wen will henderson play
Rorschach
April 2, 2009 at 11:13 pm
robinson to cover tuck and hopefully one out of hill and suban plays so i can avoid a zero >.<

Here is a litte on Tuck about his shoulder. They said a AC joint so a week, 2 at MAX.

Arrrrggggghhhh! Tuck, Beams, Anthony, Raines, Broughton, Henderson, Ballantyne all not playing!!!!!
I knew Ballantyne & Broughton were long term and I was prepared to gamble on them but injuries to Tuck, Raines & Anthony and the non inclusion of Henderson & Beams are really killing me.
Damn your eyes, Fantasy Footy Gods!

I’m not as badly affected as others as i have Cheney since start, but not much depth with Raines out. Will be relying on Cheyney getting a regular start and also have Hill and Rance, but am not confident either will get much of a run – especially Hill – he’s my biggest regret thus far, but will see how he does this week before punting him for a more solid option.
Am thinking Houlihan for Hill if he doesn’t perform half decent – whaddaya think?
craig
April 2, 2009 at 11:59 pm
I guess i’m happy with my trades…
Dropped Raines for Cheney, and Anthony out for Tuck… whatever… no more trades bar LTIs till round 7/8

Butler is a premiership player and HIGHLY regarded at West Coast. From my perspective they would be taking it really really easy with him so as to not risk him injuring his groin again.
I would be suprised if he wasn’t back into the team within a couple games.
Nick
April 3, 2009 at 12:34 am
Yeah im keeping both Raines and Butler.
Ill just trade Anthony to Robinson to bring in some much needed cash for upgrades, hopefully he holds his spot for at least another 4-5 weeks.

TRADE, TRADE, TRADE
You may as well bring kids in that are going to make you money, you will need it…… SUCKERS

April 3, 2009 at 1:14 am
any chance monty, can you list the new players under the ins and outs on these lists mate? the afl website does it, but i hate going to that site, but its the only thing i use it for.
craig
April 3, 2009 at 1:20 am
See i’m happy to burn 1 or 2 trades of the 20 on getting those players that you just weren’t sure about in the first 3 rounds.
E.g. cheney for raines is a fair swap. Cheney should keep his spot, go up in value etc. Whereas keeping raines it’ll take at least 5-6 weeks before he goes up in value… and even then you’re not sure if he’ll be straight back into the side.
Also people that took the punt on Anthony, as i did, would not be stupid in trading in a rookie/other player that actually IS playing and will go up in value. Cash cows are meant to play and go up in value, not just sit on your bench collecting 0’s cause they’re injured (unless they’re a $75k player because you were stupid and structured your team around 75k rookies so you could score another 100k in your 22)

Anyone know what is going on with Lachie Henderson at Brisbane? Seems to have dropped off the face of the earth, should we fule missing persons report?

For those with Scott Stevens, according to the Adelaide site he trained yesterday but had some hamstring soreness. So hopefully it’ll be similar to Scott Thompson, misses a week and plays Round 3
K-Man
April 3, 2009 at 3:26 am
craig im happy that you you are happy to burn your trades so early in the season. Thing is, there will be other injuries to key players, others who get dropped much to our surprise.. all of a sudden 1-2 trades turns into 4-5 by round 3. I have raines, anthony, but will wait a week to see how cheney goes, other players go. Will try and avoid a trade, but reckon the ones who are patient and resist temptation to replace 1 or 2 player early will be okay towards the end.

April 3, 2009 at 3:34 am
anyone reckon trading zeibell for dangerfeild is a good one to make this round?
craig
April 3, 2009 at 4:38 am
no taz. ziebell i reckon is more likely to keep his spot
Micabre
April 3, 2009 at 7:56 am
They are already talking JayZ may miss this week and Rodney is a definite
Azz
April 3, 2009 at 8:01 am
Defence has gone to pieces already!! Raines, Hurley injured, Broughton not named and S Hill a fair chance to miss on the extended bench. Could have 2 zeros this week
Roy
April 3, 2009 at 8:23 am
Raines is down but at least I get Heath Shaw back this week.
Ryan
April 3, 2009 at 10:03 am
Considering Raines to David Myers? what do People Think??? Bit more pricey But should hold his spot
hamish
April 3, 2009 at 11:08 am
i have cousins, raines, mcmahon, tuck, butler, stevens, ziebell(iffy), collier, stokes, browne(bench ruck) and hurley(bench back). so i think this week will go pretty well for me, im hoping a competitive score of say 1300? nah but i will make 2 trades and i dont even know where to start, i have to make them today… please help
oddsok
April 3, 2009 at 11:11 am
Hmm. I can cover my players so that I don’t get any zeros (Tuck-Robinson, Raines-Rance), but I will need one of Hill/Suban to play. That’s got to happen….doesn’t it?
chris
April 3, 2009 at 11:51 am
why would Harvey drop Hill after 1 game, against lets be honest, a likely top 4 side? Gotta give the kid time, and why not against a pretty poor Essendon team? I think Hill will play (well i hope he does)…
mog_dog00
April 3, 2009 at 11:56 am
hamish m8, u r in a world of ur own. I’d say swap cousins but the rest is up 2 u!
Raf
April 3, 2009 at 12:05 pm
I’m keeping Raines and Butler at least through this week. I don’t like trading on one week’s scores and selection changes (called it the Brennan Factor). I should have cover… if there’s a late back withdrawal, or if Hill doesn’t play, then I cop a donut. So be it. Rather have the extra week’s information than maybe an extra 40-50 points by trading this week.
Having Anthony on the bench is of course not helping.
Hayden Churchill
April 3, 2009 at 12:59 pm
i got off fairly lucky with only raines out this week and i have cover with patrenko goes on the field then suban emerengy and either him or hill will play. Plan on seeing how cheney does this week and will probs trade raines for cheney and make some money
Orbs
April 3, 2009 at 1:10 pm
Im actually starting to think as sad and pathetic as it is my purchase of 75k for Zac Dawson could be a great little coaching acquistion. I think if he dominates he will get me 50 points but i just about reckon with all saints injury woes he will play every week. Its a cheap 30-50 points every week.
Traded anthony for robinson.
Whats the deal with butler though. Has an awesome pre-season, is highly rated and then gets dropped after 1 bad game. Worsfold is a tool, he is trying to build a new side and importantly a new midfield and leaves out one of his best prospects after i game. Wat a DICK!

April 3, 2009 at 1:34 pm
Hey does anyone know how long simon buckley will be out for???
I managed to pick up 3 injuries this week with buckley, cousins and raines.
Don’t even know why i picked cousins, i knew his hamstrings would be a problem!
Chris
April 3, 2009 at 2:01 pm
Whats wrong with Stokes? Or is he rested/dropped?
the eagle
April 3, 2009 at 2:01 pm
hey orbs im in the same boat i got on dawson as silly as it sounds but least ull get 30-50 points a week least for 6-8 rounds and will rise in value in time for a upgrade….only got him because i wasnt sure on hill at the start
Chad
April 3, 2009 at 2:10 pm
Chris, team sheet says General Soreness (basically being rested)
brock
April 3, 2009 at 2:49 pm
Surely people have to look to early rounds and who you are playing in your league? I have to cover Raines, cousins and possibly Robert Murphy. Bad luck for me i have our league leader round 1 who scored 2300 odd, and other high scorers rounds 5 & 6. So for me trades are important, if your playing someone else struggling why waste early trades? As for my trades can cover raines i think but will trade Cousins before round 3. Anyone know how bad Murphy is?

What is wrong with our media fraternity,i as a Victorian am appalled at Ch7s decision of not streaming live the friday night game.
I am a firm believer that every Friday night game should be beamed live around the country.
Although most sites like this one, would prefer delayed telecasts, i am sure we as footy fans prefer to watch it live.
Another night with Monty.

@ rock n rolla your spot on, i just didnt make it as clear as it could of been..
@ Big Bad Burley get your dictionary out and look up at uses of the word manage… how could i plan to avoid injury, thats ridiculous.. i am sorry my eloquence wasnt up to scratch, i will try harder next time.
Chris
April 3, 2009 at 3:18 pm
Korza try being in WA, the friday game is generally over by the time it starts on tv, sucks, 7 won’t even put it live when a local side is playing because it ruins the ratings for better homes and gardens or some shit. Its bullshit
Brad
April 3, 2009 at 3:42 pm
Pendlebury didnt train with the main group and is in doubt to play.
Beams would surely be the replacement?
DIKAKAsss
April 3, 2009 at 5:26 pm
Anyone know if Sauban is going to play would be much appreciated! Knowing this will decide if I trade Raines or not?

I’m with u brad, beams is a chance thank god!
taz
April 3, 2009 at 6:52 pm
hill zeibell may miss, so might trade zeibell for dangerfeild then i can trade suckling for cheney. Or should i wait til things pan out next week??
Brad

Hill is in boys, there is a GOD!!

Does anyone have any information about Buckley’s injury? How long will he be out for?
LC
April 3, 2009 at 10:09 pm
Monty how about a timely announcement somewhere on the site each week about any late changes or that teams are as named for the first game of the round? Users trading in players for the first game can avoid Chapman 08 for example.

why is anyone thinking of trading anybody after only one round ??? you don’t win premierships in april 🙂
