Friday night is lock out for private leagues and tomorrow at 7:00pm EST is lockout for Carlton or Richmond selections.
I'd like to know if anyone did TA on Ablett. At $744,000, he seems expensive but as I see it if he averages the same points per game as 2009 and you use him as your captain he will double the average score (in excess of 100) earned by any other captain in the league. No wonder the Gold Coast want him.
Anyone???
Not sure what you're talking about here. If all players match their '09 scores, he would only outscore Swan or Montagna as captain by ~30 points per week (280 vs 250). Not a huge difference.
And fwiw, I am rather sceptical of his ability to maintain his superhuman 140 average ...
Swan and Montagna are not the actual captains of their teams outside of cyberspace. I meant Ablett would double the output or more for any bog performance compared to Riewoldt, Brent Harvey, Jonathon Brown etc..
As far as I know Ablett isn't captain of Geelong either?

Ablett avg performance 140 points (doubled to 280) is so hugely in excess of the average points of any existing AFL captain.Is he overpriced at $744,000 or a must selection?

Great work Pivotonian!!!! And you Lachlan and Gumby!!!
What is it with you guys - did you get together before hand? Barlow, Waters, Silvagni - why didn't you share the good oil with those of us from the east!!
I obviously stuffed up my application as I'm just in the overall comp.
I just managed to pip Kennas by about 5 points. A good workmate of mine looked over my team last week and as he is a keen Kangas supporter, I was annoyed that he didn't tell me about Petrie's broken ankle!!! Not a great start to have $480,000 sitting on the sideline!!

I will take Ablett at $744 000 (and I have) any day of the week. What an incredible player. I actually watched him go to ground on Friday night at the game (due to the sheer ferocity of the Bomber tackling of course). I can't remember too many other times this has happened.
