I knew he was worth considering. .. okay moment passed

What are people's thoughts on Michael Johnson? I want atleast one defender who is just consistently in the 85-95 range and I reckon he's a good bet for that.

Besides the ultra premiums I don't like much else in defence.

You'll be paying for every point though. Better off with suckling who will be somewhere around the same mark 80-85 but he's much cheaper. He's never hit 90 so I'm not sure where you are getting 95 from.

Hibberd is a very good POD. I'm currently tossing up between him and Thompson.

I actually like the looks of Thompson, if not for his round 8 bye which kinda disrupts my team structure.

Johnson certainly won't be popular, but he did average 102 after his bye last year and hit 90 most weeks. I just see him posting numbers similar to Sam Fisher whilst Ross was at St Kilda.

Sutcliffe??

Played as the sub most of the year until the last two rounds and finals where he scored 80+ in most of those games. Ibbotson hasn't started pre-season yet, could be a real option for a half-back flank. Only 256k

JS an obvious issue at that price.

played 16 games last season, seems his JS is okay, just needs to expand his role and score more bloody points

 

[Jiska]

Not really, played 16 games but he started as sub in most of them. Played the last 5-6 games in full, can see him breaking in to the team. Again, a risk, but one I'm happy to take at that price.

I'm surprised that he's named as a Def this year. Could have sworn he played mostly through the mids when subbed on last year..

anyway, he was good enough to be in Freo's starting 21 for the finals + GF so his JS should be fairly solid you would think.

Plays off the half-back flank so surprised that he's not DEF/MID actually. He started on the ground in the GF so that's enough for me.

It's just a question of whether he'll moo more than McDonald or Kokokaksjdhakjsdh

why not have all 3 and spend the extra cash elsewhere?

 

[KardiniaPark]

Cos then Gingy would be too far ahead with his 600-650 points down back

You better believe it!

Then he'd wake up,and realise it was just ANOTHER wet dream

Backs at the moment are: Hanley, Simpson, Hurn, Suckling, Sutcliffe Koloslkjdflksd, Cutler, Fuller

Note no McDonald - who would I cut from that line to fit him in (excluding Cutler and Fuller who are no brainers at that price)?? I could put him in the MID if he proves a super-rookie and open up DPP??

Suckling, wont be a keeper long term and needs to average 95 compared to McDonalds 75 to make 200K

If this year pans out anything like last year, I'd be more than happy to keep him at D6*,

Thoughts on Rhyce Shaw - 300k??

True, but Suckling is only an extra 60k that Sutcliffe. So then you start getting in to who will average what and make more money than the other

 

[Krujan]

Thoughts on Rhyce Shaw - 300k??

Apart from 2009 & 10 (his peak middle years) when he averaged 83 & 95 he's averaged a solid 70-77 in every other year. Coming back from a serious knee injury @ 32 years old, I'd pass as I can't see him averaging much better than 70 TBH which won't make you any coin.

 

[toxic]

Thoughts on Rhyce Shaw - 300k??

There are better Shaws to be sure

 

[ubeaut]

On McVeigh - didn't he score better last year cos he was off half-back? Before that he was in the mids/fwds scoring 90 odd. If R.Shaw comes back to join Eski off half back I think McVeigh might drop off. He would surely spend time forward as Bolton did, with Hanners,Kennedy,Parker,Mitchell,Jack,Jetta,O'Keefe going through the middle. Just not sure if there are enough points for him if he doesn't have the same role as last season?
