SC & DT Notes: Geelong VS Richmond
March 7th 2008 13:41
So we know where Richmond are heading for 2008, but what does it mean for Dream Team and Super Coach?
Today I attended the game with one aim, and one aim only. To find out who could be possibilities for your teams in 2008.
As expected Geelong were overwhelming victors, but many surprises were in stall for the day.
Geelong Notes are as follows:
Positives:
Harry Taylor - A must have for both forms of the game. Picked up quality touches while holding Richo goalless for 3 Quarters. Will be a lock while Egan is injured.
Andrew Mackie - Is still playing the link man, however he is pushing closer to goal. Expect him to score much more this season in that category.
Trent West - Has showed he will be Geelong's next athletic midfielder. Mark Blake may be fighting hard to keep his spot at the end of the year. West covered the ground well and picked up lots of touches for a bloke who hasn't played yet.
Ryan Gamble - Looks like a lock for round 1. Kicked 3 goals to back up his 5 goal haul the week before. If he doesn't play early look to get him on your bench later in the year. WILL play games.
Brent Prismal - MASSIVE ball winner. Not sure if he will play Round 1, but if he does must be given a look in.
James Kelly - Has improved out of sight. Is going to be an elite player this year. Excellent Price to!
Negatives:
Paul Chapman - Doesn't look like he has hit full fitness yet. Hold off till his price drops.
Brad Ottens - Didn't play AGAIN. Won't be match fit, keep away for now.
Mark Blake - Avoid like AIDS.
Shannon Byrnes - He STILL can't kick, and may not play games. Please keep away
Finally for Richmond. Please note there aren't as many positives as Geelong.
Positives:
Richard Tambling - Played one of the best games i have seen him play. May be worth considering as a cheap option on the ground.
Joel Bowden - One thing is for sure. The ball will be coming down a lot this year. It means Joel will get heaps of it.
Nathan Foley - Has improved again. Looks like he has improved his disposal as well.
Matthew Richardson - Richmond may be getting flogged but there is one thing for sure. Richo will be playing his heart out. Exactly what you want.
Troy Simmonds - Looks 100% and will be a great performer.
Negatives:
Nathan Brown - Looked lost out there today. Would want a big reversal of form to score what you need him to.
Jordan McMahon - Might be ok at Dream Team, but do not select him for Super Coach. He will kill you with his turn overs.
Other Richmond Forwards - This year will be a struggle for the Tigers forwards. Best to look at other teams who will have a better and more constant supply.
Mark Coughlan - Positive is that he got through ok. Negative is that he is far away from his best.
Well guys, i hope that helps. Stay tuned for more Dream Team and Super Coach guides!!
