Considerations when choosing your Dream Team

[MissPies]

There are so many aspects of the players to consider when choosing and  trading your DreamTeam. Thought I might mention a few that are not so  obvious.

*A lot of the players in the 200k-275k price range that had an average  of at least 60-75 last year may be prime picks for DT scores of 90+ this  year - if they are heading into their 3rd, 4th or 5th year.

*Clubs such as Bombers, Richmond, Roos, WCE, Melb and Freo have been  forced to play rookies due to club overhauls, so picking your rookies  for first few rounds from these teams is a good idea if you want to make  money off them to trade later for guns.

*Rookies that score big in the Nab Cup from Clubs that have better than  average players on their set 22 are less likely to play more than 10  games unless a major player strikes injury early which in that case you  can trade for another 400k+ player.

*Players priced 380k+ with 2 or more major injuries in their career are  not likely to finish a season and price will drop dramatically leaving  you with a trade down effect.

*If possible go for a cheap dual position player when choosing your ruck  emergencies(again from teams that are forced to play rookies due to  Club overhauls)

*Before making trades check if they are on the injury list, I have seen  so many people trade for a better player only to find out later they are  injured. (lol yes it happens)

*This may sound silly but read the tabloids(yes New Idea and Womans  Weekly lol). Players who have wives or girlfriends in the spotlight may  have added stress on their minds before a game and you may want to put  them in emergency just for that week.
