Forgot to change the team - poor management and paid the price.

Yeah, I wondered what happened.

And the Dogs don't know what they are doing. They have one ruck and it's Minson...

Bring back Hudson!!

Robbo 24 - Corey & Vince hold some interest.

Check out my list & throw up an offer.

Riv, im not to sure we can get a deal done. I'm only really keen on Pendlebury, but I don't see you handing him over cheaply. You are short on rucks at the moment. I could throw in Griffin/Hampson to get something done?

Corey and Vince also interest me Robbo. Looking to add a decent mid to my mix. RR.

RR, Roughead interests me, as do Enright and O'Keefe. Straight swap for any of those?

Well done RR. A well deserved top spot all yours.

No Sandi, no Dan.

my mob was hammered in a lacklustre, bruise free performance, struggled, with cotchin, watson and newman on the sidelines and a late withdrawal of franklin my team didnt have the quality to even compete, also buckley not playing wasnt helpful.

RR list has great depth too

Cheers Dappa and MadMelb, nice to be breathing the fresh top-o-the-ladder air. My stars seem to be aligning at the moment. Roughy and Kennedy in rare form up forward and I made some hard calls on trading Waite and Dal Santo out to get greater depth across the park.

Swan out for a couple of weeks will make it tough to stay up there and I'm a bit worried about Eth38 ... looks to be the bolter!

RR - Waite & Dal Santo they look familiar.

Definately a valuable lesson that all that glitters is not always Gold.

2011 has been a steep learning curve in UF.

Demonland 7 - Very impressive victory this weekend.

8 - 1 if you dont mind.

Rolled by 1 Kick, 4 HB, 5 Marks, 1 FF & 2 FA

Its a fine line between pleasure & pain this game.

At 4 - 7 going to be tough from here however I wont surrender, will keep punching on all season.

Now any interest in Robbie Gray?

Posted

You have McEvoy...where as I have Derickx :)

Anyway, good match. Having McKenzie back is huuuuuuuuge for me, should start winning tackles and free kicks for just about every game from now on.

Edit: Just checked the player rankings for my team, and I like it:

McKenzie 19

Bartel 24

Boak 46

McGlynn 58

Mumford 60

Garlett 67

Chaplin 80

Hodge 86

Byrnes (predicted 105, fit to play this week)

Savage 117

Gee they're impressive numbers. McKenzie back is a massive, massive in in the form he's in. I think many steered clear because they didn't think he'd get fit and stay fit, even with lots of game time. But 25 touches, and 8+ tackles, that'll have him deeply ensconced in the top 100 in the league the rest of the year. Huge pickup.

I had tried to trade to eth38 for Jordie a number of times. No cigar.

Scully. Just at the minute is more of a chance to blow up. Trengove is ultra consistent, and is coming off 3 weeks rest.

I'm losing to Scarlett.

No offence, Scarlett.

Jeeeeeez... OMR... Any danger of a free against anytime soon?!!!!

My Lads are playing to strict instruction this week.

Do not give away any stupid free's or be delisted.

& the forwards 20 sausage rolls already if you dont mind.

Game still alive with Luke Ball versus Pendles & Max Gawn tomorrow.

Ditto. Ouch 8-1 loss to RR. Mundy now Gawn for 5 weeks. Double ouch.

Yeah, but I just experienced my loss to West Coast.

Edit: Up for trading. Need some player who are going to rack up the disposals, preferably not midfielders as I'm set with Bartel, Hodge, Boak and McKenzie in there, unless good offers are made. Feel free to check out my list and make some offers.

[censored], I did it again.

Can everyone who reads this veto the trade between me and OMR...again? Clicked accept by accident.

Or JACKATTACK, you're the league manager, can't you cancel it or something?

OMR, I was going to say neither of those players were what I was looking for.

I voted against it based on your request. Have a good match.

As the league administrator I don't think it is my place to involve myself in mistaken trades. It's really up to each club to not accidentally trade players away. And really the world won't end if you lose a player like that. It might seem unfair to you but personally i don't give a stuff about your club despite it being the (equal) oldest in our league. However, you'll be happy to know I can offer compensation for your loss, I found a sock in my backyard that was ripped to pieces shortly before passing through the digestive system of my golden retriever, consider it yours.

But seriously I can't cancel this trade, but I have voted against it, and I think if it goes through before this week I can switch it back. But i'm not exactly sure how this feature works so I can't make any promises.

Re-posting this message I just put up on the UF noticeboard....

Suffered my first serious injury blow this week with big Roughy going down for the season.

Looking to trade up for a decent KPF.

Trav Cloke would be ideal, or a Pavlich or even a Tippett. If you've got a KPF you're willing to look at trading, have a look through my list and make me an offer.

Cheers, RR

I just voted against the trade and it looks like its disappeared. You owe me Eth. Give me Ben McGlynn and we're even B)

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
