Position 2026 Forwards

Rooks aren't the problem.

Where the **** are the premo forwards.
Having to contemplate a range of 85ish players as premos is depressing.

Miller and JHF will get DPP, Roma too if you want him. Probably Chad.

Just got to hold on until the DPP changes.

I ain't holding Trac that long.

 

[Maybe Tomorrow]

No, but just put up with rookies in the forward line until then,

 

[Boyd oh Boyd]

Forward options are dire, but Robertson is doing well enough that I could consider him at F6. Marshall probably not. Worth seeing how he does when the ball is down his end more often or he's not subbed off halfway through the game.

 

[A Bit Dusty]

I'm hoping Cogs can keep going above the 90 average and gets DPP he might end up a decent F5-F6.

Can somebody sell me on Rachele? I want him, but their midfield mix confuses the shit out of me.

I'm worried that Nicks is too big for his boots and will overcomplicate his midfield depending on matchups and perceived strengths/weaknesses. One match Rankine 80% CBAs, the next game it's Rachele, the next it's Soligo, etc.

SBerry, Dawson, Soligo, Peatling, Rankine & Rachele.

The upside for Adelaide midfielders is they now have a ruckman who can win a tap.

I'm not sold personally. He's the sort you can risk as a starting pick, but trading him in is different.

I feel like there’s better options personally. He’ll drop some stinkers and I’m not sure how high his ceiling really is

Great game from Rachele.
But I want to see if this can continue with Dawson in the team, and a few more games from Rankine.
Soligo seems horribly out of form too.

Yeah good call. Peatling and Soligo had interrupted preseasons, Rankine had the ban and lacking match fitness, looks like they'll all be slowly building. I'm surprised Sam Berry is playing so much, he's so cookie cutter.

Rankine and Thrill will be cheap soon and their fixture gets a lot easier.

 

[Juzzomac]

I am soooooo tempted with how bad FWD line scoring could be after we move out of best 18. Has a great bye too.

 

[cacik]

Think its safer to wait for fwd upgrades post dpp changes. Too much guesswork for now.
Most teams will have cookie cutter rookie fwd line into best 22 rounds. Fielding pou aint the worst. Need marhsall back asap too.

Ross, kozzy and miers in mild consideration for me this round but I'll upgrade elsewhere for now

And stay away from shai !

I started both him and Reid, both up and down. I wouldnt be trading either in personally, but theyll probably sit in my side for a while due to much higher ceilings than the dud rookies.

That's how I look at him.....I started with him and he's gone as soon as BE gets too high.....he was already out the door for Marshall until he did his ankle....got a reprieve and got me 127

 

[SELFCONFESDAFLNERD]

Pretty happy with my mix

Sheezel, Ross, Macdonald & Flanders with DevRob, Cook & Marshall as F5-7. Lombard on my bench as F8. Lombard may well become Steene.

Ross & Macdonald are going nowhere even in the long run if they can keep their averages above 90. DevRob & Marshall could be very handy once they gain dual position status. Marshall most likely ends up in my backline and DevRob may end up being my F7/M9 in the long run given he gains MID status soon.

Pretty happy to have a forwardline that i can sit on for a bit. Marshall & Robertson out for this round sucks but at least its a best 18 round and they should both be back for round 5

 

[stevebbb]

Miers anyone?

Since his KO around this time last year, he's played every game and had some really nice stats:
avg 23.7D (15.5K, 8.2H), 5.9M, 3.5T, 99AF, 101.9SC from 21 matches.

Lowest score 67. Looks like the 30s and 40s he used to dish up are gone, his floor is now 65-70.

26 years old.

Can he go 100+ this year?

 

[Here2tellyouwhy]

I am soooooo tempted with how bad FWD line scoring could be after we move out of best 18. Has a great bye too.

This will be his last decent year as its a contract year.

Expect him to sign mid season and become a potato again.

Me likey. Maybe it is a fade Bont time and we shore up some FWD action.

Very much considering. For petracca who I still have due to other fires!

Don't understand shoring up the forward line now when the DPP's are going to kick in a few weeks time.

Far better to wait until then and assess what are the best options to go with.

In theory yes, but who are you hanging for?

JHF - burnman in a shit side (sorry)
Touk - are you paying $600k for him with Trac and Rowell back in the side?
Warner - burnman
Murdock - injured/probably won't play the required 3rd match

Who else? The rest are not SC relevant players.

Miers will play more games and average more than JHF and Warner easily. Touk's the only one with high potential.

Most people only have Sheezel. Having a strong forward line when all these rookies max out or die could be a huge advantage.
