Should I sacrifice a forward to bolster my defence?

[bmac25]

B: Goddard, Gibbs, Duffield, Broughton, Vlaustin, Docherty (Goodes, Terlich)

M: GAJ, Swan, Cotchin, Ball, Embley, Crouch, O'Meara, Viney (Mayes, Towers)

R: Cox, Leuenberger (Vardy, Witts)

F: Franklin, Pav, Ryder, Martin, Kennedy, Macaffer (Daniher, Menzel)

Remaining Cash $14k

I realise I will need to change out Pav, but there is no obvious premium replacement that isn't injured.  Suggestions welcome.  Also Should I downgrade Pav to a mid like say Knights and beef up my defence with someone like Burgoyne in for Vlaustin?

Pavlich to Rockliff seems like an obvious trade to make.

Defence with Broughton at D4 is good enough, though i'd question the selection of the Duffman.
Ball at M4 is more of a worry tbh - I'd look to get another prem mid in.
Also Ryder doesn't seem to be worth the hefty price tag this year.

Ryder out - Cox forward - Pav out - New ruck out of Jacobs, McEvoy or even Roughead.

I considered Rockliff but apparently Voss has him earmarked for a more forward role which could significantly reduce his numbers.

I have Ryder for the ruck/fwd link and had heard he was in decent form.  The other options were Natanui (first choice but injured) or Roughead (didn't want him and lance in fwd line together).

As for Duffield I thought he was a good point of difference.  More worried about Broughton as I only had him in at the start because of fwd/def link with Bock.

Luke Ball: not up to date on injury status, but if fit could comfortably ave 100+ and make me some cash for a mid season upgrade.

Rubbish. Rockliff will return to the middle this year.
