Hi and welcome to the first H&A edition of the Fantasy Freakos rave for 2012. It was a solid start for most coaches last week, but in saying that there would
have been plenty that were irate at some of the subpar performances we saw. Dont get too carried away though and pull the trigger this early. Give them at
least one more game to redeem themselves.
Enjoy this weeks read and remember that Round 2 is also a partial lockout, so make sure that you lock in your Carlton and Brisbane players away prior to
Thursday. Take note, reversible trades will only work until the partial lockout. After that they stick.

There is nothing more demoralising than seeing your players start the year
off with absolute shockers. That was the case for several last round, with
the biggest disappointment being Brian Lake. Normally you wouldnt go
anywhere near a full-back, but in this instance we were all sucked in by his
tempting starting price. Just on 30% of coaches had to watch him record
a dismal eight disposals and 29 DT points against the Eagles, which was
only seven more points than Izzys return. Corey Enright was another
player that let his coaches down, finishing with 11 disposals, one mark
and 38 points. Hes done very little over the pre-season and was always
going to struggle early, so he can be somewhat excused.
Of the kids, Brandon Ellis was one player I expected more from. Admittedly
he was a youngster in his first game, but as soon as you step over that
line you will be judged like everyone else regardless of age. Hes a quality
player and I expect a better showing this week against Collingwood.
Another player that deserves an honourable mention that doesnt feature
in the below table is Steven Morris. As a mature-age recruit I was bitterly
disappointed with his return, collecting only one disposal and three points
in the first half, managing only 24 more points after that.
POOR START
ROOKIES DID US PROUD
For the most part, our rookies did the job for us last week. It was headed
by the mature-agers, with James McDonald putting in a super display
against the Swans, finishing with 23 disposals, six tackles and 98 DT
points. Team mate Jonathan Giles took it right up to Shane Mumford,
finishing with 12 disposals, 26 hitouts and a respectable 77 points. It was
one of the kids that really stood out though, with Adam Kennedy starring
across half-back, picking up a team-high 28 disposals and 116 points.
Sadly many coaches had him sitting on the pine. What a waste!
If you dont have any of the below players in your team, then it may be
a good idea to bring them in after the next round before their price sky
rockets!

I was getting nervous at half time last week when Dangerfield was on 29
DT points from 10 disposals. Thankfully he lifted after that, collecting 15
disposals and 60 points booting two goals along the way.
PATRICK DANGERFIELD IAN CALLINAN
This guy has more strings to his bow than Jason Porplyzia, hence
making him a better DT pick. He outscored the latter by 41 points last
week, finishing with 18 disposals, two goals and 99 points. That score
would have been much higher had he converted his five behinds into
goals.
ADELAIDE
FantasyFreako
@FantasyFreako - If you have Sam Kerridge, then dont be disheartened. He
is frst in line for a game if there are changes.

BRISBANE LIONS
Rockliff demonstrated last week that hes a DT gun no matter where he
plays. He was used predominantly as a forward against Melbourne, but
that didnt affect his output, racking up 130 DT points the equal fifth-
best return for the round.
TOM ROCKLIFF PEARCE HANLEY
It looks like Hanley is set for a big year. He dominated last week against
the Demons, finishing with 23 disposals and 120 DT points. Playing
further up the ground than last season, he also drifted forward to score
two majors.

Carlton AFL Dream Team Points

CARLTON
After losing his DPP status, only 5% of coaches have jumped on Gibbs
this season which is a massive drop from last year. He showed everyone
why hes a DT gun in Round 1 against the Tigers, finishing with 104
points from his 22 disposals.
BRYCE GIBBS KANE LUCAS
As he did in the opening round last season, Lucas started as the
substitute. If he has another sub affected performance against Brisbane
this week, then his place in your side has to be questioned.
FantasyFreako
@FantasyFreako - Matthew Kreuzers 96 DT points last round was the ffth-
highest of any ruckman in the league.

If you ended up bringing in Yagmoor last week just because he was play-
ing, then youve shot yourself in the foot. He failed to record a disposal
against the Hawks, collecting two tackles and eight DT points before
being subbed off early in the third term.
PETER YAGMOOR SCOTT PENDLEBURY
Picking Pendlebury over Dane Swan this season could prove to be a
masterstroke. Although we are only one round in, he outscored his team
mate by 30 points last week against Hawthorn.

Stanton has a history of dominating in Round 1 games and last week was
no different. He had a blinder against North Melbourne, finishing with 35
disposals, two goals and a round-high 153 DT points. Its staggering that
just over 1% of coaches have selected him.
BRENT STANTON DAVID ZAHARAKIS
If you havent got Zaharakis, then keep him on your radar as a trade up
target for your forward line. He was one of Essendons best against the
Kangaroos, finishing with 25 disposals, six tackles and 100 DT points.

Fremantle AFL Dream Team Points

FREMANTLE
On the back of declaring that Broughton had trained with the midfield
group all pre-season, Ross Lyon decided to play him in defence last
week on Stevie J. He finished with only 14 disposals and 59 DT points,
picking up half of his disposals in the defensive 50.
GREG BROUGHTON MICHAEL BARLOW
Barlows ball-winning ability cannot be questioned, ranking equal-eighth
in the league for DT points scored per minute in Round 1, collecting 52
points from his 41 minutes. If he can prove that he is over his injury con-
cerns, then he looms as a potential trade up target later in the year.

GEELONG CATS
Motlop was a shining light for the Cats last round, finishing with 14
disposals, two goals and 80 DT points. He should hold his place in the
side in the early rounds ensuring a decent price rise.
STEVEN MOTLOP ORREN STEPHENSON
Three disposals and 22 DT points is what we got from Stephenson
last round. At this rate his early prices rises are likely to be small, so
hopefully he can lift his game and post some better numbers over the

Jonathan Giles and equalled by debutant Jarrad Redden.

GREATER WESTERN SYDNEY
Will job security be enough to hold onto Cameron? We know that he will
play, but his scores wont be consistent considering hes a key position
player. After managing 14 DT points in the first half against the Swans, a
move to defence in the second saw him improve, adding 25 to his tally.
JEREMY CAMERON DOM TYSON
Theres a bit of Andrew Gaff about Tyson. He started the opening round
as the substitute and he could very well play that role early on. If he gets
the vest again this week his first price rise wont be as high as other
cash cows.

HAWTHORN
Hodge was a shock no show last week against Collingwood after suf-
fering a calf injury at training in the lead up to the match. He wont be
risked this week against Geelong either, with a return likely to come in
the following round against Adelaide.
LUKE HODGE JARRAD BOUMANN
A sub affected seven disposals and 18 DT points is what Boumann
produced last week on debut against the Magpies. Being a key
defender his score were never going to be too high, but that was poor
nonetheless.

goals, with both his majors coming in the final term when the result was
beyond doubt.

Swallow was serviceable last week against the Bombers, finishing with

Essendon, I wouldnt be getting too carried away with Thomas return.

Fellow mature-age recruit McCarthy also got amongst it in his
Port Adelaide debut, collecting 23 disposals and 96 DT points. He
could prove to be one of the recruits of the year, and from a fantasy

always, applying an equal game-high seven.
