I wanted to write this post as one of my goals for 2011 to justify every pick I make in Dream Team. Mainly to avoid another Relton Roberts mistake of 2010. So here it goes. My team, player by player and why I picked them: Backline Goddard – He’s a DT lock in anyones team. [...]
Tag Archive: AFL Dream Team
Advice from Dream Team, M.D.
This time last year I posted a few Dream Team dos and don’ts to help the Dream Team novices lift their standards a bit. It’s well publicised that once again I blitzed all-comers in the Footy High league, but the crushing victories over my fellow bloggers were not as humiliating for them as they had [...]
This is the End
It’s been a massive footy season – so jam-packed with action they had to add an extra week, and bar the huge circle jerk that is trade week (please Vossy, just remain calm), it’s all over. From a team perspective, 2010 has been a bit of a fizzer. My Lions were ravaged by injury and [...]
A Huge Week In Footy!
It’s easy to get excited about the game when your team has a big win on the weekend and they don’t get much bigger than the Lions massive upset win over the Pies. After the Crows game I had all but written off our season, but thanks to that little nugget of football stardom Lukey [...]
Sunday Sunday Sunday!!!
Forget Saturday (Saturday Saturday!!), Sunday is here! There’s one season-shifting game on today. Let’s take a look at it… Hawks VS Swans 1.10 MCG For me the most anticipated match of the round and will have lots of questions answered such as – How much strife are the Swans really in? Was last weeks belting [...]
3 weeks is a buttload of time in football!
Well the old adage is that a week is a long time in footy, so three weeks is forever. From the 12th of April until Wednesday I found myself in the unenlightened land of the USA. Surrounded by baseball, basketball and American Football (That Roeslesthesticlesburger guy makes Fev seem like a saint!), I found it [...]
Value Bets Week, Baby!
There’s a ton of great value tips this round. Having just watched league teams on Fox I’ve made 4x $5er bets on the following games: Port to beat the Bombers by under 39 points @ $2.60 – Yes it’s in Melbourne, the only reason I can see why the bombers would be favourites. They beat [...]
Swans and Gangstarz – A message
So it seems Beno likes to pop in here only when his team or dreamteam is doing well. He’s talked up his Swans, he’s talked up his dreamteam, and to give him a bit of credit he’s talked the talk and walked to walk, so far. You see – both his beloved swans and his [...]
Round 1 Superpost
It Begins! Round 1 is done and dusted and footy proved to be well worth the wait, with the exception of Blues vs. Tiges (Seriously AFL, no one wants to see this shit, hide it away on Sunday afternoon sometime in the middle of the season, and kick things off with a grand final rematch!). [...]
Beno Breaks His Silence
Let me start of by saying big bad Barry Hall had a ripper of a game last night and single handedly won the Nab Cup for the dogs, while watching it with fellow bloggers Sarge and Matty P my prediction was that the Dogs will win and that the one and only Barry Hall will [...]
