Player X v Player Y - 2014 Edition

[footyfix]

After a LOT of juggling I'm pretty happy with it.
Def- Hanley, Mitchell, Simpson, Laidler, McDonald, Howard- Curran, Langford
FWD- Pav, Mitchell, Danger, Higgins, Caddy,K-H,- Rohan, McDonough
Ruc- Sandi, Longer, Currie, Thurlow

I gots both on my bench.

Who's your other fwd emg?

I'm going with Mcdonough. I want all my cash cows to peak during the bye rounds so I can trade to avoid byes and get in the premo's (8,9,10). My gut tells me Mcdonough might be more likely to score higher than those two considdering the role he is playing. A lot of money on the bench, but I want as much money as possible generated before round 8,9,10.

Just don't have the same confidence in the other two.

 

[Mattrox]

Jamie Elliot or Shaun Higgens or any other fwd worth less than $370k (already have Caddy)

I'm taking Higgins, but only for round 1 at this stage.






For Real DT:

Cunningham as a cheap mid vs Crouch (Both vest candidates, Crouch likely to play only 3-4 rounds 1st up)

For Fantasy I'm worring about my cash cows after round 1 looking for the best BE's

For real DT I am willing to burn 2 trades after Rnd 2 to settle on who is going to generate cash fastest. The only way a rnd 8 bye player gets in is if his BE is massive and will likely generate cash before rnd 8. A round 10 rookie with a slightly lower BE can slow burn 2 more rounds.

 

[CrowAboutIt]

Mumford or Jacobs?

Fair call, but when you have surplus round 10 rookies, a round 8/9 rookie with the potential to score who can balance out your squad is like gold

Langdon, Impey, Mcdonald, Langford, Crouch.... there are a few.

[swans4eva]

Mumford or Jacobs?

Can't go wrong with either - flip a coin. If your midfield is loaded with round 8 mids then Mummy might be a better option.

Ablett and Pav or Barlow and Parker?

Bearing in mind I have Swan and my mid premiums mostly have round 8 byes.

 

[CrowAboutIt]

So how is this round working. After round 1 including both weeks can we completely change our whole team?

 

[paul barnard]

langdon v guthrie

Ultimate footy draft league fyi

 

[lmach]

Tyson (mid) and Laidler (def) v Cunningham (mid) and Hodge/Bartel (def)?

(for RDT)

In AFL Fantasy, yes.

Probably Langdon. Seems to have a higher ceiling than Guthrie.

 

[Butler]

(for RDT)

Geez that seems like a big difference? I'm assuming you have money left over with the first option?

I'm not sold on Cunningham so I would go with option 1.

I'm not sold on Cunningham so I would go with option 1.

I forgot to add that the second option would require me trading Lobbe to McIntosh. It really was just a lazy question because I didn't really look at my side properly. I'm sticking with option one.

 

[Deeskys]

Jobe v Scooter?

 

[Forward Press]

Jobe v Scooter?

Scooter. We have a softer draw, plus there's the elephant in the room re: Jobe and a few other Essendon players.

Edit - I also think Scooter won't get a lot of opposition attention and could still improve a little more compared to Jobe.

 

[SloppyJoe]

Captain choice... Watson or Cotchin?

 

[LanLion]

Scooter. We have a softer draw, plus there's the elephant in the room re: Jobe and a few other Essendon players.

Agree, on pure points, go Scooter. The only thing against Scooter is if he decides to be more "team player" and do more run-with roles. He can still ton in this role mind you.

I actually think Watson is gonna go really hard to start the season with this ASADA thing hanging over his head. So I have him, hopefully he can hang around til byes then I can drop him for a Rd 8 premo... I wanted both, but purely cos of finances and investing more in the forwards, I went with Jobe.

 

[Modbury_Hawk_12]

Should I trade Franklin for Cameron?

Initially I picked Buddy because it could be a safer option but, I'm probably jumping to conclusions here, it looks like he will drop off and Cameron will end up being a lot better player.

 

[Scrotes2000]

Probably better here -

Which on field rookie should I temporarily trade out for Polec's 85 points?
Michie or Tyson?

Michie. Tyson is getting the bigger wraps around the Melbourne camp and I expect him to score higher and have better JS than Michie.

Who to play in the midfield: Ellis, Dunstan or some other similarly priced rookie?

I'd be surprised if Cameron proves to be a consistent scorer - this in incredibly rare in a 3rd year KPF. I agree Buddy spells trouble, but there are better options than Cameron

who do you reckoni should get?

 

[Yellow Feathers]

Cameron scored a 56 in a winning side... What about that makes you want to get him in? Im very confused. Buddy scored a 52.

Given that you have unlimited trades before rd 2 (fantasy) why would you go for either?

And if you need to trade Buddy in RDT I wouldn't be looking at Cameron.

 

[SloppyJoe]

Parker/Danger/Martin/Caddy/Higgins etc
