Season proper is nearing and although most people seem to have made their decision on whether to Gary or not to Gary, the question still looms as to whether people should jump on Brendon Goddard. There is no doubt the man is a star and will score well every week, but there are doubts over whether he is worth spending 613k and some doubts over durability. It has been seven years since the man debuted and coming into his eight season he has never player 22 games, there always seems to be a little niggle. That’s not a major worry though. Last year GOD averaged 115.52 Supercoach points, he scored more than 120 points six times, more than 150 twice and brought up the ton 3 times. With that it would seem if God makes 100 he makes it easily. In round 1 Brendon plays Sydney, over his career he averages 99.6 aginst the Swans although last year he scored 128 and 131 in his two matches against them. In round 2 he plays North, who he averages 96.6 against over his career with his 2 scores against them last year being 125 and 74. Then in round 3 he plays Collingwood who he averages 96.5 against over his career, with his only match against them last year being in round 7 in which he scored 108. The come the price changes. Against those 3 teams over his career Goddard averages 97.56, if that is the score he averages over the first 3 rounds with his average from last year being 115 his price would drop to 578k with a breakeven of 158, if for the first 3 rounds he maintains his average his price will still fall about 10k. After all that my view is that yes, Goddard will fall in price. But also yes, he is very much worth having in your team for the consistent scores.
