Good to see some people understand how forums work here!
Yeah Cizzler you make a good point, why buy a rookie that isn't guaranteed a spot.
I like Macaffer, he has a big strong body, but the competition for spots in the Pies forward line is huge, he would be the bottom of that list, with Dick being even lower.
I guess its Warren or nothing for me, might have to take a 0 this week for long term gain
Does anyone know if Ballantyne from freo is expected to play anywhere in the near future, or even this year. How's he traveling in the WAFL?
Firstly we dont let everyone create there own thread for their own dreamteam because we have around 5,000 DTer's who would clog up the forum. We have specific threads for this to keep all the questions in one place. Really rather than just asking a question in those threads answer someone elses. I will normally answer 1 or 2 above mine then ask mine. You get a lot better results by helping others then posing yours.
Secondly Ballantyne is Injured, why would he be playing in the WAFL? Im sure when hes fit he'll get the call up to the injury striken freo side. At the moment hes listed at 2 weeks but was expected to be back round 5ish so who knows.
Finally why buy a rookie whos not garenteed a spot? Because hes a rookie! For $86k you dont get job security you get a bargain. They are a rookie by nature their spot is always at risk with normally only 1-2 spots for rookies each week the competition is fierce to hold their spots. If you want job security spend $300k+
P.S. if you have a real hard time getting help read some threads, if someone who seems to have a clue helps others perhaps try PMing him. Most guys are happy to help someone outside their leagues and dont mind giving out some advice.
Also Sidebottom should probably make his debut when Malthouse gets the stones to drop barxham who was highly tipped to be dropped for his poor disposal in preference for Frontbum but it seems they will give him another chance.
