What do you think about picking up Hodge this week?
He has dropped a MASSIVE amount and looks to be scoring a bit better since his forced break.
Yeah Hodge is tough one if you picked him from the start. on and off injured.. playing CHB roles on Reiwoldts, j browns .. and getting the forward tag when he gets moved to his normal rebounding half back role..
I am seriously considering him though.. as Gilhams coming back next round and he shouldnt get any CHB roles like he did on the weekend when he got moved to Jonno brown.. Theres is the issue though of his injury proneness and lingering injuries.. whether thats been holding him back.. He has shown last game after his break.. that he is starting to hit some form.. And i think with the two week break.. Hawks will consolidate and come out stronger for it and hodge with the extra week rest should come out firing.. well hopefully i would wait and see how he goes.. though..
On the $$ side of things hes dropped another -$11,000 to $296,000 and has break even score of 74 which he should prolly get next round. So hes pretty much bottomed out in price.. will be cheapest i reckon all year.. So good time to bring him in..
But there are other options though at his price range.. that dont come with as much risk, mundy, shaw, ellis, ryder .. etc.. But hodge is a champion and usually champions always prevail. i find.. Just hope he can stay on the park..
Im looking at upgrading houlihan now.. as he got a forward taggin role so considering all players around his price range..
If you got a bit of dosh though.. and want to go with certainty i would jump on goddard in two weeks.. as he got a 53 in his rolling average last round and should drop in price over this week and the following.. Not heaps but.. but should be a little cheaper than usual..
At the end depends what youre chasing in your backline if you want consistency and durablity.. go enright, gilberts, fishers, ... but if you chasing big scores but might be up and down or injury prone.. then hodge, ellis, gilbees, purgoynes, lockyer.. etc..
Backline is always the hardest to work out i reckon every year.. always give you grief.. i usually just side with caution and go durable players.. that dont get alot of 100+ but give you a full season at 85 average... Didnt stop me getting raines, drummond cornes though.. next year though..learnt my lesson..
