Last year I predicted the Dayne Beams would go premium... He averaged 100.79 so I take that as a win.... This year I predict that Rory Sloane will go premium. and a Smoky... Brad Dalzeill.... Snap.. I said it! What do you all think? Who is your SC hopeful?
Im hoping all my rookies and mid pricers go premium by years end saving me plenty of trades and stress! In all seriousness though i expect NicNat to go premium and average 105 PPG
Nic Nat is a chance... probably better chance on DT than SC. Chappy.... surely he is getting too old to bust out the big scores every week??
lots of people will be unable to access the SC site in the hours prior to Rd1 lockout and will be whinging when they are stuck with/unable to trade in 1 or more players named on 7 man benches for Sundays matches, ie - ledger/saad/milera - dickson/c smith - pfeiffer/wingard - k stevens/weedon/brennan
Masten, when he returns, ready to step up. Macarthy, port, @281k, I expect huge improvement from. & Dalziel, agreed, had him in from the start, although I have the same concerns as Tassie Hawk with not knowing Sundays lineup. Hill, Freo, another one likely to step up.
Completely agree with Masten, had him in until his fractured jaw. Dalziel...surely is a massive risk? Only my opinion, I just can't see it. I know he once dominated for a few games at Brisbane, but its been years now and surely his time has passed. Hill is one I will keep a close eye on, if I didnt have enough cash for Griffen I would have Hill. I also predict Jobe will be top 6 Mids this year...IF his hammy's stay intact. Also predict Hmac to become premium too, and Goldstein to lose heaps of value, but remain premium, just. Seaworld will be shut down before the first BYE, and everyone will cash a shoulder-less porpoise in for a new rookie...probably making a decent bit of cash too.
Masten, is this the same bloke that cant hit a barn door by foot or hand in hundreds of yards of space?
That's him, AA. The same bloke that thrived in the pressure free NAB environment also improved his D/E mysteriously somehow.
Watson, Kreuzer and Boak to go premium, Saints to miss the finals and West Coast to come close to it (7th/8th)

I predict that... Whichever POD I finally choose come lockout will be knocked out / reported / injured within 15 minutes of the start of the season rendering all my pre-season structuring useless. (Last year I had JRoo and Selwood in my starting lineup)
On first game of the season, I'd reckon Kieren Jack is a chance to lift into the premium zone. He's close already but fighting fit now.
@fidelsfinger I know he has potential so I do see your reasoning, all I can do is wish you good luck! I've got Hill from Freo in my team now, love a good high risk/high reward also.
That's it m8, gotta take a few risks, no guts, no glory. Not too many risks though. "The race goes not always to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, but that's the way to bet"
I predict Nathan Fyfe will be in the top 2 or 3 players in the game at some stage. Not just yet but I can see it coming. Super player to watch too.
