#4 Matt Suckling - Hawthorn Hawks



Name: Matt Suckling
Age: 25 years, 5 months
Team: Hawthorn
Position: Defender
Bye: Round 9





Fanplanner Price: $312,200

Predicted average: 80-85ppg

Verdict: LOCK LOCK LOCK! If named round one you pretty much have to have him in your team. He's averaged 90 before and represents excellent value. I'd expect him to be the most picked defender.

Good work specky barring any injury setback will be one of the most picked backs this year

[Jroo]

Lock! Hopefully he gets back to his best quickly, as I see him as a keeper.

[GoLions]

Is there anyone on FF not picking him?

[Ricochet]

Yeh you've gotta have him. Can produce premo numbers and is super cheap

[eaglesman]

honestly I am considering not picking him ... coming back from a nasty knee .. a player who can be tagged out the game .. could easily be managed a lot through the season ... cheap as chips and a good player and i would say he is a definite risk for mine


but what makes him a no risk is that everyone has him

i still feel that someone who has the guts not to pick him could leap ahead in scoring when it comes to defenders

[ubeaut]

I don't really WANT to pick him but who else is there? Bugger all rookies; Waters WAY too risky ... how else do u save money in the backline?

After  2012 I swore never again.  Total lack of consistancy and seems to get tagged out of games very easily.  Needs wide open spaces to excel which he'll probably get against the bottom teams.  I know his price is attractive but if I'm only going to get one good game out of three, I'll pass.

[Vinny]

Yes there's the tag risk but if Birchall continues to get that tag and Suckers kills it, you will behind.
