AFL Fantasy Player News: Selwood Is Very Good, Marc Murphy Stars
Hawthorn v Carlton
Jarryd Roughead: Again played as a forward, might be a solid fantasy player but isn’t worth a big price.
Tim Boyle: Had a great game as the third tall forward, should be an inexpensive player to sign.
Jordan Lewis: Lewis, and Clarke, covered plenty of ground and got a lot of the ball. Will get plenty of fantasy points.
Sam Mitchell: Will be one of the best fantasy midfielders in 2007.
Lance Franklin: Plenty of good signs, his actual stats should be enough to justify his price as it will be a lot lower than the best fantasy forwards.
Shane Crawford: Covered a lot of ground, should again be a very good fantasy player.
Simon Taylor: Is a good player for hitouts, hasn't improved in other areas enough to be a good fantasy player yet. For fantasy leagues, his solid play at bounces could reduce Campbell’s playing time and stats a bit.
Grant Birchall: Another impressive game, his game is very suited to getting fantasy points.
Brent Renouf: Is providing a needed tall body in the back line, could be a player for a fantasy bench spot as a ruckman or defender.
Luke Hodge: Played back and in the middle, he should again be eligible in fantasy AFL for both positions.
Travis Tuck: Probably needs another year in the VFL, may be a fantasy option in 2008.
Clinton Young: Should get a regular spot for the Hawks and is a good kick of the ball, which should mean plenty of fantasy points.
Brent Guerra: Had a good game, his career has been inconsistent but he seems to have found a role with the Hawks.
Gary Moss: Looked a bit overwhelmed in his first game, but if a couple of injuries hit their midfield he could be a surprise fantasy player later in 2007.
Jordan Russell: Is getting his chance but not doing enough,
Marc Murphy: Is one of their big stars, and will be for fantasy points too, their captain in 2008.
Bryce Gibbs: Hasn't exploded with stats yet, looks to be a bit of a risk to start him on fantasy teams for round 1. But he has another game next week to show further improvement.
Josh Kennedy: Showed that he would have the ball kicked to him, will be a star in fantasy AFL in the future and should have plenty of solid games this season.
Cain Ackland: Does have the ability to go forward and kick a goal, but not a lot of other skills.
Setanta O’hAilpin: If his fantasy price is low then he might be a good player for a fantasy bench.
Cameron Cloke: Carlton seem to go with him more than Ackland as the game progresses, it sounds strange but this Cloke may have AFL fantasy value.
Heath Scotland: The perfect fantasy stats role, just sitting there alone at half back.
Jarrad Waite: Not as good as last week but his fantasy value is much higher than last season.
Anthony Koutoufides: Was on the bench and also played as a forward, that won't help his fantasy numbers.
Andrew Carrazzo: Could be a good fantasy player with his forward/midfielder role.
Geelong v Port Adelaide
Joel Selwood: Another great game, he plays like a 10 year veteran.
Nathan Djerrkura: Certainly has some skills, should see some action in 2007.
Cameron Mooney: Looks to be a forward this year, could be a good fantasy player, especially if Ottens misses games during the regular season.
Nathan Ablett: Not the best conditions, obviously, but he still looked like he would be a fixture on their forward line this season.
Mark Blake: Might be a good signing if King misses regular season games, Blake has potential.
Mathew Stokes: May have been reported, there didn't seem to be a lot of contact in the incident.
David Johnson: Worked hard so still has a chance at round 1, Wojcinski might be the better option for Geelong and for fantasy teams.
Gary Ablett: Seemed to be in the action all the time, will be on many fantasy teams.
Matthew Scarlett: Had a lot of the ball, will be a useful fantasy player, won't cost the big money.
Brendon Lade: A very valuable fantasy ruckman, had a solid game in the rain.
Travis Boak: Didn't really do enough to guarantee a spot for round 1, but should play a few games this year.
David Rodan: If he is a cheap fantasy forward he might be too good not to sign for a fantasy team.
Damon White: If you want to try a big Port forward with Tredrea out then add White to your fantasy team.
Domenic Cassisi: A bit cheaper than some of the star fantasy midfielders, but isn't far off their statistics.
Chad Cornes: Had a big impact on the result, but for fantasy numbers he was again getting the ball all over the ground.
Jarryd Roughead: Again played as a forward, might be a solid fantasy player but isn’t worth a big price.
Tim Boyle: Had a great game as the third tall forward, should be an inexpensive player to sign.
Jordan Lewis: Lewis, and Clarke, covered plenty of ground and got a lot of the ball. Will get plenty of fantasy points.
