Defence Talk

[Woppa15]

Is everyone being quiet on Suckling because he's a huge POD or because they seem more upside in others? Mid price, DPP, Will avg more in dogs team than Hawks, especially without vests?  Would love everyones thoughts. Cheers

I won't be picking him ... But I really think he could be a great pick that has had little talk

Thanks mate. I only see upside in him, only 12% own him. Fingers crossed.

He performed well in the NAB but every man and his dog who knows anything about AFL knows not to let Suckling and his left boot off the chain, he will be locked down once the real stuff starts and won't be allowed to just roam free....

RD what are your thoughts on yeo - can he get enough mid time to average 90? Or does he fill too many roles?

I've always said he has the talent, but his role is variant and I just think he'll be a rollercoaster which is why I'm not looking at him

If he was in the guts every week then lock, but he won't be

Locked Shaw and Bartel with Lonergan at D3 then my POD Cutler, Dea, Hartley, Brown, Adams with McDonald Tipp forward.

Anyone watch league teams last night in reference to Heath shaw?

They were saying surely teams aren't going to let shaw dictate the orange tsunami out of defense. I completely agree.

Why wouldn't you just lock down on shaw and put a halt to his creative talents? I have him in my side right now but I really think he will drop in price and think Boyd will
Probably average more given the games are all at Etihad to start the season.

Has everyone jumped off B Smith?

Yeh been my thinking from day 1 also. One of the factors to in the "players struggle to backup elite years" theory

[Woppa15]

What are people's opinion on Harwood vs Weitering @D4? Is Harwood worth the extra $60 odd grand?

Could possibly allow me to run Fyfe, Danger, Ablett, Jelwood, Rocky, Libba, Crouch and Mills while still keeping Goldy as R1. But means Wells @F3 and Bennedy @F4.....

Yeah I was thinking that surely Paul Roos has spent the last couple of weeks formulating a plan to quell Shaw in the opener.

Anyone going with Rance?

I thought about it but he plays a few of the teams early that he scored poorly against last year. I also haven't finalised my structure so don't want a defender locked after tonight to reduce my flexibility.

I reckon he'll go big tonight though which will make it tough to watch :-\

I rate Rance highly and think he is a sure thing for top 10 but being a key defender he's bound for a sub score, resulting in a big price dip where we can snap him up. Last year he scored 44 against WCE, i picked him up the week that 44 was out at 440k and he then went 150 100 and 90 or so. Just my thoughts.
