Malcolm Blight has K Hunt in his side and he has inside knowledge at Gold Coast. His scores in NAB Cup aren't too bad either. Against Geelong 28 SC for 32% game time. GWS 58 SC, 70% game time, Sydney 62 SC, 73% game time. In total 10 kicks, 32 handballs some of which were clearances, Disposal Efficiency about 74 % plus 6 tackles. Awkwardly priced, great JS, but has the dreaded R13 bye for defenders. Could be a smoky. Still learning the game and can only improve. For me, I prefer Ellis and Morris from the Tiges over him.
My non-premium defenders are: Guthrie, M Clarke, Ellis, S Shaw & Bugg. (Prems: Goddard, H Shaw, Lids, Broughton). Do you guys think doubling up on Gutherie ($180K) & Clarke ($170K) is a waste of cash? If so, which would you choose and which cheap rookie would you bring in? Morris is a possibility but was trying to steer clear of 3 x Tigers defenders. Your thoughts appreciated
