Bachar Houli

[Bully]

Thought he deserves some recognition for a super start to the season. Scores of 102, 89 & 150 put him pretty close to the top of the defenders chart and he's still reasonably affordable. Will be 480k next week so worth considering if people are looking at moving on Newnes.

had him last year to many scores under 80

The year before he averaged 91, think he will nudge 95 this year.

Wouldn't trade Newnes just yet. Houli hasn't really been an elite sc scorer before so I would wait until later in the year to see if his form continues. His 2 scores of 100+ have come against two pretty average teams aswell.

Elite this year will be anything over 90, he has achieved that twice in the past 4 years. But that aside, this is the best I've seen him play, he's taking plenty of intercept marks and winning plenty of contested ball. Certainly deserves to be on the watchlist.

Newnes stinks, I have to get rid of Yarran now as well, might be for Houli...

[Jroo]

He's been superb so far, I'm definitely considering

This!  Was one of my regrets from last year.

[Footyrulz]

Had him since the start  ;D ;D ;D ;D

[Wanderer]

He beats up on the easy teams

[Ricochet]

Was so close to starting this bloke. Has proven he can score well in the past and should go 90+ again

Love the way Houli goes about it, but he is very prone to some stinkers.

Richmond has a run coming up of some harder teams (Geelong, North, Collingwood, Port, Essendon, Fremantle) so might see how he goes through that stretch and look at him after his bye.

He does have stinkers but there isn't one defender who doesn't throw in the occasional 40. Shaw, Simpson, Birch etc have all let us down at various stages.

Cannot believe I didn't start him over Newnes.

Went with Newnes, because well, everyone else was.

Me too, gutted as I talked him up all preseason, fell for the hype.
