plenty of spots left, looks like we won't make a whole league of AHBers and we will end up with six outsiders.

I honestly thought we'd have it all done and dusted within a week, oh well.

Alternatively, the Dons could just do them on ANZAC day.

++++++1, Go the Bombers :beerbang:

IM trying to add my kick-ass team to your league..but the Supercoach site must be copping a HEAP of traffic today (no suprises). Not sure I will manage to get on there!..lucky for you guys if I miss out as Im likley to win the $55000 major prize!

 

[Pennywise]

Yeah I'm trying to amend my team ATM cause I just found out a couple of my players aren't playing, can't get on the friggin thing. Everybody must have the same idea. Man, Ican't go into round 1 down a player

 

[Alby]

WooHoo...SPLENDID HALITOSIS is in the league!!!...I think my starting players are all playing this weekend. But with the traffic on that website at the mo its not worth trying to log on and change anything, as it will probably end in disaster with my team getting logged-off mid trade and then being disqualified for not having a full complement of 30 players.

 

[jayse]

Not game to make any last minute changes for the same reason but ATM can't even get on anyway. Just found out I am at least one mid fielder down.

I had my team done weeks ago, but forgot to put a captain and emergencies in. I just kept trying at about 4.30pm today and eventually got on.

nope took him out, I actually thought he might do an injury afetr being out for so long.

I did have raines though

 

[Kleiny]

No Cousins

and lucky i didn't get on the computer Mitch Robinson you little bewty

 

[Alby]

So how did we all go this week?...I ended up with a couple of Zero's...wtf happened to Lenny Hayes?.

midfield and forwards were good but my backs let me down badly...need to restrain myself from rushing in to early rash trades..let it ride another week and see if some of my non-performing so-called stars can rediscover their form.

Plenty to like about some of the new comers this year. Cheney, Robinson, Rich et al.

 

[raven19]

For once I had a good start!

Saving those trades is always a tough call..., but you dont want to hold back on trades then miss out on finals.

 

[drsmurto]

The problem with Round 1 was that they only named the first games team prior to cutoff of tweaking so i, like many i suspect, had a few 0s form players who didnt make the team.

Used up 2 trades already due to misreading long term injury lists.

As usual my captain and vc did bugger all and my emergencies were in in the wrong positions.

Overall, >1700 in the first round is a bonus all things considered.

Raven has started very well! >2000 in every round will have you near the top of most leagues. The only weakness i can see in your team is the forward line but plenty of time and trades to tweak that.

 

[Pennywise]

I thought I was all set, but like many others, I forgot to set the emergencies. Cost me near 200 points. My team looks good on paper, but thats about it going by the performance. Gees Doc, already used up 2 trades, hope none of them have an injury at training

 

[jayse]

Used two trades aswell :angry:

Still 1762 off first round I am happy with, if it wasn't for deledio, harvey and reiwoldt in my forward line playing shit and two players out with the wrong emergencies picked i would have cracked the 2000 I am sure.

Those with ablett as captian would be happy with the 350odd, should have had him in my starting team, oh well. Got 250 of corey as my capt which is not too bad considering they played him of half back mostly.

 

[Kleiny]

1st round 2140

Off to a great start, no injuries to my team yet

Just let it sit for a few rounds to work out who needs to go and let the rookies bring up the salary cap

 

[drsmurto]

2 trades and the blokes i traded in are now injured.

Faaarrrk!

So i start this week with at least 2 zeros in my backline.

I will have to trade a couple more next week and the week after. :angry:

If only i could swap my AFL dream team to this comp. All 30 players got a gig last week! Tough part is choosing who to leave out!

 

[raven19]

So are we all feverishly working out what trades to perform prior to round 3 start.

Of note: Values start to change after this game.

Pending team sheets being released tonight, I shall be making 2 trades I think...
