Well Ruffles, I may have gone a bit heavy on Dees players at the moment - mainly b/c we have been hearing how well they have been training. Apart from the obvious Petracca, I have Gawn in the Ruck and M King on the bench - not sure which one but doesn't matter just needed a RCK/FWD. I also have Kennedy in the FWD and Hulett on the bench (just thinking he maybe a smoky to make the starting line up (but can change depending on Round 1 teams). I have also had in TMac and Frost but they are out for now. FITB - do you have or have you considered Bird and Simpkin? Cheap and could score well. I don't see them as keepers but should earn some money and allow for a step up to a premium. My 2 cents..

Confirming (and happy to help out again if needed...)

You hopefully already knew - but I'll be in again (Captain Chunky).

Yep he should have come on as the sub. Couldn't done any worse...

Still think PJ was/is more important. He was the one that persisted and got Roos. Just my thoughts...

Peter Jackson for another year! http://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/2015-05-09/jackson-commits-for-2016 More important than a number of the players!

Hi guys, Just a league to join if you want some good competition. SCS Demons League - 106310 This is a league I have started up within the Supercoach Scores Forum - a great source of info for Supercoach. While not compulsory, I encourage you to sign up to SCS and join in conversations if you do join the league. www.supercoachscores.com Have a great comp everyone and - GO DEES!!! Cheers, S.

Hi All, Well it's only a few days to go! We have a number of spots left in our Tridents league left for those who want to join. Please head over to http://afldreamteam....lsports.com.au/ and either register or sign in again if you haven't already. As you go through the initial signing in process, you are asked if want to join a league. At this stage enter the code - 773912. Or if you have already signed in for 2015, go to Leagues and then click on Create/Join and then click on “I was invited to join League” and then enter 773912. Best of luck with the comp – but more importantly… Go Dees!!! Stephen247 (aka – “Captain Chunky”)

Hi All, If you haven't received a PM yet - please let me know. I Have had a few pull out so we will be looking to fill up the Tridents with extras - so let me know if you want to join. Can everyone please check their PM as let me know when you have joined and also your DreamTeam team name. Many thanks. S.

PMs sent out for the Trident league.

Was there today and had a great time. My two daughters (17 & 19) absolutely loved getting pics and talking with the players. 19yo has a big crush on JKH and got a few pics. Very well done to MFC and also to the greater majority of the players. One or two seamed disinterested but most were thrilled to be able to meet and talk with the kids (and older teenagers!). O'Mac was also brilliant and willing to engage. Another fantastic day. As I said - very well done to the MFC and player for being totally involved.

Hi Red & Blue Forever, Unfortunately I have been waiting for people to join the Legends league. I may have to start the other leagues and look at promoting if others fail to join. I'll give it to the end of the weekend and then send out invites for the Trident League.

Hi all, Apologies for the delay for those who have registered and not received a league code via PM. I am just waiting on some people to confirm if they want to join in again this year. Hopefully we can finalise the "Legends" league soon and then start filling the Trident League. And whilst we will finally start to see some footy action in a couple of days, it's still over a month away to the REAL stuff!!! So still plenty of time to go...

Hi all, I just wanted to remind everyone that there are a couple of competitions running for both Supercoach and Dreamteam. These threads are in the Fantasy Footy Forum Head over to register your interest in joining a league. Would love to have as many 'Landers as possible.

Thanks McQ. 12 now entered - just needing the other 6 to confirm and we can progress with Tridents. Cheers, S.

Hi All Things are going well as we now have 11 teams registered for the Legends league. I need to get this finalised and then I can start getting the other leagues going... However can I please get a couple of people to confirm their team names Prince of Melbourne Howe's Hogan Also, can Hannibal please PM me for the league code as I wasn't able to send a PM to you (either you have disabled it or your inbox is full). And don't forget to join the DT Group ad DeeVoted mentioned above. Many thanks!

Hi all, League invites have been sent to the above teams. Please check your PMs and join the league as soon as you can - as please reply via PM when you have joined. Hannibal and Evans Above please PM me and let me know as my messages couldn't get to you - then I can pass on the league code. For all other who have registered, please be patient as we finalise the Legends league and then we will get on to Trident and Redlegs leagues. If you were in a league last year and still haven't confirmed your interest for 2015 - please post hear to let me know. Also if you weren't in a league last year and want to join this year - again post so I can add you to the list. Good luck to everyone - and Go Dees! Cheers, S.

Hi All AFL Fantasy has opened. And not trying to derail the official DL comp but I have just started a league on AFL Fantasy. They are offering a Free AFL Live Pass to Coaches who start a league and get it filled before a certain date. If anyone would like to join a league prior to the official DL league here is the Invitation Code 9F9L5VUH Also I hope to be helping DV with the Official DL Dream Team league codes over the coming weeks - so look out for those in your PMs Cheers, S.

I suppose I had better confirm myself as a starter, DV! And another vote for RDT (but I'll probably have a team in the other one as well...).

Well done DV. Never too early to get started (says he that was going over his SC side this morning!!!). Can't Wait!!! If there are any other diehards that already want to get started - I have a spreadsheet for selecting teams with expected prices and positioning. Let me know and I can send it thru. Cheers, Stephen

I was only 57 days old - so happy soiling nappies and blissfully unaware...

Many thanks for coordinating all of this DV. Brilliant Job!!!! Best of luck - and same to all other Coaches. Hope its competitive - just like the might Dees this year!!!

Unfortunately, after the game last week, I too have loaded up my team with MFC players! Yes its a cardinal sin of SC but at some time Melb have to become SC relevant and have our players score well - and consistently. And with PR's game plane (yes we have only seen it competitively in one game) the high possession style he has them playing means that the likes of Watts, Tyson, Toumpas, Trengrove, Michie, etc are now viable options to at least make some money if they don't stay in your team for the season. For the record (at the moment, that is...) I have Watts, Georgiou*, Tyson, and JKH in my team. But Jack Martin could easily become Toumpas and any other mid rookie could become Michie and I have had Grimes in my backline at various stages. Yes, I was burnt by Watts last year as well so I struggled to put him in - but sometime it has to click for him. (But I am also starting to question my sanity b/c I also have Shaun Higgins in my forwards!!! ). * Assuming he gets elevated and plays round 1

Absolutely love it!!! But no Neitz?!?!?!

Yep Roosy was on stage for a chat (I think about just before 10:30) with Robbo. It was a good day despite the weather and my older teenage girls really enjoyed themselves. I think JKH has won a couple of hearts!!!
