Guns/Rooks doesn't work on defence. Rooks don't get as many games and if you're dropping 500k on a plaer it's better spent on a midfielder that can go bang, rather than a player like Simpson that farts a squeaky one at best.

Mid pricer strategy in the backs all the way.
I'm going with 3 premiums 2 mid pricers and 3 rookies
You think that could work well?
Defenders is where shower hits the fan each year. Premos don't stay premo, rooks just never seem to string games. And even solid players can't be banked because when coaches have mood swings its in the backs where you get flowered by it.

Don't go in structure first, player second with the backs IMO. Identify roles and back your research. Defence is the only position where research gives you and edge. Midfield is just a cheaters paradise and forwards have been turned in to Mids Lite.
Yeah you're spot on!
Defence is where the better teams will be split!

What do you guys think of Hodge next season?

I'm really tempted to throw him in as my third defender. Will most likely miss a game or two, but his scores last year were really good for a defender. His DPP might be handy too as there aren't many premiums with the DEF/MID link.

Will miss too many games, or be subbed off when we're 20 goals up at 3qt

BOG in a GF gets your foot in the door.

Birchall, Simpson and Hibberd for me. The most reliable options.

Smith if I pick a 4th premium defender, but I would rather avoid and get a couple of rookies/mid pricers.
