As we start to put our squads together at the start of each year, the question always asked is will I go the guns and rookies strategy or mid priced madness? Most years provide a plethora of great value players who were injured and most missed of if not all of the previous year. Also we normally have a number of premium players who simply had an off year and are expected to bounce back. Not so for the start of 2020.
After having a quick look through each team via DTLive data view I see very few who will represent as much value next year as we have experienced in past years.
Apart from the obvious picks in Tichell and Docherty who will both have a 30% discount on their previous season, I see little else.
NicNat will certainly be value but do you want to waste an R2 selection who will more than likely need to be traded out who is not going to generate a heap of cash.
Dunkley is value as 7 of his first 9 games were all rubbish when Bevo refused to play him where he should have.
C Ward and D Smith will both be well underpriced but Ward is not likely to be a keeper so again require a trade to upgrade.
T Adams will be priced below his potential score but the query on him again is whether his body will hold up?
With the resurgence of Carlton, C Curnow could be a sneaky pick next year after suffering two injury affected scores this year of 9 & 12.
T Doedee only played round 1 when he got injured on 38. Should be priced as an automatic defender selection.
Cogniglio may also represent value following his injury games of 69 and 0. However his two scores of 161 and 192 offset this somewhat.
Who else is on your radar as certainties for 2020?
