GWS GIANTS

For those that were bullish on Tim Taranto (2019 Ave: 112.5) prior to the start of the 2019 H&A season, you weren’t disappointed at all as he set a new career season high. Taranto scored 100pts or more in 68.2% of games, he scored 120pts or more in 31.8% of games.

Josh Kelly (2019 Ave: 116.1) was limited to just 14 games in the H&A season, despite his injury riddled year he scored 100pts or more in an elite 85.7% of games & 120pts or more in 50.0% of games. Kelly was limited by off-season injuries prior to 2019 season, he could quite easily increase his average in 2020 especially with a full pre-season.

All eyes will be on the off-season for Stephen Coniglio (2019 Ave: 103.7) after he injured his knee in Round 17 of the 2019 H&A season, it will be difficult to dismiss him if he completes a full pre-season prior to Round 1 in 2020.
