I'm in!!

I'm unable to admin it as there'll be patches where I'm unavailable to view things regularly during the year. Happy to guide this thread until some brave soul steps forward, though..

Sorry RR same goes for me, expecting my first little Demon in the very near future (due next week) - pretty sure my play book will rather full without putting my hand up to lead. I'm sure someone will step in for JA this year

I'm in!!

Great, added.

12 in the ring. 6 undecided.

I'm in.

Would love to join if any free spots come up.

I'm in.

Which team were you entered as last season 7-UP?

Would love to join if any free spots come up.

I'll put you down on the waitlist Stinga, along with Deeflog. We should know within fortnight who's in and who's out and if any spots open up. Otherwise, there'll be the Robbie Flower League to try or even a third league if there's enough interest.

either a 16 team league or as i think j/a stated change the starting number of players.

What about teams that played in Robbie flower league last season?

Who was your admin? Get it going again.

I noticed that we have to sign up to fairfax to play UF this season - isn't that a kick in the groin...

Anyway, I will do that at some point and we have to figure out how to do the keeper stuff. And I have to remember my keepers...

Dangerfield was one. Did i still have Ziebell? And who the hell were my youngsters?

I am stepping aside, so someone else can take my place.

Too many disputes and suspect trades last year for me to continue. By no means a reflection on JA, he did a great job under trying conditions

I couldnt see myself going through all that again. the 1st year was great, the 2nd year ??.... couldnt end quick enough.

I'll probably regret it at some stage this year, as there are some tough coaches to play against.

I wish everyone good luck.

okay, i'm still not committing to admin, but i set up the league.

now if you sign up for your fairfax account, then link your account with your old one i think you can join in. this way you can select your keepers from last year within the system.

if someone can confirm this it would be helpful

NOTE: If you were not in the norm smith league last year please do not register: If there is a spare spot available I'll invite people in later.

Ok done.

I think I may have to search Land for our old thread to figure out my keepers...

Once you have logged on, you nominate your keepers. This is done on the site, under the 'pre-season draft' tab.

Remember:

2 keepers

& 2 rookie keepers (born in 1991 or later)

Once you have nominated I will confirm it by entering it into the draft system. No need to rush I won't confirm until just before the draft.

For those of you interested, there is a possibility of trading players (keepers only) and future draft picks if you want. But it will have to be submitted to our new admin guy.

OK the sign up process is quite painless.

You can link your 2012 Account easily and dont stress about forgetting your final 2012 player list it comes straight up.

Keeper selection is also straight forward via the Pre Season Draft tab.

Draft date is set at 10th March commencing @ 7.00pm

Unfortunatey I wont be the brave soul stepping forward to takeover the admin duties from Jack Attack either.

I will be OS way to often in 2013 to do the role justice.

Looking forward to revisiting some fierce rivalries this season.

Now has anyone seen my old mate JCB31??????????

Signed up, new team name - Jakovich lives - keeps the Jako theme going

im excited, nominated my keepers, a bit annoyed that deledio has now been moved to only a midfielder, but i guess it is the truth!

deledio, franklin

bastinac, golby

they will be my keepers for the year

tough to say goodbye to kennedy, judd, cornes, kerr, sewell and barlow

Do I take that to mean you weren't in the Norm Smith League last season 7-UP. Do you want to be waitlisted in that case?

Sorry RR same goes for me, expecting my first little Demon in the very near future (due next week) - pretty sure my play book will rather full without putting my hand up to lead. I'm sure someone will step in for JA this year

No worries Jako and congrats on bringing a new Demon into the world!

Sorry to hear this Deevoted. You were a valued Norm Smith Coach. Are you quite sure you want to relinquish that prestigious mantle? I have a feeling things will be a bit more settled this season.

With the draft on March 10, we should probably set a deadline of March 1 for entries into the league. If you have a change of heart, you have up until then.

Excellent JA. Are you quite sure you don't want to admin? I thinbk with things more firmly set in stone and Rpfc's mooted 'dummy spit' rule, there will be far less turmoil this season.

Just a thought on our selection of keepers ... it may be better to hold off on doing this until as close to draft day as possible.

It would be a disaster if one of them (or two or three of them!) when down with season-enders during the NAB cup.

Would love to play if there is room.

I have fixed this for you now 45.

I've started it. There really isn't much to do after the draft, so I guess I can continue on. But I, like others, can't guarantee I'll be around much this year, I will still play the game, but after the draft I probably won't spend much time dealing with the questions and arguments so much.

The system simply allows you to nominate keepers from last year, in reality I still have to set your lineups pre-draft. So I don't want them in too late. Give me a week before the draft for me to sort it out. Also I suggest you nominate your keepers now anyway so that in case you miss the cut-off you will at least have players you picked. Also this allows me to set an indicative lineup so that we can start to see what the draft will look like. (I think this will work,but the options to set your keepers opens on the 7th Feb so i'm not 100% on it just yet.

If someone forgets to nominate they will be autopick keepers, the highest ranked players from your team. (same with rookies).

Summary: Set your keepers now, but you can change them up until the week before the draft.
