5 premium defence?

[sammy123]

anyone trying this stratergy? Just getting some ideas

[Deadly6]

No Sammy, not trying it. With your history of elite ranking, are you?

[Deadly6]

I guess to add to that, there seems to be too much uncertainty around who will be the premium defenders and will the gap be that big between the top 10?

[RaisyDaisy]

At this stage I am

It's all going to come down to what rookies and cheap options come available rd1 though. At the moment I, like most are assuming that there are not going to be any rookie defenders lining up rd1, possibly 1 or 2 if we are lucky but we would need them on the bench anyway

If that is the case then I will be loading up with 5 solid defenders. I will keep an eye on some of the mid price options during the NAB to see what their roles are and if they are going to be SC friendly too, so again things could change

Going with a light forward line allows me to stack my defence, mids and rucks, but again there's a lot of if's and maybe's at this stage

I think we will be able to answer this question with certainty in 2 weeks time

[sammy123]

Yeah im looking at having

Simpson,shaw,dog,hurn,newnes

At this stage but would have to take a hit somewhere

[LordSneeze]

At this stage i have 6, but that is more for the structure incase the worst case scenario happens.

I have options for a 4 & 5 man premium defence.

[meow meow]

Going with 6 unless Billy lives up to his potential.

[Keeper27]

Going 3 premo + Lumumba & Yeo

[kilbluff1985]

Smith, Hibberd, Newnes, Lamumba, Ibbo, WhiteX, N Brown, Goddard

[Gigantor]

Smith, Hibberd, Newnes, Lamumba, Ibbo, WhiteX, N Brown, Goddard

there is something written somewhere quoting Richardson saying Goddard definitely won't play in the early rounds
