Position 2014 SC Defenders

[toxic]

As the best available defender, who will (more than likely) average most than all other defender. If you don't have Sam Mitchell in your side you are shovelling up hill from the start.

So if you have a choice
Hanley & cotchin/fyfe/libba

Versus

Smitchell & ziebell or any other 500k mid (excluding beams and MMurphy who are semi locks in majority of sides) what option would you and others choose?
Very curious as to opinions

Hanley and Cotchin for mine, just seems to be less risk involved. Especially with Cotchin.

Playing around with my team yet again and wondering which 2 out of these 3 defenders should I go for?

Hanley, Hurn, Grimes

I'm guessing everyone will be saying Hanley and Hurn?

If I had the money for sure.

If I had the money for sure.

Just heard some things about Grimes tonight that he was playing deep in the cats forward line and not the attacking half back role that he usually plays.

Am wondering if that's anything to be concerned about?

 

[SHAKESPEARE]

Would never go Hurn tbh

Never interested me

Only reason I'm thinking of picking him is due to his price and West Coasts easy draw up to the byes.

Am trying to go for value up back and Hurn, Swallow, Grimes, etc all fit this category.

TOG was 58% for Grimes for 68 DT.

 

[LSRU]

I originally had him but the problem I see for picking Grimes is that Dunn, Terlich and even Clisby all seem to be playing a similar role.

All will have there good days and bad days, but out of that group Grimes is the only injury risk, and being the most capable the more likely to get the defensive forward.

Im off him

Yeah just read that, makes things alot more re-assuring.

Thoughts on Lyndon dunne? Coming into supercoach POD relevance by the minute... Finished off the season well last year and roos looks like his telling his boys to get the ball in his hands coming out of defence... And let's face it, Dees will be kicking out of there back half more often then not

Dunn is a shit player and a shit bloke, having met him through a friend who is his cousin. Also that mustache that he sometimes has just means that you can never pick him.

But realistically, he's just not a very good player, and I don't think he'll score well, much better options.

across a possible 8 players it would be effecting, surely you would be taking 5 players who could average more than 105 points per game rather than 4 players who could possibly average 105 points per game or more. After all, it isn't just the top line players it is effecting.

Laidler.

Will he be in best 22?

This is doing my head right in!

No concern at all. Don't have Grimes

Is it wise to have the 4 big ones?

I've only got one. But it's huge.

Any thoughts on Broadbent and Pittard from Power as PODs? Broadbent $438k & Pittard $329k and have looked good in the pre-season.

Nice but seriously should i have mitchell mcviegh bartell and hodge or upgrade elsewhere.

Maybe Mitchell, but I'm more inclined to say none of them. There seem to be a lot of potential value options in defence this season.

 

[eaglesfan99]

Really i have all of them atm who do u suggest instead.

 

[kananooks]

anyone considering kade simpson?

 

[hoddo]

I have Mitchell atm, but he may not stay in my team. IMO the better value players include Hanley, Simpson, Birchall, Hurn, Grimes, Dunn, Suckling, Griffith and maybe Swallow, Enright and Adcock

I have Pittard. I'm not 100% confident with him yet, but will continue having a look at him, research and what not, before round 1.

Hibberd?

 

[hoddo]

Hibberd?

Not one I've liked .. even before he was injured. I like players who finished the previous year well and he fell away really badly.
