benjy251090 – The season that will be!


Hi everybody!

I am benjy251090. Just a small fish in a big sea. I am 20, in University and am looking to ‘Kick a Vic’. I am in both the SuperCoach and DreamTeam Leagues for the Elxam Cup which is described by Ossie85 about a fellow FanFooty member passing away on Father’s Day in 2010.

I am going to be giving you my thoughts for players I am going to choose. With both competitions, I will be looking at the same players as generally if you are decent at one, you will be decent at the other.

At the moment I have 2 main ideas, the first one being:

The Premium/Rookie theory!

This looks good if you choose the right mixture of rookies and premiums. However, it does not allow for you to find this year’s Malceski/Waters as you will not be getting any mid-pricers (like Otten, Petrie, etc.). Here is the list of players that I will look at for the Premium/Rookie Theory.

Backline:

Premiums

  • Goddard
  • Lake
  • Gibbs
  • Deledio

The second theory I have is:

The Money-Making Team!

This team will use premiums and rookies along with players who will be guaranteed to make $100K. The premiums and rookies are the same as above, I will be just listing the players who will be more expensive cash cows.
