AFL Dream Team 2006

[Don Cottagers]

Im thinking ill kick out JLo for Campbell as it seems Everitt is really on the way down and Campbell should become the no.1 ruckman at Hawthorn and then trade Brennan for Bruce or R Murphy.

yeah but if waters is dropped i am forced to trade him

 

[coombs55]

I'm ranked 97th overall now after getting 1915 this week with some poor performances from Fraser, J.Bowden, McPhee, Thomas, Gibson and Waters.. and Massie had to step in for Sinclair..

My teams gained $420,000 in price.. I was just wondering who you guys think would be the best back to get because I want to get rid of Sinclair. I can afford anyone because I have $200,000 in the bank already. I'm thinking C.Cornes or Hodge

 

[SnIcKeRs #3]

can i hae an opinion on this team:

Backs:
J.Bowden
D.Wirrpunda
N.Bassett
N.D.Brown
M.Whelan(likely to be traded for c.bolton next week)
T.Hentschel
J.Roughead
Centres:
S.Tuck
T.Johnstone
P.Haselby
R.Griffen
Rucks:
J.White
D.Jolly
A.Sandilands
J.Fraser
Forwards:
P.Bowden
J.Watson
T.Croad
A.Davey
D.Motlop
L.Mcpharlin
D.Thomas

Emergencies:
L.Roberts-Thompson-Back
M.Murphy-Centre
M.Jamar or P.Ryder-Ruck
J.Kennedy-Forward

i think you need a better forward line there isnt anyone that will consistantly get 100 or more. rucks are very good.centres are pretty good but maybe a little bit incosistant and backline is good but basset is a risky option. sorry am i a bit harsh ??

[Mordecai]

yeah but if waters is dropped i am forced to trade him

why is he in danger?

 

[Effes]

How will Cox go against Kangaroos this week in Canberra?

 

[SnIcKeRs #3]

didnty perform on the weekend its on the eagles board they think he l get dropped also

 

[Hard Ball Get]

Dockers fans, Will Hadrill play this week or next?
I have to decide whether to keep or trade Egan.
If Hadril will play I can keep him and have Hadrill or Hay enter the 22.

He hasnt even played a game in the WAFL yet so he is still a good 2weeks off playing AFL considering he missed all of last year..they will want to get some match fitness into him. Also, Ryan Murphy would be next in line, he played WAFL this week and would come into the side before Haddrill.

Dont like your centers. No consistent ball winners in there.
I'm against P. Bowden as most on here kow so I wouldnt have him. Otherwise it looks ok

Yeah im gonna upgrade one of my centres this week, thats why ive got the 162k in the bank, thinking of getting james hird or adam simpson. You cant fault P.Bowden at this stage, he's averaging 95.

You said it.

Getting Skipper now could be interesting. If you want to wait for the lowest price for him then quick question is: will he score more the 64 against Geelongs ruck dept.? If yes get him now before he rises again, if not then leave him till next week as Freo have Adel (not a great ruck dept so Sandilands should do OK). Only problem with that is McIntosh was Cox this week and unless he beats 56 (unlikely) he will drop in value. Bit of a line ball choice but id trade...

I think you will find you are wrong about SKipper. Even if he only gets say 10 his value will continue to rise - probably to about 190k. If he gets 50 it will go to about 210k. If he gets 100 it will go to 240K. These are rough guides but they are enough to give you an idea of how it works.

Your statement about him needing 64 would be accurate if his value was already at the value that his current 3 game average equates to - which it is not.

 

[Stuck21]

You said it.

yeah true, not much point in dropping someone who is averaging 95 though.

 

[TigerFan]

ok, everybody else is doing it...

definetely especially considering he costs 200k, you'd be silly in my opinion to even contemplate getting rid of him. atm he's one of my best pick ups, lets hope he remains consistent like he has done for the early part of this year

 

[Stuck21]

Would people rather James Hird or Adam Simpson in their Dream Team Squad?

 

[JuddyisGod]

is there a chance he wont play until round 10 or so?

 

[Lynch drops a mark]

Would people rather James Hird or Adam Simpson in their Dream Team Squad?

Rowan Jones

Haselby and Kerr are in the same price range. They are good options.
Id have Simpson of the 2 though due to Hirds injury problems.

 

[dspeed]

if gram gets around 50 again this week, do u think he'll go up or down?

reason for asking is i am thinking of trading him now for stiller, and using the extra cash to trade rooke for a better backman, possibly mcmahon

 

[Hard Ball Get]

Im thinking of trading Lloyd for Skipper and using the cash to upgrade either Hay or Mgreggor. I could even get a player in better form for simmilar value like C. Bolton (who I traded 10 mins prior to rd 1) or Hentschel.
