Ultimate Footy 2014 - Norm Smith League

[Old Man Rivers 326]

Jarka - I have a good mate I can vouch for who would be an ideal replacement for any vacant team in our great comp! He is a member of Demonland , his user name is " I Luv Tingay". Place him on the waiting list as he is super keen & lives and breaths his fantasy sport.

[Jarka 767]

OMR, he sounds like he'd be a worthy adversary, 'I Luv Tingay' is first in line.

[H_T 3,043]

Ok, I'm in now. We have 10 so far.

[GM11 776]

Been playing the Robbie Flower League but I'm not sure there's any action there. Love to join in if there's a spot.

[Jarka 767]

The state of play right now is that 10 have signed up, two have pulled out but two have asked to join, so that gives us 12 so far. We're waiting on DL7, Robbo, SnomeD and Stinga, I'll send pm's and we'll give them a couple of days before throwing out more invites.

If you'd like to join please let me know and I'll add you onto the waiting list

I want to get the league finalised asap so we can start to work on the draft date, at this stage it is going to be a Monday night, starting at 7:00pm, plan to go with the same format, 1 minute per selection. Speak now if this is going to be a problem

[Jarka 767]

Can anyone remember dl7's username here?

[rpfc 28,390]

Once assigned a team - any newbies - select 2 players you wish to keep, and two players born in 1992 or later. You will understand once Jarka has assigned you a team.

[GM11 776]

Thanks Jarka- the Galahs are in.

[Arrow 1,257]

Hey Jarka, I'm DL7, last year I was disappointing, I just can't put enough time like I should so please open up my spot. That said I've had so much fun playing this and thanks to all the guys for the banter along the way!

[brunoc 3]

Hi guys, I was in the Robbie Flower league (like GM11) last two years, would love to play as well. I'm pretty good though, just warning you!!

[rpfc 28,390]

Hey Jarka - can you have a UF league with ~10 players?

In Super Coach they force you to have 18 players and if you league hits the cut off with fewer than that it will put randoms in there...

I can't find a definitive answer on the UF website other than it is very customisable.

[rpfc 28,390]

Ok, answered my own question - you can have between 4 and 18 players...

Who the hell would have a league with 4 players?

Anyway, it is a way better setup than SC.

Hi all, this is I Luv Tingay. Thanks to OMR for talking me up for the UF Comp.... I promise I wont disappoint. I look forward to a great year in fantasy land and getting my team together. Good luck all.

[Jarka 767]

Agreed RPFC, it's much better that SC, I really like the versatility of it. 12 would be an ideal number but I think 16 also works well.

Thanks Arrow, thanks for letting us know, pity you can't continue mate.

That means Brunoc is in and now we're just waiting on s-t-i-n-g-a.

Once we've settled on the playing list I'll assign teams to the new guys and then we can set our keepers. To the new guys I'll expalin this later. We also have to decide the final two spots of the draft order but I may just flip a coin.

Dark Days have signed in

[7-UP 107]

I was in Robbie Flower League, i want to find out if I can join this league if there are any spots left

Hi 7-up, we may have one spot free, we're just waiting for one more person to commit. You're first in line though.

Cheers

Team, I've enlisted again but can't be convinced that I can give it 100% and, not being very good to begin with, I think my spot would better serve someone hoping to join - they'd probably do a better job.

You're not playing for your country!

Just a bit of fun...

That's if it is fun...

Gee wiz, I will have to give him a great induction.

It looks like s-t-i-n-g-a hasn't logged onto demonland since last November, he's the last one we're waiting on. I've sent a pm and we'll give him a bit longer to come back
