AFL Dream Team 2008

[whattagun07]

1794 last week
2008 this week

how do i compare to all you guys?

i was 4,568th, hoping for top 2000

 

[panga]

Epic Fail today:

Foley, Raines, Kennelly, N. Brown.

Throw in Dal Santo yesterday as well... Palmer on the bench when Dempsey is playing... Really poor.

 

[Masss#10]

scored 2069

 

[Pumbi]

1869.

I can't belive how badly I've done.

I guess i feel similar to you. I wouldnt go to the extent of disbelief, but i scored 1846 and feel dissapointed.

 

[the_insid3r]

At one stage today I thought I'd be lucky to even break 1700 but with Simmonds, Deledio and Bowden all having good games, I managed to get 1918 with which I'm very happy, considering I still had a number of players who performed well below their best.

 

[dylan101]

Finished with 1987, hopefully will get me in the top 1000.

 

[lifelike_]

1867.

My heart bleeds for the whingers who only scored 1950.

 

[Cerpin Taxt]

Mcintosh out for Simmonds

Is this sideways, backwards or worth it??

Who knows. I was thinking the same thing while watching the score update. But then again, I avoided Simmonds for the same reason I avoided Dew, Thompson and a number of others, and look what happened this week!

I'm going to stick with McIntosh and if at the end of the season I'm wrong I can rest assured that nobody made the perfect team.

 

[BIG FAT BOB]

2007. Should get top 3 or 4000 with that.

 

[Beerfish]

1937 with Lucas on the bench still. Happy with that.

 

[Benno_900]

Shocker: 1710. Only seven players over 80 in a seemingly high scoring week.

Contemplating Azza Edwards down to Hill this week. If Hill can average 75 (which I expected from Azza) then I'll be OK with that trade.

Mcintosh out for Simmonds

Is this sideways, backwards or worth it??

Hamish will average 85-95 this season IMO. Depends how you think Simmonds will go but I reckon it's a waste of a trade even if Simmo averages similar.

 

[Swan4Brownlow]

Stick with McIntosh especially if he is your number 1 ruckman. Even if you have Cox it would be an advantage to keep McIntosh because at the end of the year you may very well have the two highest scoring ruckman without having needed to trade. Also laughing at those who got rid of Dyson, Wells, Deledio, Newman and rushed to get Nicoski, Thompson, Dew into their teams. Its only round 2 guys the only reasons you should need to trade are for injury, suspension or if 1 of your cash cows isnt playing and there is another like Geary, Hill or Palmer that you think will be worthwhile the trade because of the cash they make

 

[happy_eagle]

far out

no one decent at dews price, and i already have hill

 

[Kid A]

2019 this week and I'm thinking of ONE trade this coming week -- Bradshaw to Hill. i can't justify any other trades. I haven't used any yet. Here's my team; if any of you can spot a better trade I'd like to hear it but I can't see any.

Chad Cornes, Shaw, Waters, Johncock
Symes, Ellis, Nicoski (SD Thompson, Proud)

Cross, Johnstone, Stevens, Griffen
Dyson, Palmer (Bird, Coughlan)

Cox, Simmonds (Kreuzer, Meesen)

Pavlich, Johnson, Hall, Deledio
Porplyzia, Bradshaw (Tippett, Rioli)

Of course if dyson/palmer/bird aren't named that will mess things up but I think all three should play next week and at least two of them should be playing most weeks for the rest of the season. Moreover Cogs comes back soon so that's handy. Cogs --> Tuck I think is not quite worth it if Cogs is named.

 

[donbooger]

Anyone watch the north richmond game i notice N Thompson got a low score did he play poorly or did he get poor delivery?

 

[Delroy]

1610 Oh well not going to be the norm I hope

Below par from BJ captain, Cornes, Birchal, Raines, Waters, S. Fisher, Drummond, Judd, Kornes, Kosi, N. Thompson lowish my fault for getting a FF, and Dew

 

[fjm9]

1936 for me.

I've been pretty disappointed with Edwards as well. I would have thought that Thompson coming back would free him up a bit, but minus a 50 point last quarter last week he hasn't shown much.

i'll assume you have cyril rioli

do you have ryan gamble?

after todays performance you should consider him

 

[Benno_900]

Picked him because I thought he'd play a bit of a ROK role. But it seems Jones/Grant are the ones moving up the ground while Azza stays deep. He may have a couple of 100s but generally won't be great for DT if he keeps playing that deep.

Anyone watch the north richmond game i notice N Thompson got a low score did he play poorly or did he get poor delivery?

Went through the smaller forwards more. Jones/Grant/Campbell scored about 15 goals between them.

I think we suffered a bit from being too one-dimensional last week and going through Thommo all the time. We will have a bit more variety in the delivery to forwards from now on which means Thommo's DT scores could decrease.

 

[blues4flag]

1782 - disappointing, but with Brown (66) as captain and Kosi scoring 24 (who'll be out for Hill), it could have been worse.

 

[Big_Tazz]

2059 this week Happy with this score and happy i stopped myself from doing any silly trades this week
Guess my team had a bad week last week when i scored 1687. Special thanks to Robert Murphy

 

[Swan4Brownlow]

Whos scores are more reliable, the ones on fanfooty of the ones the AFl puts on the field where they count your score for you? Up untill todays games i had a 21 point difference in the 2... 21 extra points on fanfooty...

Thanks mate

Far out, how am i supposed to trade Dew

there is no one around his price.

I suppose i could just keep him in for 4 odd weeks

i already have hill
