Speaking of Captains and doing funny things. I have a really strong feeling that Bob Muprh will have a huge year as the Bullies captain. I haven't picked him yet, however he is on my radar.
Is that in your humble opinion too?

I'd be shocked if he wasn't the #1 averaging defender this season. Games missed is always an issue with him, though.

We are going to be alot more attacking this year, like Port, just go go go. And Murph is the bloke we will want to have the ball. Unlike Enright and co, no way Bob will get rested either. I reckon he should be around the 90 mark, which is good for a defender this year.

Scott is a dog, he shafted Chapman and I'm sure he'll have no issue shafting Enright when he has to. He'll probably shaft James Kelly out of the team, too.
Again, you're referencing last season, last season is dead, forget about it!
Oh god no.... I am not going Swan this year. Not at all. If I do get it wrong, I will be more than happy to spend the extra 100k and pick him up later, however it is not worth the risk early with so many amazing options up forward.
Because he is priced at 91ppg and when fully fit, is at least a 95 ppg player. Was hampered somewhat in the second half of last season which slowed down his scoring, consistently scores at least in the 80s and usually in the 90s most weeks with the ability to score multiple 100+ games consecutively meaning unless he cops an injury or plays an out of the ordinary shocker, will remain fairly consistently priced (ie: not suffering a massive price drop due to a crap score), unlike a player like Simpson or B.Smith who can put in shockers (30 and 40 point games) meaning they can drop in price markedly throughout the season.
I would not be picking Hibberd even if this ASADA crap wasn't occurring. I do not rate him at all. He is at best a 90ppg player and there is better options with better hamstrings. His will go twang yet again at some point this year and he will miss a couple at least.
How is he at best a 90 ppg player when he has averaged 95.9 and 91.4 in the past two seasons respectively? 11 out of his 18 games last season were 90+ games. He played a full season in 2013, 13 out of 22 games were 90+ with the majority of the remaining 9 80+ games. I don't think you will find that consistency in scoring from any of the other defenders available this season.
So really what you just said is he has had one year at 95, which was ahead of his previous 2 seasons at 75, then he dropped back down again to low 90? There are far better options in the backs than him. He will never give you a massive score ever. He is just your average footballer who gets a little bit of the ball, but will never be a star.
