One of the most entertaining and useful sites on the Net about AFL and more particular DreamTeam is DreamTeam Talk. On of the hosts and driving forces is Warnie. He has become a legend amongst the DreamTeam community and is in fact now part of the team that puts the Gold into SuperCoach Gold! I like to call him the Assistant Coach as he is one of the voices behind the advice on the Assistant Coach section of the DreamTeam site. So of course when putting together a predictions series, he was one of the first I asked. Here is his thoughts!
