AFL Dream Team 2007

[Hard Ball Get]

This bloke.
<<<<<<<<
I think will have a b/e of about 192, heres hoping for an average game.

You want a bloke who playes for the team you support to play shit?

 

[KnockOut]

what do u think

traded cooney for goodes...
gilbee for birchall?
murphy for shaun burgoyne/young/deledio?
kerr for hodge/power/harvey?
betts for waite?
mcmahon for newman/gram(injured)/lappin/corey jones/hunt/rooke/gillham/mattner

Bugger went out to 1739, my team has been junk since i started to upgrade it! Havent had a really good score since i have got all the guns in, needs Chapman back...and to get rid of Fiora!

You said "guns" and "Fiora" in the same sentence?

 

[8.8.56 Brother!]

What are people's thoughts on Mitch Morton? Haven't really seen much of him except his scores. Is it possible for him to keep his spot in the side...?
At least until Embley comes back? I am assuming this is who he is replacing. Was thinking about cashing in Selwood. But not sure, as he seems to be travelling along quite nicely. Pretty consistant and could be an okay emergency all year round

 

[Waverley73]

hehe - although they weren't mentioned next to each other. That would be really worrying..

 

[Ramrod]

to upgrade foley or not?? options include

bruce $375k
goodwin $360k
james mcdonald $358k
luke power $330k

i could do the foley to bruce trade which would still leave me enough money to upgrade hudson to jeff white or dean cox? or is the ruck department not worth it at the moment with no real standout guns

power and cox

Round 7 Pavlich 41
Round 8 O'Keefe 37

Can anyone else pick the lowest scoring member of their teams to captain twice in a row?

Did I say twice? I meant three times.

Round 7 Pavlich 41
Round 8 O'Keefe 37
Round 9 McLeod 40

Unbelievable

He looked like a pretty easy 90 versus Carlton

try and make your marquee midfielders your captain. they are more likely to ton up than a defender averaging 80. for example, Lewis has been my captain the last six weeks

Unlucky mate.
What have your other captains scored though?
It is all about averages.
What is your captain average for the season?

 

[Just_ace]

im thinking oif trading davey for tredrea :O. Tredrea is sucking atm and still scoring 40 - 50 where davey is playing good footy and only getting 50. this could bite me in the ass but it could pay off big time if tredrea finds some form @ 200k his a bargin. what yas think?

Horrible trade. Tredrea doesnt look like playing well. You should be bringing in current guns. Have a look at hall, lucas o'keefe brown pav etc

Yep - Kane Cornes captain since day 1.

 

[BIGANT]

Trading Alwyn Davey >> R'OK/Lucas
Tough decision WHO'S the better choice !?!?

i'd say lucas, but we are playing the swannies this week, therefore i think okeefe will play the better game, but lucas will be better in the long term

 

[Madness]

I meant DT wish champ. He is my favourite player quite obviously, and I love seeing him play well, but he can still play well and scrounge up a 60 on the off chance. Do people realise that he scored 104, with 56% game time with very little match fitness? What a freak...

He could, played a fair bit in the midfield and on the ball against the hawks, but I'd be wary that he would more than likely move back to the forward line when Kerr returns

 

[Captain Pump]

After coming in the top 500 in the comp for the first 5 weeks a massive form slump has me getting 1600's-1700's for the last month.

Shaw, Gilbee and Mcmahon have been disappointments out of the back half.
Cooney, Murphy and Kerr in the middle.
Fev, Franklin, Davey, Nablett and Betts up forward.

Looking to trade 2 of those disappointments this week as i have 18 trades left.

Cooney for BURGOYNE, Shaun
Cooney for GOODES, Adam (BASICALLY ANYONE UNDER 310,000)

Whoelse in my disappointments would you trade and who for, got an extra 10k in the bank. Adivce through PM would be greatly appreciated.

I would get rid of as many of those forwards as possible. Starting with Franklin.

Havent checked but you could probably afford Ben Johnson this week for Cooney. He has been average so far but i reckon he will come good. Bottomed out now i would say.

Your backs are OK, just having a rough trot. They will be good long term.

Rd 1 J.Carr 114
Rd 2 J.Carr 60
Rd 3 L.Hodge 92
Rd 4 L.Hodge 109
Rd 5 R.O'Keefe 78
Rd 6 L.Gilbee 61
Rd 7 M.Pavlich 41
Rd 8 R.O'Keefe 37
Rd 9 A.McLeod 40
Average 70.22

Unfortunately I don't have a marquee midfielder so I can't take that route

 

[BIGANT]

i'd say lucas, but we are playing the swannies this week, therefore i think okeefe will play the better game, but lucas will be better in the long term

It is a tough choice, very similar players when you look at it RO'K is just in front around ground but Lucas is just as damaging in front of goal....

[BIG FAT BOB]

This week I am only considering this trade.

Out: Franklin In: Jonathon Brown.

Franklin's value is set to plummet, and if he scores poo again this week he could soon be back to his original price or even lower.
But then he's the sort of Player who could come out and bag ten the day after you trade him.
Jonathon Brown has been good without being great, and a big bag is probably just around the corner, maybe against the tiges this week.
If I don't trade Buddy this week then I probably have to keep him for another five weeks at least. But with 9 trades left and 13 rounds to go TRADES ARE PRECIOUS

Should I Show Buddy the faith or the Ass? Vote now.
