Yes scanners. Just an example of how professional the Hun are and why anyone should think twice about paying them anything for their content.

All that happened was that the Hun finally decided to update their SC website over the off-season to bring it up to speed with the changes that happened before the start of the 2011 season.</blockquote> Hmm....very interesting! Not sure how I missed that news! Thanks Jason.
Can you leave out Pendlebury, Swan and Murphy and have a competitive start? I've been wondering if a combination of Ablett, Selwood, Jobe Watson and Montagna as starting premiums will be able to keep up with the usually high scorers? I'm working on the basis that their prices will drop and I'll pick two of them up later. I've felt the money saved can be used elsewhere? Am I kidding myself?
I don't think you can leave out all three of Pendlebury, Swan and Murphy and be competitive. I think they will be in the top 6 MIDs across the season. I might leave one out initially and upgrade into, but to leave out all three is probably a step too far.
I agree Jason, Pendlebury and Ablett will be the two highest point scorers in Supercoach this year and will do so comfortably IMO. It would be madness not to start either or both.
I have pretty much built my team starting with Pendlebury, Ablett and Murphy in the mid. Locked in from day one.
I've had Pendles and Ablett as locks for a while, but have been torn between Selwood and Murphy for M3. I was leaning towards Murphy, but an excellent topic "Price Projections for premiums by round 8" by fidelsfinder and feedback from Whips has convinced me to go with Selwood instead. I will trade in Murphy later.
Swan vs Pendles...Is Pendles CLEARLY worth the extra $32k over Swan in 2012? I haven't seen the Magpies play, but numbers seem to put Swan well down and Pendles at the top of his game, so wondering if its worth finding the extra dollars and ditching Swan (for now). The way I see it you want both in the second half of the season, so trying to ascertain who will drop by the most dollars and who will have the greatest impact in the first 10-12 games is crucial. Thoughts from those watching the Pies?
I watched Swan vs Dogs in NAB1. Swan played about 5 mins of footy within that game that basically got his team over the line. That showed enough for me that he still has what it takes (never really had too many doubts). On more of a hunch than anything else, I will not be starting with Swan though. After his bye, he is surely coming into my team.

If your planning on getting him in after the bye it may cost you about the same, or even more than his starting price. Just something to keep in mind.
Thanks NTS. Still torn, but thinking (hoping?) there is more downside on Pendles price than Swan's by mid season when I want to have them both in.
Pendles for mine, only needs 25 possessions to score the same as a Swan 35 possession game and will end up as one of the top 2 scorers in the whole comp alongside Ablett come season's end.

What tipped me over the edge is Pendles Averages 120.72 ppg against his opponents until the bye, Swan averages 127.72 ppg against the same teams...
