd more last year but for 2 games under 20!
Only 7 games under 90 last year, in a year supposedly without a pre-season.
Last game had 5 FA's but still topped 100.

Cons: Those 2 games under 20 were v. Geelong and Sydney, who the Dogs play 3 times...

Priddis: 13 games under 90 last season...but no real shockers.
Av's over 5 tackles a game...but has had 14 so far in 2. (10 v. Brisbane!)

Murphy: Well down the pecking order for taggers.
Good disposal.
Av'd nearly 3 tackles per game last year...
...but 9 from 2 games so far...also a goal in each game...
$55k cheaper than Cooney!...Both in high possession teams.

14 games <90 last year, only one real shocker (21 v. Brisbane), but has scored WELL above what he did last year v. Carlton and St. Kilda.


Cooney probably the best option...Murphy to save a few pennies...Priddis? Not for me. :cool:
