Jeremy McGovern at 1.9%, takes a lot of marks from opposition, clean disposals. Averaged 87 last year, should average over 90 this year which is a good return for a defender.
Also Dusty only 9.6% ownership, despite losing his DPP this year I feel he will still churn out scores worthy of the midfield, and he is looking extremely fit.

Dusty isn't worthy IMO.

Mid only and Prestia and Caddy come in, may spend a bit more time forward which could effect scoring.

Love the Gov but is way overpriced, his role is set.
He has massive intercept abitliies, THE BEST of WCE's tall A graders other than JJK.

Rookie is always better than a mid pricer in theory. In practice, not enough rookies. If mid pricer is cheap enough, still more than justifies the eventual trade. Plus convenient stepping stone to help pricier upgrades.

Nice number of rookies in the backlines.

There's a reason Goldstein is at 13% - don't get your hopes up thinking his scoring potential will exceed what he put up last year. If he even matches his 108 average from last year I'll be surprised.

I'll back him over Sandi/Nank anyday.

By all means do it. Just putting in my 2c worth in as a North fan for anyone who cares about that perspective.

Cheers mate

Didn't he score 94 in 64% gametime with Preuss playing?

Looks promising

Even 100 a game is going to be top 2 in the comp assuming Gawn stays fit. He's still insanely good around the ground for a ruckman.

Was rucking against Vickery, Fitzpatrick and Pittonet - harder to think of 3 worse rucks to go up against. Also missed a chunk of pre-season with an ankle injury. His stand-out trait has always been his endurance, but with an ankle injury he won't have the same base as he has in previous seasons.

There have been calls on the North board to play Preuss over him. Now obviously that's no chance of happening, but it shows how bullish many are on Preuss. In previous years we haven't had any ruck depth so Goldstein was our number 1 ruck and rarely got a rest, which was never a big problem as his endurance was so good, but I do think it's worn him out a bit over the years. I'd also suggest we'll be more careful with him this season due to having Preuss ready to step in when called upon.

Add to this the fact that many expect us to fall down the ladder and win less (FWIW I don't think we'll be as bad as people think, but that may be bias). Less competitive = less scoring generally.

The standard Gawn-Sandilands set-up with Nankervis as cover forward. Started with Stefan Martin at R2, then went to Mumford purely due to shit all candidates at R2 before getting to where I am now with Sandilands.

I really don't want to start with Sandilands, but I legitimately feel like my hands are tied. Apart from Gawn the premium candidates are terrible IMO. My thought is that I may as well pick Sandilands who'll make some money - and with the news today that Hampson has been played on the LTI list, Nankervis looks an even better choice than he did, and so the risk with Sandilands makes sense.

Fair enough mate

I had Stef at R2 before Archie ruined that plan

That's where I get confused, Nank won't be a top 10 player I'll bet my house on that & Sandi is way to injury prone at 34

Surely Goldy outweighs this?
