Position 2025 Defenders

 

[Scythe]

Might still go with Rivers after a 14 disposal trial match. **** it.

It'll be fun at least.

Don't. The role just isn't there, and he doesn't take kick-ins when down back.

What’s everyone’s thoughts on Nic Martin as a POD?

You will not regret starting him.

 

[Veer Right]

One out of Short, Perryman and Roberts, I can't split them

Roberts in ability and it's not close.

 

[Veer Right]

The Short hate is coming from ex-owners who still have scars. Yes he can be a butcher at times and yes he is playing in a poor side, but the biggest thing for me is Rioli going. Rioli averaged 23.3 touches, 4 marks and 1.5 kick-ins last year, they need to be distributed. If Short adds an extra 2-3 touches and 1-2 marks he'll be back in the 90s, which is fine for D6 in the medium-term. Re-assess during the main byes.

He injured his calf last year and missed a few weeks (one week was a bye), who knows if that had a lasting impact. A sore calf when your one job is to run and kick off half back isn't ideal.

He's worth a punt at $442k for me, worst case you get an 85 average (which is what he averaged last year if you remove the game he did his calf in the first quarter and was subbed off).

Any attention and he will be found out. I don't know how the coach can condone such unaccountable play but then again he probably gets the ass sometime this year.

Until you do haha

Excuse my ignorance but why is McGovern only on 2% of teams? Ball is going to basically live in their D50..

Roberts by the length of the Flemington straight.

Elite ball user and loves the hard contested footy.

Gun player, but hff/wing is a hard role to score well in SC.

Short by name short by Chol.

He hasn't played over 20 games since 2019. He played 19 games last year and he's about to be 33 years old, do you think he's going to play 22 or 23 this year? I doubt it. Durability > points, especially on a line with such poor looking rookies.

But need cash else where.

Woof.

 

[rf04]

Any North watchers have an opinion on Logue as a cheap D5? Injury prone yes; but if he can stay on the park may get more intercepting opportunities in a better functioning/improving defensive system? Also can see him benefiting from having Caleb Daniel near him (in a wannabe Luke Ryan chip-chip role).

 

[Agent_99]

How come no love for Tom Stewart?

What carnage are you talking about?

 

[iDon]

What carnage are you talking about?

Byes being removed for some teams, structures will change for some. about 6 more people become more relevant I would have thought ?

 

[toxic]

Was bye related

He and Holmes are now going to grow in ownership

Yeah cool, I thought for a minute Nasiah was injured, I realise now you're just gonna pick a guy who no longer has the early bye intead.

All good
