It was a thumping round of Dream Team this week. Most teams racked up big scores where 2300 looked to be about par. Looking down team lists, there were a lot of 110+ scores. A couple teams were affected by the vests and the late withdrawal of Steve Johnson. How did you fare?

DT Studs: Goodes, Cox, Voldt, Franklin, Pendles, Buckley,
DT Duds: Puopolo, Shiels, Enright, Sylvia
On the Chopping Block: None
Vent/Brag/Whatever: Had a good round up until Sunday arvo. Was looking like I would get close to 2500 until some normally reliable players (See Duds) failed miserably. I benched Gilbert for Buckley which paid off, but I expected much better from Puopolo against Melbourne only to be proven wrong… Overall rankings slipping away, now at 578th… Hopefuly a good week during this multi-bye will get me back up around the top 200. But everyone’s teams are pulling big scores now so it’ll be interesting to see how I finish up this year.

DT Duds: Rawlings, Heppell, Pavlich, Lower. Will forgive Pav & Lower (derby is always a tough game)
On the Chopping Block: Rawlings. Will depend on my eliminator matchup this week. Particularly frustrating to have Stanley on the bench.
Vent/Brag/Whatever: Ranked 75th overall. Still 4 trades and even with the multi-bye this week my team looks to be in pretty good shape. Let’s see what happens…

Well, as my lucky streak continues in round 18, I even finished the the week as the highest state winner, which will mean that I’ll win a synthetic football as well as an AFL certificate. Where can I claim the prize and will it be delivered to my home address?

For people thinking of dumping Rawlings (like me), Johncock is a smokey I am going to throw out there.
NO byes.
Chip kicks to himself tons of times when kicking in.
Before that injury against Essendon he was on 50 halfway through second qtr and the 5 games before that he averaged 85.6.
I think I am going to do that trade

Dropped 2000 spots? I don’t think that’s possible if you’re 575 for the week… I was 25,000th for the week and only went down 1000 spots.
Blue boys
July 25, 2011 at 11:36 am
Think you have miss read something mate. How can you get the 575 best score for the week and drop 2000 spots (it means only 574 scored better than you but SOMEHOW 2000 went past you).
IMPOSSIBLE!!!! :-)
Blue boys

July 25, 2011 at 10:52 am
I Know it isn’t Trade talk tuesday but I can’t wait to see if this is worth doing it…. I have 4 trades left for finals but only $20k… My plans are:
Trade Bartel to Mitchell when bartel has his bye… But I won”t have enough money! So im thinking to downgrade someone… Im thinking Hibberd down to Callianan? The I will have 179k in my piggy for the finals but 1 less trade… In my forwards im thinking to trade chappy to someone… leaving me 1 more trade to trade Heppell to Birchall or Broughton?
Well if I don’t downgrade Im going to have to diagonally downgrade Bartel to a shter player….
Please tell me more options or if I should do it or somthing like it… Cheers;)

Anyone starting to plan finals trades yet?
I’m assuming lots of people have Petrie, are you going to trade him or just stick him on the pine?
If I lose first week of finals I will probably trade SJ to Cloke or Lecras aswell.

I’m keeping Petrie (unless Sandi comes into contention) but I already traded A.Swallow to Monty and am considering Enright to Waters but probably not.

July 25, 2011 at 5:19 pm
For those who are interested –
I (KAZKAGE) will my hand up and organize this league. To qualify, teams must take a screenshot of their final team’s ranking (<1000) and send over email for code (activated when 2012 season open).
Being in the ultimate competitive league will make dt relevant and interesting all season (even if you are out of contention for the major prize)
Brappinalong
July 25, 2011 at 5:33 pm
