AFL Teams 2015: Round 18

Its Round 18, finals are just around the corner, teams are starting to become complete for some teams. In the limited trade RDT and supercoach people are starting to find they don’t have many trades left. Gaz, is out, just when everyone thought the legend was back to form. Nat Fyfe is also a big out we already knew about. There are 29 changes to Fri / Sat teams and 10 confirmed outs so far for Sunday squads.

Fantasy Relevant Omissions :

Matthew Suckling (Hamstring Soreness) – Some may have down back, time to move on.
Zak Jones (Omitted) – Rookie who didnt make the cut.
Adam Goodes (Personal leave) – Not really Dt relevant this year, lets hope this isnt the last we see of the champ.
Gary Ablett (Knee) – *sigh*
Michael Rischitelli (Personal Reasons) – another big out for the Suns.
Devon Smith (Knee) – POD forward option, time to look elsewhere.
Clancee Pearce (Omitted) – Surely after recent in and out people wouldnt still have him?
Nick Riewoldt (Calf Soreness) – Really went out of his way to play last week, there was always a good chance of resting this week.
Nat Fyfe (Groin) – as we knew about all week, huge out for Freo.
Shaun McKernan (Omitted) – Giles is in, not a good sign for owners
Adam Oxley (Rested) – Very frustrating for those who kept him.

Fantasy Relevant Inclusions :

Liam Shiels – POD for hawks
Dayne Beams, Pearce Hanley – Huge ins for Brissy
Taylor Adams – Back from time on the sidelines. On recent form has to be considered a an upgrade option.
Lance Franklin – Buddy is back.
Daniel McKenzie – RDT relevent rookie back in.
Jonathan Giles – gets a run for bombers, not likely very DT relevant, but bad sign for McKernan owners.
Adam Saad and Tom Nicholls back to relief of those who still have them.

New Rookies :

*crickets*, yep, its that time of the year.

Read Jeppa’s Juniors to see whats around.

Clem Smith (mid) is in for carlton, but he hasnt been too exciting. Similar can be said about Alex Neal-Bullen (mid/fwd) for dee. Nakia Cockatoo is rookie priced but actually lost value. Pass.

Nathan Wilson, Andrew Phillips from GWS are rookie priced but Sunday listed.

Lachie Weller, Ed Langdon, Connor Blakely are Sunday listed new players for Freo. They all could be omitted.

Other Thoughts :

Adam Goodes has been given extended leave from the club and will not play this weekend: http://t.co/nzWyGyro6L pic.twitter.com/y6fj2pXFlp

Love him or hate him, Adam Goodes is a Legend of AFL.
Winning two brownlow medals, been involved in two premierships, one of which as a captain. He was the AFL rising star, all Australian four times, best and fairest at Sydney three times.
There were quite a few years where Goodes was a must have forward in DT.

It will be a dying shame if he feels forced to retire under these circumstances.

I’m personally looking forward to the positive responses of other AFL players and fans this weekend.

On a personal note this will be my last Teamsheet for the year (I’m going to Europe for a holiday for rest of season). I’ve loved doing this and see you next year (apart from occasional comment maybe haha) – Shags
