The Team Review for each team is following a simple setup this year.

By position, players have been ranked as either:
PREMIUM - Bonafide Star
POTENTIAL PREMIUM - Could be Bonafide Star
VALUE - Good value pick
AT THE MARK - About right in terms of cost
SUB 200s - Any player on the main list costing <$200k
ROOKIE LIST - On the Rookie List at start of year
INJURED - Player who is injured for the medium-long term

Just to ensure that you keep yourself involved in our Competitions this year,...
Alright, cause the majority of games were played out off stage, Im gunna write a quick review of the one that was played, then dot the rest of this weekends talking points out in point form. And man, was there some doozies!

A BIG game this weekend, with the top story for the game being BBBBBBH and his 7 goal haul. Gotta be on the radar now!
Goddard and Riewoldt have thrown out the gauntlet to everyone who has made the decision not to play them with a 99 and 113 respectively.
Higgins scored himself 105 points with only 5 kicks (and 9 handballs). Guarentee me 20 games and hell be a lock!
The biggest downer for the night was surely Fisher, ruling himself out for the first 4 rounds.

And the bullet points.
- Sam Fisher - Out for 4 -6 weeks with an ankle.
- Dean Cox - Didnt train. Rumour mill is running wild. Naitanui and maybe even Will Sullivan, come on dooooown.
- David Hille - Has come back very strong in his pre season games. Hille/Naitanui anyone? Could you be that daring even with Tippett covering?
- Robbie Gray - Looks to have done something to his hammy. No reports have come out to confirm it though, which seems strange. Must keep an eye on this one.
- Wonnaeamirri - Came back from injury, only to be re-injured. Avoid.
- Barry Hall kicked 7 in the NAB Grand final. Surely though if it takes kicking 7 to crack the ton, youve got to have question marks? Still looks to be fantastic value though.
- Heath Scotland injured a shoulder - "should be right for round 1"
- Apparently "Best and fairest winner Bernie Vince, veterans Andrew McLeod and Tyson Edwards, midfielders Scott Thompson and Nathan van Berlo, ruckmen Ivan Maric and James Sellar and forwards Brett Burton and Chris Knights all missed the clash with the Blues but are a chance to play against Fremantle." - So anyone with an eye on Adelaides fringe, watch out.
- Max Rooke, tendinitis. Should secure Hunt even more so in the line up.
- Sylvia, 8 weeks with a broken jaw - Scully and Trengove...
I couldnt resist ensuring Sheedy would get behind us.
I know I could have done better with the quote, something like "I wish I used tooserious" but hey its early on a Monday morning.

Hope your secret selections did well on the weekend!
Yes, weve been slaving away in the TooSerious dungeons to bring you all another competition.

<a href="http://tooserious.net/tipping.php?page=tipping">Footy Tipping[/url]. Brought to us by <a href="http://footysystembet.com.au/">FootySystemBet[/url]

Now, the thing I like about <a href="http://footysystembet.com.au/">FootySystemBet[/url], is that its uses a complex formula to pick solid betting based on a 3 week rolling somethingorother. Which sounds pretty close to what we do here. Its also, according to their stats, pretty darned awesome at picking winners and taking the moolah from the bookies over the season. So theres that. Well worth a look.

Back to our competition - its just like regular footy tipping but with a SuperCoach twist thrown in for good measure. You go through and pick your teams for the week <a href="http://tooserious.net/tipping.php?page=tipping">here [/url](youll also find a tab up the top there) but then instead of picking a game margin or score as a tie-breaker, you have to pick the highest SuperCoach scorer from the first game in the drop down box beneath. So, in Round 1, youll need to pick the player from Carlton or Richmond who you think will come away with the highest SuperCoach score out of the players from both teams, use the drop down box to select their name and enter a predicted score for them in the little square provided there next to their name.

Thanks to <a href="http://footysystembet.com.au/">FootySystemBet[/url], the tipping comp is FREE but were not playing just for pride and bragging rights. Rather, we have 5 subscriptions to their site to give away over the course of the season. Well get things off to a fun start by giving away a years subscription for each of the round winners in rounds 1, 2 and 3. The last two well be saving for a round winner at the end of the season and the overall winner for the season both valid for next year. So get on it.

(also, if anything funny happens with the...
