Another Defender Thread

[Asparagus]

What about Robert Murphy?
Any reason he couldn't maintain his good average from here on??

I like that choice and am going to hold off getting Rocky for a in order to bring Bob Murphy in this week and try to solidify my ailing back line. Role is secure, they play through him out of the back a lot, should score consistently.

Yep that's it for me.

Vandenberg>Bob Murphy via Saad  8)

SEEDSMAN!!!!!

Seirously considering. If he can stay fit can keep up a very good average playing on the wing.

Is Jaensch out likely to chance Henderson's role?

Walsh has flagged MacKay as a likely candidate to go back and fill that role

It may free him up a bit. I'm certainly keeping a close eye on him.

I didnt like the look of many defenders this year and went for rookies and midpricers likely to increase in price.
I went for taylor, hendo, ibbo and got sucked in on lumumba and newnes.
Has worked okay and I wont be upgrading my defenders until I see a huge bargain or until my other lines are fully premoed up.

Having said that, wouldve loved to get on mcdonald early this year.

My mids and fwds will be done next week then I'll be getting brodie smith, considering Hibberd and waiting for houli et al to play a stinker or two, which we know is likely.

A big SC rule for me is never pay anything near premo for a defender unless its your starting team.

Top 6 defenders: hodge, gibson, shaw, taylor, mcdonald, houli. Plenty near that mark though.

trading the spud lumumba for rance this week. cant afford mcdonald

Priced very similiar, but I just am wondering, do we all think that Tosh will play all year? Wanting to keep one at D8 all year just incase and know full well that Brown will play every week if fit, but am unsure about Tosh.. If we all think he will play I'll get rid of Brown because he's averaging 20ppg less and is a Rd 12 bye player.

It is a very big choice, so am wondering if anyone or in particular a Richmond supporter would like to weigh in? Cheers lads.

[MontyJnr]

There is no competition for spots at Richmond. Very poor depth. McIntosh will play all year and I would think Lambert will come straight back into the side when he's ready also.

[RaisyDaisy]

Yeah wato I am trading Brown and keeping Tosh too. He should be reliable coverage

Birchall or Rance this week? Bringing one in for Salem. Both the same price.

im deciding on the exact same thing this week, going with rance atm. bit concerned as hes got a much tougher draw then he has had thus far.

would love to hear your thoughts daisy. I did read somewhere you prefer rance over birchall and bob

Yeah, but extremely close. You could honestly flip a coin on all 3 for their preference order

It's that close, just pick the player you like the most  :-\
