NAB Challenge Discussion

[Daniel McL]

Weller (81), Marcon (75) and Broad (64) #SuperCoach points. Fyfe scored 60 from a half.

 

[catstragic]

Tom Sheridan didn't write himself out of the equation either, 23 disp @ 78%. He will score well as soon as Ibbotson breaks again. Albeit in flogging against the Tigers B team.

Marcon looked decent too.

 

[Flandersss]

Please people - just remember that Fyfe is overpriced, not fit, has a chronic back problem and a likely suspension candidate. No need to change your minds now people

+1.

 

[Stickers32]

Ok Sheridan and Conca time to sit out.. I'm not gonna have any PODs left at this rate. Sheridan with 9 Conca with 7 1st qtr

102 from Conca
96 from Sheridan

... I've seen enough

Aslong as Conca can stay healthy he should be a safe #pod to wells both injury prone but could pay off. Won't see that much of the ball once the A team comes back.

Sheridan is a lock after playing 17 games last year. Quite a few were sub affected.

 

[PowerDrafter]

OUt of curiosity, what do you see Neale producing. Me, I'm sure if he were at another club he'd probably be a 100 pointer, with those guys maybe not.
What are your thougths on Neale.

Being from SA I've loved the kid right from juniors, just a pure footballer. I think there is a few people who wouldn't be surprised to see him being Freo's number 1 total scoring player this year. I'm on the same boat. Yes Fyfe, Mundy and Sandilands are all probably better players but they will likely miss games this year. Neale is durable and can go massive. 13 tonnes from 22 games last year. He had scores of 170, 145, 133 and 141. He averaged 104 last year with low scores of 45, 67 and 64. Do not be surprised if he goes 108-112 which would make him top 10 and a genuine keeper. Could be a handy POD too if you are risky. I'm probably a bit bias because I love the way he plays his footy.

The 102 from Conca is pretty impressive considering what side of the score line he was on!

 

[TheOz]

C. Ellis 72

 

[toxic]

Game-high 18 centre bounce att. for Barlow, plus 27 disposals, 131 #SuperCoach and 126 #AFLFantasy points.

Not an option at all

In fact based on 2 facts
Ross said more mid time
And most importantly
PowerDrafter has his extensive doubts

That to me is gospel

 

[TheOz]

Carn Richmond, elevate Marcon, $102k rookies are ****ing gold.

 

[rocker_oz33]

Whoops got more than I thought.

THose games he got 45 etc, what happened there? Subbed? Seems this pre-season he has been flawless in preperation so you can assume he can better last year. Hes at a tantalising price too.

 

[Hairy Lager]

Wait a damn minute. Ross said!

Ross don't give a Toss...

 

[FAILTOSUCCEED]

IN: Fyfe, Pendles
Out: Everyone else

Only watched half.. Didn't realise Fyfe was off for the first half!

The game of 45 was a low scoring game against Sydney, he only had 9 touches, same game Barlow had 10, Fyfe had 27, Mundy 22 so no one on the Freo side really had a great impact. I can't tell you for sure if he was subbed out or not. The other games he had 24 and 16 disposals. Just off games. The only issue I see with selecting him is that there is SO many guys around the same price that are almost irresistible. Sloane, Selwood, Rockliff, Parker and Wines just to name a few. There is far too many options in the midfield this season. All of those guys could easily average upward of 108. Brave person to start with them all or 2 of them. Even guys like Pendlebury and Ablett are highly discounted. Personally I think even Hannebery is discounted in price. That's 9 guys just there, not including Fyfe, Dangerfield, Beams, Priddis, Mundy, Gray, Mundy and JPK who all averaged over 108 last season. I run by the generic rule of not selecting a midfielder outside end of years top 15. That's 17 names for you.

I love Lachie Neale and think he is about to break down the door of absolute elite.

Broad took his first steps towards a R1 debut tonight, solid performance I thought.

Neale had the flu during the game v Sydney, Lyon said so in the most match conference I think.

So Fyfe only played a half?

 

[Unique Name]

LOL at Vickery fainting in the heat.

 

[GRUFFY]

Yes mate only a half. 11 of his 18 poss were contested, second only to Neale 12 (Barlow also 11).

 

[Thuggee_Cult]

I've had some reservations about Teen Wolf Fyfe at 670k but not now.

Was hoping Barlow would have been more of a POD come Round 1 but after tonight every man and his dog will be bringing him in.

Hope Marcon gets promoted.

Welcome aboard, Broad

Is Yarran (Freo version) still injured or he just didn't make final squad?

Pretty sure he was held back. Pretty sure he has been in full training for a few weeks now.

Was never in the squad for NAB1. Last three omitted were Mundy, Mayne and someone else who I've forgotten.
Still hoping that Ross gives him a go soon enough. Taberner didn't achieve a heck of a lot tonight.
