Ultimate Footy 2013 - Norm Smith League

Recommended Posts

Nearing the time in which my Competitive Pecentage Indicator kicks in...

When a team is mathematically out of finals contention I am going to grab the percentage and the W/L/D tally and measure who increases theirs the most relative to their original percentage.

It will reward the team that does the best after they learn they cannot make the finals. And it is relative to how they went while they were still in contention.

I think I am more excited about this than the actual games.

Which is pathetic...

You've definitely added a new dimension to fantasy footy rpfc, it's going to be very interesting to see how it unfolds, especially if the person who finishes last ends up with the 8th pick

It should ensure no easy games and no-one giving up.

Can't make the finals? There is a No.1 pick on offer!

At first I was a bit iffy about it but the idea has really grown on me, especially after getting in and experiencing the differences that this type of fantasy footy offers up.

I could throw a spanner in by throwing as much percentage over the next fortnight as possible before selecting full sides again.

But I won't...!

It's the only way to tank in my system but you are still a chance 45 - still a chance!

Remember 1900 - the Dees won the flag after finishing last in the H&A season!

Not sure if sitting in the 8 with a %'age of 94 is good or bad for me here... I've limped over the line a fair few times for an unexpected win :)

Slightly related - and I'm sure it was discussed earlier, but are the keepers going to be the same next year as this year? As in 2 old + 2 new

As I understand - we will keep the '2 any age and 2 U/21' concept for our keepers.

Assistance Please-- MM made me a proposal whilst I am currently having cancer treatment.

I pushed the wrong button and accepted the trade whilst I thought I was making him another offer.

Please reject this as you will see this is a mistake...

MM - when this is rejected I will make you the offer you originally asked for

Thank you ALL

That trade made No sense at all - I also vetoed. MM would of win the flag if that went through.

Don't worry...I would not lat him win the flag, we have an eye on it....take care & sincere thanks for your care...but not your trades...

the trade was not meant to be accepted, and was rather a method of conversation with jcb about a possible trade that we could work out

Round 15 becoming a disaster for several of us...I am getting a belting from OMR...made a very bad coaching move by picking up Tarrant and not playing him...well, always next week, but will still fight on.Having two undisciplined players in SJ & Thomas ( both not playing does not help the cause...)

Having Wellingham & Clark joining me list will help a little, may trade out Clark this week for a defender...Any interest ?....

    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
