AFL Coaches Award Votes for Round 2, 2010

Molly — Tue, 06 Apr 2010 08:18:57 +0000

A lot of talk over the weekend was of whether Brown was better then Carey and then moved onto who are the best Centre Half-Forwards (including Riewoldt in the debate). It both the current stars turn on the goods and the coaches saw it as such with both having perfect voting games. The third perfect 10 came from the man I call 211, Aaron Sandilands, who seven were pushing up as a possible Brownlow candidate! So how did the Coaches Vote?

AFL Teams for Round 2, 2010 – Happy Easter

Molly — Tue, 30 Mar 2010 22:26:16 +0000

Round 1 out of the way. The two biggest surprise results where Freo over the Crows (although I think Crows could struggle a little with injuries, at least early) and the Pies win over the Dogs, after the Dogs NAB Cup win.

Round 2 is all ways a challenge for the Fans doing tipping and especially DreamTeam and SuperCoach! The round will stretch from Thursday until Monday. So if you have a Cat or Hawk that you have some doubts about, you will have a long wait ahead of you and will have to take a bit of a guess on it.

So when will the teams be available? Here is the schedule:

Wednesday 5pm will see the release of the teams for the Thursday night game
Thursday 5pm will see all teams and Squads released with final teams for the Saturday Matches
Friday 5pm will see final teams for the Sunday Match and Saturday at 4pm will see the Hawks and Cats side finalized. Don’t forget to return to the site to see the teams as they come to hand!

UPDATE (Saturday 7:41pm):

Final teams in. Motlop surprise (somewhat) for the Cats and I (as a Hawks Supporter) would say that Garry Moss is a surprise out for the Hawks.

AFL Teams – Round 4, 2009

Important round and perhaps match of the round (or least the one with the element of a train wreck) is Sundays channel 7 game, Richmond vs Melbourne.

AFL Power Rankings – Round 2 – Sorting things out, sort of

Molly — Tue, 07 Apr 2009 16:49:03 +0000

Week two had some more upsets but a lot of things went to plan. I may have moved my Hawks too far, but it probably factors in another loss to the Roos. They have a lot of injuries and their ruck is shot! The other big drop was Port. The big up movement is Brisbane. The thing I am learning with this is that it’s going to take some weeks to know what wins are good ones and which aren’t.

So again, did I get it right or not? Let me know your thoughts in the comments.

Rank	Last Week	Move	Team	Record
1	1	-	Geelong	2 – 0
Ottens injury not as bad as first thought and should be able to cover him. Didn’t play their best vs a much better Richmond, but got the 4 points
2	3	Up 1	St Kilda	2 – 0
Two impressive wins. Any time you go to Adelaide and beat the Crows you aren’t going down in the Ranking. Will get more from Riewoldt in future weeks
3	4	Up 1	Western Bulldogs	2 – 0
Hard fought win against the Roos. Brad Johnson in good form and ably helped by Hill. Showed they can win a slower paced game, too
4	5	Up 1	Carlton	2 – 0
Gibbs is playing out of his skin, and number 5 aint too bad either. In some ways will need to wait till round 4 and 5 to prove they deserve higher place in the Ranking
5	9	Up 4	Brisbane	1 – 1
And now for the rest. Ran the Blues close in the end. If Bradshaw continues to fire and Rich living up to his award winning week, could have reason to stay here for a long time
6	6	-	Adelaide	1 – 1
Held there spot. A loss to the Saints isn’t anything to be sneezed at. The biggest story for them are coming off the field with the Bock incident and injures too Knights and Hentschel. The good news is that they have the Dockers
7	10	Up 3	North Melbourne	1 – 1
Like above, a loss to the dogs isn’t the worst form. Played very well. Campbell and Thomas are dangerous up forward and Harding enjoying his new role. Ziebell played better.
8	8	-	Collingwood	1 – 1
Did what they had too. Forward line started to click but still Medhurst can improve. Fraser starting to live up to his potiental
9	12	Up 3	Sydney	1 – 1
Good Win against the undermaned Hawks. Jolly, Goodes, Kirk and Hall all played well. Injures could be telling though.
10	2	Down 8	Hawthorn	0 – 2
Interesting fact had the youngest team on the park last week. Not time to hit the panic button yet but if they want to have any chance this week need some players back.
11	11	-	West Coast	1 -1
Maybe deserved to rise. Strong performance at home. Adam Selwood stood up and perhaps we should have picked him in our Dream team!
12	7	Down 5	Port Adelaide	1 -1
If you’re going to talk tough during the week you can’t get beat by the Eagles. Need more targets up forward, Motlop can’t do it alone
13	13	-	Essendon	1 – 1
They had a good win but come on, it was Freo (more on that later). Story is the kids, Zaharakis and Quinn played well.
14	16	Up 2	Richmond	0 – 2
Better performance but have to make this the norm. Brown, Richo, Deledio and Bowden lead the way. The Kids must continue to improve!
15	14	Down 1	Melbourne	0 – 2
Another good start but again feel away. Davey enjoying the run down back but need to find forwards. Cale Morton is a good one!
16	15	Down 1	Fremantle	0 – 2
Suprised? No. We shouldn’t be (although I still picked them! Why? Why?). Palmer continues to impress but new boy Hill is struggling. Harvey says he won’t be dropped. We will see.

AFL Round 2 Results – Did we learn anything?

Molly — Mon, 06 Apr 2009 00:44:11 +0000

Saints, Cats, Blues and Bulldogs all remained undefeated and the Hawks, Tigers, Dockers and Demons remain winless. The rest are 1-1. I was suprised by quite a few of the results (Sydney beating the Hawks not being 1 of them) and I see some upheaval in the PowerRankings this week. The grand finalists from last year continue to have injury worries but the Cats seem to have it under control. Many are asking if the Hawks have to worry? Of course they would prefer to be winning but the fact of the injuries is more of the concern then the loses. I am sure to hear more on who should be higher Saints or Bulldogs and the Blues have done what they have too to be considered in that list! Round 5 could be the round that sorts that one out (assuming no hiccups before hand). Any way, more on that later in the week. Too the results

St Kilda (15 – 11 – 101) defeated Adelaide (10 – 9 – 69)

Geelong (15 – 15- 105) defeated Richmond (13 – 7 –85)

Collingwood (17 – 15 – 117) defeated Melbourne (10 – 4 – 64)

Carlton (28 – 11 – 119) defeated Brisbane (15 – 10 – 100)

Sydney (22 –11 – 143) defeated Hawthorn (15 – 15 – 105)

Essendon (16 – 13 – 109) defeated Fremantle (10 – 11 – 71)

Western Bulldogs (11 – 14 – 80) defeated North Melbourne (9 – 11 – 65)

West Coast (19 – 11 –125) defeated Port Adelaide (10 – 15 – 75)

AFL Teams – Round 2, 2009

Molly — Thu, 02 Apr 2009 05:29:00 +0000

Round 1 was fantastic! There are some interesting injury stories from the week so DreamTeam and Supercoach Coaches will be waiting to see what Rookies are playing and which ones got dropped. While we are talking Dreamteam and SuperCoach, don’t forget to listen to the Coaches Box AFL Dreamteam/SuperCoache podcast for the week! So when I get the teams, I will add them here. Keep up dating it to get the latest teams!
