Big Jim just to add on to Striker475's post - the two big differences between Ultimate footy and dreamteam / supercoach is the draft and the scoring. Each week you'll compete against a different opponent within our league across 9 categories (Kicks, Handballs, Marks, Hitouts, Tackles, Frees For, Frees Against, Total score and Goal accuracy). If I am playing you, we add up the total number of kicks for players in my starting 18 v total number for your starting 18 and so on. Whoever has the highest total wins that category. The person who has the highest number of category wins (out of 9) wins the round. One thing to consider when you are drafting your players. Not only do you need to conisder getting the balance right in terms of positions (enough quality backs, forwards, mids etc.), but you should also try to get the right balance in terms of the 9 categories across the team. For instance do you want a Liam Jurrah type forward who may not get a lot of possessions, but who will (hopefully) get you quite a few goals, or do you want a Colin Sylvia type who will rack up the kicks / handballs, but get less goals.

That date is available on the system. Perhaps when we get our 14th and final member - we can put forward several draft days / times and we can all vote. Whichever gets the most votes is what we can go with - although we will never find a time that suits everyone.

All discussion for Demonland 2 in here. Only 1 spot remaining. Oh and if your Ultimate Footy name doesn't match your Demonland name, let us know.
-
I'm in favour of two threads as long as it won't annoy non UF posters too much. Hopefully it will encourage everyone to be more active. I like UF banter, which was done well in JA's league last year, and it would be great if something similar could happen with our league. It would be my strong preference, however, not to call it under my username - but rather Ultimate Footy Demonland 2 - OR Ultimate Footy - Robbie Flower league. 2 spots left
-
It is also 1 minute per pick. Similar to Jackattack, the league i was in last year had 5 minutes per pick in a non-live draft - and it took 8pm to midnight for two consecutive days, plus several picks during the day. One of our entrants insisted on taking about 4 minutes 58 for each of his picks!
-
Only 4 spots left for Demonland 2 (Or the Demonland - Robbie Flower league as i like to think of it). Get in quick if you want to play. League ID: 175561 Password: demons Draft time is set to Sunday February 26 at 8pm. Enough time to see each team play once (well twice) in the NAB cup
-
7 spots left in Demonland 2 - thanks to all those that have joined so far. We can set up a discussion on the message board within the league as to the preferred time, so we don't clog up the thread here. Thanks Jackattack. I like the extra strategic element with the captains. In our league last season, most people had a Pendlebury / Swan type as captain - while others used it for their ruckman or goal kicking forward to try and win those categories. Sometimes in won them the round.
-
Okay - have created Demonland league 2. All welcome. League ID: 175561 Password: demons Set to 14 teams - all standard settings (except i allowed captains). Draft date is tentatively set for Thurs 8th March at 8pm - but am happy to change this to a date/time that suits the majority.
-
Any interest in another league - ideally where people are commited to participating throughout the whole season? I'm happy to set it up unless anyone else wants to.

Jack Grimes on SEN with the OX after 4pm
IWAP replied to StillWoewodin22's topic in Melbourne Demons
Yeah i cringed when i heard Ox ask that question. Hard to fill Francis Leach's shoes, but Mark Allen doesn't seem to know his footy very well. A few weeks ago, they interviewed Marcus Ashcroft (who is at Gold Coast) - and Mark congratulated them on getting Jordan "Lizzle", as a good get. Marcus correctly pointed out to him that Lisle actually was signed by Brisbane. -
I'm keen to join a league. Got hooked on this last year, and just can't look at SC and DT in the same way anymore.
-
Thanks Ox and HT. Looks like he knows how to get the pill. Lets hope he makes the most of his limited chance to impress.

Thanks Redman - definitely was a high appraisal. I've pasted some of his recent comments, courtesy of Extreme Black 'n' White: -
WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - JAMES SELLAR
IWAP replied to Demonland's topic in Melbourne Demons
For those who value his opinion, the Wiz (Colin Wisbey) rated him as the number 1 delisted prospect out there (although he had high raps for him before he was drafted if my memory serves me correct). He is big, he has talent. Maybe a fresh start is just what he needs. Anyway - price is right. -
Was much better this year than last year, but went missing in the finals when it counted.
-
What a joke. He's not even making sense anymore. Has a go at us for overpaying Mitch Clark, and in the same sentence has a go at us for only paying 92.5% of the cap.
-
Not if we draft Cameron Bruce .....
-
One main thing i don't like about the system is that the raiding team does not have to provide any form of compensation. So Carlton, with their bottomless salary cap, can offer Goddard a figure that Stkilda can't match, and they'll get him while keeping all of their other players, and draft picks.

Agreed. Aussie has had a tough year, and I feel for him. But the reality of the situation, is if he is retained on the primary list, someone else will have to be delisted (eg. Joel Macdonald). I don’t think its fair to anyone, including Aussie, if he is retained purely because of compassionate circumstances. I think a delist, and a rookie contract (potentially on the same money) will be in everyone’s interest. I highly doubt anyone else will draft him without his blessing.
-
We got pick 52 for Warnock, but you are right we do have picks 72 and 90. I just don't think we'll use them (unless we want to deslist more players)
-
Picks 36, 52 and 54. With Scully and Warnock out, and Clark in, that leaves 2 players that need to go. Maric, Wonna and MacDonald remain uncontracted. I think the first two of these names will be delisted from the primary list.

Emma Quayle: Essendon and Gold Coast are in mediation at the moment over Caddy. Melbourne I think had made a pitch
