Makes up for your forward line :P

[BB67th]

Jared Brennan now named as DEF only.

B.Waters - P.Duffield - D.Stanley - M.Johnson

...with Brent Reilly and Jared Brennan on the bench.

That's 5 defenders in the top 15 for averages, with 3 of them being top 5. Not a bad backline at all. 8)

:o That is a pretty good defence. Is someone thinking of challenging the Folders for the premiership next year? Not sure on that forward line though, quite old.

[JBs-Hawks]

Shouldn't have backed out of our original trade ;)

I was the premiership favourite before DPP changes... Fyfe becoming MID only, and Stanley DEF only... my forward line was especially good.

But now, I would have to say that you're the favourite. My rucks and backline is better, even though you have Swanny, I would say that we have an even midfield... but your forward line kills mine. :(

Yes I was saved with DPP not changing, with Zorko and Lewis keeping theirs. I spent quite a bit of time sweating over whether or not they would keep it. And Swanny will be a great captain, much better than Selwood ;)

[JBs-Hawks]

Lewis was always keeping it. Played a lot forward this year.

[JBs-Hawks]

How is that possible I don't think he played defence once this year

[tbagrocks]

Quite simple gents! It is looking like VS don't know what the flower they're doing

Just checked on the team picker, Pup is fwd only.
