So all the talk is about Pendles who may play back flank and pick up DEF status. Anyone else on the radar atm?

Horne(forward), Daicos(defence), Rayner(midfield), Zorko(defence) and Marshall(forward) of the top of my head.
 
Really the only ones that matter are the ones that gain FWD status.
Pendles as a DEF is probably a fine option, but we already have heaps to chose from back there.

Early rookies that gain DEF status might be the only other ones that come into play.
 
Rucks getting FWD DPP will be very tasty.

Marshall is the big one
Gawn as well if Jacko gets a heap of CBA's
Scotty Lycett if Hayes plays



In terms of the mids, maybe Jelly and Baz Smith getting FWD DPP

Omac if Darcy Fort plays until Hipwood is back.

Fyfe and Danger maybe? Gawn more likely to get defense? That would shake things up a bit.
 
What’s the minimum hurdle to become a DPP again?
35% time spent forward, back or mid.

Basing this from zero knowledge whatsoever.
 
What happens to players that already have DPP but then start playing a different role again?

Take Weller for example. He's currently FWD/MID but looks like he will be playing mostly DEF. Surely he can't have FWD/MID/DEF DPP but then at the same time, how can you remove DPP from a player when coaches will already have that player in certain positions?

Can only add a second position, if a player that already has DPP changes roles, bad luck, they stick with the initial DPP.
Players cannot lose DPP during a season.
 
I’m not sold. He was playing in the dominant team too. Had some good moments
Going to be an impact player which is good for supercoach
He loves a tackle
Will kick goals
Can take a hanger
Will get cbas
Spike games will happen which will help the cash gen and has the last bye which is another tick

Will be lots of fun to own this year and the dpp in round 6 will 100% happen. Think he’s an easy pick

Textbook BF posting here 🤣

0% knowledge 100% confidence. You even quoted a stat. Strong.

Locked Fyfe into my MIDs. Ready to swing forward week 6
It may even be starting positions.

Again, zero knowledge ;)
Reports of Bont maybe playing more up forward this year make it seem possible

(I have no links) but I’ve heard/read it somewhere haha
I would love to have been able to start Danger, Fyfe and Bont in the FWD line - instead I’m settling for a bunch of blokes that have been periodically injured in the last year or two.

This years forward lines could end up being great value or a complete and utter dumpster fire.

I’m so excited…
 
Maybe a little bit left field but a Ruckman like Omac could possibly get DPP if the Lions play 2 ruckmen to cover Hipwood he should go 100+
 
Guess we can add Lachie Neale to this list since he's having a role change to fwd line.
