By the looks of it s-t-i-n-g-a isn't coming back, I've sent him a pm but no response. He also hasn't logged onto demonland since November so I think it's safe to presume he's not coming back. This means 7-up is in, please log in mate. So, to the new guys:

7-up

Dark days (brunoc)

I Luv Tingay

Galahs (GM11)

I'll randomly assign a team to you, please pick a number from 1 to 4, if a number gets taken before you then choose another from 1 to 4. I hope that makes sense ><

This is a keeper league, you get to keep 4 players from the previous season. 2 can be any age you want and 2 must be born in 1992 or greater ie 2 matures and 2 rookies. (Can someone else confirm that that is the right year for rookies?), everyone else please post their rookies, once 7-up logs in I'll start assigning the rookies and then set the draft order.

I'm going to allow everyone to change their keepers right up to the draft just in case of any late injuries and at this stage the draft will be on a Monday night, starting at 7:00pm with 1 minute per pick.

My nominated rookies are:

Marc Murphy

Jordan Lewis

Jeremy Cameron

Brodie Grundy

Any queries or concerns now is the time to speak up. In case of a dispute I'm going to have the final say however can I have someone volunteer to assist with decision making? Just to have more transparency in any disputes that may come up throughout the season.

It is also my believe that the two rookie picks needed to be born in 1992 or later..

Wow JCB, that's two very good rookies

 

OK I'll take 2.

That leaves 7-up with 3, good luck guys, I'll assign the teams shortly.

By the looks of it you can assign your own keepers so can everyone do so, and remember you can change them up until the draft day if you get an injury.

Couple of things, there's a new rule which is to save some of the 'robust discussions'that occurred last season. Every team must have 2 rookies listed for the next season, ie born 1993 or later and we're going to have pre draft trading available again for anyone who wishes to have a shot. Don't think we had one last year.

Question about the free agents, can anyone pick them up or claim a rookie to be their rookie?

No, you have to have had picked one up last year before the end of the season.

Thems the breaks, and will be again this year.

The simple answer to this 'debate' was what happens, and will happen - if you don't have two born in 1993 or later, you forfeit those keepers.

This 'forcing people' to have players is unenforcable - if you don't pay attention - you won't have eligible keepers.

The answer - pay attention.

Totally correct...I warned all players before the finals last year, that if, they did not have their rookies in place for this year ..then they forfeited their rights....as they say, stiff [censored].

Firstly,great job...your get up and go is outstanding...but do not get too tired to quickly,by the way the rookies have to be born in 1992 or later to qualify.

We started of in 1990" ,then last year 1991 so it has to be in1992

The first year we played we did not have keepers at all.

Good luck to you all, especially you Jarka.

JA...thanks for everything...also give my regards to your brother ..Dapper

All the best


How do we find last years lists for the keepers/rookies?

H_T, click on the 'Pre-Season Draft' tab then click on 'Nominate Rookies', your team from last year will be there.

To the new guys I've assigned your keepers, have a look under the 'Pre-season Draft' tab and then 'Draft Results' to see your rookie picks. If you want to make a change just let me know

Jarka - I nominated Cotchin & Watts as keepers. I notice Scully & Wright also on the list.

Neither qualify as "rookies" & I'd rather drop them off anyway.

 

Nominated Ablett, Kennedy, and rookie Treloar as my keepers.

Thanks Brunoc & GM11, I'll make the changes.

Having teams without 4 keepers is going to make it interesting for the draft order, I'll see what I can do to fix it

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
