Teams Rate my 2014 AFL Fantasy team

[Membling]

Big mistake with Maric.. should of done my research there. Might just have to wear it for a couple of weeks until his back don't want to make a trade. I've got Longer as my emergency you'd think he'd play.

If AFL fantasy, got the rolling lockout so you can change maric until tomorrow. Ten we have the free hit anyway in which you can do team rom scratch. Should be fine either way

Richmond have already played, so Maric can not be traded out until the end of the round.

So with Rd 1 almost done, interested to see who's sticking to their original team for Rd 2 on, and who's completely changing based on Rd 1 scores. I suspect Mitchell and Dangerfield will be removed from alot of teams (mine included probably)

Locks for me by line so far:
D: Hibberd, Swallow, Suckling, Langdon, Langford
M: Barlow, Watson, Cotchin, Beams, Tyson, Polec, Dunstan
R: Sandi, Currie
F: Martin, Caddy, Rohan

Interesting fact: Dangerfield scored 51 points in Round 1 2013. His lowest score of the year.

yep, certainly an interesting decision. No doubt he'll be one of the top fwds, just a question of if you think he'll drop in price enough to be worth not starting with. Sticking with him could def be the right thing to do.

Tbh, I was tossing up whether to start with him originally before Rd 1 (didnt have him in my Rd 1 side), probably will go without for now....I think.

Rooks for def and forward are thin on the ground really

My Rd 1 team effectively with loopholes readjusted: Fantasy not my #1 game this year, it shows, not a great squad

B: McVeigh, Mitchell, Grimes, Swallow, Suckling, Langford (Laidler, NZ guy from Hawks)
C: Swan, Barlow, Cotchin (c), Beams, Shiels, Thomas, Tyson, Polec (Conway, O'Brien)
R: Cox, Sandilands (US guy from North, Smith)
F: Dangerfield, Mitchell, Roughead, Franklin, Gunston, Caddy (Rohan, Wearden)

Guys I'll probably take into Rd2, this will be pretty cookie cutter me thinks: still undecided on last 7/8.
McVeigh, Mitchell, Simpson, Swallow, Suckling, Langdon, Langford
Ablett, Cotchin, Beams, Shiels, Tyson, Polec, Ellis, Dunstan
Sandilands, Currie, Thurlow
Dangergfield, Mitchell, Roughead, Caddy, Rohan

My round 1 team. Think I'll ditch Hansen. I half expected him to score like he did at the end of last year.

Any other changes recommended?

Agree with changing Hansen. Also Thurlow is still rookie listed and doesn't look like he'll be elevated so I'd swap him.

Opinions please? (I'm sacrificing round 8, so don't worry about too many round 8 players )
Rookies subject to who is named too.

Any thoughts on this side? I have $69,500 left. Thanks all

I would probably trade Murphy to Shiels/Macrae and JKH to Caddy/M Wright. IMO a combination of Shiels & Wright will score more than Murphy & Rohan.

It's weird having the normal first round lockout nerves at the start of round 2... must say I'm not a fan of the free hit in AFL Fantasy

 

[Jay-Z]

Have gone with a bit of a risky mid-pricers strategy this year:

 

[Fatrollo]

Have gone with a bit of a risky mid-pricers strategy this year:

Rather similar to mine - tactically, at least. I've also gone for a very risky, midpriced team though I also have ~$600k spare, though have plans to splurge that over the coming rounds as players go up and down, just so I can at least attempt to get some sort of better value and use the start of the fixture to my advantage. Here's hoping it works out, much like yours.

Shiels (81) + Wright (52) = 133

Murphy (103) + Rohan (52) = 155.

Great advice, idiot.

AFL Dream Team.

REMAINING SALARY: $35,015
TEAM VALUE: $11,450,420

Thoughts? I know I have a weak midfield, but with the new rules I am playing a mid pricer strategy and I have gotten quite a bit of cash. Over the next couple of weeks I will be downgrading a mid pricer, upgrading another.

Note: I dont think my backline will need major tinkering but hanley, enright, mcveigh will be on my watch cards

I would say that Langford wont make you much cash anymore. I traded him for S.Mitchell in the post I just put up.

I would keep an eye on enright, when he will come back? 400k+ not playing is wasting away points and cash. Lsat week I traded him for Jaensch. I would watch the teams on thursday.

You need to get rid of lecras, he is injured. No.1 priority. Chapman (injury cloud) or Merrett would be good targets.

My 2 cents

NOTE: This thread is almost dead. I thought you posted it after the weekend just gone. my bad

Solid advice.

Pinpoint your weakest link, and obviously who is inured. Then, try to maximise cashflow and points on the field.

jep, I am still mulling over my trades but this week was Langford > Mitchell & caddy > Merrett.

I wanted kelly, but from a money making/points perspective the players killing me where langford, caddy, frost. The rest are going to make me money. Except maybe ambrose as he is injured, but with the forward rookie options he is worth holding on to.

The reason I chose to get rid of Langford over frost was Mitchell is cheap after his first round and I think Hunter is a better F6 then langdon is a d6.....plus I couldnt afford n.riewaldt and I am scared of chappy's health
