I’ve done this in the past and I thought that now would be a great time after seeing each team play once. This is a long way from being ‘the best’ team we could make from the NAB Challenge matches so far, but it’s a starting point.
There are plenty of blokes here that I definitely wouldn’t pick for this year (and plenty I definitely will that aren’t listed), but most of them have a strong case for selection. At the very least, this team can show you some of the rookies and midpricers who have stepped up over the last nine days. For the record, there is $92,400 in the bank.
Feel free to post your ‘hype teams’ in the comments and discuss hyped up players, too!

defence is the best possible (pre-Sydney derby)
surely SJ gets in over Pendles
and then Trengove over Beams
Minson over McEvoy in the ruck department
Impey over Rohan,
Cripps over Howlett
note: my judgements are made based on ton scorers by points per TOG (pre-Sydney game, haven’t updated TMitchell)
Pedantic much?
The whole idea of this is to show that people get sucked in by the hype of players in the NAB and it ends up compromising their team.
For the sake of playing along, I have (for now) 11 of these players in my side ATM.
it says feel free to discuss other players
I’m merely providing some other players that have scored relatively well (instead of options listed here)
wow i have 17
that defensive line is worth considering
I wouldnt touch cam guthrie with your d##k
Agreed sphincter, played in the middle in the absense of Selwood.
I hate articles like this, it draws attention to my sneaky uniques :p
+1 glad parker isnt in here
…unique possibly….sneaky, as in not being considered, doubt it.
perhaps not sneaky, but I mean they were originally my idea. I’ve had guys like Zeibell and Gunston earmarked since last year. They are good picks made off my own bat, and now the sheep are getting on.
sux… such is life..
Ah the temptation to make a team with absolutely no hype players…..
Dahlhaus isn’t a bad thought. What are people’s thoughts on him? His not gonna set da world on fire but is a good starting option
Hey all got spots in a supercoach draft league tonight. 5pm Perth time. League code 198453
Sorry bout posting on wrong forum just this one is the better
Ziebell had 12 tackles, or dal santo who is cheaper?
Ziebell could very well burn you. Suspensions, injuries, and just so inconsistent. A wait and see for me with so many mid options. :)
