Chad Wingard V Devon Smith

Smith without blinking an eye

Disagree. I think Chad has more upside. Especially at their respective prices.
Dev relied on massive tackle numbers to score well, and those numbers will be hard to back up. Sheil likely to affect his mid time as well. Hard to see where any improvement comes from, I think 95 at best.
Chad is playing for a better team, so should get more opportunities to score, as well as getting some of Titch's midfield mins.
Lots of room for improvement, could go 105.

I'm the opposite to you

Can't see any reason why Dev will stop tackling as much. He came to Essendon to be a mid and he's cemented that spot now. Shiel will impact someone else

Looking at Chad myself but 105 seems extremely ambitious! Somewhere in the 90-100 range I think

Not sure Titchless Hawks are a better side either...

It's just that 8 tackles a game is not easy to sustain. Dev still spent a high percentage of time fwd, hence still being a fwd/mid in SC. He's quite a handy goal kicking fwd and compliments Raz and Tippa nicely.
Not saying he's a bad pick, just don't think he will improve his average and there is more upside in others.
Hawthorn still a better side sans Titch than the Port Pooer.

Chad Wingard V Devon Smith

Smith safe as houses, Wingard has upside though. Would start Smith and look to bring in Wingard during the year if his form warrants it.

I'd probably dump Billings, swing Setterfield forward to replace him and bring in another cheap mid rookie for the bench

Then, with the 300k+ you have, use that to upgrade Newman to a proven prem, and use the left over cash to upgrade Sauce or one of Brayshaw/Crouch



Macrae + Dusty vs 2 of Oliver/Fyfe/Kelly

Oliver and Fyfe for me I've ignored Oliver for 2 years until late in the season not this year and Fyfe well he can pump those monster scores

[Sven]

Dylan Roberton + Jack Lukosius

or

Toby Greene + Jack Scrimshaw

[Peter]

IMO, Roberton and Rankine definitely

Already have Rankine. 8)

[Peter]

Oops I meant big Jack. Then wait to see if selected

[Mantis]

Some opinions/advice would be appreciated

A) Sicily + Macrae + Walsh + 123k Forward rookie  (High end premos and rookie )

vs

B) Z.Williams (D4) + Zerrett + 117K rookie + Gray (F4)

Get more depth with the second option and limit on field rookies. Provides risk in my backline though as D1 is Whitfield then D2 Blakely and D3 Witherden.
