Player power: AFLPA 2010 smokies

The AFLPA has entered the realm of fantasy footy punditry, with several players recording video predictions.

Jared Rivers, Marc Murphy, Angus Graham, Nathan Jones, David Ellard and Brad Miller offer up their smokie Dream Team picks, with a fair few of them nominating team mates. This was done under the auspices of the AFL Players Association.

The AFLPA is also giving away two double passes to the ANZAC game on Sunday. To participate, go to the AFLPA Facebook page.

This is not the first time that AFL players have got behind the official Dream Team comp with videos, of course. Last year the DreamTeamAFL account on YouTube published a string of “pick me” videos from the likes of Brendan Fevola, Campbell Brown, Adam Selwood and Matthew Richardson.

For those looking for regular video podcasts about Australian fantasy football, the biggest and best remains DT Talk. Then if you like your comedy a bit more adult, there’s Alex’s Sweet Dream Team, where the gags fly faster than the swear words, but only just! A recent entry this year is Peanut Gallery Footy, taking up the slack from where Footy Tragic left off with their discontinued video show.
