AFL - Round 1 discussion - (and live scores)

[Squids]

He slowed down towards the end of last year, even you can admit that REB. Average was inflated by smashing GC and GWS and has been going on a downward trend.

Add to that he isn't getting any younger.


Time to move on to some young blood imo.

Didn't even play against GWS. Averaged over 100 against Adelaide, Hawthorn and Sydney. 3 Tons in his last five matches. Next please.

[stan]

Should be a good game tonight. Just a thought about Warnock. Not selected and it looks like Rowe is in front of him so where does that leave him? Fourth inline it seems.

[valleys07]

Very surprised Vlastuin didnt make the side.

LOL. Must be going colour blind. I was going on the Tooserious site and didn't notice the GWS colours in chappy's scores. He had a low score of 67 over the last five weeks which isn't great but remember that Chappy isn't a midfielder. I'm sticking with the Bald man and a comment against him will never go through to the keeper.

Hey I told you I was colour blind!

Not really. They've recruited Chaplin and in the last few years they've brought quite a few young backmen through in Bachelor, Ellis and Morris. In the mids they've got Cotchin, Deledio, Newman, Martin, Tuck and others rotating through there so he's well down in the depth charts in Defence and in Mids.

This is a good sign for the Tigers that a promising player such as Vlastuin didn't get a gig straight up and that finally there is some depth in Tiger colours.

Yeah looking at that I probably underestimated the depth that the tigers have.

I would have thought Vlastuin would have been selected over Batchelor, however im sure that he will be brought in early in the season if the Tiges get off to a shaky start.

Oh well- for SC, Stevenson gets the nod!

Okay in Blue

I still think Richmond will win though. If Carlton win Hardwick should be sacked tonight.

Harsh on the Trossman to be in the spud category. Could argue he is a lot better player than Henderson.

[Q.]

**** being colourblind, the red and the green look the same.

[Squids]

You are right, Henderson should be red.


Also I am annoyed Newman is selected at CHB. I picked him in the supercoach draft because he said he was going to be playing on the wing this season. What a lier!. He deserves to be red too.

Shane Edwards has been named @ CHF.

Somehow I dont think either of these said players will line up in their named positions.

[BZB27]

Im hoping that Ellis isnt the sub tonight he is in my starting 18, expecting big things from him this season.

A strange selection from a fantasy point of view. You pay over 300k for a guy who won't average enough to be a keeper. Yeah he should vest up less but you won't make 200k on Ellis for mine. Meanwhile, Goodes who is only 128ks could average something similiar, maybe a little less and earn you 300k.

However, if Ellis tons up regularly you've picked a winner.
