Hi and welcome to the second H&A edition of the Fantasy Freako’s rave for 2012. Regardless of how you’re faring after two rounds, this is the week to offload the underperformers and snap up those boom cash cows you’ve missed out on. If you’ve nailed your side and have all cash cows playing and scor-ing well, then there’s no need to trade just for the sake of it. Conserve your trades and use them only when needed.

Good luck to all coaches for the upcoming round in what will be the first of the head-to-head rounds for the year.

There was a massive emphasis on DPP’s last season and understandably so considering that teams had a bye(s) every round. Our reliance on them isn’t as great this year, but we’ll still have to call upon them during the multi team byes in Rounds 11-13. Picking them strategically is therefore important, making sure that you have reciprocal players in other positions to swap them with. There is no right or wrong amount to have in your side, so don’t make it your sole focus in your selection process.

Looking at the best performers so far this season, it’s Brendon Goddard that leads the way averaging 119 DT points per match – 23 points up on his 2011 return. He was poor by his standards last season and as a result many coaches would have dropped off, and if you’re one of them, do yourself a favour and bring him in this week.

Brett Deledio is another player that has started strongly, scoring 90 and 140 DT points from his two appearances. A move back into the midfield will no doubt help his scoring, with his average of 116 points up from 91 last year. He’s won 82% of his disposals in the midfield, which is a 14% increase from his return in his previous two seasons. One player that has snuck under the radar is Jordan Lewis. Fewer than 4% of coaches have him despite his newly accredited DPP status. He’s been a reliable scorer since his debut season in 2005, averaging 84 DT points per match.

DUAL POSITION PLAYERS (DPP’S)

THE MAGNETS HAVE ARRIVED

As soon as James Magner was drafted I had a suspicion that he would be the best rookie we have seen since Michael Barlow. I have since been duly justified. “The Magnet” as he is referred to definitely lives up to his nickname, amassing a combined 209 DT points – the second-most of any debutant in his first two games behind that man Barlow. He’s now become Melbourne’s No.1 midfielder, leading the club for disposals, kicks and handballs and ranking equal-second for tackles.

Newcomers Greater Western Sydney have unearthed 17 debutants so far this season, one of which is another ball magnet in Toby Greene. His start has been somewhat overshadowed by Magner’s meteoric rise, but he’s been just as good, scoring a combined 206 points. Teammate Adam Kennedy also features, courtesy of his 116 points on debut against the Swans – the fourth-highest score by any debutant since 1999. He backed that up with another solid 72 points last week and will be a popular inclusion for coaches this round.

Thompson ranks second in the league for disposals after the first two rounds, as he did at the end of last season. With Adelaide’s attractive draw, he was always going to be one of the safest bets in the midfield.

SCOTT THOMPSON RORY SLOANE

With scores of 125 and 105 DT points from his first two games, his price will rise considerably after this round. A good choice at his price.

ADELAIDE

FantasyFreako

@FantasyFreako - The Crows are the only side that is yet to taste defeat this year. They face their greatest test this week against the Hawks, a team they’ve lost three of the past four games against.

BRISBANE LIONS

It looks like Golby will be used in a lock down role in defence this year, which won’t do much for his scoring. As a mid-pricer, you can either trade him down to a rookie, or alternatively if you have the cash just bring in a premium.

MITCH GOLBY JARED POLEC

The punt on Polec hasn’t paid off. Trading him out for a rookie is the best option here.

Brisbane Lions AFL Dream Team Points

@FantasyFreako - Tom Rockliff’s 61 DT points last round was his fifth-lowest score on record. Expect him to bounce back this week.

CARLTON

You know what you get with Murphy each week, which is his greatest appeal. With scores of 116 and 115 DT points from his first two games, his consistency is remarkable.

MARC MURPHY KANE LUCAS

Lucas definitely has to go. He scored a sub affected 39 DT points in Round 1 and could only manage 62 points last week despite playing a full game.

Yagmoor was always going to be poor pick, despite playing in the open-ing round of the year. His chances will be limited, so trade him out for another rookie that is actually playing.

PETER YAGMOOR HEATH SHAW

Although there are plenty of coaches that will pull the trigger and dump Shaw this week, I’ll stick with him despite his expected price drop. He’s averaged 85 DT points per match between 2006-11 and is a proven scorer.

Stanton ranks second in the league for DT points scored behind Gary Ablett after the first two rounds. He is the ultimate Dream Teamer, but very few coaches seem to agree based on his current ownership.

BRENT STANTON PATRICK RYDER

Essendon has opted against playing the three ruckman, which has seen Patrick Ryder’s scores go through the roof! He’s scored the most points of any ruckman in the AFL – ranking seventh among all players.

FREMANTLE

The early consensus is that Broughton may have played his last game for the 13% of coaches that currently have him. The role he’s playing at the moment isn’t conducive to high scoring, but that can always change.

GREG BROUGHTON MICHAEL BARLOW

Barlow’s price will drop considerably after two sub affected scores (approximate breakeven of 192 points this week). We know how good this bloke is, so pounce after Round 3 if you’re looking at replacing or upgrading one of your midfielders.

The Hunt experiment has failed again, despite showing plenty of promise during the pre-season in his new role. He has to be traded out.

KARMICHAEL HUNT GARY ABLETT

There’s not much more we can say about Ablett, except that he looks to be on track for a career-best season. Don’t miss the ride and jump on now!

GREATER WESTERN SYDNEY

It you went for Sam Darley instead of Bugg at the start of the year then you’ve made the wrong call. The latter has been impressive so far with 97 and 57 DT points in the opening two rounds.

TOMAS BUGG JONATHAN GILES

Giles has made the one-three ruck combo a huge success this season. He has shown that he is a capable scorer at the elite level, but the only unknown at the moment is how he’ll fare once Dean Brogan eventually comes in.

McCarthy has grabbed his opportunity at the Power. He ranks fourth at the club for DT points scored and could end up being a keeper as your sixth midfielder.

With a game against the Giants this week, Cox could score anything. He racked up 145 DT points against new comers Gold Coast in his only game against the newcomers last season.

DEAN COx ANDREW EMBLEY

If you’re one of the very few coaches that has Embley, then he has to be traded out. He’s suffered another shoulder injury and is expected to spend up to 12 weeks on the sidelines.

WESTERN BULLDOGS

Dickson has had very little impact in the first two rounds, having a shocker in the season opener and returning a sub affected score last week. Terry Milera looks to be the perfect replacement.

TORY DICKSON RYAN HARGRAVE

Hargrave looks to be over the injury problems that plagued him last season. He’s way too cheap to ignore based on his scoring potential.
