I don't mind the inclusions of Ainsworth and Hayward gives a bit more variety than Curnow/Mckay or bust!

Having said that I'm predicting a botton 4 finish

$1.99 for under 8.5 wins. Money in the bank or good multi builder.

Geez, setting a high bar there

Richmond and Essendon will be 2 of the bottom 4 so if you finish below either you need to pack it in

Two spots now available and two train ons, Hollands and White, you’d think he’d be signed.

Josh Barnes on The Advertiser :

HF - Hayward Moir Fogarty
FF - Motlop McKay Ainsworth

Nic Negrepontis Nine.com :

HF: Z. Williams, W. Hayward, B. Ainsworth
FF: J. Motlop, H. McKay, A. Moir

Neither looks particularly menacing.

Moir or Hayward as a KPF is pretty bleak
