Ultimate Footy - Robbie Flower League

Featured Replies

I only just won - cbsmgu caught me on the kick count right at the end and was only three behind in the marks....thank goodness for Siposs!

 

Put me down for a vote for a keeper league at this stage. Since that's what the NSL is doing, I figure that's the best way to go for us as well. At least at this early stage.

Taking bets, which one of my top players will be injured next?

So far:

Nicoski

Embley

Osborne

Harbrow

Excuses, excuses.

You're not the only one to have copped injuries Striker, and they're hardly stars.


Just had to drop Josh Hill from my team, sure to suffer the Herald Sun curse. Oh wait, he doesn't play for Melbourne. Please disregard.

Question from a first-seasoner to the vets - when the trade deadline comes along, does that include cutting/signing players?

 

Also, prepared to offer an up/down trade for two players. I'll upgrade someone on a centre in exchange for them upgrading me on a forward. Prepared to offer Rischitelli, $cully or Thomas for the centre and Dixon or Breust for the forward.

Its only a deadline for trades. You can cut / sign right up until the very last week.

Yeah I was only a little bit annoyed at this result!

One F*^&king kick!

Why did I change the C from Rockliff to Lenny at the last minute!?!


My team is dees forever, I am lacking really good defenders in my team and I am willing to trade any player in my team ( yeah even Scott Pendlebury) to a good fair trade.

not really, because i have b. reilly who i have named in my centre, who is a back. and i have fisher to come back from injury

i have hanley, drummond, gram, lovett-murray, b.reilly, sam fisher, rance and suckling and mcpharlin as a sub

with b reilly now going back to defence, that is where i will play b.sewell.

Hi all. Well we’ve reached a well-earned mid-season break. Congrats to our half-way leader Stonecutters with an impressive 9-1 win loss record. And remarkably he’s done it with only making the 1 change so far.

It’s time to make some decisions about the future direction of the league. Cause I’m really not around much these days, I’ve decided to pass over the running of the league to Striker. I’ll still be actively involved in playing, and offering up my usual array of one-sided trades, and also I’ll give Striker a bit of a hand when needed.

Thanks all, and enjoy the break!

FINALLY! Hopefully Beams and Sidebottom keep tearing it up!

Erm, but Collingwood lose. Horribly.

Saigon saints here. If everyone could veto the trade between my team and Dave's demons. I have a legitimate excuse as Martin was suspended after the accepted trade.

Thanks

I've got no problems vetoeing this - if one of the two parties is not happy with a trade, i don't think it should go through.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
