Ultimate Footy 2014 - Norm Smith League

[Jarka 767]

While we're waiting for Jackattack to make an appearance it's probably a good idea to get things rolling and recap on the rules, draft order etc. I can't log into last years details so I don't have the correct draft order that RPFC calculated it should be. I also haven't created the new League yet, I'll leave that to whoever will be running it.

Draft Order:

1 - HT,

2 - Wrecker (45HG),

3 - I Luv Tingay,

4 - 7-up,

5 - Jarka's Jokers,

6 - Jako Lives,

7 - The Galahs (GM11),

8 - M_M

9 - Snomeds

10 - Dark Days (Brunoc)

11 - JCB

12 - Robbo

13 - RPFC

14 - RR

15 - Scarlett

16 - OMR

The teams consisted of:

Backs: 3 (1 emerg)

Centres: 4 (1)

Rucks: 1 (1)

Forwards: 3 (1)

Utility: 1 (1)

Bench: 3

Starting players: 12

Bench: 3

Emergerncies: 5

Total: 20

Scoring:

Kicks: 3

HB's: 2

Marks: 3

HO's: 2

Tackles: 3

Free kick diff: 1

Score: 4

Goal kick Acc: 1

Total points: 19

Things we need to decide on:

• Starting teams
• Draft date
• Draft order (RPFC rules:
• Confirmation of rules
• Anything else you want clarified

New Rule

At the end of the season your list must contain 2 rookies for the following year

I'll keep this opening post updated with any changes.

The draft is structured with subesquent rounds reversed so HT will have 1, 32, 33, 64, 65, etc

Draft Order: 1 - HT, 2 - 45HG, 3 - Hollywood, 4 - STINGA, 5 - Jarka's Jokers, 6 - Jako Lives, 7 - DL7, 8 - M_M

I have written down the first 8...any help with how the finals finished? I came either 3rd or 4th from memory.

Thanks for letting experiment with the Percentage Determinator. It wasn't perfect but it kept people trying to win till the end which was the point.

[rpfc 28,779]

I can't quite remember my team (lol) but my keepers would be Goddard, Sidebottom, Evans, and Greene.

If you didn't have two kids that qualify, bad luck.

I've created the new League and the password is the same from last year.

Name: Norm Smith League

Password: DNALNOMED

You need to log in and link your account to the previous years team and then you'll be able to set your keepers. We'll look at the lock out time for the keepers once everyone is on board and all the teams are assigned so no need to do it right now, just please check if you can see your previous team. i'll try and send a pm to everyone as a reminder.

At this stage I'm looking at a Monday night for the draft, unsure of dates just yet. Please let me know if there is a Monday coming up that doesn't suit.

[Jarka 767]

I've started on the draft order, if you can remember where you finished please advise, if we all can't remember or there are disputes then I will set the order using an alternate method.

I'll have a look later tonight. I will have to revisit, I'm struggling to recall some of the players. Then I guess once all are in attendance, a date for the draft will have to be set to suit all.

If I am bored enough maybe the old thread will enlighten us about where the top 8 finished...

Just a terrible memory when it comes to this stuff.

Won my NFL Fantasy League though...

I had a look and it doesn't really give away much apart from Scarlett coming 2nd

So Scarlett Pick 15. I got the double chance so I think I would be Pick 14. I also lost to scarlett from memory. OMR beat robbo24? (Pick 13?) Not sure on that.

JCB i think went out in the semis so he would be Pick 12 and snomeD, RR, and JA should know how they finished?

[Jarka 767]

I'll update the OP when I get home tonight, I see some others have signed up on The Age. For some reason I'm unable to edit my posts at work.

Glad to see you are all ready to go and that it all went well.

You actually made it to the Semis as you finished the season on top.

As for the NFL win, it's caused more headaches than celebration as these blokes in the league went a bought an ugly trophy that I have to get engraved myself...so I win and I am out of pocket...

Looking forward to getting back to real footy, no offence to NFL which I do like.

[Jarka 767]

Please do not join up if you weren't involved last year, we may have some drop out so if you're interested in joining up we can start a waiting list

[JACKATTACK 17]

Thought I should let you guys know that I won't be able to continue this year's ultimate footy, it has been fun but my time is up.Thanks to Jarka for taking it on, and I'm glad to see it continuing with good support.

Good luck to you all, especially you Jarka.

Edit: just spoke to Hollywood, he's out also.
