Greg Broughton - Freo Dockers
Position: BACK
Price: $374,000 (Fanplanner)
2011 Games: 21
2012 Games: 15
2011 Average: 84.1
2012 Average: 78.9
2012 Tons: 2 + a score of 99
Summary: Before I start, could we just keep the comments clean :P Despite being absolutely terrible this year he averaged a respectable 79 after three years of greatness with 84, 87 and 81 points per game coming in from the mature aged recruit. When played in the right position and when allowed the time and space, Gregory is a DT slut. Under Lyon's new game plan however the Duffman is seemingly favoured.
Verdict: ... Waiting. I wanna lock him in simply because he will be a massive POD as a mjority of people have been crucified by him. Personally, I haven't which is why I'm so eager! I think that Duffield taking up the slutty half back role and potentially Goddard to join him next season will hamper his scoring too much. No thanks!
Ele's prediction: Average of 75 if Goddard heads West or 87 if all things remain as is.
Steering clear of Broughton this year unless he somehow finds consistency.
hmmm I've never been burnt by Broughts....might take the punt ;)
haha nah...if there werent so many good premo defenders this year then I would possibly consider, otherwise no thanks.
Hell no not in a million years
Lyon moves him around too much he is also used as a tagger causing his DT scores to suffer
New I would forget to mention something! The tagging role...
Thanks LF :)
No thanks. Didn't have him this year thankfully but I don't expect things to improve much,
its a hard one because the first half of the year Lyon was still experimenting and trying the implement his game plan. Even guys like pavlich and barlow were below par DT wise. Then everything clicked. Broughts was played in positions that benefit the team not our DT scores. And he was playing with injuries.
I'm going to wait and see on this one. i think freo's "lock down defenders" are pretty much set atm so he might go back to his DT relevant ways. im not overly keen on him but im just saying don't count him out
...Wouldn't be surprised if he comes back and destroys it.
Will probably turn out to be one of the steals of the season at his price..... :P
Still a NO from me. ::)
Call me crazy, but I'm tempted :P
Slightly tempted also
slightly tempted.
but it's more probable I'll castrate myself before I grab him again.
Were you all just waiting for me to rock up ? :)
This won't be the last we hear of GB this off-season, trust me ;)

Haha, mate it's not like I have been trolling this whole time. First picked (mainly because Defenders are picked first lol)
Unfortunately after losing a DP-bet to tabs I will have to change my Gregory one for a month :(
None-the-less he is still an absolute lock in for me and I look forward to the banter during the PS and no doubt over the summer I will make up a man-love thread for him talking him up ;)
ele i respect you so i will see this nicely. If you take Broughton i promise you he will destroy you, he is one the may entice pre-season but will f**k you the hell up steer clear! HE IS PERMANENTLY BLACK LISTED FOR ME!

Just the fact that I love him and he is gonna be an awesome pick in 2013 ;)
I want to see what Rossy is doing with him before I jump on. If he looks like returning to that mid / def role he used to score well in then Ill jump back on... Won't be start of the year though.

Depends where. If the team ha other good shut-down defenders/taggers etc he might be enticing but idk will just have to wait and see.

Hey Greg Broughton....
Weeee-ee, are never ever ever ever, getting back together!
(Unless you move to Port as suggested above, in which case, You belong with meee!)
Even if he has a good NAB and is at Port I will stay well away. Possibly an upgrade target if he finds some consistency.
Never had him before, but even if he did move, I wouldn't start him.
Too many better options, and is much safer to look at him as an upgrade target.
Now on The radar at a new club ?

Yes! I knew someone would quote that post! :D
With Broughton, his role is constantly changing, so if he's playing lockdown during NAB, pick him, if he's through the midfield and named on the ball, then don't get him since he'll change roles. :P
He's such a confusing player, hopefully Gold Coast (assuming he goes) can give him a role for him to play. :)
I might take the bait again.
If he moves then he is no longer fantasy relevant

What ???
I reckon he is defs relevent if picked up by the suns.
Backline of
Murphy warnock tape
Harbrow/mckenzie bock broughton
Would see him slut it up i reckon. He wont be mucked around like he was at freo i reckon. He will be locked into a running half back where he plays his best footy. With his inclusion it'll free harbrow or mckenzie to play higher up the ground. If mckenzie is listed as a back, this might make me a bit more tempted to take a punt 8)

Yeah that's my worry. Who does GC usually use on the likes of Stevie J, Milne, Rioli and Betts?
Pick 60 and broughton to the suns for pick 37
Does this hinder harbrows chances of a gig now? These two may take points of each other
Doesn't look like he'll be playing a bullshower forward role at GC... I reckon I might take the punt on him again :P

Am I stupid enough to start with him again. After trading him out round 3 than he averages 92 out of my team than I get him back and he goes 55 and injured this year I said never again. If they are doing the 2 trades a week use it out lose it I might sneak him in

There is still no way I'll be starting with him!! Might remotely think about him as an upgrade target if he's going alright.
Going to be a Defender/Forward which I'll make him even more tempting ::)

Ohh yeah, forgot about that! Especially with Bocky and Staker likely to have D/F!
Definitely considering now, I will watch with interest over the NAB cup but probably won't start him.
Broughton's move has made Duffman even more of a lock! Check this out:
Paul Duffield
Average between rounds 1-16 = 79.1
*Broughton out for the season rounds 17+
Average between 17-23 = 101.8
With Broughton at the GCS, Duffield could be in for a 90+ average....lock!

Reasonable price as well, will definitely look at him but it could be hard to fit him in with Goddard, Grimes and Gibbs locked for me...
All aboard the Gregory Train! ;D
QuoteBroughton has made a name for himself in defence and it’s a role he likely to continue playing for the Gold Coast SUNS after an initial chat with coach Guy McKenna, something Broughton is quite comfortable with.
“For most of my career I have played in defence, so my main preferred position is in the back line,†he said.
I had a quick chat to Bluey after everything was done, and he eluded my role will primarily be down back with some stints in the midfield if required.

Locked
I think he's shown that played in the right position, he can score quite freely. Add to that that he may be back/forward, would definately make him worth a look. ( even though iv'e been burnt a few times :-\ )
go away greg, don't tempt me
Will be doing more than having a look..
I am a little concerned at how much i think i need Greg!
He is currently in my team for the first time ever...his DPP was the final straw, very handy with Bock!
i think he will be fantastic at Dreamteamer at GC because he is a great tackler, he is also good at waxing when the balls in defence too
I wouldn't be saying that he is a DPP. Fanplanner have him listed as a back only at this stage...
He may get it, but I wouldn't be counting on it.

Oh really? Where do you find this out? ???
They posted it on Twitter
Greg Broughton. Would he be a chance for DPP?" Good question. Personally I think defender only. @FanantasyFreako @Lumpy0305 ?
@RLGriffin85 @jggeddes He will be a Def/Fwd. Will probably play majority defence I reckon, but all we can go by is what we saw in 2012.
https://twitter.com/Lumpy0305
Hmm if he is DPP then everyone will get on the Gregory Train once again...
seriously considering him. Could definitely get a key role in defence and run through the midfield too. Could and should lift his average to 85 if not 90+

for me too. having DPP means if I can't fit him in my backs he is certain to be in my fwds i think.
The quietly spoken defender said he wanted a new challenge and intended on cementing his spot across half-back.
"That's the plan. I've been training in that spot over the pre-season and plan to do so going forward.
"Bluey has said I'm the only one that can lose that spot. It's an exciting young group and I'm looking forward to starting in the next month

Cannot tell if this is a good thing.... I think the Def/Mid role is Stanley's forte. My gut is saying don't pick Broughton, but then my head is telling me has the potential to go bang
Hmmm think I'll wait and see....
Rather take the risk on Hartlett who I can confidently stay will score well if hes fit.
Goddard, Gibbs & Hanley (easy draw) all locked

if I dare say it, I like the look of Higgins at 396k. Currently succeeding in his first full pre-season

hmmm Cloke... not really keen on KPP, besides Buddy (as an upgrade target)

Cannot tell if this is a good thing.... I think the Def/Mid role is Stanley's forte. My gut is saying don't pick Broughton, but then my head is telling me has the potential to go bang
I can't remember where I saw it but I read yesterday that GC want to play Stanley in a more permanent midfield/half forward role this year. What, if any, effect that will play on Brougton's scoring we'll have to see.

I'm now really keen on Stanley, could/should avg 95+ and shower all people will have him to start with ;D

The quietly spoken defender said he wanted a new challenge and intended on cementing his spot across half-back.
"That's the plan. I've been training in that spot over the pre-season and plan to do so going forward.
"Bluey has said I'm the only one that can lose that spot. It's an exciting young group and I'm looking forward to starting in the next month

Well if he plays a half-back role then its a good thing .. this was about Broughton not Stanley .. Broughton can average big if he plays a dreamteam friendly role and this is good news for me personally as i think he's undervalued and also has DPP.
looks like his point-scoring won't increase thaaaaaat much, there are so many good rookie-priced players in the backline so I've just gone and loaded up on them in a 3-3 (2) structure
I had the Broughts but I've let him go !
