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 ?....

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
