AFL Dream Team 2008: Part 3

[FandangoDingo]

I gotta question, im about to trade out one of my backmen for the big Chad Cornes, but i dont know which one to take out? im taking one of these four

Lindsay Gilbee
Jason Gram
Jared Brennan
Tadhg Kennelly (ignore the fact that he is injured, simply about who you believe will average the most points for me)

any thoughts? cheers

Wait a week. He's playing the Swans (not a great track record) and is coming back from a badly broken hand. Wait a week.

But on the other hand..... Jared Brennan!!

just say it GTA007

And what are the Saints doing? Just being the Saints!

Saints 4 07 Flag.....You need a new name. Did you get tired of updating it every year... or have you tempered your expectations and is that the 3007 premiership you're aiming for?? Perhaps still a tad ambitious!

 

[the egg]

My forwardline currently consists of...

Pavlich
Brown
Burton
Porplyzia
Chapman
B Johnson
Gamble

Pretty keen to upgrade Gamble in the next week or two but it's gonna be a pretty tough to pick someone out of Didak, Murphy, Franklin or Richo. Didak and Murphy are basically in the premium bracket now so i think it would be safe to upgrade to one of them. Hard to chose tho! Gambles getting me 70's at the moment, but i want those 120's

 

[Daz]

pumped for tonight. i have

bartel (captain)
chapman
shaw
milburn
gamble (emg)
wellingham (emg)

i don't think hoping for a 500/5 start is being overly optimistic.

Swap Burton for S.Johnson and i have to same forward line. I'm also wanting to trade Gamble out pretty soon. He still has about 50k to go up which should take 3-4 weeks. I would really like to get Richo but i don't see him having a bad game anytime soon so his price could decrease. I am also looking at Riewoldt. He is 353k and has a b/e of 155 so could drop another 20-30k in the next few weeks, would be a perfect timing because Gamble would peak around that time. Might be a 80-90k upgrade which is pretty good.

 

[Hawkmad]

pfeiffer to s fisher (no emgs)
or
pfeiffer to myers (starting) and hill to chapman/franklin


probably first one but thoughts appreciated

I would go the bolded one's. The Franklin selection is maybe a bit biased though Chappy is still a good choice

Taylor in for Symes
Corey
Bartel (c)
Ablett
Swan
Cloke
Gamble
Wellie (bench)

 

[sdsdsdsd]

Richardson or Franklin/Palmer/GAblett + 4 trades?
or
SJohnson/Corey/Bartell + 3 trades?

thoughts people?

any1???

 

[Walesy]

any1???

Is that 4(3) trades left over? or 4(3) trades to do what you want to do?

 

[KouDogg]

Just done my trades and it feels good .

T.Cloke-----> Chapman
Kennelly -----> Milburn.

I did the Kennelly thing mainly for long term rather than the short term and i think it will pay off.

My team is now officially finished as far as upgrading players go.....

Got 7 trades left for long term injuries and suspensions.

Richardson or Franklin/Palmer/GAblett + 4 trades?

As Bolded

 

[lifelike_]

Reasonably big night for me too.

Shaw
Taylor (Kennelly)

Bartel (c)
Wellingham (emg)

Chapman
S Johnson
Gamble

Bit of a mixed bag, but hoping Geelong gets a lot of the ball.

 

[sdsdsdsd]

Left over mate

WIth houli out i can put MAsten in but i was going to upgrade him to kornes anyway so should i do that leaving me with nothing in the bank.

Or do i put Masten in and downgrade houli to cotchin and upgrade Gamble/Rioli??

I am leaning towards gettin Kornes for houli Then next week getting bartel then move onto my forward line lol/

I would go with P.Burg mate, should average the most out of those guys, possibly Johncock. Either one is good .

My choice would between Johncock & P.Burgoyne

 

[Masss#10]

yer was thinking the same, the only concern i have is i already have one PA defender in the CHAD and Johncock may be a good replacement for Symes...see my point?

Might be a 80-90k upgrade which is pretty good.

Sounds like a good plan. I really want Richo, basically because so many people have Franklin and it would be a good way to differentiate. The difference between the two is that Richo isn't getting the no.1 defender anymore where as Franklin is, so there's potential 60's for Franklin where as it would be unlikely for Richo to score that low.

Riewoldt on the other hand...i traded him out when he got injured. I've never picked up a player after i dumped him but if he starts carving it will be very tempting!

I have both Chad and P.Burg and honestly i cant see the problem with having both of them in your team. They have differen't roles in the port side and i doubt they will "steal" points from each other.

However if that is what you think then go with Johncock .

Corey, Bartel, Ablett

ive ended up going with Joncock...think he may be more consistent than P.Burg..and Adelaide seem to like chipping the ball around more in the backline..

P.Burg has the swans next week and he should get a heavy tag...but that wasnt why i chose Johncock

EDIT: i think i may end up trading in P.Burgoyne next week anyway if i upgrade Ibbo or maybe take B.Jones out for him

Same here Richo for me in 2 weeks (hopefully)

Plz can some1 tell me which combination is better

1, Richo, Ablett, Palmer, leaves me with 4 trades left for the season
2, S Johnson, Corey, Bartell, leaves me with 3

Trades left as of which round?

 

[Walesy]

Left over mate

Then option number #1...

And then never trade again.
