Ultimate Footy 2013 - Norm Smith League

Featured Replies

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.

 

How far away am I from this being my reality RP? Can't be far off!

You are 4 games out with 7 remaining...


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!

I remember it well.

 

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

Potentially the person who finishes 9th or 1oth could be the biggest winner come draft time next year

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

no worries

Sorry-- pressed wrong button...brain not working well at the moment...having surgery tomorrow...will be back to you early next week with a proposal...

What happened..I answered your offer...named the player ,then pressed accept..I should have rejected your offer - the gave youa new proposal...sorry for making you look BAD.

have a great round..be in contact- possibly tuesday - so you can play new player next round..all going well after surgery.

Sorry all...Brain not working well at the moment...thanks for your understanding & thoughts..

Really appreciated...

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

:( missed the chance to hit Veto.

On another note hope things are going well for you jcb - they do seem to be doing nicely in the Ulitimate Footy world!

Appreciate your thoughts...thank God for Ultimate Footy - keeps my spirits up....

Best weekend ever this one..adheres got up and in Ultimate footy had my most satisfying win & stuck it up HT.

Craig bird lost me my match to robbo! Played out of his skin

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 ?....

 

Got up and beat OMR....by a heap...proud of my team...thought we were well and trully gone.

i've been smashed, kept my team together all season now i think its time to shake things up a bit

  • NON-MFC: Round 07

    Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Fremantle

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
