Yeah Rich is hard decision to leave on the pine.. he did well last week against carlton who could be the new sydney as they deny the other team the ball. So could still grit out a good score against Syd.. Decisions decisions... Robinson might be good in garbage times stats against essendon..
Sorry folks setup a poll but forgot to put petrenko in.. Maybe one of the Mods can fix this up for me..:):)?????? Get rid of Suckling.. not sure hes playing this week. Petrenkos a no brainer though if you have him play him..
Ok think this question needs to asked.. I think warrants more discussion now as we are starting to have more lucrative options over who to start on field.. Like Captain predictions
As we all have a fairly good crop of Rookies.. Ala Robinsons/Z-Man/Cheney/Beams/Rich/Otten/Dangermouse/ etc... Be...
Yeah they said 91 mins out of 121.. he only came on halfway in 1st qtr and same again for 3qtr. So yeah.. testament to his ablilites.. really.. very workman like.. like cross, kornes, swan.. just comes on and has a immediate impact..
Yeah ill think you find.. most super serious DTrs wouldnt of taken the risk.. As they are all about proven durable reliable players. Especially when it comes too premiums, there no going to arse around. They don't know if daziell is quite injury prone yet or can really do what has done all...
haha yeah.. its a little premature.. hes obviously in very good form.. its is a little too much to expect him to be giving you 100++ week in week out..
Nothing wrong with bit if man crush... Makes for great viewing on TV.. hes just pops up everywhere when brisbane get possession.. cracks me...
yeah.. very very happy with daziell.. was worried when he was name on the bench.. but didn't disappoint when he came on..
From what I've seen not alot of competitive teams have daziell as premium choice could end up being a fairly unique premium pick.. which is what it is really comes down to...
Stoked.. Tuck you legend.. 110 pts.. and ablett as captain.. 246 pts..
So far i have all my midfielders hit 100+ with daziell and cornes and rich to go.. had richo as well.. 114 nice..
There might be some big scores this week i reckon.. fair few popular players doing well.
Yeah... I'm happy for everyone to bag him and not select him, based on his price tag.. but the reality is there that his continues on with his current form hes is actually underpriced.. Look at his consistency as well.. hes one of those players like Swan. He will be Top 5 Midfielder at this...
Not messing around and going full Rookie/Gun strategy.. You reckon you will be able to bring in all the Guns come Round 6-7... putting a lot faith the rookies.. I would personally put in a least a few mid-pricers.breakout contenders in there.. Guess Kerr and Masten, Drummond will step it up...
I heard Gram would get that midfielder job over goddard.. or are they both touted to move into midfield.. or share that role? both had stints in the midfield.. last year..
Just my opinion., I think that is a fairly flawed strategy.. how many teams had the ABCS last year... some teams are notorious for overpossessing the ball like geelong.. making them all DT sluutz.. Same goes with supercoach. their are certain teams that play better in SC.. due to there style of...
huh where have you heard that? he was busy at manuka.. 20+ possies.. noticed he was playing up the ground alot.. but hes does that a bit anyway.. might just be NAB though..
Yeah you right about gibbs i think it doesn't really matter.. one of those kind of players..
Yeah heath shaw is a interesting one, on his day he is easily up there with the elite.. I initially had him locked in.. But teams had too much success with tagging him last year and crushing...
Hi just wanted to start a discussion on Iffy players who you might think might have their DT output increased or decreased due to change or role, depth chart/possie shuffle due to short/long term injuries or retirements ..in 2009..
The most obvious player to talk about that i can think of is...
read fellas... sounds like Pyke may have the job.. if you havent heard this already... with Jake Orreal a outside chance.. Pyke would have to the obvious choice.. bigger body for #2 ruck.. but skillz are concern... One might as well.. put both in your team... as assurance.. What the hell...
Yes agreed. if your specific plan involved in starting rich for this reason.. and the money saved goes towards a player upgrade elsewhere that your chasing that you really want in your lineup..
But putting rich as a starter in your mids purely on hype is nuts. Theres plently of Low priced...
Yeah thats fine on you bench.. thats all you want from your rookie bench reserves, couldnt ask for more as a cash cow rookie.. I was talking more about having rich as midfield starter though and averaging 50s..
Nah not reallly. not on you midfield. you midfield players are your money makers.. maybe passable on your backline or forward line.. My side i cant see anyone getting consistently around 50 pts except 1-2 my forwards, and maybe 1-2 of my backs..
here here.. i hear you.. I think the hype has driven too many unrealistic expectations for rich. Everyones madly trying to find this years Rhys Palmer.. The thing is what rhys did last year was freakish.. and I wouldn't expect there to be someone like Rhys in every Draft year.. For player to do...
i got that info from the AFL prospectus.. Overall negative deviation from his finishing average.. I guess.. 80 isnt a massive deviation from his finishing average for the season.. Compared to a Franklin that can have a 140 DT game followed by a 45 and then a 100+ game... I could see that if...
hey mate.. nice research.. I have been in the same boat with harvey after reading those stats about harveys trend to be slow starter in the h&A season.. with his average dropping by 10 or so.. in first 1/4...
I like your research and I do think it will have some bearing on his DT outlook this...
more importantly folks does this mean we will see a MID rookie take his place.. for at least first couple of rounds..? Perhaps a Ottens or a Dangerfield.. ??
Haha i just managed to finish building my side and accidentally maxed my salary cap... So i have $0.00 dollars left.. I've never be able to do that. theres always $1000 or so left. and I'm pretty happy with side.. Unless their are any glaring standouts in the nab cup.. Thinks its meant to be...
Mundy got 69 DT points tonight.. i know its NAB cup but hardly convincing.. He did look pretty good the times when he had the ball though.. lets face it the only real advantage of mundy is that he is listed as DEF..and that he will give consistent midfielder scores... but will he cut it enough...
Yeah i just put him my side at DEF.. downgraded from heath shaw.. so i could throw a little more money in midfield..
His last DT socres.. for his last 6 Games 2008.. was when he was thrown into midfield fulltime.. Notice his scores are more consistent for that period.. wheres earlier in the...
cheers for the comments.. yeah.. its really a case by case basis with taking on rookies.. Research is all you really can do.. and lady luck takes over there after.. But the right research can put you in better position come RD 6,7,8. But with untried rookies it is always a balance of how much...
