I'm going to allow changes up until the day before the draft, I just ask if everyone can pick them asap so I can make sure that we're good to go. The last thing I want to do is assign someone their keepers if they forget to do it.

As our Manager ,I feel with your allowance above you are bringing a lot of work on yourself re the tightness of time before draft time..

It is my suggestion that we close off our concluded keeper/ rookie picks by 12pm, 28th February 2014to allow all players(coaches) to look at whom are available to pick from after all selected keepers/ rookies are locked away.

Also,this gives all a weekend to look through it..

This is my recommendation to allow a good transition

Jarka,

I want to request you to seriously think about bringing in rules and regulations to qualify for coaching in 2015, before the start of this season.

I am suggesting that one of these is,all coaches have to qualify their rookies before finals start in our 2014 season. This will allow a follow through in 2015.this covers the issue accordingly.Also, if a coach does not continue in the 2015, it brings fairness to a new coach, and is fair to all.

Some may have other considerations for you to consider before season starts

Cheers

Only negative with this is injuries over summer, meaning that it could result in one of your 4 keepers being out for the year, but I like the idea

JCB, I'm comfortable with allowing a change to a keeper up until the day before the draft due to an injury, the only thing I ask is for eveyone to assign their keepers now so everyone can start planning for the draft. Injuries have much more of an impact in Ultimate Footy compared to Supercoach

OMR, thank you for that and a good suggestion however that would go against everything that's been discussed and decided on in the past with regards to the keepers. I don't want to mess around with the rules too much, last year the comp worked really well under the rules we had in place.

Have pained over Shuey, Ebert or Prestia.

Don't like Ebert so I ditched him and can't decide between Prestia and Shuey. Prestia had a better season and is still up and coming - but may find it difficult to back it up - whereas Shuey was relatively quiet but had injury concerns.

I may change it - have to keep an eye on them in pre-season.

We're now waiting on two teams for their keepers, which is a bit frustrating considering how many requests I've made. I'm going to be pretty busy over the next couple of weeks so I need the keepers set for the last two teams by this Sunday, if you don't I can't guarantee that I'll remember to assign them for your team. No more warnings or requests, this is your last chance.

Thanks MM, as previously mentioned I'll allow changes to the keepers up until the day before the draft due to injuries. Everyone has until this Sunday to finalize their keepers, the reason for this is that it gives everyone a week to work on their draft strategy but if anyone changes their keepers then the 'pre-draft rankings' section has to be redone. I don't want anyone to be disadvantaged due to a late injury but I also don't want people to lose all their work unnecessarily.

Enjoy the holiday!

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
