Ultimate Footy 2013 - Norm Smith League

There is an opportunity to change, however doing so leaves an opportunity open for a kind of half cheating. Where you can play a player in your emergency list in the first game to see how he goes then remove a player from your primary list if the original one went well, and the emergency will fill the empty spot, effectively meaning you can see a player's performance before choosing to play them.

Not really cheating if everyone knows the rules and can do it. Makes it easier because you don't know who's going to play on Sunday when the round starts on Friday.

 

Look, it sucks when we have a split round like this but I am happy to keep it as is.

Screw it, we all have emergencies.


Stewart Crameri was horrible for me. Kicked a goal but struggled to find the pill. Getting subbed in the 3rd didn't help. This bloke was great last year, the coaching staff at OMR have put him on early season notice. Hoping Jack Darling rips it up tonight.

 

Interesting game JA has developed now.The scoring makes it.

I agree J C B, definitely different strategies needed in 2013. I wish I had started Tyrone Vickery this round. If he keeps up tonight's form he should turn out to be a Ultimate Footy game breaker.

Jack Riewoldt - 4 points......... Not quite the output required from my gun full forward, when scores are now really important. Going to be a close one JCB

Agree- but feel you will have the upper hand in the end.I have a weak forward line in particular without SJ.

Great to beat last year's premiership coach.One of my best efforts ever..Or at least most satisfying.

can i get that trade vetoed, daughter was on the computer pushing buttons.

Lol


Despite the loss, I'm glad I've been promoted to reigning premier. There's always a silver lining.

Well done RPFC. Its a fine line between pleasure & pain this season.

Congats to all winners in Round 3

3 Rounds down & I am 0 - 3. my season is rapidly heading south.

I have lost 1 of my Rookie keepers for the rest ot he season (Jonno Patten)

Time for drastic measure's - Swan, Jack & Goldstein excluded all other players are tradeable this week.

Check out the list & fire away.

I need to change the dynamics of my list, I wont be rolling over with stupid offers so would like to keep it real, however unlike Neeldy, I intend to act now

before losing becomes ingrained in 2013

To robbo24 - sorry you didn't get an explanation for the reject of Danger Mouse for Redden (I blame the internet). Player position changes are coming up on Wednesday and I thought I would wait that out as I reckon a couple of mine might change.

So I won't trade until that is revealed.

The decision to play one or two ruckmen each week is going to be a decisive factor in a lot of games.

I agree. Losing Kreuzer doesn't help either. :mad:

Be my guest and play two ruck an this week.Need all the help I can get.

ThanksRR- you are so kind to an old geriatric.

Well done RPFC, was coming home quickly just not quite enough. Dangermouse kicking a few was the difference.

Yeah, I have decided to trade him though because I am an idiot.

I am 4 and 0 but my List Manager is taking a gamble...

Redden, Thompson, and Walker for Danger, N.Riewoldt, and Ziebell...

At least I have a scapegoat...

 

Not sure about the RPFC / Robbo 24 trade. At 0-4 and top of the table seems very risky from RPFC. Time will be the judge however Robbo 24 gets the chocolates for mine in that exchange. Team OMR have finally arrived on the winners list in 2013. After two very narrow losses in the 1st 3 rounds The sleeping giant is now wide awake. Well done to all other victors in round. 4..

The reason from my end is that Ziebell is so inconsistent and Danger Mouse is tagged to high heaven but it is a risky play I will admit.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
