tell me some improvements slash means not decided yet.

You will have to upgrade at least 11 of those players during the season. Using the conversation rate of 2 trades per upgrade you will use 22 trades during the season to get it perfect...

problem with this is you have minus 2 trades left for injuries

How do you think Brent Prismal will go this year? priced at $218,300 , and averaged 80 before he did his wrist last year? i know that Geelong already have one of the best Midfields in the comp, but is he a good pick up as a cheap Mid ?

As has been said before he's a good pickup if he plays. The question is whether or not he can get gametime.

 

[T Rick]

none what do you suggest i do then? maybe trade Hawkins for Jetta, Kosi for Porplzia/Rusling then trade hurn and mattner and i would have 580k to spend on the backs like Kennely/mattner and king/mundy.

Don't trade Kosi mate. Don't listen to these newbs, he is a gun. Set for a huge year. .

 

[sante]

Prismall looks like good value but not at Geelong.

I know Xavier Clarke is a good pre-season performer but he is very cheap for someone due to breakout. Anyone got him in their teams?

 

[chickens_law]

Kosi or Hall?

Tough choice.

 

[Hirdy_5]

Kosi or Hall?

Tough choice.

I got both but when Reiwoldt and The G- train are both in the side i dont think Kosi ill get as much of it, well thats what he was sating last night, so Hall for me.

 

[Hawks 08]

I got both but when Reiwoldt and The G- train are both in the side i dont think Kosi ill get as much of it, well thats what he was sating last night, so Hall for me.

I'm starting with him probably. If he's not getting much ball up 4ward I'm sure Lyon will push him up the ground and back into the ruck.

Don't trade Kosi mate. Don't listen to these newbs, he is a gun. Set for a huge year. .

If you're referring to me i didn't tell him to trade Kosi. I said it was risky having Kosi, Hawkins and Thompson in the forward line as they are all injury prone/young and might not play 22 games.

 

[Houli2Gumbleton]

Where can i get dt stats for practice games?

 

[Hawks 08]

Where can i get dt stats for practice games?

Garhhhhhhh. What is your email? They aren't stats but DT points if that's what your after. I'll send you them if you wish.

 

[Hirdy_5]

Where can i get dt stats for practice games?

Not untill Wednesday in the Fantasy Freko's email, sign up on the Champion Data website.

 

[happy_eagle]

its a good thing knowing that whenever a cornes gets the ball i get points

I'm finding it really hard to split Lenny Hayes & Daniel Cross apart...At their best they are both capable of getting 100+ scores consistently.....Any idea who I should pick ??

Both.

 

[54Dogs]

Plus Stevens, Dyson, Coughlan and Armitage. I would think all 6 will make some cash.

I reckon Hayes can go 120+ in a few games. Can't see Cross doing that to many times. In other words Hayes best is better then Cross's best.

 

[Beerfish]

I've had Hall in my team from day 1. One bad year doesn't ruin a career as far as I'm concerned. If fit, you cannot ignore him.

Watch me.

 

[Colin D'Cops]

I know this has probably been asked a million times already but I haven't really paid much notice...My question is, how many weeks is Hodge out for ??

11 how would i have to upgrade 11. Your not inclucding bench players are you?

I traded Hawkins for Jetta and then i traded Mattner up to Johncock, does that make it better.

A good strategy is to have 15+ plus players over 260 and 15- players below 260.

Butane is right!!! You have 11 guys that will need upgrading, i'm not sold on yr 15 + 15 strategy, i think it'll just get you into trouble!!!

I currently have 4 guys in my team in the price range between 200K and 300K, starting!!All the rest are guns or below 200K players.

At the moment i have 5 guys starting who are under 170K, 2 backs, 2 mids and 1 fwd.

Have 6, maybe 7 upgrades during the course of the season to set the team.

Although alot may change when rnd1 teams are out..

 

[powaflag08]

Hows my team? The newer version got rid of hawkins for Sellar, got rid of kosi for porplyzia then i upgraded Hurn to Johncock and have 120k left.

I'm with NT and Butane on this one. Too many mid range players means using too many trades. At the back end of the year, you need all your players averaging 85+ to be in the mix and unless those mid-rangers have a big upside (like N Stevens) they will use trades to upgrade.
