AFL DREAM TEAM 2008

This year’s AFL Dream Team season is almost upon us.  The painstaking research, number crunching, team selection dilemmas, trading frenzies etc will however be with us for another 22 odd weeks.  Will it all come to something worthwhile or end in heartache yet again.  Can I win a weekly prize for being either highest overall scoring for a week, or as highest scorer for a week from the Richmond supporters? Missing out twice in 2 years by a bee’s dick has only made me more determined.  Will last year’s result of 1070th out of 237,114 entries be surpassed?  Will I at some stage be ranked as high 143rd as I was at the end of Round 14 last year?  Can my team stay injury free (and have trades up my sleeve) so I don’t go into free fall over the closing rounds?  Check in for your weekly updates commencing late March onwards......and yes it’s better than drawing.

UPDATE ROUND 12 & 13
Geesh, can I have the last two weeks back.....  at least some trades still up my sleeves for the League I’m in.  However I’m no chance of finishing in top 1000 overall.  Round 5 Eliminator match = loss - the Eliminator is a huge knockout competition starting with circa 131,000 entrants and operates like a tennis tournament, win and progress, lose and suffer an inglorious exit.  That’s me gone at least, I made it to through to the last 8,192 Dream Teams in the Eliminator!!!

Three IFs for the price of one.  Seeing that I’ve been slacking off on the drawing front I decided to combine the last three topics in a horror schlock pastiche.
