Ultimate Footy 2013 - Norm Smith League

Recommended Posts

I will have to move it, turns out I'm in NZ for a conference that weekend.

Enjoy NZ.

I am not sure but the 17th I will have a supercoach draft...

AFL starts on 22nd so maybe we do it on the 17th and I suck it up...

3rd might be a tad early...

RPFC - As of today I also have a SuperCoach Draft on the 17th March.

I am in favour of March 3rd , from memory we drafted much earlier in 2012

Over to the masses for input, my vote MARCH 3

the week long draft with 10 hours between picks could also be an option, if its hard to sure up a time!

it stops people from missing the draft and having to rely on their pre draft determined picks

The only problem with a long time between picks is that it's impossible to know how long you actually have.

If you've just had a pick and its ten hours between, your next pick might be 350 hours away or it could be less than an hour away. I think it needs to be short and sharp.

Yes, and mid-week is tough for me as I have footy training Tues and Thurs and bball Weds.

March 3 is ok - I mean, injuries pre-season are unfortunate but they happen...

That and it'd potentially take 6 months to complete the draft...

March 3 isn't good for me. I'm stupidly driving to Renmark to watch the Dees play. You can't punish me for this can you??

We can and will!

Look, I am good for Monday nights usually...

We could do the 18th?

How are Monday's?

And, IIRC, we can split it up should it get to 'long in the tooth' so to speak...

With people playing sport, maybe we could have this over 2 weekday evenings, starting at maybe 8:30? Have 2 minute time limit per picks between 8:30-10:30?

I think MOnday 18th is winning for me.

Slow drafts do not work, and I can't configure it like you have said here robbo.

ANy complaints about Monday? It is impossible to get everyone at once, this might have to do. 7:00pm is my preferred time, but happy to be guided.

Yes, 18th of March (I take it's not Mon 18th of Feb) is good by me. If we could push it back a bit from 7pm ie.8pm?

Last year I was in all sorts at 7pm (kids) and ended up with LeCras (knee)...lol (if you all remember - my fault I know) *sigh*

Still a fan of Sunday March 3rd.

If it has to be Monday 18th 7.00pm can we at least stick to 60 seconds between each pick.

This was so much better than our 1st attempt in 2011 @ 5 minutes between picks.

Prefer 7.00pm start if Monday.

I normally work 12 hours on Monday's so every chance of falling asleep mid draft if we start to much later.

JCB - Does not seem to have landed in the Comp yet?

Come on boy's we need to get around JCB and assist him with his entry.

Old Monster Head has been an integral part of this comp since day one, wouldn't be the same without him.

PS : Who's Hollywood? Happy to have him onboard just need him to identify via Demonland Name before we start sledging!

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k
