AFL Fantasy SuperCoach Team Preview: The Centres
There is just over a month to go before the SuperCoach AFL fantasy competition is to begin. Using the statistics, estimated values and the rules of SuperCoach a preview of a possible fantasy lineup will be posted.
A possible starting centre group:
Chris Judd: Not a difficult decision. He will be first picked for many AFL fantasy teams. Costs a lot but brings in the fantasy points. He has again had his shoulder worked on over summer, so maybe with that fixed Judd is even better than he usually is.
Adam Goodes: The perfect player for AFL fantasy, there is nothing he can't do. The only way he becomes more valuable is if he is position eligible for the ruck, but that is unlikely.
Scott Thompson: An upside pick, with Ricciuto and McLeod both possibly playing forward it could mean more responsibility and more statistics for Thompson in the middle. Could be a bargain pick who won't just get AFL fantasy points but will see a good value increase.
Bryce Gibbs: The question isn't about signing him but deciding if he is kept on a fantasy bench or played as a starter, maybe he should be starting when round 1 comes along. It will only take a quarter of Carlton's first NAB Cup game to see if Gibbs can play and the result should be a positive. For signing Gibbs and starting him, it is assuming that Gibbs does start at the lowest price, but as Murphy did last year then that should happen for Gibbs too.
