NOW, Daniel Wells certainly isn’t a rookie. The good news for SuperCoaches is he’s priced like one and still scoring like the star he is. Who else is on the radar?

NOW, Daniel Wells certainly isn’t a rookie.
The good news for SuperCoaches is he’s priced like one and still scoring like the star he is.
If you’re looking for scoring power and superior cash generation, there’s three names you need to know.
Wells is one of them after scores of 99 and 121, the Kangaroos veteran has a breakeven of -78 and a projected price rise of $67,000.
He’s capable of being a season-long keeper.
The other names are Sam Kerridge and Ben Kennedy.
Kerridge — the Crow-turned-Blue — has produced scores of 86 and 102, has a breakeven of -112 and is set for a $71,000 price rise.
Kennedy — the Magpie-turned-Demon — has managed scores of 115 and 105 BE, his breakeven is -110, which should see his price rise by about $78,000.
All three of these players are dual position midfield-forwards ... so what about just the midfield-only cash cows?
Gold Coast mature-age rookie Ryan Davis is a must-have at just $102,400.
The Sun hasn’t scored heavily — 63 and 57 — but should still go up by more than $50,000 this week and is a nice little nest egg to sit on your bench and mature.
Finally, the high draft picks.
Callum Mills ($211,800), Clayton Oliver ($207,300) and Darcy Parish ($202,800).
All three have impressed in the opening two rounds and if you’ve got some cash in the bank are still viable cash cow options with each having negative break-evens.
Parish is the cheaper of the trio and is expected to see a $58,000 price rise while Mills and Oliver are projected to rise by about $30,000.
