Hi fellow posters,

At this stage of the season I am looking to trade Brett Deledio for another high possesion midlefilder. Firstly I am after peoples opinions on if

(a) They would trade Deledio

(B) If so which of the following players would you trade him for

1 Chris Judd

2 Nick Dal Santo

3 Leigh Montagna

Opinions please

i've got deledio... considered trading him considering his poor start, but I'm going to stick fat... the tigers have had 2 of the 4 best sides in the comp thus far, and a carlton who played like they were a top 4 side in their match as well...

out of those 3, Judd or Dal Santo... Dal Santo doesn't need much of the footy to score well in supercoach... also considered our own Flash? going to rack up a lot of points across half back this year... been racking up around 120 a week in that position so far... I'm bleeding he's not in my side...

Trade him. He's not coping with the tag and will be the first tagged every week

Eg:

v Ling

v Kirk

v Rawlings

v Baker

v Dunn*

*= joke

Trade him for Bennell & bank the cash for later in the season.

I have a strong feeling Bennell is about to score some high numbers, he seems to be such a smooth mover

& has plenty of time. 6 games under his belt & he will be a star.

Assume you have Daniel Rich / Hayden Skipworth & Shaun Higgins

Smokey - : No. 7 for Swans think his name is Merideth - Looks the goods.

Yes I have all three of the above. I am a passionate Demons supporter and I had Brocky in there to start but he sucked in the first three games so I took him out. I have Judd, Thompson, Rich, Griffen MItchell. That is a pretty full midfield but they just dont seem to score consistently. I have a lot of big stars in my team which on paper through law of averages should be around the 2,200 mark each way. Considering over 22 players each week the standard deviation is around 6-8 it myfs me as to why I struggle to crack. 20000.

I feel in the case of specialist forwards a goal should count fora lot more than 8 points. Take Fevola for example he might only tough it 6 times a game.

The forwards you want in your side @ the moment are

FLASH

His Little brother

Nathan Krakeor

Danial Motlop

All raking up big numbers

Buddy, Pavolich & Riewaldt will all come into there own later in the season.

Fingers crossed a bloke named Watts might be some value in the back half of 09

oh I forgot to mention I have S Johnson as well as Higgins who can push into the midfield when required. The three you mentioned are spasmodic at times but brilliant when they are on. The question is really how long can they stay "on" for. In the case of flash he really has to stay red hot for us the have any drive and run out of defense because he is our link man. Krakour seems to have sublime skills and I feel his points come from the precision of his kicks. Now taking into account that he played you know who last week there must not have a great amount of pressure bought to bear on him. When this changes so to might his points. Daniel Motlop if he continues in the current vein could be the find of the season as far a small forwards go in super coach. However much like his compatriots of aboriginality in the AFL this seems to be a challenge. A dangerous forward he is, a consistent one he has not yet proven to be. Factor into this that he can be volatile and he may miss a few games through suspension. His avergae is 2 to 3 games per year.

What is going on with Buddy is that the supply is not there as yet and teams congest Hawthorns back half starving him of space. I agree that, once the hawks gain their star players back he will improve. I feel Paul Chapman is a better selection that Reiwoldt primarily because he is a goal kicking midfielder who can score points both for possessions gained din the midfield and the goals he kicks in the forward half. The great thing about Chapman is his kicking skills are almost unparalleled in terms of efficiency 80%. Only a few others, including Brian Lake 100% were better than him this week. he gained 35 touches which is unreal. Pavlich is in the same position as Riewoldt in that his coach has determined he can roam further from goals to gain higher possession and kick longer into the forward 50. However based on Freos current form he is confined to dual modalities. I even saw his in defense last week. Even so I have been waiting for him to go over the hundred mark in consecutive weeks. His last two efforts 96 and 105 tell me he may be on the rise.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
