Jack is a fantastic SC option as he kicks goals but can also win the contested ball and use it well. I like him as a DT/SC player because he has proven he can score points by racking up tackles on the rare occasions he isn't hurting the opposition in attack
Hey guys, would like to ask your opinion on a few players for SC
Sam Reid- Cheap only 300k, hows he going this pre season is he in-line for a break out year?
Mumford- Will the emergence of Pyke affect him? How is his injury he carried into the grand final going
Armstrong- Will he get a place in the side? if so will he be playing an offensive or defensive role
Morton- Had a great end to last year, will he cement a spot in the side?
Thanks guys

Reid Going well, injury free but KPF and tippett influence is unknown. Watch Nab cup for form etc. Think year 5 break out rule for Reid.
Mummy I think will always be managed so no 23 games a seasons for him. Still number 1 ruck though.
Armstrong will be a good actually option if he gets better JS. Wouldn't jump on until shows form.
Morton will be fighting out spot with mcglynn, lamb, towers, armstrong and eventually rohan for a spot in the 22. Not ideal forward rookie
Heavily Restricted from knee opp... or a sore wrist from belting Jordan Lewis in LA.....
Thanks for the swift reply! As much as i was happy to see him knackered for the GF, that hammy and low back issue isn't something id like him to hold on to. Love watching his aggression.

Hey Guys
Do you think JPK will get more attention this year? Has he been tagged before and how has he handled it?
Thanks in advance

He was the best inside midfielder in the competition last year, and obviously because of that he was the #1 midfielder in our side, and was getting heavy attention most weeks. I'd expect him to get a similar amount of attention this year
His last 10 SC scores were 157, 127, 90, 168, 117, 126, 105, 147, 132, 83 so he was handling the attention quite well at the end of the season.

No love for Jetta having a break out year this year?
had he's breakout year last year
went from 45 to 75
doesn't get enough of the ball to be a viable option, and will get more heavily tagged this year as he is a very important component to our game plan, some teams might even tag him over Kennedy

Hmm I'm thinking of him as a smokey forward option. Could be worth it, if he can add more consistency to his game.
One thing to consider with all the trades available this year is our very soft start
may be worth picking a player like Jetta and backing him to tear apart GC GWS and Roos, then pocket the change and upgrade.
Same may apply for Hanners and Jack, whilst Kennedy may suffer due to less contested opportunities vs these sides.

Absolutely. Don't really think any of those three teams have someone to contain Jetta.
With the trades it's almost a bad idea NOT to make two trades a week.
JPK gets BOG against good and bad opponents. He will just get easier contested possessions as he bats away these young whippersnappers with his pinky finger before jamming it on the boot into the 50. He will also take a few marks and kick a few goals against pretty poor defensive setups too.
I don't mind the Jetta strategy, put him on the bench, and play him when teams dont have an effective tagger

Parker in DT? Looks like a good prospect but as a number 7 mid is he value?
Should get more time with Bolton's gametime being managed. Would think that he has shed the vests this season, and he is on my watchlist. Hasn't played many full games, but he is a gun in the making. Probably other cheaper young guns that would get more time and value though.
If you look at his scores last year where he's played full games, he's certainly worth it, the big risk is the Substitute vest, whilst he wont wear it as often i'd think he'll still spend some time with it on just due to how perfect a replacement he is for Bolton, and Bolton being likely to be subbed out of games.
Edit: If you had a choice between him and Ball though, I'd be going with Ball for certainty.
