AFL Fantasy Dream Team Preview: Ruckmen
February 15th 2007 04:23
Here is a preview of a possible team for the AFL Fantasy Dream Team competition. The positions are from last season's competition, or an estimate for the new players. The team was put together using approximate prices for the players.
Robert Campbell: No Everitt or Bailey to compete with Campbell for playing time in 2007 so Campbell should have a good year for statistics.
Dean Cox: He gets hitouts, marks and possessions and plays a lot of minutes so he will continue to be one of the best fantasy ruckmen.
Jeff White: He also plays a lot of minutes, has plenty of marks and kicks for a ruckman and can also kick an occasional goal. He is one of the best fantasy ruckmen.
Aaron Sandilands: None of the four ruckmen here have a backup player pushing them for playing time. Like the three players above, Sandilands will play a lot, and for Dream Team hitouts can be a useful statistic.
John Meesen: A cheap option for a bench ruck spot, but a chance to play a few games. The NAB Cup game, and also Adelaide's game against Norwood, will give an idea of whether the Crows go with Meesen or Maric as the backup to Hudson.
Mitchell Clark: Was a ruckman, and a forward, last season for eligible positions. Probably still can be put in a ruck position although with Brisbane if he plays it will be in a key position. Maybe he gets a shot at centre half forward, or they could move him to the back line.
