Western Bulldogs
1. Jarrad Grant, 2. Robert Murphy, 3. Andrejs Everitt, 4. Daniel Cross, 5. Matthew Boyd, 7. Shaun Higgins, 8. Mitch Hahn, 9. Lindsay Gilbee, 10. Nathan Eagleton, 12. Tom Williams, 13. Daniel Giansiracusa, 14. Callan Ward, 15. Ben Hudson, 16 Ryan Griffen, 17. Adam Cooney, 20, Josh Hill, 21. Jason Akermanis, 22. Dylan Addison, 23. Jordan Roughead, 25. Ryan Hargrave, 27. Will Minson, 28. Barry Hall, 29. Easton Wood, 33. Tim Callan, 36. Brian Lake, 38. Dale Morris, 40. Jarrod Harbrow, 42. Liam Picken, 44. Brodie Moles.
What to watch for:
Tom Williams, could be a value for money fantasy pick. See who his opponent is here, he may not get a lot of stats if he is playing on Riewoldt but if he has a lesser forward to contend with he may provide more stats than his fantasy price.
Barry Hall has shown he is going to be good for fantasy teams when everything is going his way, but this could be an example of a game when the ball doesn't get to him as often or accurately. At Sydney in recent times, this could mean giving away frees and 50m penalties and really hurting fantasy teams.
Callan, Everitt and Roughead are cheap in fantasy AFL games. One of them might get into the round 1 team of the Bulldogs. Also watch Moles, a very cheap fantasy player.
St Kilda
1. Jason Gram, 2. Steven King, 4. Clint Jones, 5. Ben McEvoy, 6. Zac Dawson, 10. Steven Baker, 11. Leigh Montagna, 12. Nick Riewoldt, 13. Adam Schneider, 14. Jarryn Geary, 18. Brendon Goddard, 19. Sam Gilbert, 20. David Armitage, 21. Nick Heyne, 22. Farren Ray, 23. Justin Koschitzke, 25. Sam Fisher, 26. Nick Dal Santo, 27. Jason Blake, 28. Rhys Stanley, 29. Tom Lynch, 30. Brett Peake, 32. Andrew McQualter, 33. James Gwilt, 38. Will Johnson, 39. Alistair Smith, 44. Stephen Milne, 45. Luke Miles, 49. Steven Gaertner.
What to watch for:
David Armitage, he should be close to playing every game for the Saints and another solid performance here could mean fantasy coaches decide to pick him. He should be ahead of Geary, Peake, Heyne, Lynch and Gwilt on the St Kilda depth chart.
McEvoy would be expected to use this game to seal a spot in the St Kilda round 1 side, and maybe some fantasy teams.
Stanley, Lynch or Heyne could get games up forward in 2010 for the Saints. None of them could be playing in round 1, but watch to see which player has the potential to help the Saints, and fantasy teams, during the season.

Fantasy Ruckmen - On The Up
There is quite a lot of value in ruckmen this year. There are some that have been around a while and others that are new on the scene but will get plenty of opportunities to prove themselves.
Shane Mumford $242,900
He is at a new club and has the potentional but may be sharing the minutes with Seaby so watch and see how his scores are affected.
Brad Ottens $239,000
Coming back from injury could be worth looking at. The 2 factors are his age and fitness but at hjis price is very tempting.
David Hille $237,300
Coming back from injury and will play more forward this year as the bombers forward line re-builds. Could be a good cheap 2nd ruckman.
Nick Naitanui $232,400
Will play a lot more this year as Cox gets towards the end. Is definitely worth having a look at for your 2nd ruckman.
Mark Seaby $226,700
Could be the number 1 ruckman at the swans and has the ability to average 60-80 a week so is someone a lot of people have on there teams.
Matthew Leuenberger $202,100
Is fighting for the 2nd ruck spot with Charman but now that Charman is injured again (?)
will get an opportunity to cement his place in the side so could be a handy player for fantasy teams if he goes well at the start.
Ben Mcevoy $194,100
Has the ability but hasnt been given the opportunities he deserves but this year he should get a lot more and is someone to consider for 2nd or maybe even 3rd if you have the money available.
Jamie Charman $169,900
Injured not injured? always on and off... Not worth the risk stay away from him! a lot of better options.
Robert Warnock $101,800
Definitely worth having even as a starter because he could easily be the number 1 ruckman at the blues this year and at his price is going to make you money EXTREMELY quickly.
Wayde Skipper $95,800
After seeing him in the pre-season im sure a lot of people would have removed him from there teams but now after yet another injury to Hawthorns ruck stocks he would be back on a lot of teams and should definitely play a lot this year.
Mathew Lobbe $94,500
Was a big talking point but after his pre-season performances has dropped off the radar. Should still get a few chances during the year but not as a permanent fixture.
Jordan Roughhead $94,500
Has jumped onto a lot of fantasy teams in the past few weeks (mine among them!) but would be off a lot as well unless named in the early rounds.
Shane Mumford $242,900
He is at a new club and has the potentional but may be sharing the minutes with Seaby so watch and see how his scores are affected.
Brad Ottens $239,000

Injury Update - Brad Johnson
Will miss the start of the season with a calf injury. Shouldnt affect fantasy coaches to much as he is to old to be on many winning fantasy teams.
Injury Update - Liam Jurrah
Shoulder: 16 weeks out not going to be playing anytime soon. See how he is playing when he returns and if he fits into your team well then get him as he should be cheap.
Fantasy Defenders - On The Up
There is not a lot of value in rookie defenders this year but there are some players returning from injury and a few others.
Jack Grimes $392,300
Is expensive but has been tagged by the Melbourne coach for a move into the middle which would enhance his scoring capability. Has been in good from throughout the pre-season and is on my dream team.
Luke Hodge $366,800
A must have player. Is a great fantasy player and a lot of coaches would have him.
Michael Hurley $273,300
Would have been someone in my team but now that he is suspended we will have to wait and see how his form is come round 4. Maybe someone to downgrade to later.
Courtenay Dempsey $266,000
Had a great year last year and has the potential to take it up another level. Worth considering come round 1 teams.
Clancee Pearce $246,600
Is still a rookie however has been in great form in the pre-season and is almost a certainty to be upgraded. But is slightly expensive. Wait and see how he goes the first few games.
Nick Malceski $242,800
Had a bad year last year but has proven before he is a good fantasy player and is worth looking at for your team.
Andrejs Everitt $237,300
Could breakout this year certainly has the talent but just hasnt proven it yet. Will movep to the wing and get more fantasy points. see how his from is early in the season.
Lachie Henderson $226,000
At a new club has big shoes to fill just needs to find his spot in the team. Watch him and see how he goes as his pre-season form has been ok but nothing amazing.
Tadgh Kennelly $204,700
Coming back to the AFL and is still as good as ever and is extremely fit and healthy. Definitely worth having.
Jay Nash $202,100
At a new club worth watching for but hasnt cemented a place in the side so probably not worth having.
Simon Buckley $193,300
Gets a second chance at his new club Collingwood and could be a good player to pick up but his form has been extremely poor pre-season and is now probably no good having.
Rick Ladson $185,100
Worth looking at if he is fit but always seems to get injured.
Ryan Schoenmakers $181,800
Could definitely be a handy player but there are better options.
Josh Hunt $164,100
Coming back from a knee injury is a massive bargain this year and would be on most fantasy teams.
Beau Waters $152,800
Injuries the past few years but is a good player when fit and like hunt would be on most teams or being considered.
Andrew Moore $125,500
Is a cheap defender and could be handy for a bench option early in the season.
Matt Maguire $101,700
Is a massive bargain if he plays which he should do a lot of. Cheap and great value.
Phil Davis $94,500
Cheap bench option who should play a lot.
Jordan Lisle $94,500
Bench option could be good but havnt seen enough of him.
Jackson Trengove $94,500
Could play a bit this year as a defender/ruckman for the power as backup to Brogan.
Alex Silvagni $77,800
Cheap as you get if upgraded is definately worth getting on your team as he will make quick money.
Jack Grimes $392,300

Fantasy Midfielders On The Up - Dream team
This year there is a lot of value in the midfield. There are a lot of semi-experienced players, cheap draftees, players returning from injury and players traded to new clubs.
Luke Ball $366,500
At a new club should fit in well and get a lot of opportunities at Collingwood along side Swan.
Is someone who may be worth having for fantasy coaches. Has been in good from in the NAB Cup.
Clinton Jones $323,700
Some people would be surprised I put his name down but even though he usually plays as a tagger he can rack up the stats and may be worth having a look at.
David Armitage $321,100
Most people are saying he will come into the Saints side this year as a replacement for Ball but he may not be worth his price for fantasy teams as he is around the price range of a couple other good players.
Shaun Burgoyne $314,600
At a new club will slot straight in but fitness remains a worry. At his best is definitely worth it but I personally wouldnt risk it.
Trent Cotchin $296,200
Has been plagued by injuries but is extremely talented and is now going to be at Richmond for a long time with a renewed contract so they must have faith in him. Could be someone to pick up but at the moment I am leaning towards Masten who is in the same price range.
Chris Masten $293,900
In the same category as Cotchin but has had the better pre-season and is more likely to be on fantasy teams.
Rhys Palmer $277,700
Is someone to think about but probably not for the start of the season as there is an injury cloud.
Daniel Kerr $271,600
At his price is extremely tempting and I know some people have him on there teams but I would stay away and see how he goes and maybe get on him later.
Patrick dangerfield $232,000
Is certain to improve but is not really a good DTer but is better as a Supercoach player.
Young & Ladson
Injury prone but extremely cheap. Probably not worth it. Both have proven they can play but i wouldnt risk it.
Roary Sloane $175,800
Played some games last season and was impressive in parts will get more opportunities this year as they have a lot of injuries. If there round 1 may be worth looking at.
Tom Scully $157,700
Is the number 1 draft pick so definately have to watch him but there are better options.
Daniel Connors $156,000
Has some experience and is someone to watch as he has been in good from in the NAB Cup.
Jack Trengove $153,500
Number 2 draft pick has been better than Scully and would be on a lot of fantasy teams should play a lot.
Dustin Martin $149,500
Has been tagged by many as the Daniel Rich of 2010. Is a must for your dream team.
Anthony Morabito $145,500
His pre-season form has been ok with notjing amazing will play but may be better to wait and see how he goes.
Ben Cunnington $141,500
Is at a team that needs plenty of midfielders but has been injured should play sometime early but wait to see how he goes.
Gary Rohan $137,500
Has played well in the pre-season but the coach at sydney said he wont play much. He should play though on form and would be on a lot of fantasy teams as he is listed both forward and .in the middle.
Mitch Farmer $115,000
Wouldnt be on my team but is tempting to some as he is at Richmond so will probably play and he also is listed as a defender.
Michael Barlow $105,800
Has impressed everyone during the pre-season and will almost certainly play from round 1.
Lewis Jetta $105,500
Has impressed during the pre-season has exceptional pace and is worth looking at maybe on your bench.
Mitch Banner $94,500
Will play plenty of games this year and has been impressive. Is definately someone to have on your team.
Luke Shuey $94,500
Is going to play a lot as the Eagles build up there midfield again. Worth having at his price.
Ryan Bastinac $89,500
Is definatley worth having at his price as he will play a lot and go up in value quickly. Impressed on debut.
Brodie Moles $83,800
Has been tagged by many as someone who will be elevated and could play but probably best not to start with him.
Hope this helps you all. I will follow this up with all the bargains in the other postions.
Luke Ball $366,500

NAB Cup Review - Port adelaide vs Bulldogs
Barry Hall - 4 goals, 9 kicks, 9 marks
Could have easily had 6 or 7 goals as he was in a sharing mood and gave some goals to his new teammates. He is healthy and putting up fantasy scores and his price isn't big so he is a player to consider signing, but fantasy coaches also know the risks and have to decide if he is worth it. Right now, it looks like he will be worth it.
Lindsay Gilbee - 20 possessions
Played forward early in the game and that isn't where he gets his stats, went back to his usual role and played much better. That was probably just a small preseason experiment and fantasy coaches who sign him will see him in the back half with a lot of the ball during the regular season.
Mitchell Banner - 15 possessions, 5 tackles, 1 goal
There are many cheap fantasy onballers to go through and pick a couple for the bench and maybe one or two to start, and Banner could be selected by quite a lot of fantasy coaches. He has produced stats in every preseason game, and should be there when the Power pick their round 1 team.
Danyle Pearce - 17 possessions, 8 tackles, 1 goal
AFL clubs and fantasy coaches know that Pearce can be stopped by a tagger, and he had to deal with Picken in this game and didn't have it easy. Considering the close attention, those numbers are not bad when compared to his fantasy price.
Notes:
Moles had 18 possessions and would have increased his chances of a round 1 game for the Bulldogs, he has a very low fantasy price. Murphy looks like he will have a big year, playing the Michael O'Loughlin small centre half forward role with Hall at full forward. Roughead was again very active, he might be one of the better 4th ruck choices for fantasy teams as he is just one injury or suspension to Minson or Hudson from playing. Addison, Everitt and Wood probably haven't done enough to convince the Bulldogs to select them every week, but maybe Williams has as he can do a number of different things for them in the back line, Williams has a low fantasy price for a defender who could play every week. With Schulz out, D Stewart kicked 3 goals and may still be an option for a fantasy forward bench spot. Gray, with 21 possessions and 2 goals, showed he could be the player to do what S Burgoyne used to do there. Fantasy coaches were hoping the backup ruckman at the Power would help them this season, that may not be the case. Maybe they just play Brogan and give Westhoff a few minutes when Brogan needs a break.

NAB Cup - Western Bulldogs vs. Port Adelaide
Western Bulldogs
1. Jarrad Grant, 2. Robert Murphy, 3. Andrejs Everitt, 4. Daniel Cross, 5. Matthew Boyd, 7. Shaun Higgins, 8. Mitch Hahn, 9. Lindsay Gilbee, 10. Nathan Eagleton, 12. Tom Williams, 14. Callan Ward, 16. Ryan Griffen, 17. Adam Cooney, 19. Liam Jones, 20. Josh Hill, 21. Jason Akermanis, 22. Dylan Addison, 23. Jordan Roughead, 25. Ryan Hargrave, 27. Will Minson, 28. Barry Hall, 29. Easton Wood, 31. James Mulligan, 33. Tim Callan, 36. Brian Lake, 38. Dale Morris, 40. Jarrod Harbrow, 42. Liam Picken, 44. Brodie Moles.
Watch out for:
Tim Callan, he won't be great for stats but at his low price he wouldn't have to be. If the Bulldogs play him in the early rounds he could make some money for fantasy teams. If the Bulldogs decide they need a strong little defender instead of another runner in the midfield he could be a regular for them again.
Everyone will be watching what Hall does, and he won't have it easy with Carlile opposed to him and C Cornes and Chaplin getting in his space in front of him. If he gets 3 goals that will be enough for fantasy coaches to stay with him. Roughead would be another Bulldog that fantasy coaches are watching, a good choice for the 4th ruck spot as he would seem to be the clear choice as the 3rd ruckman for the Bulldogs, meaning he is only one injury away from games.
Williams and Everitt have always been players with height and mobility, which can often mean quality fantasy points, but they have yet to cement spots in the Bulldogs' team. Either one of them could be a fantasy bargain if they play regular games. Moles is someone that could make a lot of money for fantasy teams if he plays, there is talk that he is a chance for games as they now have a spot to elevate a rookie for the opening rounds, but for fantasy coaches it would be more useful if he player for the Bulldogs in the second half of the season as he could then be a player to trade for.
Port Adelaide
1. Domenic Cassisi, 3. Steven Salopek, 6. Danyle Pearce, 7. Nathan Krakouer, 9. Jacob Surjan, 10. Travis Boak, 11. Marlon Motlop, 12. Jackson Trengove, 13. Wade Thompson, 14. Paul Stewart, 16. Warren Tredrea, 17. Robbie Gray, 18. Kane Cornes, 19. Nick Salter, 20. Dean Brogan, 26. Andrew Moore, 27. Alipate Carlile, 28. Jay Schulz, 30. Troy Chaplin, 31. Mitchell Banner, 33. Brett Ebert, 35. Chad Cornes, 38. Scott Harding, 39. Justin Westhoff, 41. Jason Davenport, 43. Daniel Stewart, 44. Tom Logan, 45. Cameron Hitchcock, 47. Cameron Cloke.
Watch out for:
Tredrea, while he isn't a player to get with the expectation that he will bring in more fantasy points than his opening price he is someone for fantasy coaches to watch as his inclusion could make a bunch of cheaper fantasy players less useful for fantasy teams. D Stewart, Schulz and Cloke have been productive during pre-season but with Tredrea playing it means lesser opportunities for them. Maybe only Schulz will be a fantasy option, considering he can play a marking role at half forward and Tredrea will be the main target in the forward 50.
Banner, Krakouer, Salopek and Hitchcock could be some of the possible bargains at the Power, they could all excel in this game if it becomes a fast game with a lot possessions to go around. Moore is someone who could really help fantasy teams, with his price and two positions in fantasy AFL, but he may need to do a lot more to show the Power and fantasy coaches that he should be picked for round 1.
The second ruckman battle has not been very entertaining and no clear winner is evident at the moment. Lobbe might be who they go with, or they may decide they don't need another ruckman and will give Brogan a lot of minutes during the regular season and get by with J Westhoff or someone else playing a few backup ruck minutes each quarter.
Cornes and Cornes used to be a great duo for fantasy teams. It wouldn't be a bad idea to give them one more try, especially if C Cornes is free in the back line and K Cornes spends all his time in the middle.
I would say on the teams the Bulldogs should win but I'm not sure as the power have been in great form so far.

Easton Wood, 31. James Mulligan, 33. Tim Callan, 36. Brian Lake, 38. Dale Morris, 40. Jarrod Harbrow, 42. Liam Picken, 44. Brodie Moles.
Watch out for:
Tim Callan, he won't be great for stats but at his low price he wouldn't have to be. If the Bulldogs play him in the early rounds he could make some money for fantasy teams. If the Bulldogs decide they need a strong little defender instead of another runner in the midfield he could be a regular for them again.
Everyone will be watching what Hall does, and he won't have it easy with Carlile opposed to him and C Cornes and Chaplin getting in his space in front of him. If he gets 3 goals that will be enough for fantasy coaches to stay with him. Roughead would be another Bulldog that fantasy coaches are watching, a good choice for the 4th ruck spot as he would seem to be the clear choice as the 3rd ruckman for the Bulldogs, meaning he is only one injury away from games.
Williams and Everitt have always been players with height and mobility, which can often mean quality fantasy points, but they have yet to cement spots in the Bulldogs' team. Either one of them could be a fantasy bargain if they play regular games. Moles is someone that could make a lot of money for fantasy teams if he plays, there is talk that he is a chance for games as they now have a spot to elevate a rookie for the opening rounds, but for fantasy coaches it would be more useful if he player for the Bulldogs in the second half of the season as he could then be a player to trade for.

NAB Cup - St Kilda vs.Fremantle
St Kilda
1. Jason Gram, 2. Steven King, 4. Clint Jones, 5. Ben McEvoy, 6. Zac Dawson, 7. Lenny Hayes, 10. Steven Baker, 11. Leigh Montagna, 13. Adam Schneider, 14. Jarryn Geary, 19. Sam Gilbert, 20.

James Gwilt, 37. Leigh Fisher, 38. Will Johnson, 39. Alistair Smith, 45. Luke Miles, 44. Stephen Milne, 49. Steven Gaertner.
Watch out for:
Ben McEvoy, he is a bargain fantasy ruckman if the Saints continue to play him during the regular season. McEvoy will have the biggest test of all, in terms of height, in this game so if he can play well against Sandilands that could get the Saints to lock him in for round 1. With Riewoldt having a rest here, McEvoy will also get time at half forward and that could mean marks and goals.
Peake probably won't do enough to have fantasy coaches signing him, but he is a chance to sneak into the St Kilda round 1 team. Armitage would be one Saint ahead of Peake on their depth chart, and someone that fantasy coaches are considering as they figure out if he is going to play every game.
Fremantle
2. Anthony Morabito, 3. Byron Schammer, 4. Paul Hasleby, 5. Garrick Ibbotson, 6. Greg Broughton, 8. Nick Suban, 9. Adam McPhee, 13. Nathan Fyfe, 15. Ryan Crowley, 19. Clayton Hinkley, 20.

Watch out for:
Michael Barlow, when round 1 comes along he should be in the Fremantle side, they will be able to play one rookie every round of the regular season and they will probably nominate Barlow. Depending on their injured list, two or three Fremantle rookies may be eligible to play for round 1. Watch how Barlow plays in this game, maybe the Saints pay more attention to him than his previous two opponents did.
Pearce, has been good in the first few games and is someone to watch.
Morabito, hasn't done anything amazing so far but was certainly more solid in his second game but needs to prove his worth to fantasy coaches in the next 2 games.
Broughton, Duffield and Hayden were solid fantasy players in the first preseason game, but did little last game, fantasy coaches may want to avoid them until their roles are more defined.

Injury Update - Shaun Burgoyne
Injury worry: Maybe this hamstring problem is a red flag for fantasy coaches, and Burgoyne will be traded out of fantasy teams before the season starts.
"The early rounds" of the 2010 season are when he is expected to play. If you have him on your fantasy roster, you would be hoping that means round 2, or 3. If you want to trade for him during the season, you would be hoping that was round 5 or 6 and after Burgoyne had played a couple of games it coincided with a young fantasy onballer getting close to their peak in value.
Burgoyne is at a very good bargain price, but there are several players around his price who will also be very good for fantasy teams to sign.

Injury Update - Cameron Wood
Finger: Will miss the start of the season after undergoing finger surgery. Wood injured the ring finger on his left hand in Friday night's NAB Challenge win over Adelaide in Alice Springs.The 22-year-old had a tendon reattached on Sunday and will be sidelined for six weeks.
Wood played 13 games for Collingwood last season, including the club's semi and preliminary finals, and was expected to offer strong support to new recruit Darren Jolly in 2010 as they try Fraser in a different role to help prevent his knee re-injuring. Is expensive for fantasy teams and not really worth it but now so even more.
Injury Update - Antoni Grover
Missing round 1: Grover will probably miss the start of the season due to injury, so he shouldn't be in fantasy teams. The Dockers could nominate both Barlow and Silvagni as rookies available to play, although they do have other players to consider instead of Silvagni. What could annoy fantasy coaches is if Fremantle play Silvagni for the first couple of matches, with Grover out, but then he doesn't play again during the season. Silvagni is still one of the best choices for a very cheap fantasy defender, but he may not be guaranteed money for fantasy teams like Barlow could be in the fantasy midfield.
Injury Update - Jamie Charman
Maybe a month, maybe more: No definite news about his ankle injury yet, except he won't be there for round 1. So with Clark and Leuenberger the Brisbane ruck combo for the opening rounds, assuming they stay healthy, it will be difficult for fantasy teams to start the season with Charman on their bench even though his price is low. Wait for more news about his injury, before ruling him out of fantasy teams, but also go through the other cheap ruckmen to find a good replacement to sit on the bench. Those who want to start Leuenberger in fantasy teams, as he is affordable and maybe only an injury to Clark away from huge minutes, will want to see how he goes against the Geelong ruckmen in the NAB Challenge game.

Player Profile - Daniel Bradshaw
Training well: Fantasy coaches looking for something different may want Bradshaw in their side if the Swans name him for round 1. First Sydney said he was ready to go after minor surgery, then they said things were not progressing as fast as they expected, and now they say he will be a good chance to play in round 1. The fantasy price is right for Bradshaw, and the Swans need someone like him at full forward ti kick to, but fantasy coaches have to consider his age and fitness before signing him.
Fantasy Tips - Team Predictions

Injury Update - Cale Morton
To miss several months: Fantasy coaches need to remove C Morton from their teams, and think about which Melbourne players can do the things that Morton can, there wouldn't be many. Joel Macdonald, who was already looking like a solid fantasy signing, would seem to be the player with the similar size and playing style to Morton who can play around half back and on the wing and accumulate possessions. They could move Petterd back, he has been playing up forward. The coach at Melbourne wouldn't think about this, but Watts could be very productive in the role that Morton had, Watts has height and is also agile. Bate and Dunn are other Melbourne players who are similar to Morton, and would increase their stats if used in his role.
Morton could be useful to teams later in the season, if he returns with two solid games he could be a player to trade for, when upgrading the midfield.
The injury could also open a spot for a rookie to play, Spencer and McKenzie might be the ones they look at.

Injury Update - Christian Howard
Open rookie spot: Howard wasn't going to be useful for fantasy teams this year, the coach at the Bulldogs already told people that, but as he is injured and officially on the long-term injury list it could open a spot for a cheap fantasy player to get some games early in the season. The Bulldogs are deep and don't need to play a rookie, but that was probably the thinking last year when Picken had a big fantasy season. Moles would be the favourite to play, Rose would also be someone who is ready.
