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

One extra rule - if you threaten to leave because of any issue you are having after the rules have been setup for ages - you are out of the league.

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 ?....

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
