You know what I REALLY hate?

I just had a quick look at the Herald-Suns "pick your team in 10 minutes" piece, and I can go within one or two players of picking my team using their "quick-pick" guide!!!!! :mad:

Tell me about it.

Talk about spoon feeding...

I guess this is how cookie cutter teams come about. :mad::mad::mad:

To be fair, they have named basically all the fantasy relevant players (and some not, Rhyce Shaw :confused: ***) and there are still quite a few permutations within that guide.

Like it or hate it, it's very well done by whoever put it together.

I think you should be quite happy. You should beat all the people that have little idea and purely use that guide to pick their team anyway.

I'd be more worried about people luckily picking quality premiums and getting an advantage. Like picking Minson last year for instance when there didn't seem to be any indicators that he'd be a top 2 ruck.

Minson was predicted to be a top 2 Ruck? Wow. Good on the guy who wrote last year's piece then.

Okay guys/girls, I am really getting desperate. This is slightly off topic as it relates to Dream Team (AFL Fantasy).....

At the moment I have pretty much gone the same set up as my SC team:

D - 3-1-4
M - 4 (inc Beams)-0-6
R - 1-1-2
F - 3-3-2

So my question is, can I stack the mids more in DT as opposed to SC? Having two trades each week allows a bit more trading freedom so perhaps the cash generation with the mid rookies isn't as critical. What I mean is (and I may be looking at this completely wrong!), that you can trade rookies out earlier and build up the bank rather than conserving those trades and holding onto rookies longer like in SC. If the mids are stacked from the start then not as much cash will be needed for upgrading the defenders and forwards as they generally cost less for the top players in those positions.

Would really love some help with this as I am a DT virgin! Happy to PM as I don't want to "offend" anyone with DT discussions!!!:D

Apparently, everyone is wishing me 2nd place overall, so I'm wishing everyone first place...LOL

All the best everyone, goal is to get top 1000, you get the beautiful designed SCS medal made out Gold/Diamonds white (fake virtual gold)....

Good luck everyone. Here's hoping all the pre-season research and the advice pays off.

Damn I love the drama, stress and pot stirring that happens in the final few hours before the first SC game of the season - brilliant stuff!
