Hey Deevoted

I would be keen to join if any vacancies left?

I haven't SuperCoached for last 2 years have been focusing on Ultimate Footy.

Keen to relaunch in 2016.

Welcome back, its been awhile. Heaps of spots left.  And still working on the Stynes League. I'll give it a bit more time for confirmations before juggling the other leagues around. In the meantime, sit tight and I'll PM your league code when Div 1 is sorted.

All I require atm is your team name. btw you can join the Group league now if you havent done so already (optional) 

Nice job on the training reports guys....  in fact too good!!   Left me with nothing other than to confirm it was pretty much what I had to report.

I will say Trenners is moving very well, Hogan has bulked up, his upper thighs are coming along nicely, that should help his kicking distance.

As a whole the group no longer has skinny runts that will be easliy pushed off the ball. (Apart from the tall new guys,they'll take more time to develop)

What impressed me most was the ball movement all over the ground in the Match Sim. Did NOT see one hospital handball, players were making space and running forward (finally)

Still some sloppy disposals that missed their target, until that improves more, we will kill momemtum when we have the ball. More times than not, they got it correct. I left feeling confident with what I seen. Its been awhile since I was able to attend a training session. Previously left feeling a bit more than peeved in what I watched. But not today, if they can carry that into a real game, we are going to put the wind up a few good teams that we have had trouble beating in the past. That is the key, doing it under pressure.

They have stopped running the guys into the ground with repeated running, its so good to see them moving the ball around by hand and foot.

Kinda reminded me of the late 80's when we played like a football team. 

Jonesy didnt look good, I doubt it was serious, but he walked off to the boundry and had his leg / knee worked on, he gave a yelp,when behind his knee was worked on. Only a guess on my behalf, but maybe a sore tendon behind the knee. He walked around for 10 mins then went inside.

Brayshaw looks like he may also have a knee complaint. He was sprinting hard, then stopped dead, Heard him say its a bit sore. Again a guess, when he loaded up the  knee to stop, it was a bit uncomfortable. Then had it strapped, did some sprints for about 20 mins then off came the strapping. 

So perhaps nothing more than a niggle.

I got a close look at Petracca. I will only say, if I had the ball and I seen him barrelling towards me, I would be wanting to get rid of it pretty quick.

He's built like the brick outhouse.

I'd be the last to hand out advice.  I was travelling well, up to the byes,when the wheels got a wobble (sitting 1200 overall), I missed the GAbblett / Rockcliff carnage. 80% of my rookies were firing. Only used a couple of trades. Then the treaded byes came and went along with my season. 

This year Salem, Petracca and Gawn are looking like starters. Last year I only had Hogan and Brayshaw then traded both out.

Gawn I hope stays fit, (I pray he stays fit) I'm not convinced to leave him for this year. Those knees make me gun shy.

Salem could be in for a good year. Petracca M/F shouldn't be overlooked.  

I cant see the value in Viney, $$ spent might be better served on a player than can bring home 120+ pts I don't think Viney has that in him 

I have M.King on the bench, which one? buggered if I know which one. Max I hope. But having 2 Dee Rucks isnt good for the byes.

I'm just throwing darts until the pre season kicks off.

Yes I logged in to SC that is why.

I clicked the link and registered and they said that they will notify me when the password new game starts. I clicked AFI and tried to login and they said incorrect user or password ???

I guess I just have to wait.

Too be honest I am not sure what's going there. You Can join the 'Melbourne Demons Group League' now. No Waiting.

Don't confuse it with your comp league, this Group League isnt a our comp league. Your league code with be sent when we finalise the Stynes league.

I best I can suggest is ....   login to SC, (using lasts years details) , then you should be asked to confirm your details (approx 5 questions) then click agree to the terms, and you are all set to go. Start selecting your team, if you get that far, then you know you have your correct login / password correct then try entering the Group code, or enter the full link and you should be added to the Group league. Other than all of that, anyone else shed some light on skills32 probs?

Thanks DV. Was stoked with my season last year in finishing 84th but I never actually considered myself a chance of taking out the main prize. I was in the top 800 for the whole season after a good start but came from around 500th with five weeks to go so I always felt like the gap was too much and was merely aiming for a top 100 finish.

Top 100 or thereabouts is not to be sneezed at, Thanks for sharing. 

AFL Fanatsy Dream Team is now open (2nd Feb)

Just now, skills32 said:

I logged in to SC but it won't accept the league code you sent. What now?

Good question. There are currently 12 teams that have joined the "Group League" . Perhaps click the link 1st, then login in. when requested.

Anyone else had any probs with the above link?  Or did you click the link and then login in? 

It seems everyone likes to play their cards close to their chest (Looking at the Stynes League here)

But if some want to discuss players selections or give , ask advice here is the place to do it.

I wouldnt mind hearing  Demon Spofforth  / Centimetre Perfect story on how he was feeling up to and  then, to fall just a tad over 800 pts short on taking out 1st prize in 2015.

Wizard of Ertz  ,  kurtneverdied  ,   GoldMember  ,   Wiseblood  ,   Micah   and    Duh 

I have you all confirmed as starters. 

just hang in there until we get the Stynes League sorted out, then things move fairly quickly after that.

Thanks for your efforts DeeVoted (I expect a reply acknowledging my gratitude).

Invite received. Ken's Colossi are in the Stynes League waiting to pounce....Viney style.

 

Ok, If you insist. I  acknowledge your gratitude

waiting to pounce....Viney style. ??   Hey look, be careful. Workcover doesn't cover fatal injuies in Supercoach.

Now the important part. Keep checking this thread so you all know where we are at ,in regards to finalising all the leagues for 2016.

Depending on who has or hasn't confirmed for 2016, I will be updating all the leagues with those that have confirmed.

So don't be surprised if you end up in a higher league than you are currently listed in.

I will be now sending out Private messages to your personal inbox with your league code to join your league, therefore keep an eye on a notice stating your have a new message. Then join your league as quickly as possible. (this part I dread, as I have no control over this), 

If you take too long to confirm you are playing in 2016 and then join your league, I will have to start juggling teams around to fill the leagues with 18 teams.otherwise its just holding everyone else up waiting for their league code, then left wondering why their code invite hasnt been sent.
Then it all gets a bit messy.  But I might add most everyone in the past has been quick to respond.

The Stynes League code is now being sent to those that have confirmed.

To everyone else in the other leagues, while you wait for the coaches in the Stynes league, you can play around with your team selections in the meantime. So thanks for your cooperation, I hope you have a good year, and enjoy our comp. Go Dees!!

Sorry if I don't reply to every single post that has expressed their gratitude for my efforts running the comp.
I appreciate the feedback from everyone, it makes it all worthwhile. Therefore a BIG thanks back from me.

To all the 1st time coaches that have offically joined for 2016 welcome, and good luck, The guildlines for promotions, and a general rundown for the comp is in that 1st post, in the 2015 Supercoach thread. I might suggest, have a read through it. It should only take a couple of minutes of your time. If you have any questions I'll do my best to answer them.

HI all,

I played in the Demonland group last year but none of the leagues. Team name was Centimetre Perfect and I finished 1st in the group and 84 overall.

Keen for a league spot this year if there's any room.

Cheers.

Yes, I know who you are. I was also in the Group league and keeping an eye your score. 

You gave the outright overall win a big scare, well done.  

Welcome officially to the comp, and to Demonland as a new poster. I doubt anyone will object to me using the power (invested by my humble self, I might add) in invoking the "Bradbury Award" to you, and promote you into the Stynes league.

Hi Devoted. Thanks for taking on the mammoth task again this year!

My team was Petraccattack last year, but I change it every year. 

I scored 50,490 (1,968th overall) last year and won the R Flower league. Any chance of a guernsey in the Stynes League this year? 

At a guess, probably an outside chance at best .  j/k

I forgot to upload the 2016 Legends Starting League. Well done on the promotion. 

I must be getting lazy, For a refresher check out 1st post in SC 2015 thread for the guidlines for promotions etc.

Oh and congrats on a successful year in (Div2) the R.Flower League. Good luck this year.

I'll take an easy win every day of the week But I've really had enough of looking for easy options , such as high drafts picks and the draw.

We need to play the best clubs and beat them, then we can say we are improving. I'll get far more satisfaction beating  top 8 teams,than those cellar dwellars. If I ever get to see Hoges kick 8 against the dawks, I;ll be over the moon.

As for the EFC, they can rot in hell 

Supercoach is now offically open for 2016. And the Codes for the Stynes League are being sent out as from today (29th Jan).

oh, anyone interested in joining our comp?

Perhaps you played last year or maybe you didn't. Just post your team name and we will get the ball rolling.

Make sure your message box is enabled and not full.        (its in your profile section)

If you are not sure how the promotions work etc, read the 1st post in the 2015 Supercoach thread.

The starting lineup for the 2016.Stynes League. Subject to changes.   Confirmations Are Required.

Your 2015 'Total Season Pts' score can be seen to the right, below your teams name.

You know the drill.   We are now open to taking names for the 2016  DT comp. Just post your team name.

 Returning coaches, if you have decided to change you username or Team name for 2016 just update those here so I know who you were.

New coaches that haven't played previously, just your team name will do.

I have Barney Rubble (formerly Pig Dog) as absent. (thx for the heads up mate) 

1992  Round 6 Vs Essendon

41 Pts up at 3qtr time. iirc blew out to 51 pts into the last qtr

Salmon killed us, kicks 7 gls 2 bhs and the bummers get up by a point.
