Luke Hodge for me, he's almost a certain top 6 and has a decade of runs on the board. He's also a big game player who won't be tagged out of the game. Last year he notched up 11 tons with most coming against quality opposition. He's still only 29, plenty of good football left in the old warhorse.

will get rested though

i think Hanley the best option

Vinny

Hurn or Enright for me, Hurn > Enright due to value.

Hodge played 20 games last year, what makes you think he'll be rested?

I'd go Enright, he is super consistent and judging by NAB Challenge games he looks like he is going to drift into the midfield alot more this year so should rack up even more possessions.

Probably because he hasn't played 22 games in a season since 2007

and he is not getting any younger

Didn't Hodge miss the first through suspension in 2013? He then went on to play 23 out of 24 games (including finals). At 29 it seems premature to right him off, I haven't heard anything from the Hawks to suggest he'll be rested or that he's injured.

If I did not have Mitchell , Suckling and langford in my backs Hodge would be in there just could not figure a way to do it , there are not to many players as hard at it as him , but did get him in DT

Hurn is value and starts with a soft draw.

Hodge is in the same team as Mitchellock and Sucklock - and Lockford now!

Hanley starts vs Hawks and Cats - pretty tough.

Thompson has a pretty tough run after first 2 rounds so he will be for post bye team completion.

Enright is a beauty but so consistent he won't get a lot more expensive so you can wait.

Hurn Boris Hanley Thompson Hodge in fantasy

Hodge Boris Thompson Hanley Hurn in true life!

Ditto Hanley, that's why I'm steering clear.
