2019 Defenders

[enzedder]

Anyone like Luke Ryan?

I do. I’m annoyed he went big again as his last big score was rolling out.
My plan is to get Hurn next week and Ryan whenever which will finish my defence: Lloyd, Whitfield, Laird, Hurn, Ryan, Williams

My current defence is: Whitfield Laird Williams Smith Hore Duursma

I feel like i should probably get Lloyd first and i guess smith could be considered a keeper?

There's only 40k between Lloyd and Ryan and Lloyd currently is and will most likely stay as the #1 defender. If you can get Lloyd do it. As for Smith, he's currently the tenth best defender on total points and averaging 93... good enough to keep on that. Maybe you could upgrade him if trades allow it towards the end of the year or if his scores drop off, but right now I wouldn't worry about it.

ryan, hurn, sicily my preferences  also rich.     have lloyd, whitfield, williams, crisp, b smith at the moment.  so whoever has lowest price and fits my byes when i am ready to trade.   depends on rookies on bench.  if no depth in def rookies may prioritise def prem over mid upgrades

Lloyd delivers the 80 I have been patiently waiting for so for those who don't have him like myself, get the wallet out & be thankful he'll be under 550k in a fortnight. Could even drop to 530k with another sub 100 score next week.

My only concern now is do I leave him until last and bring him in after rd13

I think I'll get one of him and Whitfield before the bye and the other after. But I'll probably end up just getting someone else because I'm impatient and need the yolo trades to comeback from the brink.

good reward for patience bully,  I got him three weeks ago avg 106 since then so paid overs for him but dumped burgess and have got additional 120 plus points over a d6 rookie.  so on that basis trade has been good for the team.

Thoughts on Suckling? Looking at more PODs to either claw bank or sink masterfully. I still don't have Lloyd or Whitfield but have three def premium spots to fill (assuming Williams, Smith, Witherden are all good enough to be keepers). Probably need to save those spots for Lloyd, Whitfield, Hurn but don't see how matching who the best already have will help me catch up - it just stops the bleeding. I can afford anyone this week (or anyone but Hurn, depends on what trades I make). Thoughts?

I noticed this when watching the game :(

[PowerBug]

Luke Brown was also the main kick in player last season.


This was from back in January, those numbers being kick ins for the Crows. Obviously Smith missed a lot of the season but shows that Brown was the main man without him, looks like he might still be even with him

Blakely will be an interesting one.  Will have one price movement before his bye.  One to watch.

Agreed. This guy is the next generation big Freo mid field player ...
It will be interesting to see the impact he makes on Fyfe and Mindy.
More protection for Fyfe
Mundy more forward
Freo backs are set IMO

[SilverLion]

Hurn is a must have.

[RaisyDaisy]

Hurn is a must have.

THE biggest beneficiary of the 6-6-6

Hurn is a must have.

One of my starting pods that I got right.
