Live AFL Fantasy Q&A Session
00:00:00
Speaker
Hello, everyone, and welcome to another episode of The Pod Pod. We mixed it up on this episode, did something a little bit different. We did a live AFL fantasy Q&A over on our X account, formerly known as Twitter.
00:00:17
Speaker
at Pod Pod AFL. We were joined by no one sadly. No one wanted to jump on and chat to their boy Dossy for a few questions live on air, but we did get through stacks of questions that were hit us up in the replies.
00:00:35
Speaker
The listener's a little bit bashful to get on live on air with Dossi, but we did get through a stack of topics, including the big ones, like your Nick Daikos, whether to start him or not. Kitty Coleman, you know, is he still an option with that round two buy? Some of the comments coming out of Gold Coast from Dimmer, which were pretty juicy on the weekend, as well as some of the practice matches that happened. So there's a bit of a different setup. Obviously the audio not as crisp along this one, but we hope you enjoy it nonetheless.
00:01:04
Speaker
See you on the other side.
Sam Flanders' Potential in AFL
00:01:22
Speaker
G'day everyone and welcome to Pod Pod Live. It is your boy Dossie here talking all things AFL fantasy this Monday night.
00:01:31
Speaker
19th of February, 2024. And we're going to be answering your questions live. We are at Pod Pod AFL on X, formerly known as Twitter. So here with me, as always, we have five time top 100 finisher, the Statesman. Welcome Stado. Hey buddy, how are you?
00:01:49
Speaker
Going well, pretty keen to get into some questions from the listeners. It's been a while since we've sort of dived into some Q&A style, so keen to get stuck in. We also have with us OG Pod Potter and basically a member of every single other podcast on the planet. He's done a special guest appearance everywhere this pre-season. Louis, welcome, mate. Thanks, mate. Look, all I do is say yes, so good to be here and it should be
00:02:15
Speaker
Should be good to answer some of the listeners' questions. They always bring up something pretty interesting that even us haven't really considered, so looking forward to it. And of course, we have our two-time top 10 finisher, John Harmy. Welcome on board, mate. Thanks, Tossie boy. Glad to be here. And I'm glad we've got all the good ones tonight.
00:02:39
Speaker
Yes, correct. No homesy on the show, but we'll be dropping another Homes Files episode this Wednesday. And I've just had a listen through before doing the editing, as I always do. And that's a good one. So stay tuned for that one. But we will be doing a good old fashioned Q&A for the pre-season. This is raw and live on the stream, but we hope you enjoy.
00:03:00
Speaker
bit of a different format. But first, I think we better get into some hot topics before we dive in here. And just since our last podcast, I think we want to talk about the Sam Flanders dimmer quote just real quick, because that was juicy. I'll try and bring it up if you haven't seen it. But Louis, just walk us through what you saw when, what you thought when you saw this quote.
00:03:24
Speaker
I mean, I don't know if the social media team have gotten into dimmer or what, but when you talk about quotes from a head coach or just in general from anybody to do with the football club, you just could not have crafted this thing any better. I will pat a little bit for you, Dossie, as you get the full quote. I've got it, mate. I've got it. Thanks to the coaches battle tweeting this out. This was the quote. His capacity to run. He's a really good ball. He's a really good user of the ball.
00:03:54
Speaker
incredibly smart and I think he will reach the potential this club invested in him. He's only going to get better. For all those people who play supercoach out there, get this kid in your side. We're going to feed him as much as we can. Stado. If you weren't starting Sam Flanders, despite the round three buy, you'd be pretty tempted now.
00:04:15
Speaker
Yeah, absolutely. But obviously the opening round will sort of determine whether it's worth the risk. It's just, God, I wish he didn't have that early buy. That just sort of complicates the issue, right? But if he's going to be such a standout as we potentially think he might be, then it might be worth just shaving a little bit on one round early in the season and locking him away.
00:04:43
Speaker
All right, there's one other hot topic we've got here, and I'm going to throw this to you, Hami, because I know you're a massive fan of this bloke. He was in both of our teams throughout the entirety of last season, let us down most of the time. But look, there was some footage today of, I think it was today that it came out of Jack McRae looking not great on his injury front, ended up running laps after starting off in the main group. Yeah, you know, I saw that, mate, and apparently,
00:05:12
Speaker
pulled up by him and shook his head and upset at the trainers. And that made me upset as well, actually, to be honest, I'm a little bit sad about it. I'm not too sure what to turn yet, but maybe that's something we can thrash out today.
Jack Billings' Performance Analysis
00:05:27
Speaker
All right. We will be getting through lots of questions, lots of listening questions to come. I just want to get any thoughts on the internal trial matches or the practice games over the weekend.
00:05:37
Speaker
I was at a wedding, lads didn't get to see too much of it. So any insights would be fantastic if you've got any to share. I've got one for you, Dossie. One I loved, one of the media articles coming out of it, that Clayton Oliver starred in the last three quarters against the BFL players. Could you believe that?
00:06:01
Speaker
Fantastic insights. Thanks for that, Hami. But no, I know, Louis, in particular, you were keen on a few people, including one, Jack Billings, that I think you've been sprucing a little bit this pre-season.
00:06:12
Speaker
Yeah, I've been pretty keen on Jack Billings in general, but it was really quiet in terms of what he was doing at Melbourne over the last couple of weeks. And it was great to go and see him have his first sort of official head out for the days. And yeah, I do have to say I was pretty impressed actually.
00:06:32
Speaker
It was certainly an outside role and the CBA's weren't there which you know is a little bit unfortunate but from what I saw within that game style they were certainly looking for him as that kick inside 50 and that guy that can really start to create some options for Melbourne and we know over probably the last couple of seasons that that's been something lacking for Melbourne that delivery inside 50 and I think
00:06:57
Speaker
Jack Billings is is really feeling that role. And even though he didn't play wing and CBAs, as I mentioned, like some coaches were sort of hoping for, I'm actually taking it as a positive because we know that as a lucky hunter is injured at the moment, he's expected to be back sort of round one, round two. So Windsor played that role. Concerns for him, perhaps. But I just thought that, OK, great.
00:07:28
Speaker
Jack Billings had a prominent role at half forward, seven marks, what was it, 81 fantasy points. I'm not going to read too much into that sort of stuff in an unofficial trial game, but he just did the things that I like to see. And in terms of an eye test, I was pretty bullish. I think Jack Billings has a little bit of a point to prove, and we always love that extra little motivation for a player that's going to a new club that might show something.
00:07:58
Speaker
He's one, as a forward eligible player, that I think we're seriously going to have to keep an eye on this pre-season in the next one game really. So, yeah, pretty keen. He's been in my side for a while and he'll probably stay there for now.
00:08:15
Speaker
Louis, speaking of forward-listed players, I was interested to see that Richmond midfield are based on Toronto not being there, Dusty not being there. So what did you make of Jack Graham's game? Did you get much out of that?
Practice Match Observations
00:08:30
Speaker
Not a lot, mate. Not a whole heap out of Jack Graham. He is one that wouldn't surprise me if he became relevant. I certainly need to see another game just because
00:08:42
Speaker
like even in comparison to Melbourne Richmond which is pretty much totally depleted through that Minfield mix and despite the wind I'm not even convinced that anything I saw is sort of legitimate on their side so but that being said he is one that's shown that he can be an 80 to 85 guy and I'm not sure what his price that harm you might have the price handy there but
00:09:07
Speaker
It certainly wouldn't surprise me if he can put his hand up and become relevant but for me he'd probably still be a trading target even if he does put up a nice score next week. You'd have to absolutely kill it.
00:09:22
Speaker
I think there's a little bit of a challenge reading into sort of the Richmond data as well. So when you consider Nank, Dusty, Timmy T and there's one other that escapes my mind, Baker, sorry, Liam Baker, who are all probably their first starting midfield, it's a little bit tough.
00:09:46
Speaker
So when you got four who probably likely to be the first four in there on first bounce in opening round, it's a little bit tough. But it's, Louis summed it up really well. It's the eye test model. And it's interesting the varying points of view that people have looking at these games and Louis someone I certainly trust and saw Billings link up play and I thought it was pretty good.
00:10:13
Speaker
All right, guys, let's cut the crap and let's talk about Thompson Dow, the man, the myth, the goat. Tell me the outcome. Missing the four starting midfielders was my last point, Doc, so thanks for reminding me. Yeah, no, let's stop talking about the internals and the pracke matches and get to some questions, which is what this is all about. We put a tweet
Bench Players Strategy for Early Buys
00:10:36
Speaker
out earlier. I think you can also reply to this space if you've got any questions or
00:10:39
Speaker
request to have a chat. We'd love to have a chat to a few people live here and answer your questions. The first one though comes from Mark who's put in his question. He wants to know, is it okay to pay up for the bench guys? Especially to cover buyers, the guys like Haw, Curtin in defence, Sharp, Roberts in the midfield. So what do you think there, Stado? Are you willing to put a bit more money on the bench at the moment?
00:11:04
Speaker
Yeah, happy to pay up on the bench as long as there's that potential of return because what you want to do is make money. That's the key part where you've got to try and balance points as well as making money. So there's no point having a 200K
00:11:22
Speaker
defender sitting on the bench pumping you out of 30 each week. You're better off paying an extra 80, 90K and ensuring that you're really raising that money. But you've got to pick wisely, of course. I think right now, with exception of the defenders and obviously when we're talking an R3, there's actually a lot of rookies to pick from.
00:11:47
Speaker
Be smart with your research. The forward and midfielders have got quite a few, so ensure you get the right ones to make the most money. And it's probably less on how much you spend as long as it's below that 300K model. It doesn't matter so much how you spend, it's the actual cash you're gonna make. I'm gonna throw this one to you, Louis, but I'll give you a question in between to come up with your answers, because it's a bit of a tough one.
00:12:16
Speaker
This one comes from Peter. Who do you think is the biggest breakout contender in each line? Not a rookie though. So I'll give you a question of buffer time there, Lou, to think of a player in each line, your biggest breakout contender in each line. And in the meantime, I'll throw to you, Hama, your thoughts on Cam McKenzie. Sam currently has him at F4, wants to know if Cam McKenzie's in your thinking at the moment.
00:12:43
Speaker
Yeah f4 that's probably about the right spot and yes he is in my thinking. I've been pretty keen on him the whole preseason because he had a lot of sub games last year so I feel like his average is below where it should really be as long as he's in the best 22 and getting a regular game.
00:13:00
Speaker
wouldn't want to see him getting subbed out constantly. So I'm actually quite keen even if he's on a wing and if he gets CBAs even better, but he's really got to be entrenched in their starting lineup. So that's really what I'd be interested to watch over the next couple of weeks. We briefly touched on Sam Flanders at the start as well. Sam also wants to know, Flanders now a no brainer even with the buy in round three.
00:13:25
Speaker
No, no, he's not. I don't know. I guess I'm interested in Flanders, but they do have a bit of a tough run in that early buy, really do put me off. So look, I'm just considering it. And I'll be honest with you, Doss, he has actually not been in my team the entire preseason yet. So we'll see if that changes before round one there.
00:13:47
Speaker
I've actually differed there a bit, Hami, and I've been pretty vocal about not selecting Sam Flanders. Admittedly, unashamedly, I have certainly taken note of that dimmer quote. I mean, I said it at the top of the show. You cannot ask for a better quote from a coach in terms of
00:14:10
Speaker
an AFL fantasy player. Just recently, it just feels like there's a little bit more confidence in those forward rookies. For one, Finn McRae put up a pretty good effort on just the week previous. Harley Reid is at everybody's sides. Orazio Fantasia was
00:14:32
Speaker
Everybody knows I'm pretty keen on, I think. Lazaro put his hand up big time. Bailey Laurie on Sunday was pretty impressive as well. Sean Manor, who we're yet to see, is another one mature age that does, well has shown a bit at VFL level and can
00:14:49
Speaker
potentially take it up to AFL level. I'm starting to relent on that a little bit, just based on pretty much the small amount of depth that we've got in that forward line. So I'm not expecting Sam Flanders to be that, you know,
00:15:06
Speaker
even 100 plus guy but I think he is probably going to be a top six and he's probably the one that I do have the most confidence in being a top six there and McCray was previously that but obviously did have that injury so for those reasons it's definitely
00:15:28
Speaker
come into vogue for me I think potentially I can cover him with a 60 or 65 and it does feel about right just because some of these rookies as I've already said look the goods and the top end of that forward line isn't really you know blowing brains out or
00:15:46
Speaker
Braining it as a as a hat chat love to love to say I can see DC in here at the moment So that that gap between the best and the worst is minimized. So perhaps there's an opportunity to pick a keeper And take that little hit in round three but then you know truck along and and have him for the rest of the year potentially and I Make no excuse dimmers quote. There is certainly sort of turn the tide for me
00:16:17
Speaker
There's a couple of big questions we've got to ask. And firstly, I'm wondering, where is the police? Is the police in Adelaide or Launceston? Obviously getting some sirens in the background. Seeing warnings, Warnie's listening. I'm tipping it must be Adelaide because they're all good citizens in Launy. Not me, mate. No, not Adelaide, surprisingly. There you go, Harmie. Listen in. Yeah, Harmie, be careful. Something's going down your street, mate.
00:16:46
Speaker
But look, it's funny, we sort of look at the model of how many points we're going to miss in the one round. But maybe we forget who could replace the scoring. So when it's best 18, if you're bringing in a rookie that scores you a 50 and then thinks that that score gets dropped off, it might only cost us
00:17:12
Speaker
10 points from what was going to be our 18th rather than 19th scoring. So maybe
Sam Flanders' Buy vs. Potential
00:17:20
Speaker
there's a scenario with the best 18 model that we're overthinking a little bit the value premiums in the buy and that's what Flanders actually is. So
00:17:33
Speaker
If he gives us scores of around the 110, that's what he's averaging, which is pretty much what he was doing the second half of last year, his price is going to go up, even though the premiums that score that level won't. So you're banking cash, you're banking points, and yes, you get a hit with one round, but it may not be as big as we think. Well, on state, Owen.
00:18:03
Speaker
Worst case scenario, maybe let's say 50 points that you're losing out on that round, but that's what, two points a week for the rest of the year. It's not a lot in the long term if you can continue to improve your side. I wouldn't be getting overzealous in terms of all the rookies, certainly the early ones with the buyer, but
00:18:27
Speaker
I think we do over blow it and I'll be the first to put my hand up that I've certainly been one that's probably overblown that impact and starting to come around a little bit and we'll talk about that in a bit of the strategy leading up to round one but certainly in the forward line where the options are just seriously thin it might be one to really reconsider.
00:18:50
Speaker
And maybe that's the point in looking what's the impact going to be as long as it's one player per buy.
00:19:00
Speaker
around that the impact is going to be anywhere between 10 and 50 points and if 50 points the worst case scenario as you said may hurt a little bit more in the midfield but with the forward line being so thin and relying on potential breakouts lower end rookies all that type of stuff the the impact in the forward line as it currently stands with that DPP
00:19:28
Speaker
the 50 points could be covered over those 23 rounds. Amazing insights from Stado and Stado Jr. both with a monstrous segment there on Sammy Flanders. No, thank you very much for your insights boys and DC chiming in saying Flanders is going to brain it.
00:19:45
Speaker
don't overthink it guys. So I'm going to jump into some of the live questions before going back to a few of the other ones that we had earlier. Rowan Potter wants to know, hey legends, how do you see Port's game style this season? The team points began plummeted in 2023, does it improve and by how much he's even got the numbers here, 1445.
00:20:06
Speaker
per game 18th last year. Hamid, do you see the pair improving their game style after being the worst fantasy scoring team last year?
Port Adelaide's Game Style Improvement
00:20:16
Speaker
Look, they may have a chance at winning a hit out, so I'm not sure if that improves them at all. But I'm not too sure, actually. I can't see too much change in given that they had a really successful home and away season. I think it's going to be a similar brand of 40 from them. But Lou's been down there. He may have a bit more insight than what I have with them.
00:20:38
Speaker
Yeah, I've been pretty vocal in saying that the only way is up. And that's probably a really simple way of looking at it.
00:20:47
Speaker
When I look at the coaching changes for Port Adelaide, they are there across the lines. And also contextually within our season, there's no doubt, and look, I think everybody knows that I'm very much anti-Hinkley, but I do think that the season was very much win-win-win mode, and that just doesn't work in terms of a seasonal, you know, AFL season.
00:21:15
Speaker
By the time we got to the finals, we were totally cooked. Our best players were pretty much on ice and we just weren't able to compete. I think that as impressive as what 13 wins in a row is, I think it is achievable by a lot of football clubs, but they just don't set out to do that because it's really not in their best interests.
00:21:36
Speaker
often see towards the end of the season where the top eight sides are jostling. They do pick their battles and they do pick their rests in accordance to all that. So for me, I think that Port Adelaide will probably play a little bit more of a keepings off and play it safe.
00:21:55
Speaker
this season and if that can get them middle of the road then you know we're talking 100-150 fantasy points to share amongst the teams so I'm pretty bullish that they will improve I think to a point it's probably the outlier last season just pretty much shooting towards the bottom
00:22:15
Speaker
while previously being towards the top. So for me, I'm optimistic and I think they can improve again and use a little bit more of their
00:22:27
Speaker
weapons, you know, Ollie Wines has been spoken about too. So I think there's points to be had there. Where they get distributed is anybody's guess, but I really don't see Port Adelaide being the lowest scoring fantasy site again in 2024. And I think I mentioned it on the ball boys that, you know, when the sea rises, so do all the boats. So I'm hoping that that's going to be the case of Port Adelaide this year.
00:22:53
Speaker
Are you on a bit of a deal here, mate? Getting a little bit of royalties by dropping as many pods that you've been on as possible? Yes, I am, mate. The cost of living at the moment is seriously intense, so anybody who wants to send me a message and flick some money my way, I'm an absolute Marty whore for it.
00:23:17
Speaker
We also just said you've sold your car because you're that convinced you got the luxe as well. That's dossieries of 2023 there from you, Luke. But look, we've also got a few questions relating to Kitty Coleman now coming through. Sam has done it on the live chat, but there's also been a few other
00:23:33
Speaker
people asking in whether it's worth starting Kitty Coleman. We know that he's been a topic in the pre-season already, but Stado, what do you reckon, despite the round two buy, what are you going to need out of him to be keen to go there? I think it's also due to the lack of those defensive rookies that we're seeing, you know, the real cheap kind of defensive rookies and no confidence in those players. I've got less confidence that Kitty Coleman is a great value pick.
00:24:00
Speaker
We know he can go big in quarters in halves and in some games. We accept that. But he hasn't shown what Flanders has shown. So with the round two by, I'd rather take my time and have a good view.
00:24:16
Speaker
listening to to Holmsey and Selby over the years as much as they like taking a punt every now and again on one of those mid prices they're hoping to break out if they're a little bit unsure they like to look and see so pouncing round two round three sometimes is the best option and certainly Selby's winning ear and
00:24:43
Speaker
2007 and that's the action he took so with someone with a buy that I don't know if they've got the the ceiling at all be a standout potential number one like Flanders I'll trade a little bit differently have a bit of a look see make sure both the role and the scoring opportunities are there
00:25:02
Speaker
I haven't looked at their fiction model to see whether on Carl's scale of hardness that they've got the type of run that you want to jump with as well. So he's one for me to watch.
00:25:19
Speaker
All right, I've got a question for you, Hami, and I'm interested in the answer. I haven't seen too many people bring this up as yet this preseason with all the talk about value, trying to get, you know, players that obviously can make that money, even if they are in the premium category. Brisbane Bloods Fantasy wants to know, do we need captain options? And if so, how many and at what price point are you willing to pay up for that captain option?
00:25:43
Speaker
Yeah, that's a good question. I was always of the opinion that you needed two good captain options. But I guess, you know, now we can loop and we'll probably have a range of options over the first six rounds about, you know, a red dot to chuck a loop on. I'm not sure how essential it's going to be compared to other seasons. So for me, I'll just have a quick look mate.
00:26:41
Speaker
I got to say, I think when we made our team the other day on the podcast, obviously you guys took a bit of liberty when I disconnected there and threw a few random names in the mix. But I got to say that's one of the reasons why even though it's probably a looser pick and not many people would go there, there is some, you know,
00:26:58
Speaker
I don't know, safety in picking someone like a Rowan Marshall who's over the $1 million, but the safety in the role, the safety in the scores. I don't know if you're going to go a bit different. I'd be wanting to pick a role that is just so locked in like your rock spot to get those sort of ceiling scores. But yeah, it's interesting. And whether you're willing enough to pay up for captaincy options is going to be an interesting one going forward. There is a difference between getting disconnected and being kicked off.
00:27:29
Speaker
Yes, that is true. Louis, I want to go back to that question. We've given you about 20 minutes buffer. So have you got a breakout contender in each line for us? Yes, I do, mate. I'll start from the forward line. And this one I've been banging on about for a while now. James Jordan is probably my breakout contender in the forward line. I'm not sure where that's going to lie. Definitely need to get a look at him.
00:27:58
Speaker
just based off of all the sub games that he's endured really throughout his whole career to this point. I think he is more of a 70 guy than the 50 that he's priced at and with a bit of natural development potentially and just a little bit more confidence in his role and a little bit more confidence from the coaches. They probably seeked him out, James Jordan, to come over and join Sydney and gave him some reassurances.
00:28:28
Speaker
I'm sort of seeing at least 20 points upside there in the forward line, which is something which is a line we're scratching around for options. Is James Jordan for any of you guys also an option in your forward line?
00:28:44
Speaker
Yeah, Louie, I've sort of been interested in him the whole time, but it's sort of a funny one, like the Swans seem to be a club that you don't get much out of. You sort of seem to hear a lot about those middle of Melbourne teams,
Cam McKenzie's Viability at F4
00:28:59
Speaker
but and a bit out of WA actually, which has been nice because there's some interesting options there, but
00:29:04
Speaker
Yeah, with the Swans, you wouldn't know who's in their midfield mix at the moment. You don't even know if he's best 22. Like, there's good reasons for him going up there, being pursued. You know, Steven's gone. So, you know, he's arguably a spot there for him. But I guess until we see it, I'm a little bit uncertain. And for myself, I think Swans, outside of winning finals, are becoming a little bit like the new Essendon, where there's
00:29:30
Speaker
so many mouths to feed. So I want to see what happens in opening round. Sorry, morning was there so I just thought it was an opportunity. I totally agree with that guys. I do like the fact that Matt Roberts has been mentioned as being one of those guys that's in the best 22. So when I'm looking towards guys that may or may not be the sub if there's
00:29:52
Speaker
A couple of guys that I can identify as somebody that may go before them, that's always happy days for me. But moving on to the ruck line, I think the obvious one, and look, I won't throw to any of you guys for this one because we've probably discussed it a little bit and I'm sure we will continue to do so. But Tristan Cherry should be the number one ruck at North Melbourne, was somebody that people were keen on, coaches were keen on last season.
00:30:22
Speaker
I'm hoping he can break out, he's priced at 65 sort of region. I think that he can break out to be sort of 85, 90, potentially even 95, which if he is, that's fantastic. I can jump up to the next best ruck whenever I see fit. And the reason I really like him too is because even though we go, oh, gone Grundy, gone Grundy,
00:30:48
Speaker
There's a potential sort of scenario where neither of those are set to get. You know, we've got Rowan Marshall who put his hand up in lights last year and went at the 115 plus. And we've got Tim English, of course, which went at the 119 or whatever it was. So even though I'm not suggesting that if some of these guys go 110 that you would trade them, they're also at the same time.
00:31:16
Speaker
not necessarily top two rucks either. So that's why I lean to Tristan Cherry. He may be able to be that guy that does bridge that gap between the next best comp. Do you guys agree with that logic or do you think there's a little bit more to it?
00:31:35
Speaker
I don't mind it, Lou. Yeah, I've been thinking is, you know, all of these things that you have said, I have thought as well. So that rock line is going to be interesting. I don't use a lot of people saying it's gone grandi, but I said all along, I'm still open to the idea of having a marshal or an English and cherry definitely in the mix.
00:31:56
Speaker
And I'm going gone Grundy, but because of the buys, I'm open to switch if one or both are not working out. Does it worry you at all, Stado, that for that buy, obviously with the rucks, that potentially you've got no cover? And I'll just ask that because
00:32:20
Speaker
The narrative all season for all these early bi-plays has been that, OK, well, if I select them, I'm going to have to take this guy off the bench who may score a 50, a 60, best-case scenario, a 70 potentially. But in the rocks, it really is quite isolated. And if we're not going to get
00:32:42
Speaker
a Toby Conway or a Jordan Sweet for those coaches looking to pay up for him. It literally is just a straight donut. You're not copying anything. It is best 18 so you can hide a little bit but just having that one less can still affect your bottom end of that best 18.
00:33:00
Speaker
well more this year more than any other for quite some time the rule I think one becomes so important especially through those four early buy rounds but yes I'm certainly praying that we have an R3 option
00:33:17
Speaker
I think the most likely at the moment is Conway to be honest with the reports and they are very thin on the ground of course but the reports is Conway is competing well in the rut contest but winning around the ground so
00:33:36
Speaker
I hopeful it comes off, but yeah, it is certainly a threat, mate. So it's certainly something I'm keeping an eye on. Stato, just quickly, mate, rule effing one for the new listeners. We actually do like new listeners here at the Podpod, unlike the draft doctors.
00:33:48
Speaker
Yeah, can't stand them. Look, it's 30-degree dots. And of course, that's all about, and we know that's not realistic, right? That 30-degree dots disappears about round three or four when you've had LD, you and your squad, and many others that are gonna get injured. Sorry, still hurting from that. Two donuts, Dos, two donuts. But,
00:34:14
Speaker
Basically it is that if you've got 30 playing and you've based your squad on having value players or undervalued premiums that you're generating income. So it's all about making as much money as you possibly can to complete your squad as quick as you can. As soon as you've got red dots sitting there for long periods of time they're not making you money therefore you can't use them for the one up one downs and it takes longer to complete your squad.
00:34:43
Speaker
All right, Lou, let's get to your last couple of picks here for breakout contenders and we'll get on to the next questions. Yeah, mate, moving on to the midfield and I feel like such a fraud for this. I'm going to be picking Nick Martin and admittedly was somebody that you were keen on the other week when you asked Aemon or Martin Dossi.
00:35:04
Speaker
I'm thinking you might be right there. And before I go into Nick Martin, the reason I've just called a little bit on Carlaymont is the injuries to GF and Dylan Moore, I think.
00:35:17
Speaker
Aemon was definitely earmarked for that halfback roll and he's an absolute gun on the wing as well and a meter's gained beast. And I'm just a little bit worried that if Hawthorn do struggle to move that football from sort of the mid area of the ground towards their forward 50, that Carl Aemon, he really is a shoo-in to be able to do that. He's an absolute lethal boot.
00:35:42
Speaker
And I think he's certainly capable. So while I think he probably will start at half back, the potential that he does go to a wing and doesn't in turn gain DPP would be, to be honest with you, a little bit of a disaster of a pick through the midfield.
00:36:02
Speaker
With Nick Martin, they've been super consistent all pre-season and he's gone back to half-back. All the match reports, he's there, he's the man, everything is going through Nick Martin.
00:36:16
Speaker
being a team that were the most conducive for fantasy points last season for defenders and keeping in mind that the top averaging defender was only in 85 anyway, there's just a large distribution of points back there and I think Nick Martin is built a little bit different and can really capitalise on that. Kick-ins have been already noted and for someone who has moved off the wing due to their
00:36:44
Speaker
look a bit harsh in their ineptitude to defend. I think the halfback role really is suited to him. And if he can go at 94 courtesy of Jadon Papowski's stats on his website, which I'm sure if he's not tweeted out, we'll tweet out soon.
00:37:02
Speaker
Uh, the 94 is the worthwhile average for him as a defender. So taking a little bit of liberty, hoping that he does pick up that defensive status. I think he will. But for that reason, uh, him being a keeper at priced at what 86, he's probably the one that I think can break out to be that 100 plus guy, which would be not only a great pick as a midfielder, but a total smash play as a defender. Huge, uh, Hama, you're our Essen and man, just your quick thoughts on Nick Martin.
00:37:32
Speaker
I'm not as keen as some others at the moment. I think I've seen the training reports awesome and he can certainly rack up on his day and he can get loose and get a mark in that back line for sure. But we got quite a lot of defenders.
00:37:49
Speaker
I don't know, his bit of competition for the role. And he was also really good on the wing. I think that that's actually been put in place to try and assist like Durham, Dursma, Sardis. So, yeah, look, I'll keep an eye on it, but I'm not as solid as Louis is, but that's okay.
00:38:07
Speaker
But Hami, that's just it though. They do need to get those minutes into those guys through the midfield. I'm just not
Essendon's Defensive Lineup
00:38:15
Speaker
sure, and you're the Essendon man, mate, so I'm not going to push back too hard on this, but I'm not sure who they see as the main ball user back there. I know a couple of weeks you said Laverde probably isn't the man anymore. He was playing key defence, does Ridley start to lock down a little bit more. Redmond can sort of do both things. Obviously you've got Ben McKay there.
00:38:37
Speaker
I just wonder, with Andy McGraw as well, probably not being that guy, I just wonder if more of that pill does flood through Enigma and who, you know, up to this point, in terms of reports, is just getting glowing ones. Yeah, look, I don't want to get too bogged down on this one, mate, but I think that Redmond's the one that's got that penetrating kit coming out of our back line and McGraw at times as well. So, yeah, that's what I mean when I say the bombers have got options.
00:39:07
Speaker
Alright, before we get to your forward pick, Lou, we'll just swing a few questions through the lads as well. Just one for you, Hami, from John. Do outside players like Beretschau score better early on in the season when the weather is better?
00:39:21
Speaker
before it comes wet weather and contested footy beasts like Jack Steele flourish. Anecdotally, that's what people say, but I'm not sure. I think in the first couple of rounds, we usually see a few sort of funny results anyway as people are finding their feet and adjusting to different game styles and that sort of thing. So I don't know if you could just say all outside players are going to go hot early. I don't think that's probably a fair comment.
00:39:47
Speaker
Josh Lord wants to know, Stado, I know you were keen on the podcast, but your thoughts on Geordie Clarke from Freo averaged 88 while Young was in the midfield last year.
Geordie Clarke's Fantasy Value
00:39:58
Speaker
Yeah, I like to pick. I really do and has got that goodbye system. He's got a few things going for him with regards to the player positioning, both Chapman and Young sort of out of that mix. It's him and Ryan that I think will get the major benefits. So
00:40:21
Speaker
I think there's some value. I don't know how high the ceiling is. What's he priced at, Dossie? It's mid 80s. 77, I think. Oh, wow. So I think there's a good 10 to 15 up for grabs there. So yeah, I think he's a good pick.
00:40:41
Speaker
Love it, mate. And anyone listening live, feel free to request a speak. We will answer your questions live on air as well, but happy to keep getting through these questions that you've commented in. Make sure you do comment if you've got a question. This one from Jaden Greenfield. Thoughts on Isaac Rankin as an Adelaide man. Did see on the news the other day playing heavy midfield time priced at 74 with only the 2% center bounces last year. Let's go to Stado again, mate.
00:41:09
Speaker
What do you reckon on a bit of the Isaac Rankin pod? With the knowledge, of course, Rory Led was not in that match sim playing midfield, but a friend of mine actually the other day noted to me, despite Rankin not playing in the midfield, playing in that high half forward role last year, now I didn't fact check this, so hopefully it was spot on, but was one of the leading, if not the leading, kilometres run for the crows. So certainly got that fitness, which maybe in the early days with
00:41:35
Speaker
injuries kind of in the early career. You wouldn't have thought that he'd be leading the crows in the kilometres. Yeah look it's an interesting one and I'm not huge on this. I am in draft but when you talk there's Peddler, there's Rochelle and there's Rankin that are all in that mix to get a little bit of the first time through the
00:41:57
Speaker
the midfield, they'll probably share a little bit of that high half forward as well. But Rankin and Richelli, I think they want predominantly more closer to goals because of the impact they can have on the scoreboard. So therefore, I think you're going to have a lot of ups and downs and all disturb the cash generation. I really like the player, but I don't know if it's the right go to get him in fantasy.
00:42:26
Speaker
All right, one more question then we get to lose forward breakout. This one's for you, Hami. Thoughts on Sexton? Bit of a word out of the Suns that he's in that half back roll in a bit of a roll change.
00:42:38
Speaker
Yeah, and I've heard that a few times now. Big sexy in the forward line. 382,000. I'm pretty interested to see that. I guess we have spoken before about there being some opportunity in that back line. And, you know, like, Lucky Weller's not there. Connor Buderick should have a bit of a role. But it'd be interesting to see. My only question is,
00:43:01
Speaker
He's a 30-year-old that they're asking for a roll change. So, geez, everything would just have to fall into place really well for that to pay off. But I'm definitely interested. I mean, he's got a lot of skill. He seems fit enough. He just sort of seemed to fall out of favor with that forward line. So, yeah, if he's coming off that halfback flank, accumulating a few possessions, I'm interested at his price point.
00:43:24
Speaker
Look, sorry to just butt in there, Dossie, but yeah, I think there's plenty of blokes out there that love a sexy whore sort of set up, so that might be one to go. Nice one, Luke. Yeah, don't get too excited there, DC, as well, when we're mentoring Butterick, because he'd be quite keen on that combination as well, so maybe the
00:43:47
Speaker
Sexy whore butter Rick. All right. So over to you Lou. Let's hear your forward pick for your breakout because I think a lot of us would love to hear this because Everyone's needing a bit of a bargain up forward and a breakout could do the job for us Yeah, it's interesting you say that Dossie because I did start with James Jordan who of course is a forward All right. Yep
00:44:11
Speaker
What are we up to? Have you finished your breakouts then? No, I'm up to defenders mate. And Stado did answer the question beautifully with Jordan Clark. He is the guy that I'm putting my chips on. He's got a defined role with Hayden Young moving into that midfield.
00:44:28
Speaker
Obviously Chapman did have that injury as well and I just think that this guy is just primed to go bang at this point. The fitness is up there which we love to see from a half back point of view. The game style is there with Freeman who love to kick mark, kick mark all day and it's just
00:44:49
Speaker
uh the the ceiling that we have seen previously and certainly in that preseason game a couple of years ago which yes may put a bit of a bad taste in some coaches mouths but we don't see even in preseason games too many players um of elite attributes to sort of go at that 160 plus mark so for me I think Jordan Clark with a bit of extra responsibility elite fitness in a
00:45:15
Speaker
And a bit of a leadership role back there is probably one of the more mature players at Fremantle in that defensive six. I think he will be the guy that the football flows through, priced at 76. I can see 15 points upside there. And I also see him, if he's not a keeper, as being that sort of stepping stone to a Nick Daikos, which is certainly relevant this year. And for the coaches not starting him, he could be your ticket to success there.
00:45:45
Speaker
Very nice pick, loving my Geordie Clark as well. Stado, just quickly, one of your thoughts on Butterick and Sexton, I don't know if we grabbed them there, just because Robert, Mr, the reigning number 24 overall, by the looks, wants to know your thoughts, considering you were one that jumped on Darcy McPherson last year for his little nice run to study.
00:46:05
Speaker
Yeah, but the role was really good last year, but we've got to remember that was under Stuart Dew. But we've also got the dimmer model that really elevated Short to become a premium defender. So dimmer has given us a few little tips. So Bruderick was one he did call out as the Jordan Short type.
00:46:30
Speaker
and he's also given us a good little interesting thought on Flanders which is which is brilliant and great to hear from the coaches Kenny and dimmer doing the right thing by us giving us a clear picture of what they're doing which is promising sexy look I just want to say it I've talked about
00:46:50
Speaker
sexy a little bit on the draft doctors this week. And my opinion was that he's got all the attributes and someone with high level talent that the Gold Coast have never got the best out of. So he's got pace, he's got great skills, he's got a bit of X factor and has been sort of sitting there in the forward line, probably wasting his talent a little bit for some years when it comes to a fantasy.
00:47:20
Speaker
perspective so I would love to see it and we get the opening round to have a bit of a look and if he pops out a good score then he should be of interest so we can make a bit of money out of him for the first two rounds back you know obviously three price changes effectively because you get the opening round score so he's one I'm looking at because I think he's only 382 off the top of my head so that's a damn good price if you're going to have a
00:47:48
Speaker
a 70 or an 80 sitting next to his name. This is another interesting question coming from Michael Neeson. This one's for you, Harmee. Common theory is the swans have many mouths to feed and many also believe that Adams and Parker will share roles.
Taylor Adams as a Forward Option
00:48:08
Speaker
Parker on the average 90 mostly as a mid, so why are many picking Adams if a 90 maximum only means a 13 point upswing and he has that early buy? Because he's going to make 13 points and he's in the forward line where we're starved of options.
00:48:25
Speaker
There's probably a couple of good reasons. I mean, I think that he'll be 90, somewhere between 90 and 100. That's my personal opinion. I have no real facts to back that up, but that's where I see it going. I'll just give you a couple of names, actually, Dossie, while we're talking about it. I reckon Parker Warner Adams,
00:48:45
Speaker
with a bit of a row bottom and Gordon Papley sparingly. So yeah, that's what I'm tipping is the midfield, which means he'll get a high rotation. He'll be sort of around that 50% mark, I reckon. And that's probably enough for him to accumulate a good, good fantasy score.
00:49:04
Speaker
I think the key thing, Dossie, to note here, and we're all guessing until we see it right. So we've got to give the opportunity to have a look and we will at opening round and against some good opposition, which is actually even better. But the key thing for me and the reason why I'm excited, we know Adam's scoring power when he's got the right role.
00:49:27
Speaker
But the key thing that he's got is his strengths is their weakness. So I can't imagine at this stage, but maybe proven wrong because it's only theories at this stage, that why would you split 50-50 and only improve your weakness by 50%? I'd go full hog if I was them.
00:49:53
Speaker
I tend to agree with that too, Stato. I think he will be pretty prominent in that midfield role. Where he ends up in terms of scoring is anyone's guess. It's certainly not encouraging that some of their best midfielders outside of Goulden are really just edging that 90 mark.
00:50:12
Speaker
Look, I do think that Adams can go at that 90, which is about, you know, 13 to 14 points upside. Where I do see some concern and something I probably haven't seen or heard mentioned much, and maybe I haven't been listening enough, but Brody Grandy is coming into that midfield, and he's someone that all of us are sort of going, okay, he's 100 to 105 guy, you know, he's going to have that automatic upside. He's an absolute gun.
00:50:41
Speaker
When I look at the Rockman last year, which was Tom Hickey, and I don't have the numbers what he averaged last year, but it wouldn't have been much more than 80 if that. I wonder where those points sort of come from. There may be more stoppages and all that, but everybody says that Brody Grundy does play as that extra midfielder. So that does worry me a little bit. On the flip side though, I can see there being some cohesion
00:51:08
Speaker
within that sort of partnership, obviously both coming from Collingwood as well. So I'm a little bit more hesitant on a Taylor Adams, but that being said, at the 691k price mark, I think you've got probably a plethora of options to drop down. Alex Neil Bullen, which was someone you were keen on, Sato, just the other day, is there at 650. Connor McDonald being spoken about the whole pre-season at 638k.
00:51:37
Speaker
James harm's 637k and you know Liam Baker we've mentioned a couple of times too so he does provide that parachute that if he doesn't fire in round zero that we can drop down and go off sweet. I've got that 60k pocket money to go and spend elsewhere.
00:51:54
Speaker
And the other question obviously is, is his body, but hopefully he does the right thing. If he does get injured, make it the 25 minute mark of round four and we're all sweating. The thing about Adam's though, I mean, I spoke with Bales about this. Um, he hasn't scored below what he's priced at in the last 10 years. So I can't see him came backwards. Like he's gone there for an opportunity. And in my opinion, a promise of an inside role. Uh, I just think he's going to have a good year.
00:52:22
Speaker
Saving your best content for the other podcasts as usual there. Hami, thanks mate for that. No, but we'll get on to another question and go back to the nibbler, Vestado. Alex Neil Bullen, another question coming in about him. So, played a centre bounce role on the weekend. We know that there's likely a bit of a delayed start to the pre-season or sorry to the season proper for Clayton Oliver potentially or maybe less of a minfield role while he gets his fitness up.
Alex Neil Bullen's Role Increase
00:52:49
Speaker
Alex Neil Bullen, probably not one that we would have thought. We kept looking at the sparrows, at the potential for Billings to go in there, but maybe an Alex Neil Bullen, bit of a nibbler action, up forward with the centre bounce roll. Thoughts, Sato? Yeah, he's got great scoring power. Look, we've seen a 140 from him before, so right roll, right opportunity. He could be a great score for us. So I'm going to have a keen eye on round zero.
00:53:15
Speaker
the data for those four quarters admittedly without Oliver but we actually know that their forward line sorry their mid field's a bit thin so they've got a few issues so they'll be looking for other people to put a bit of work rate in and positive signs with his percentage which was just below 70 for those four quarters higher than Betruca
00:53:42
Speaker
and what a Patraka do nice and early, show how good he is in front of goals. So that's good signs. So he's a bit of an ace in the pack if it eventuates and he does get good midfield time. I think the one in our midfield though is finding at the minute that we should be sort of having a bit of a look at. Big time. Finished the season well last year.
00:54:02
Speaker
He's a pure inside mid. He's not going to be chopping out in that forward line for it. Like he'll have the highest percentage of CBAs I would expect. So he's one to have a look at.
00:54:15
Speaker
A juicy point of difference, if you will, their harmony. Love that. And Stado as well. So yeah, a few to keep an eye on for Melbourne. Still interested to see what happens with that whole dynamic. Just looking through some questions. How have we got through enough here? Sorry, boys. Padding a bit. Oh, Daikos. We want our thoughts on Daikos.
00:54:38
Speaker
I mean, it's been a hot topic day cost to the season. I think most
Nick Daikos in AFL Fantasy: Pros & Cons
00:54:42
Speaker
of us think he is going to be the D1, but I think a majority of the pod squad here aren't keen on starting day costs. Is everyone on that same boat stato?
00:54:52
Speaker
Yeah I've never been a fan and for as long as I can remember playing this game where you you pay for the highest price player in a line. Just never been for it. I've always looked for the value and obviously he's got a couple other things that have a little bit of a concern. So he plays
00:55:14
Speaker
Sydney Swans round one, he's toughest opponent. He's got Hawthorne with a potential tag and we've got to be careful last year, sort of, Louis sort of planned not to have him because of a tag so and as we found out that was the incorrect call.
00:55:33
Speaker
and then you've got the buy. So there's sort of three things that you got that sort of question mark as well as being at the max price. Now I'm not saying he doesn't improve because we know this one is a special player but he's the type that I'm willing to see what happens and make him a target after his buy. Same thoughts for you Lou?
00:56:04
Speaker
Yeah, he is super interesting. And Sato did mention that we were, I mean, a large group of coaches last season weren't interested in starting him due to that tag threat. And I sort of think, you know, how many times as fantasy coaches do we sit back and go, oh, I was a year early on that one. And I'm not saying that's necessarily going to be the case, but Nick Daikos, make no doubt about it, certainly put his name up in lights.
00:56:34
Speaker
He is the guy to propel Collingwood forward and he is the guy that really did get into a grand final in the end and eventually won it.
00:56:43
Speaker
Quite often, when something like that happens, opposition coaches take note. He's their best player and we do talk about specific tag scenarios like a fin, a windy, potentially a drew, but outside of that, it's not only that, it's, you know, there are run with roles that happen within games and attention that is applied and
00:57:06
Speaker
I'm not doubting Nick Dacos for a second. I think at 108, 109 price point, he probably is still a couple of points value, but that potential compounded by his early buy in around five is just something where at the end of the day, I would rather go and pick somebody who I'm confident can go 109.
00:57:30
Speaker
and not have that buy and still be a keeper. So that is where I lean. I understand that he is far and away the best defender that we've got to pick from. I understand that, yes, okay, potentially we can move him into our mid so that we don't have such a difference between what our first selected emergency is and our defender emergencies, but
00:57:56
Speaker
But I just think you're introducing so many different variables here, whereas on the other end of the spectrum, I sort of go, well, you know, maybe I can pick an Andrew Brayshaw.
00:58:09
Speaker
and he can go 109 times 6 as opposed to, you know, maybe 109 times 5. So that's where I end up landing. I think he's going to be somebody that we target. I think he's somebody that absolutely every single coach with a starting squad this year should be making a plan right now. Okay, how do I get Nick Dacos? I mentioned earlier that
00:58:33
Speaker
look I'm planning on hopefully Jordan Clark being that guy but you look towards the forward line everybody's starting three four you know some even five mid prices up forward is that the way to go there's
00:58:47
Speaker
There's definitely a FOMO aspect about not starting Nick Dacos, which is fine. But I think that maybe we need to move our viewpoints towards, okay, well, I'm not going to start Nick Dacos. I'm going to start this guy instead, who I think can maybe match him. But I need to have a plan in place and it doesn't always go right.
00:59:09
Speaker
But I've got a plan in place to go, OK, sweet, I'm going to get Nick Dacos off that round five by or off that round six by post Port Adelaide, and I'm going to do it by this. And even if that plan doesn't come to fruition this week, the fact that you've got that in place can often set you up a whole lot better than some of the players that
00:59:32
Speaker
that, you know, you're sort of thinking about. So, yeah, that's where I sit with Nick Dacos. All right. I think everything has been said for Nick Dacos, Hami, but are you yes or no starting?
00:59:43
Speaker
No, I've still got Jack Bowes as my D1 at this stage, mate. Jack Bowes, mate, get the pronunciation right, please. But yes, Jack Bowes, what a gun. Andrew wants to know, we'll just get a few more questions and then we'll wrap up. We've been just about gone for an hour here. So Andrew wants to know, is Martin DRM4
01:00:07
Speaker
Crouch M5 and Wines M6, so Nick Martin M4, Matt Crouch M5 and Olly Wines M6. Too much pre-season mid-price madness state-o.
01:00:18
Speaker
No, they're potential value. I'm less convinced with Martin, but let's see what happens. And the only reason I am, he's the right quality player, all that type of stuff. And I think he can do really well in the role. There's just a lot of players. What's happening with Redmond, Ridley,
01:00:40
Speaker
That's quite a few to sort of feed the footy. But I understand that I could be proven well wrong here. So I see the potential upside. The other two, what I see crouch as part of the 22, but it's good value, wines is definitely good value. So it's not crazy. In fact, it's the way we should be playing writer, potential premiums in their lines. I don't think
01:01:08
Speaker
uh outside potentially martin if he does get defender status that they're you know top eight players crouch and and wines but they're good value they're going to help make money as well as give you good points on field now harmi quick one for you mate uh from marco has jack steel shrugged off his niggles and can he be go back to being a 100 plus averaging guy we haven't seen him yet but um what are your thoughts ahead of
01:01:36
Speaker
potential games come up. Of course he can. I mean, who's playing in the midfield for the Saints? Jack Steele and. Batty down. Start the season, he's not. I'm not sure if Crouch is in full training yet. Don't know about that. Where's my list actually? But look, I think that last year he had what? He had the shoulder injury and a knee injury. It seemed like he was always battling something. I think he had post-season surgery as well, didn't he?
01:02:06
Speaker
He was pretty banged up. I mean, I think that he's reportedly fit in the pre-season. I just think that it's all him. Why wouldn't they continue to invest in him? He's not even 30. So yeah, I mean, steel, clear number one meat in my opinion.
01:02:23
Speaker
Crouch will come in there. Windhager will play a defensive role, most likely. Clark is injured. Sinclair may need to come in there because outside of that, it's Dow who's injured, Seb Ross. So, I mean, Filippo a little bit possibly, but I'm sort of struggling to pick what's happening with that same Smithfielder at the moment other than Steele. It's got to be him that they sent everything around. So, we'll see. Marshall to Steele has a pretty nice ring to it. I think it'll happen a fair bit this season.

Speaker
Also, just shout out to former Saint Superstar, Jackie Beitel, getting signed by the Pies. So, my boy, available to select under 300,000. The Premiers know a good pick when they see one there. So, Jackie Beitel back on an AFL list. Look, I think we'll just get to one more here for you, Louis. The fans want to know, is Simon Goodwin holding Jake Bowie back?
Jake Bowie's Role in Melbourne
01:03:26
Speaker
Did you ask yourself of the vendor account, or? This is a legit question, mate.
01:03:31
Speaker
Look, no, I don't think that they're holding Jake Bowie back. I think they have better uses, and we saw that probably on the weekend with a guy that was touted for more mid-time, and Trent Rivers just used the ball beautifully off half-back, I think. Stephen May is underrated in terms of his disposal, and that's the reason why he does take a lot of the kick-ins. Another that didn't play on the weekend was Bray Shaw. I just think that Bowie's a bit of a role-player, he can do.
01:04:00
Speaker
He can use the ball well but he can look down on some of those smalls quite well too. So for me he's just caught in between a couple of different roles and for that reason I just don't see him as being relevant mate.
01:04:14
Speaker
No worries, mate. Well, thanks everyone for listening to a bit of a change-up.
