I may be naive but do you think you can pick up a player that averages 75 at pick 35?
He averages 67?
Last year.
This year I expect him to return back to the 80s like 2016/17.
I thought we were talking facts, not future hypotheticals.
You can look at small samples, like just last year or you can look at careers and age bracket and other factors like team performance.
Take out his worst year and best year and he averages over 75.
I suppose you judge Fyfe, Daniher, Greene on just last year?
Surely in keeper leagues you look further than just now. Surely.
I agree with you. I couldnāt believe Foggy was throwing him out there - so made an offer myself. But didnāt have any decent cards to trade with.
Mate if you wanted him you can target him I donāt care, I was giving my opinion and half halfheartedly too. Iām not saying your bad for making an offer.
The facts before me was he played 19 games last year, averaged 67 with only breaking 100 twice, had career low statistics, dropped a few times and has had an injury interrupted pre-season run this summer and I donāt think he equipped himself well with the new recruits and played very poorly. Those were the facts laid before me.
He may average 90+ next year or he may struggle to get a game, I donāt know.
Hoping that the JLT is a good sign that Rockliff is back to his mega-scoring days. Just logged 184 against the 'Roos with 42 touches. Him, Coniglio and Dusty (if he gets back into scoring form) will make a potent midfield core for me.
Sure will.
Just a reminder to all coaches. If you want an LTI pick at end of draft, send me a PM with the nomination
I have just had a look in UF. 13 of the 18 coaches have selected keepers on there - I havenāt done a reconcilation to confirm the numbers selected are right. The 5 still to lodge any keepers are:
@Stoops
@The_Ant
@Laverde2Langford
@TrevorBix
@Aceman
Remember cutoff is 10pm Melb time this evening.
Also just a reminder, that the penalty for missing the deadline is the loss of an arm.
Saracen Keepers, 2019 season.

Jack Bowes
Aiden Bonar
Aaron Francis
Caleb Marchbank
Blake Acres
Pretty sure Beams and Ward are the only survivors from TDSpartans era, everyone else has been targetted in trade period or drafted to the club. Iāve let some very good players go in order to do so, but Iāve done it my way and Iām happy with how Iāve done it. Itās certainly āmyā list, āmyā build and mixes reliable with improvement. But itās time for this list to mature and start delivering.
Stringer and Mills are my barometers. Both overdue for differing reasons.
Notable departures -
George Horlin Smith. 21st player and gave me some headaches for the last spot. But did an ankle last week and ultimately I opted not to keep him.
Marty Gleeson. Gut wrenching to delist Marty, one of my favourite selections from my first FF draft. The ankle injury is a real worry 12 months after the event.
Jordan Roughead. Think heāll actually play regularly for Pies. But Iāve a gut feel on Marshall and wouldnāt carry both.
Jonathon Patton . Targetted this bloke in a double trade and at times looked likely to deliver on my strategy. But how many knee recoās can a lad of his size return from?
Which arm? This could make a great deal to my love life.
Dennis Armfield.
Plan for the evening is beers, MJ Doco and BBFFL keepers.
I call for draft sanctions for CB, FOG, admiral bull, ant and eggs fantasy football corpse for even discussing Sam gray.
Iāll be doing my keepers at 9.59
My team is sh*t enough without sanctions!
True. CB has been punished enough
