Chris Knights
2010 Stats:
Games: 5
Average: 61
Standard Deviation: 29.6
Centuries: 0 of 5
High: 92(Round 4)
Low: 6(Round 20)
Starting Price: 441,400
High Price: 420,100
Low Price: 364,500
Summary: Chris Knights struggled with injury in 2010, playing only 5 games. Is a very classy player who averaged 84,83 and 90 in his last three years. Was said to be looking for a trade back to a Melbourne club, but recently re-signed with the Crows.
The Crystal Ball:
Price: 323,900, 291,500(with 10% discount)
Position: FWD/MID (could be only FWD)
If he's MPP, is just about a lock. Is very cheap.
Verdict: Just about a must have, if he can stay injury free could be a handy cash cow or a cheap keeper.
Will you pick Knights in 2011?
If he has a good preseason, he will be in my team.
Looks like he could be the Danger/Ziebell of 2011. Those didn't work out too well!
unlikely atm for me but will certainly look at his preseason before completely saying no
Don't have an answer on this one, it's a tough choice...

same, will come down to preseason
As a crows fan I find that when it comes to judging Chris Knights I'm biased by how I hope he goes in 2011, rather than how he probably will.
Having said that, if he gets through his preseason unscathed and the price is right (Say sub 300k) I'll probably pick him up.
Will be great value for money next year!
under 300k??? thats a bargain, he is better than danger and JZ.
cheap forwards is how i wanna start after what happened this year, him and andy otten are the two good cheap potentials @ the crows.
if he has a full pre season injury free he is most likely in - wish the bombers got this guy

Don't think so. He averaged over 80 twice and over 90 once in his career. He's shown he can play the fantasy game. Danger and Zbell were more risky as they weren't proven.
Body is right = into my team. No questions asked ;).
i think he has to be considered if he can remain fit over pre season
got scarred by having JZ and danger last year, but i still want knights.
have always loved him as a player and has looked like he will explode.
injuries have set him back but i think 2011 will be his year. :)
So do I. Agreeing with alot of people today :P.
I love Knights despite that he is more suited to the DT game. Should serve as a decent cash cow though so a near lock. Although, any niggles pre season will really put his spot at risk in my team.
he is a mega cash cow, locked in my team :)

Same could average 90 i reckon if fit playing along HF. But ill have to cope with round 2 as i might have Danger as well
Feel we've been taken over by Crow-eaters ;)
hahaha, watch out :)
could go either way, need to have some risk!
this guy is a bargain, but so is Tippet and Dangerfield can be a good buy aswel..
im not sure but his in there ATM
but theres those type of guys not coming back from an injury and is decently cheap...
Definitely a possibility.
i think he has a spot in my team :)
my only aprehension is he is an injury concern...
hang on all players r an injury concern LOCK :P

haha says it all.
Hes a good player, maybe even a cash cow if u want ???
i think he could become a cheap premium

Definetly. He has averaged 85 in the past and was injured last season so should average 80+.
Can't see both him and Petrie in my FWDs, too risky for me. At this stage I prefer Petrie due to Knights' injury record and with HMac sidelined for a while. But I am sure there will be plenty willing to take on 2 LTI recoveries + Otten + Drummond etc etc etc. Remember trades are limited. Need to pick guys who are more durable.
