The official "X v Y" thread

[Ben the Gooner]

With so many of these threads cluttering up the board, post your questions here.

Mine is Kerr v Stanton. Stanton is more durable, and I think he will improve this year, but Kerr is capable of much bigger numbers.

 

[Team Mo']

I went Kerr Vs. McLean and chose Kerr coz he can score massive. I really think McLean will have a good year though.

To answer your question: Kerr.

Mine is Didak Vs. Robert Murphy.

 

[Ben the Gooner]

I think that one depends on Didak's character. Will he come back better than before after being dropped, or will he regress?

I think Murphy may be a safer option.

 

[PAFCsince1870]

While I may end up with both, what do people think of Dal Santo vs S Burgoyne?

Dal Santo had by far his worst year for a long time, but is he on the outer with Ross Lyon?

Will Carr clear more space for S Burgoyne at the stoppages ths year?

 

[Carlton Kid]

Raines vs Houlihan vs Al.Davey

 

[Big Nasty]

Apparently Raines is the fittest he's been in years, and his averages havent been too bad considering his crap seasons. So Raines for me.

Travis Boak v Daniel Kerr v Ben Cousins

Travis Boak v Daniel Kerr v Ben Cousins

Kerr for mine, though Boak is tempting.

 

[Biggie]

Travis Boak v Daniel Kerr v Ben Cousins

Boak for me.

Skipworth v Higgins.

 

[Big Nasty]

Boak for me.

Skipworth v Higgins.

Higgins will play a big part in the Doggies forwardline this year, and has plenty of upside.

Bomber supporters can't even tell you if Skipworth will be a certain starter.

Higgins easily.

Higgins easily.

While I agree, Skipworth is a certain starter, especially with Welsh out. I have both.

 

[Biggie]

Cheers lads.

 

[PAFCsince1870]

Skipworth v Higgins.

Both?

Now Welsh is out for 3 months, Skipworth must be a certain starter if he shows any form at all, even if just for the fact he will be a mature body.

 

[Biggie]

I am leaning that way PAFC.

Time will tell.

Gilbee vs. Millburn vs. Shaw

 

[DESTRUKTOR]

I'd eliminate miburn from the equation. I think others will take over from him. I have had him the last 3 years for SC/DT, but am leaving him this year. Shaw, I think will come back with a bang!

 

[johno_1989]

Gilbee vs. Millburn vs. Shaw

I had milburn, but now went for gilbee

Yeah hopefully most of his pre season training was to do with learning how to handle a tag. Id still go Gilbee though if money was not an issue, depends on who else is there in your backline

My question - Goddard or Enright (Already have S. Fisher in the backline - Diversify ?)

 

[jonoman89]

Goddard, seeing as he'll be rotating through the midfield as well.

McIntosh or Charman?

 

[trix17]

alright, i have 535,200 to spend on a midfielder, who would be the best option? im thinking maybe selwood? thoughts?

 

[Athomas]

Gibbs? How much is Judd?

 

[Biggie]

Get on Joel.

 

[C-Dog]

Lynch vs Davey(mel) vs Cloke

i was tempted by lynch but after seeing last night have gone off.

So much value in forwards I would be avoiding this kind of price range altogether.

 

[Carlton Kid]

Harvey v Pavlich. Which one?

 

[SirJimi05]

So much value in forwards I would be avoiding this kind of price range altogether.

Could you elaborate on this further please?

I currently have the Q-tip but am interested to hear your thoughts as to why you think this price rangeis better to avoid.

Where do you see the value? Who are the value forwards?
