Top 5/10 Defenders, 2018 thread.

[Sabretooth Tigers]

For 20k more i would rather Simmo or wait a week or 2 and get Hurley for maybe 30-35k more than Andrews

+1

:)

Thanks Ringo, SF and Mj.  Already have Hurley and have a real set against Simmo. Will have Laird,  Hurley,  Webster, (these I have already), Sicily and Yeo so just looking for something a little out of the ordinary for D6. Will be filling F6 then D6 last and the way injuries and form slumps are occurring this season I won't be filling those until near final time. Currently playing 7 rookies + Goldy so have no room for error with just 17 trades and $226,800. Didn't think I could do worse than last season until now. Cheers all.

At 391k do we think Touhy would be good enough for D6?

I know he was raised as a discussion point recently, but I need to find a value pick because with all the mayhem I've endured this year I don't think I can get every 500k+ player that I'd want

I'm just looking at him as a contingency plan for now, but might need to execute

D6 should be alright right?

Has to be under 400k

Doedee's got the same ave, just keep him and save the trade.  ;)

Could do worse than Touhy for D6...
Could do better though. He's cheap for a reason and it's not injury.
Has the round 14 bye.

R14 bye doesn't bother me as for some reason I don't have a lot of them like most do

Don't have Doedee anymore hence looking at Touhy, but if Josh Kelly returns this week I won't need to worry about this

Savage at $430k averaging 90?

Good pick up if you dont have him

[dmac07]

Is Howe going to keep it up? At 520k now but have the cssh to bring him in.

Would leave def - Laird, Yeo, Sicily, Lloyd, Howe, Murray  (Mirra, Murphy). With Hurley to finish the defense in a few weeks.

Webster seems to be stealing alot of his points off halfback now. That would be incredibly frustrating to watch as an owner I would think.

Only averaging 80 over last 5 matches though

Doing exactly what a lot of us expected him to do

Yeah wouldn't be touching Savage. Webster's the main man down back now.
Also crap bye, crap team.

Being in a crap team is a benefit.

Savage's problem is he has huge chunks in games where he wont touch the ball.

Was on 52 half time last week and im sure in the 3rd qtr he touched it once

Has a high ceiling, wouldn't surprise to see a purple patch like Lloyd.

Not sure about that. Has a career-high score of 165 back when he was playing on the wing for the Hawks in a drubbing of the Suns in 2011 (outlier), other than that he has a further two games above 130 (both 136s) in his 132-game career, and only four games above 120 since the start of 2012.

I guess Lloyd had similar numbers until his 173 on the weekend.

[Huttabito]

If Savage kicked to himself from behinds more often, he could hit 120 on a week by week basis. Pretty sure he took most of the 19 behind kicks ins against GWS but only played on once. Watching him every week just boot it long from the square is frustrating to watch.

I've been far from convinced but can't complain with the 90 average I've had so far although 95+ is what I was aiming for.
