Richmond - Early 2011 Fantasy AFL Preview, A Thought On Every Player allfooty.info
Monday, January 17, 2011
David Astbury, made money last year so don't expect much this time.
Jake Batchelor, if they are losing they might decide to give him a few games during the season.
Andrew Browne, unless injuries hit their other ruckmen he won't be someone to have.
Reece Conca, a high draft pick that went to a bad AFL team so that usually means making money and getting fantasy stats.
Daniel Connors, can't be trusted so fantasy coaches may avoid him even though he can get stats.
Trent Cotchin, is supposedly healthier than during other preseasons.
Matthew Dea, not a lot of upside.
Brett Deledio, could be a popular fantasy player due to having two fantasy positions.
Tom Derickx, an option for the 4th ruck spot due to his low price and his age.
Shane Edwards, can be useful but isn't consistent.
Mitch Farmer, it was his price and fantasy positions that made him a possible player last year but maybe not this time.
Nathan Foley, at a bargain price so many will sign him up but his game might be more suited to Dream Team than SuperCoach.
David Gourdis, upped his price so don't get him now.
Angus Graham, should be their top ruckman but isn't secure in the spot.
Ben Griffiths, they win with him but he hardly touches the ball.
Shaun Grigg, moved clubs for a bigger opportunity so he could be value for fantasy money.
Dylan Grimes, not going to be as good as Melbourne's Old Grimey.
Bradley Helbig, has a similar name to the Ultimate Warrior so that is a reason to sign him but also watch preseason to see if Richmond play him.
Bachar Houli, moves teams and has the game to be the next Jordan McMahon so that can mean fantasy numbers.
Daniel Jackson, was a tagger who could then get some of the ball and now doesn't worry a lot about his opponent so in some games he will have good fantasy stats but he isn't the best choice at his price.
Jake King, most fantasy coaches find him too annoying to sign.
Dean MacDonald, could get some playing time in 2011 if their forward structure doesn't fire again.
Dustin Martin, the usual story of a high pick making money in year 1 and maybe being avoided in year 2 due to price.
Luke McGuane, has an ugly game for stats as a defender and when they sent him forward it was worse.
Kelvin Moore, doesn't offer a lot to fantasy teams but won't be expensive.
Mitch Morton, could be a fantasy steal if he has a full season as a Richmond midfielder with a lot of the ball.
Robin Nahas, good when he was cheap but not someone to sign now.
Ben Nason, a huge surprise last season as he played a lot of games but forget about signing in 2011 as his price is higher.
Chris Newman, a reliable fantasy defender.
Jayden Post, does seem to have potential so see if he is a big part of their preseason teams.
Alex Rance, he looked like a fantasy star in his first few games but that seems like a long time ago.
Jack Riewoldt, was the safer Riewoldt last year when it came to injuries and could kick more goals than the other one in 2011.
Troy Taylor, fantasy coaches take on the huge risk if they sign him.
Will Thursfield, doesn't get stats.
Shane Tuck, they can put him anywhere and he still gets a lot of the football but unless he is a fantasy defender in 2011 he won't be a great pick.
Tyrone Vickery, suffered the Samson experience just like A Everitt did as he started his AFL career with potential and long hair but his game stalled after a visit to the barber.
Jeromey Webberley, provided a boost to fantasy teams during the 2010 fantasy AFL season but isn't a good signing now.
Matthew White, maybe for Dream Team and probably not for SuperCoach.
RookiesPat Contin, sticks around for another year so he might be closer to playing.
Robert Hicks, played in 2010 so you don't want him now.
Tom Hislop, can't help fantasy teams.
Ben Jakobi, has age on his side compared to younger rookies so he might get some games in 2011.
Brad Miller, you may have to go back a lot of years to when he was getting many marks as a defender for Melbourne for when he was someone to have on fantasy teams.
Jamie O'Reilly, his three games in 2010 will push his price up a bit.
Nicholas Westhoff, unlikely to play soon.
