Dreamin Grinder, that spot is already allocated to Sean's Prawns. :

You are dreamin' grinder. Not if coach Lambeau Fields has anything to say about it. He thinks The Comebacks can beat anyone!

Re: ASF Super Coach

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???
 
Re: ASF Super Coach


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 ...
 
Re: ASF Super Coach


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?
 
Re: ASF Super Coach

I'm looking forward to seeing the lions premiers '10 ahh its going to be a good good year indeed.

Re: ASF Super Coach


Hi Kennas

I thought I joined with Duckman's Nuts.

But I could have done the application wrong. They've given me a team anyway!! Don't know in what comp.

Nice try GL. The club captain thing is a complete red herring - you were clearly talking about captains in the fantasy sense in your original post, so admit it and move on.

And I think Ablett is overpriced. He'll need to keep a 140 ave to stay there, and I'm not sure he can.
 
Re: ASF Super Coach


Jacobs Boys are mine.

and agree with Pivot. Ablett seems overpriced, the R/R doesn't measure up.
 
Re: ASF Super Coach

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.
 
Re: ASF Super Coach

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!!

Re: ASF Super Coach


No collusion/insider trading on my behalf. Wish I'd played Barlow in the 1st Round. Only had him as an emergency. Also, Morris of the bulldogs was a late withdrawal with the flu. Didn't help as I only played the first round with 21 men. Also, Petrie got rubbed out at the end of last season. So he wouldn't have played round 1 anyway. I wanted him as a Tall Forward/Ruck too. But you can't have them all.
 
Re: ASF Super Coach

Would've liked a better start also. Had a few players scoring nothin cause I was too slack to check whether they were named to play or not No excuses though
 
Re: ASF Super Coach


He was pretty good on Friday night, but didn't make his break even. Unless he pulls out a couple of bigger games than that against Hawthorn and whoever is after that, his price will be coming down nicely ... just in time for me to pick him up ...
