AFL Dynasty Draft

[Hulmie]

If i was you i'd be playing Dids on the half forward line i think he plays his best football there.


If you have these experienced players in your team they teach the younger players and help them develop. Plus there's plenty of good young players around.

I guess. I like him always near the ball though. So he can just work his magic whenever. But yes, I can put him in the HF line. See how my team pans out.

[Hulmie]

I guess you also have the option of rotating him and another midfielder through the Forward line instead of on the bench.

Then just relabel the draft as picking 29 yr old defeats the purpose imo.
But w/e.

[Andrew3737]

Aim of the draft is to build a team to have the best chance of winning the most premierships.

[CrowsFan]

Agree with andrew here. Someone has to win the premiership in the next 2 years and it's not going to be a team of 20 year olds.

My team so far:
FB - ???, Rutten, ???
HB - ???, Bock, ???
C - ???, ???, ???
HF - ???, ???, ???
FF - ???, ???, ???
R - Sandilands, Hodge, ???

May also play Hodge off a back flank, not really decided. As you can see like andrew's team it is full of experienced players as they have a better chance winning in the next 2-3 years :)

Isn't it about players who are about to peak? 28-29 yr old have definitely already peaked.

No dynasty is about creating a team who is going to win the most premierships. In reality you want to get a good mix of Veterans and youth.

This. Some are in their peak while others coming up to it soon. So 20 y.o's aren't a great option but 22-24 year olds mixed with some in their mid-late 20's are a good mix.

Have a look at collingwoods team... They're still young & but have the experienced players mixed in.

[Andrew3737]

Its about building a team to win premierships over a X amount of time.

For example, I pick the best players avaliable right now. You pick the best potential players that might* become elite. The best players will always win at this time. You may win later on but how many?

* the players who have potential to become elite, may even not become elite. They could get an injury or just not reach it.

With my current team, I am looking @ Premierships for the first 3-4 years and then rebuilding later on. In this draft, there will be about 3 teams that will dominate and the others will be borderline contending. That's generally how drafts pan out. So If I win just one premiership with this team, thats going to be better then almost all the teams that are in this.

When people say Dynasty, they always get young players. I am taking advantage of that and picking the best current players which gives me the best chance to win the most premierships. Its always my strategy to go all out with the best current players because it gives you a window where no one else really has one. Which gives me the best team for that year, and ultimately a premiership. I won't have as much competition in the 1st-3rd years as the other teams will have in 3rd-10th years. Gives me a lot better chance of winning premierships, which this draft is all about.

When u lose don't cry & moan like usual ok Andrew? ::)

[Andrew3737]

lol.........

Also, is it going to be a poll thing as usual? What will be the question on the Poll? What is the best team? Who will in the most premierships?

Prob should sort it out soonish.
