Is everybody starting Zwaanswijk? Was locked for me until I saw that he is turning 38 in January, maybe Bojic a better option?? Both have attacking threats, but Zwaansijk a bit more so...

Zwaanswijk is Fantasy gold! worth every cent. Keeps cleansheets in a stellar squad, leads the defence, is good in the air, and is very smart in when and how to attack. he did it when he was 36, 37, why not 38? haven't seen him get injured either.
only reason i don't have him is because i have Ryan in goals.

Awesome writeup Luigi!!

Damn, now I'm tempted to make a squad.. :P

I really really shouldn't though with WACE exams only 6 weeks away (mocks on the week following round 1 of th A-league...)

First world problems...

Zwaanswijk is quality, even for his age, but he did score a lot because of his goals.  He's pricey and may not get that return again this year, which is why I passed on him.  I've gone Rose instead, who I think is a great player, and can pop up with a few assists at left back.

Go on!  Will only take like 10 minutes of your time a week to sort out.  We need the numbers! :D

Cheers LE :)
If you get some free time sometime this week or next before you get stuck into exam revision, just submit a team anyway, you never know. I think i've made it a bit easier for you to make one. Plus You may not need to touch it until you get time ;)

That's what I told myself about dream team 4 years ago... -.-

Chelskiman

Haha, true.  Seriously though, it will probably take 30 odd minutes to set your squad up, then 5-10 minutes every week to sort your team out (captain, starting line-up, trades etc) each week.  Surely you can spare that?!

MajorLazer

I'm in both of the leagues guys.

Team name is Pot Vs. Kettle.


elephants

Okay fine.

I'll make a team up sometime over the next week :)

Tomas Rogic shaping out as a good pickup at 175K. Averaged about 4 points in the last year in the 9 or 10 games he played

EZA100

this is my first year in a-league fantasy and i used to follow a-league a bit but stopped watching it gonna start again this year. got
gk ryan and tyson
def zwaansswijk, franjic and marrone
mid dugandzic, mcGlinchey, zadkovich and rojas
fwd del piero, berisha and smeltz

havent filled out the other players because i dont know who is good for around 100k was thinking 3-4-3 but maybe i should get rid of smeltz and get huysegems from wellington?

Luigi197

atm Mase i'd think i'd pass on Rogic; but I may be proven wrong later.

That looks like a stacked team Eza :/ how much cash do you have left?
I'd be a bit hesitant at first with Rojas because we don't know if Ange will play him as he now has a lot of options with similar playing ability in the midfield. Also, i've seen Zadkovich play a few times when streaming online, and I honestly think that the only thing that appeals to me is the fact that he starts game. last season he only averaged a score involvement every 3 games (dividing Minutes played by the number of goals and assists combined). Keeping at the Jets, although with similar stats and slightly cheaper, J Brown is much more creative and when he was at GCU absoloutly killed it.

For anyone under 100k any WSW players would be a safe bet. so not including those, with my limited knowledge i would suggest:
Defenders under 100k i would say Sainsbury, Gerdhart and Vrankovic.
Midfielders under 100k i would look at Pantelis, Lia,  Celeski, Davies, Kalmar, Pellegrino,
Forwards under 100k say Alssop(+5k), Markelis, Jesic, Taggart.
-But looking under most selected should also give you a good idea, these are just players which i think are actually good and may get game time, but no one knows what the coach will decide to do.

what do you think of huysegems?

Ah yes, the new striker recently signed by Wellington correct?
Belgian, 30 years old, 1.86m tall forward.
Has represented Belgium both in youth and senior on countless occassions. an experienced man.
Has played for Feyenoor and FC Twente as well as with Lierse along side Archie Thompson.
has played in the UEFA champions league.

Priced at 150k could be a steal! Has to compete with Brockie and Ifill as well as Sanchez and Bertos; but if the coach Herbert decides to play this guy, he may have the potential to be their star frontman, especially if Ifill stays injured.
i like this goal too http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8F9W9InaIl4 ;D

i made a random team to see if you could rearrange the formation and now i cant go back to the selecting team part do i have to go to transfers and do it that way?
