DEF: Buntine vs Darley vs Shaw

[Hydra]

Any ideas? :)

[My Chumps]

I'm personally steering away from all three for now.

Who would you choose in their place, assuming one has McDonald and KK?

Buntine is an interesting one, I quite like him and rate him, but they are three very risky picks. What's your def look like atm?

I've currently got McVeigh, Mitchell, Simpson, Suckling, Buntine, KK, McDonald, Fuller.

Okay cheers. I don't mind Buntine as a POD there, and the structure is good, you already have KK and McDonald - good picks. I was going to say if not, could downgrade to one of them and use the money else where. I'd stick with what you've got at this point mate. That's the perfect NAB Challenge question.

Thanks for your feedback Shorty!

Shaw won't be fit for Rd 1. He's coming off a LARS. Laidler was the insurance for Sydney.

Don't think Buntine is a good selection this year as he still hasn't cemented his spot in the best team for the Giants, and with Shaw arriving it will make it even harder for him to lock down a spot in the back 6. Last year he played 14 NEAFL games and only averaged 74DT. The guy has plenty of talent and should be a star in the future, but I'm going to say he will break out in 2015, not this year.
