Steele
Suns midfield is stacked if they stay fit, not confident he'll get enough of the ball
I would say Touk is pretty high in the pecking order at GC, he finish to the year and pre season have been more than solid.

Ablett, Hall and Hanley probably the only guys ahead of him. Barlow will rotate in but wont take that much time off him.

Steele is only better based on price, but Touk hasnt put a foot wrong to assume he will be a key figure in the GC midfield this year.

Didn't get enough of the ball over the JLT to keep me interested
He'll get low 20s disposals, so he'll pump out 70s

Gotta remember that from last year, the Suns added Hanley, Lyons, Barlow, Swallow and a couple highly rated mid draft picks, and only lost Prestia

Given he was one of their best towards the end of last year I think he will find himself with plenty of chances.

I was all over him early, his end to last year was almost as good as Hall's the year before
I just think he'll spend a fair bit of time up forward - too much for my liking

I think he will 85 MAX

If he starts like Hall did last year then I would be happy with that :p

I just think he is a safer bet than Steele, at least you know if given a fair run he can produce. Steele is a complete unknown.

Fair enough

$82k price difference though
I wouldn't take either myself, but if I had to choose I would be more comfortable with Touk than Steele.

At those prices you would really need them to be averaging close to 100 to feel like you won, and I can see Touk doing it before Steele does.

Steele looks like a play that will be a stud next year but will only tease this year. Players dont tend to jump from 350K to 500K plus players in a year, it takes time.

Thanks for your response. No to Ward, Steven unlikely, Titch a maybe. Are you suggesting these so that I can move up to a JPK/Hanneberry type?
I just prefer those 3 to Bont and Priddis. Not sure what the exact prices are, I know they're around the same price

90 will do.

Look at the forward class this year, only 1 or 2 can go 105+

90+ will be fine for the forwards this year imo

Would you go Ward and Steven over Bont?
Yep. Just my opinion, purely subjective of course

Steven's avg in wins last year was almost 120. I'm banking on them making the 8 easily
Ward will go back over 110 this year. Weaker midfield with players missing tells me he'll do more, I also think they'll win more

Would be skeptical if he could go that high. Think Billings is a better chance at the Saints to take a big step this year.
Yeah a big possibility, Billings has talent for days

Steele is on the fringe for me, might take him, but atm he's out
If I take a mid pricer forward other than Ryder, it'll be Roughy I think

Bont

If starting Sandi, i'd go for ruck cover, otherwise steele.

Docherty + Priddis/Bont (which one?)
vs
Simmo + Selwood

Thanks in advance.
Simmo Selwood

Hanneberry or JPK?

I've got Hannebery in at the moment and have been interchanging them both for weeks. Not much between them at all and doubt you can go wrong with either.
