AFL Dream Team 2008

[Cruiser23]

Thursday March 20 - Carlton v Richmond MCG 6.10pm

Not great.

Why? You will still know the thursday and saturday teams.

 

[m0nty]

Oh right yeah, you were talking about the specific round 1 hoo-hah.

Yep, I will be online posting teams next Thursday evening as they come to hand and putting posts up on the front page highlighting what has changed when it changes.

if u dont like dont do it

With that attitude I am guessing you are happy with all the AFL's decisions over the span of your lifetime. After all if you didn't like the decisions you wouldn't watch it.

I am also assuming that you had absolutly no issue with the rubbish posts that are riddled throughout this thread. Of course if you didn't like them you wouldn't post here.

I take it you are also happy that DT took so long to open? I mean if you had a problem with it you just wouldn't bother doing it.... Right.

What are the thoughts on Peter Burgoyne? If he is fully fit then he is assured of being one of the top scoring backmen as he will cruise around half back picking up kicks and marks at will. However i know he had a shoulder operation and his scores in the Fantasy Freako email havent been amazing. Do any Port fans know if this was due to him getting limited time on ground or whether he is still suffering any lasting effects from his op. Also, will he be fully fit to go round 1?

A bit worried about the AFL website holding up when 300,000 people try to get on between 5.30 and 6.00 to make the last minute change from Saturday team lists.

Me too. Ill have my team ready to roll, and may just change some rookies around if i get a chance at the last minute.

If you're going to do something do it properly
However the AFL are pretty good at being half assed.

So was Bruce and you love him..

I do hear you but it on the bright side it does allow you to, rather than just go for the predictable red, white and blue arrangement, go for something totally unique like a nice aqua/magenta deal.

Wouldn't that be pretty?

If Stevens is a late withdrawl (don't panic, it's just an example) I can see a lot of people getting stuck with him when the site melts!

I would think Opp coaches would play him tight off / tag him off half back this year to stop the drive he can create. And the shoulder is a concern.

 

[Drummond]

Haha, yer, my inital thoughts also, I only started making my team yesterday because I was running out of time waiting for it to open. Much more of a challenge, maybe a 2000 score will look good this season.

The team you want will come together eventually (even though you will be changing it a thousand more times before lockout).

Indeed!

 

[Wazdog]

Hoorah!!
Collective Sigh of relief. I was starting to worry a bit that I couldn't hold off the threat of all my mates defecting to Supercoach.
I love Dream Team.

Worth the 50K to upgrade him straight to the Chad who will dominate regardless?

 

[Beau_Waters for PM]

Am I the only one who thinks the new interface looks terrible?

I'm starting to think you are more obsessed with Mr. Samazan than I am!

 

[kingyubbo]

Couple of queries (jersey graphics look nicer thanks to the Aurion V6)

Jones + Riewoldt
Stanton + Deledio
Murphy + Riewoldt
Hodge + Deledio

Wondering what would be the best bet (understanding hodge isn't going to be playing Rnd 1)

i thought that at teh start of last year as well
just something we'll get used to

 

[ohanlon14]

heres a name that hasn't been on this thread. what does anyone, especially roos supporters, think of scott mcmahon? he's only 236,000.

 

[54Dogs]

Is the "Vice Captain" basically used to make you feel bad when he scores 150 and your captain racks up 60.

Looks like Coxxy got his own rule created after the late withdrawal last year.

 

[Biggie]

Just registered, it feels good I have to admit.

I'm not the one with him in my av mate and besides, I think I'm the only other one on here who has ever heard of him..

More like Jimmy Bartel and his appendix if anything... ultimately won me a GF

N-O.

Kangas, I've been having some bad thoughts about Leigh Harding. Embarrasing I know.

Can you please knock some sense into me and explain why I should not pick him.

 

[Hawks 08]
