AFL Dream Team Thread

as per lauren's request. this has been given it's own thread so that other's don't have to read about our league.

big week this week. burns is my captain (should do pretty well against the tigers)

hoping to break 1800 this week.

  thanks chris.

I wish i knew enough to be a part of this dream team phenomenon, sounds very fun.

That is all *goes back to AFL thread*

next year lauren. i'll teach you on how it works. it's pretty easy really.

it is a great deal of fun.

goodeeeeeeee 

thanks chris.

you prolly know more than kyle

i'm in next year

the week i bring M Gardiner off then bench he's a fkn late withdrawal. There's 1 fkn 0 already

you prolly know more than kyle

Haha probably. So out of touch with the AFL these days. I know my footy, but I'll be fucked if I can remember half of the players in my team 

Not off to a bad start though, Josh Hill being my only player who's had a run as yet, scoring 99.

So glad I added Brett Thorton to my team this week. NOT!

lol why the fuck would u get Thornton in ya side?

To replace Toovey who hadnt even taken to the field yet this season.

His 2 x 100pt games to start the season helped as well.

wont help you if he wasn't in ya team for em

True. But I should still reap the rewards of his price going through the roof whe they work those out this week.

well was waitin on 2 players from the show down, sittin on 1474-Not good. Cornes my captain scored 152(doubled to 304) and Douglas chipped in with a handy 100 taking my score to a robust 1878



not bad

1873 in the end for me thanks to a cracking day today. Hadn't even cracked 1000 before today but thanks to Thompson, Burgoyne, Cloke, Ablett, Cornes & Burten all delivering the goods I've ended up with my best dream team score ever.

i was on 900 with 11 players to play yesterday. all of them i would expect at least 80 - 100.

i ended up with 1673! fuck.

bloody every week i name a captain, they fail. scott burns this week. 1 kick.  

Pulled 1718 for round 3 with two players getting 0, not too bad but definitely hoping for better next week. Have gotten rid of the 0's now, so hopefully I should have a full side playing next weekend.

Wasn't planning any trades this week but got trigger happy and couldn't help myself.

Dew out for Josh Hill
Lade out for Hille

Ready for a first round victory over Stinkin' It.

waitin to see the ins and outs before i pull out my planned trades



and i think its funny everyone gettin on Josh Hill after a few good games.He's a kid. Wait til he starts getting tagged

Pre seasons over boys, time for the real games to begin, bought some big guns back in for this round!!


Del, still think you and the crows haven't got over last years elimination final so think this week will be a walkover for both the brown and golds.

and i think its funny everyone gettin on Josh Hill after a few good games.He's a kid. Wait til he starts getting tagged

you reckon he will? doubtful when they've got west, giansiricusa, cooney, gilbee, and cross in their side? he won't get their best, that's for sure.

going to wait till i see the teams before i make any trades too. hoping i won't need to.

god it's a much more even comp this year.

Joel Bowden dropped from Richmond, Scott West out for a few and Lloyd a bit sore as well.

Couple of big names there.

yeah Bowden dropped is a biggie


made a couple trades for the real stuff. Most notably Jobe Watson out, Joel Corey in


No fkn round now

made a few slight changes. Still going in a little under done. This aint easy.

go the mongrels


see ya on the track Chris

on the dream team site?

i had no idea. i logged in last weekend and didn't see it.

gotta get rid of bowden for somebody. edit: he's still named on the sheet though. fuck, now i don't know what to do.

pretty happy i still have 239 grand to play with.

hang on to him mate i just spoke to Hutchy he said he may get a run 

he was useless last week. got me a whole 52. had one kick.

really not sure on my captain this week. big call.

it's on there mate. you have to look at your team. then look up the top of the oval, it gives you two choices: graphical view or player stat's view.

go to the player stat's view, and it will come up like it did last year.

out - bowden (piece of shit) in - chad cornes - (gay people can play football too)

out - bowden (piece of shit) in - chad cornes - (gay people can play football too)

you will prolly be stoked when he racks up 150 though (GUN)

not confident this week- already have a zero with nickoski omitted and hartlett still suspended.

soloman and mcpharlin both back in will be handy. but i think with a full team josh will pip me.

you will prolly be stoked when he racks up 150 though (GUN)

Fkn glad i didn't end up picking McVeigh. Was a toss up between saving some $ and getting him, or spending up on Joel Corey

(watch Corey do a knee today)

Pretty happy with my decision to trade Lade for Hille after last night. 105 from a ruckman is as good as I could hope for.

Also nive of Mal Michael to come through with 66 which may not sound like much but after 2 weeks of low 30's from him I consider that a great score.

Yeah Hills one of the rare goal kicking ruckman goin round. Will prolly address my ruck issues next week i think

Mitchell a late withdrawel for Hawthorn. That's gonna hurt a few peeps for sure.

C'mon Port! Pull your socks up and beat this psychological warfare!

Wasn't planning on any trades this week but with Hall looking like he'll be out for 8 weeks with a broken wrist I don't see any point holding on to him.

Mitchell a late withdrawel for Hawthorn. That's gonna hurt a few peeps for sure.

yeh my captain too, hopefully i've got the depth to cover it, so close between me and del atm

yeh my captain too, hopefully i've got the depth to cover it, so close between me and del atm

Getting spanked...

It came down to the last quarter of the last game of the round but stinkin it got over the line in a tight battle.

Had so many good players this round but poor performances from Cloke, Burten, Waters & Hall did some damage. The real killer for me though was Nicoski. On Thursday he was out of the West Coast side so I moved him to emergency and replaced him in my squad with Thomas from the Power. Thomas gets injured early in the game and scores next to nothing and then at the last minute Nicoski is named for WC. Had I left him in my side the extra points would have given The Joocers a first round victory.

Fuuuuuuck.

owned it this week. 1982 without scott burns pulling on a guernsey.

gotta do something about shannon hurn and jason gram though. fucking useless this year so far. that's pretty much the only issue i have though. bring on the jets this week.

easy 200 point win. Was more like a training drill really

Shocking...

easy 200 point win. Was more like a training drill really

Yeah you romped it in mate. Cant believe im 14th and scored just under 1800. Chris killed it.

Good Luck this week Quaz..

i have the jets this week.

should be a comfortable win after a quality match v the 1/2 mongrels last week.

hoping to get all of the boys on the park this week too. all goes to plan, should hopefully crack 2000.

very very happy with how my side is looking atm.

have one trade to make with Des Headland out but as per team policy, will wait til Lineups are announced

FUCK me.. Due to wedding bizz i made a few changes early only to hear Daniel Pearce got dropped. Few non starters for me now.

wow dropped? The wheels are trully falling off at Alberton

FUCK me.. Due to wedding bizz i made a few changes early only to hear Daniel Pearce got dropped. Few non starters for me now.

FUCK!

Lloyd cleard to play. My entire forward line including reserves are there to choose from.

FUCK!

 

 (http://www.fivefourteen.net/motivational-posters/fantasy%20football.jpg)

:rofl:

Having a fucking shocker this round. Everything I touch turns to shit.

- dropped Burton for Rioli to get some money in the bank & Burten had been very hit & miss. And then he goes out & gets 99 points.
- dropped Ablett as captain for the first time to try Cornes so he gets a lazy 150pts. Worse still Power Pies have him as captain.
- Hodge barely sees the ball first half and is lucky to get the 69 he ended up with
- Lloyd was absolutely useless and it would have been better if he didnt play
- Scott thompson had his worst game for the year by a mile
- and my best players so far (Franklin, Bradshaw & Ablett) are all in the Power Pies list so nothing gained there
- Cloke leading possession winner at 1/4 time then hardly touches it again

Gonna need some big scores tomorrow to have any chance. Cornes better deliver a big score to make me feel better about making him captain.

I feel like Port Adelaide with the start i have had I have faced 2 pretty decent teams though.

Crap completely forgot about this. Spewing I can only change two people per round as well considering half my players aren't playing.

I feel like Port Adelaide with the start i have had :lol: I have faced 2 pretty decent teams though.

poor perfrmance by the the lads this week but happy to walk away with the 4 points

good win by the boys on the weekend considering both scott burns and bryce gibbs didn't play.

huge anzac weekend clash with a tribe called quaz this week. should be a corker.

lol the irony


*edit* Nathan Foley out. Gary Ablett Jr In

tell me bout it.

couldn't think of anybody there more fitting to play!

good luck mate.

Talk about everything going wrong.

Firstly, both Hurn & Thorton get injured and end up with only 2pts each. Made worse by the fact I have 2 emergencies each getting decent scores.

Then Chad Cornes breaks his hand and will be out for at least 4 weeks.

Gonna have to trade some life into my back line this week - fuck.

didnt know that about cornes dammit..


was looking pretty comfortable at the minute but i found out i may have a zero now.

I've had the worst week ever. First of there were the two 2's, then both Ablett & Cornes get very average scores.

All of which is made worse by Harry taking a risk and choosing Murphy from the Bulldogs as his captain who then scored 148 points!!!

Yer same boat with Cornes and Ablett. Getting a 0 in the ruck sure not helping. Going down this week

im just praying that sam mitchell gets 45 touches then i might be alright!

hurn, thorton and cornes let me down too and forgot to change my ruck emergencies for the second week running.

looks like a big week at the trade and selection table

didnt know that about cornes dammit..


was looking pretty comfortable at the minute but i found out i may have a zero now.

funny thing is, when i think im having a bad week it looks like everyone does aswell.

Gonna hurt trading Chad Cornes-Been my most consistent player over the last 2 years

hard fought win this weekend against a traditional rival in quaz.

going to need to put in another hard week on the track though to maintain current standards. :thumsbup:

Despite sub-par rounds from Ablett (my v-captain), Judd (my captain) and a fairly average performance from most of my midfield, I managed to post my best score for the season and get up for an unexpected first win.

Go me or something 

Think it's time to give Bateman the arse after a second week of mediocrity that I just can't afford from a player in his price bracket. I'll wait until next weeks teams are announced, but I think it's time to tell Chance to bugger off and get a haircut.

Talk about everything going wrong.

Firstly, both Hurn & Thorton get injured and end up with only 2pts each.

Ditto

Been a heart breaking day at the trading table but it had to be done.

Chad Cornes dropped for Heath Shaw
Brett Thorton dropped for Nathan Bock

Sorry to see them go but a 0-3 start to the season means there is no room for cripples at The Joocers.


Had a good win in the Eliminator though which is one positive.

Ditto

as always I'll be holding off on trades until Friday

I must say, I'll be looking forward to my first win this weekend.

After a shocking pre-season, the fellas have moved into first position on the ladder, and managed to progress to the next round of the Eliminator. Who would have thought? Confidence is sky-high at the moment, but the team knows that there is still footy to be played.

You still haven't played any decent competition yet though.

Considering you're the 3rd lowest point scorer in the league I dare say your run of wins is sure to come to a halt soon.

Plus, I'm keen to see you pull up for a game covered in bruises and midget fluid after I teach you a lesson whenever my fists and your hefty frame finally meet.

You still haven't played any decent competition yet though.

True that. Lucky i don't meet the Joocers until Round 17. Their 0-3 run has me quaking in my boots.
Bruises fade with time. Midget fluid, however, can be bottled and frozen, ready for re-use.

Rumour has it Cox could be out of the game for an extended period of time.

Trying to find out more info about this online but nothing to be found as yet.

for Carltons sake i hope so


with King out, really need M Gardiner named this week so i can pull the trades i want

couple big ins for me. Heath Shaw and Robert Murphy. Hopefully that off sets the loss of Cornes.Really like my forward line now-Chapman, Stokes, Franklin, Medhurst, Murphy are all very high scorers.

Picking my captain is now tricky but Joel Coreys form on the track has warranted the call up

Gonna be a tough week against the joocers who are the best 0-3 team going round right now. Confident we can get the win though

Looks like we both swapped Cornes for Heath Shaw. But where you got Murphy I grabbed Bock.

Gonna be a close one I reckon. If I go down by a small margin again I'm gonna scream.

yeah you've been piss unlucky-got a higher over all score than me yet I'm 2-1 whilst your 0-3 lol

Rhyse Palmer makes his debut this week for me too. Been an emergency since round 1 so he's piled up the $ for me, but his form has been too good to ignore so Ryan Griffen moves to the bench

Out:
Bateman
Staker

In:
Goodwin
D. Bell

the boys will be without captain Cornes this week, but there feeling pretty good. Handing the reins to Franklin this week in hope he kicks 74 goals against the Pies this week.


Lets hope Duddy Shanklin can kick straight.


Ins this week are Pavlich and Roughead, outs are an out of form Shannon Grant and Nickoski who has been in and out all year.


Finally happy with my team so i can lay off the trades till the end of the season.

I was thinking that way until I lost 3 defenders to injury in one round.

I was thinking that way until I lost 3 defenders to injury in one round.

think of got 2 more to make and thats it for me

Ablett, Black & Brown all out of the Geelong Brisbane game.

doh!

Chris had Black as captain & Brown as vice captain!!!!

FFS!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Hodge is having a cracker then does his fucking hamstring!!!!!!

This is getting beyond a joke now.

killed me.

douglas injuring himself didn't help either.

still relatively close but without a captain and a zero i can't see the boys getting over the line.

Feeling good for my first win of the season at this stage of the round. Terrible games by Bradshaw & Cloke, Hodge getting injured and having to replace Ablett with the useless Nicoski all hurt by great performances by Bock, Wells, Griffen & a true captains effort from Richo have helped turn things in The Joocers favour.

A lot can still go wrong though so I'm not getting excited until the final siren on the final game blows.

Also, looks like Reiwoldt did his knee tonight. Lots of players going down at the moment.

Don't see how I can avoid getting my fourth straight win this week. The boys are having a field day at the moment.
*Just saw how many Port players are in Tony's squad. Damn. Hopefully most of them are injured!

Going to go right down to the wire in my clash with Quaz.

Heading into the last game his entire team has played giving him a lead of 261 points at present. If the 4 players I have in the Essendon v Port game get their averages, they will give me 288 more points. Yep, gonna be a very close one for sure.

Did't get a chance to make any changes due to being away.Port boys pulled me through this week. Motlop with a handy 127. Great game Nicko.

In what could well go down as game of the season, the Joocers got over the line to beat Tribe Called Quaz 1837 to 1836.

Yep, one point victory.

one


fucking


point

Would have been one of the last disposals of the game that got me over as well.

So fucking stoked that I got up though. Had I lost it would have been a 0-4 start and my season would be over, despite the fact my form had been good.

I had Natho, so errr yeah... I won.

When do emrgencies get added on? If it's already been done and dusted I lost by 17 points. If it's still to be calculated then I should walk away with a comfortable 35 point win over the WKFC.

If you're checking via the live scores section they're already added on.

Fuck then.

i got 1850 odd with 2 bloody zeros.

cant wait for cornes to come back.

lost by 75 without a captain and a zero.

god damn it.

in the last 2 weeks my rucks have combined for a massive 80 points. Wholesale changes needed

nasty. my rucks have been awesome.

white averaging about 95 and simmonds is about the same.

hopefully brown and black will be back this week against nicko!

Yeah will make a trade or 2 after the break

always love a bit of banter in sports, and whilst ok, maybe Im biased, Judds from the weekend was classic

Brett Jones yelling," Bump him, get him in the shoulders. His shoulders are Fucked. Hit his shoulders. His body is no good."
Judd's reply "Yeah my shoulders are fucked from carrying you clowns for the past 6 years!"



awesome

yeah same. the week off is looking to be mighty handy for my players.

yeah seen that on on the couch, gold!hopefuo


got a few injuries out of the weekend- symes and cornes are hurting me now will have a zero for sure next game. hopefully simon black is back by then.

Nope, I am afraid you are Poppa Doc to my B Rabbit.

   Nice come from behind victory there. Was close.

Big week for me this week against the league leaders. Need to sure up my ruck stocks so Ive traded Ryan Griffen to free up some cash for the likely inclusion of troy Symmonds

got nicko this week.

should be a tight game. as long as my captain and vice don't pull out this week.

anyone keen to do this premier dream team or whatever its called ... sounds pretty interesting but costs $$$

i don't even know what you are on about there subbo. what's it involve?


also. one trade this week. douglas for brad johnson (johnson down $115k and turning his form right around...)

Cloke out - Griffen in
Mattner out - J. King in

Symmonds comes in as expected for Gardiner.Last week big troy scored more than my 4 rucks combined over the last 2 games

glad i picked him up early in the season.

sounds interesting. though i really don't reckon any of us are really up there in comparison to the rest of the country. i'd be keen if others are, but i can see it just turning into me giving someone else my money.

gee he had a shocker today!

right on cue

yup, a whole fkn 35

thanks troy

Can't get on the site atm>>>>> Reckon It will be a close one this week?

I had a shocker of a week. Fortunately I was up against the Jets so I was able to pull through with a victory.

Just wasn't the percentage booster I had hoped for.

beaten by quite a bit in the end.

smoked Drew with a score of 1900 plus

still a combined fkn 50 from my rucks though

beat nick with the last two kicks of the day. 12 point victors in the end.

lads are sore today though.

reckon I've got one more trade to do and thats it for me. Hitting the 1900s with H Shaw scoring 40, my rucks again getting 50 and Stokes not playing has the boys feeling up and about right now

The whole Dream Team concept can get fucked!

First I lose Hodge to a hamstring. Then, after some serious thought on who I will replace him with, I choose Shaun Burgoyne despite being a little out of form as he had dropped to a decent price and I could do with the extra cash for other trades. It seems this decision was a stroke of genius with a 137 point score from him in the first week in the side. Then he gets rubbed out for 3 friggen weeks.

Problem is, didn't find this out until I had already used up my 2 trades for the round.

Yep, looks like the consistantly useless Nicoski is getting a start again this week. *sigh*

firstly, why you don't just wait until friday to make your changes is beyond me.

secondly,Re: Nicoski.  you picked him!

lol yeah no shit. I always wait til teams are announced. Doesn't take Spock to work out that logic

Normally I do but I was so angry at a couple of players on my team for repeated crap showings that I couldn't wait to fuck them off.


I grabbed him at the start of the season and after 97 points in the first game it seemed like a good choice. Unfortunately since then he has continued to drop in value so he hasn't been worthwhile trading. I guess I should be glad I at least have an emergency to replace Burgoyne with the amount of injuries I've been getting lately.

yeah fair call. i hear ya there mate.

I'm just still pissed that I didn't research my team properly before the unlimited trades thing finished. Thought my interest in this would have fizzled out by now so didn't really give a shit... boy was I wrong. Have been making the maximum 2 trades every week and now my team is starting too look decent, especially in the midfield. However, I still have a few changes I want to make with only 8 trades left that I am too scared to use now in case of injury.

Also looking forward to playing number 1 this week. I have a feeling I'm in for a pretty big spanking, but it will be good too see how the boys do against real quality opposition. '

Hoping Judd puts in a good performance this round, averageness is just something I can't afford from a player of your price and caliber (and i know if i trade him he'll score 150). Especially with a far cheaper Daniel Pearse sitting on the bench out scoring you. Show me why everybody is all over your groin region again please Mr Judd.

easily knocked em off last week. Over rated imo

drew's third now mate. hopefully lower after this week. should be a tight game.

Bret Jones out'

Lindsay Gillbe in


thats my team done baring injury

Up against the Joocers this week. Should be a good contest.

looking forward to josh finding out Nicoski's been dropped

looking forward to the cunt waking up!

   Missing Cloke still and had to make a massive call and get rid of Burgoyne to free up some cash. Chad Cornes back will be handy though. *No pun*

no doubt. got rid of symes for him. big game this week against stinkin it. got half of the same players. including captains.

Really happy with my 1925 this week, considering I had a zero with Burgoyne out. Had the 2000 in my sights with Wells on fire with 50 odd points in the first quarter only to do his knee.

Wanted to wait until Friday to trade but had itchy fingers and with Wells injured & Burgoyne out for a few more no news during the week would change who I was going to get rid of anyway. So, I am happy to welcome Danyl Pearce & Adam Cooney to my team which hopefully should get me closer to my 2000 dream this week. Gonna need it if I'm gonna have any chance against a very in form Vikings.

2000+ for the first time this season against a full strength stinkin it.

wish i had ebert on the field though and white play. would have gotten above 2200.


big game this week. must be sure to put in the hard yards on the track to come away with another win against the joocers.

6-1 would be a very handy start to the season...

I reckon i might get the arse soon if I don't sort this debacle out.

happy to win

big test in the next couple weeks as I've got 2 teams that are above me

if i can get up with a percentage boosting win against the bottom placed team this week my season's back on track and ill be making a fair run for the finals, if not my seasons toast and i may as well start giving the young kids a run. been such an inconsistent year plagued with lots of injuries.

up against Stinkin it this week after a shocking few rounds.


Traded down to free up some cash

Unchanged side this week. Stability key

Brennan and J.Hill - OUT
Ibbotson and C.Rioli - IN

should be unchanged this week.

waite is only out for one.

I thought I had endured my fair share of crap this year but this week takes the cake. Three of my players scored 70-90 last week but have been dropped and named as emergencies. On top of three injuries (including Brett Ebert) and a suspension (Shaun Burgoyne) It is a pearler of a week.

 

 

Chapman still fkn out

judd out

richo in

:dances:

scarlet 30, Williams 19, heath shaw 21


yup, having a shocker

Joocers having a massive week despite Bradshaw's 6 and a zero from Griffen.

on 2033 with heath shaw and jeff white to play tomorrow.


pretty happy just quietly.... 1100 points up on natho.

looks like a lost by fkn 9

I expected to get flogged but came away with the win in an untiday contest...

2 wins in a row...

scored 1978 and lost

ouch

the live scores must have been broken sunday night or something. i only had 1922 when i got up monday.

happy to walk away with 2085 though.

i'm now ranked  11411 out of 189729. pretty happy to be in the top 10% in the country.


how many trades have everybody got left? i've still got 7. going to be handy later in the year.

No trades left here. But with a 0-4 start to the season I couldn't afford to carry injured players so trading was a necessity.

It has paid off in the short term having entered the top 8 for the first time but it may all bite me in the arse later on.

3 of the top 4 teams in a row-Its the Anti Crow draw:(

Got up for an unexpected 6 point win (thanks Bradshaw ). Last minute decision to change from Simon Goodwin to Gary Ablett as captain really saved my ass, as most of the other boys were either on par with or outplayed by their opponent. I think we're pretty lucky to be sitting at number 7 at the moment and the boys are going to have to lift their game to avoid being leap frogged. Still have 6 trades left but am weary of using them in case of injury. I feel the team still needs a little more balancing out.

If Richo can find 16 points in the last quarter I get my first 2000 ever.

Boh

back to back losses whilst scoring over 1900 really fkn sux

 i seen that! fuckin rough as! waz with 2200+ bloody hell!


chris had a draw also! as if...

and maka lost to to natho!!! interesting round for sure. does anyone know whats wrong with jake king? Richo by far has been my best trade this year pwning it.

Wow. That is a surprise.

yeah i dont think ive seen one yet in 3 or 4 years.


Good to see my boys get up again- they got a few big games coming up so everyone will need to be in some form.

haven't hardly checked my team the last few weeks , good to see i've had some big losses. seasons over i think, time to start tanking and go for the draft picks


*sigh*

yeah he's got an awesome team. No one on the bench though

having a bad run of luck. Think i was the third highest score this week again-and lost

Had an absolute shocker!

can't beleive i had a draw. good game chris!

2 zero's and a few average at best performances really didn't help.


going to be a huge ask to bounce back with a win against woz.

I'll be lucky to get 1300 this week.

Average games across the board so far. 2/3 of my team has played and nobody close to 100 yet.

same. getting belted too!

..... also struggling

Think I've had 3 0's so far but a 294 from Ablett as captain helped.

Looks like I'm gonna scrape home with a win despite my average score.

Thank fuck for that.

2097 points later.....


struggling my arse!

haha yer no shit. Afte the Hawthorn game where my 4 hawks scored less than 200 between em, thoght i was fucked. Then every one else scored 100:)

Just happy to get a fkn win though, suprised i still didn't find a way to lose

would seem that i lost to gary ablett jnr this week. shatters me!

Thought I was going to get lucky and scrape through with a win, but no, Gilby and Giansiricusa pulled the other team through in the last quarter. 4 0's on the field didn't help my cause at all.

god he's a good captain:)

Only reason I didn't get absolutely spanked this week.

curse Gary jnr, he has ruined Corey.

Yeah I've got him too. Has been a bit down of late

Sounds like Judd, although he's never really been 'up' this season. Piece of shit.

lol funny

Judd is sucking it up dream team wise. I think Van Berlo has scored more points for me than Judd.

has been great where it counts-for Carlton:)

Oh hell yeah. Just a pity dream team doesn't give points for how well the ball is used.

yeah thats Supercoach

I'm screwed I reckon. Been holding on to McLeod in the hope that his value may go back up a bit with a couple of good games and now the prick needs knee surgery. He's currently worth about $100,000 less than he was when I bought him

only a knee clean out tho isn't it? And don't forget it's a split round coming up so he'll have a week off anyway

that said, I'd trade him for Chad Cornes if i were you

I'm assuming that's a tongue in cheek comment.

I dare say Chad Cornes will be getting his injuries taken care of before the season is over.

i have Chad and McLeod 

Like Ports season, may as well put him on ice til next year

*Shoot him/them all

chad cornes out - joel bowden in


$146500 in the bank with 4 trades still.

Judd out for Carlton.

Glad I don't have that old horse in my team.

*yawn*

Poor guy doesn't even remember the game last week. That headclash was fkn sickening

Loving this split round. Gonna be fun smashing Natho over 2 weeks lol

i'm on 1995 atm. with heath shaw to play.

1000 points up as well, against 2nd on the ladder louie. 

Have a feeling Noddy's Joocers are gonna walk all over me.

on 1200+ with 8players(including my captain) to go




against natho

You're done for mate.

He does still have half his team to play so it isn't quite the thrashing your post may lead some to believe.

i know. be just my luck to go down too.

i'm gunning on the feeling that i reckon adelaide will get up tonight.

just had another look and now i'm doubting myself. cheers josh!

he's got a million swans though. hopefully they have an off night.

i reckon swans players have a habit of having low possession counts.

that's what i reckon too.

he's got a few though that could either get him 100 or 40 though. really does come down to ablett tonight though.

how'd that belting work out for ya?

worst game i've ever seen.

happy to be back where i belong-In the 8

no chance i can miss the finals now. pretty happy about that.

sitting clear in third with a number of trades and over 100k is going to be handy come finals...

I'm fucked to be honest.

yeah your in a prime position i must say

anyone else live scores screwing up for em? Or is it just my monitor fkn me again?

Nah, they're fucked.

Keeping last weeks scores up only replacing the scores of players who are playing or who have played.

Considering I'm starting this week with 3 zeros I don't really want to see live scores.

was a combo of both me. Changin my font sizes messed with the site so i could only see half the field. All fixed now(and showin present scores)

3 0's? Fk mate thats rough lol

i had a horror too.


king and richo (captain) out and only 51 from piggy stevens?


few others with some low scores too grrr.

Ling and Ablett both went down ao gonna have to use my last trade. Ouch

Season over, have started embezzling as much cash as possible before I get the sack.

 

huge game this week against Del. Could decide who makes the 8

i think im still looking alright, i have plenty of reserves but some little niggling injuries are hurting.

reckon kieran jack will sit on the bench this week. and with the return of burgoyne and richo richo man. im still eyeing a spot in the top four.

I'm completely fucked this week. Could start with 4 or 5 zeros the way things are looking.

Richardson & Burgoyne still out.
Fabian Deluca dropped.
Jonothan Griffen dropped.
Josh Hill dropped.
Gary Ablett injured.

Completely fucked I tell ya.

lol ouch


looks like I'll have to use my last trade on Ling's face this week

not sure whether to trade this week or not.

really don't want to waste the ones i have left.

Ling out, Kane Johnson in

same same but different

Is King back yet or what?

afl.com.au

ORLY? Thanks for that :p

Out - King + Gardiner
In - Gilbee + Minson

With McLeod back I should hopefully have a full team this week.

Despite playing the top placed Hairdresser Models this week, and with a heap of players out, all is not yet lost.

Not only does Wazz have McVeigh & Ablett on the park, he had McVeigh as his captain. As a result the double score goes to his vice captain but in a lucky break for me his vice captain is Heath Shaw. 39 points doubled ain't gonna hurt me that's for sure. Confident Cooney will deliver a better result for me on his first outing as team leader.

That said, Cloke & Shaw were both horrible so things have hardly started off well for the out of form Joocers.

Wow.... I won a game.

bad week for me, Rhyse Palmer pulling out hurt

1219 was better than I was expecting.

5 zeros and a bunch of stars scoring 40 or less was never gonna be pretty.

Chad Cornes has surgery tomorrow as well and his season is officially over. Dare say a few people will have to use one of their remaining trades with him.

i think i got close to the highest score with about 1780 or something.


was a bad week for everyone just about.

Full forward line, ruck and centres is a bonus. But Leo Barry's injury and Burgoyne dropped by leadership group means I have 3 zeros in defence already.

This is getting beyond a joke.

which burgoyne got dropped?

Peter.

Johncock dropped by leadership group for the Crows as well.

did they go and get blind together or something??

take that del.

lucky you're used to going down.

suprisingly scored a 2000 without ablett

This week to decide finals for 4 or so teams!

Had a pretty average round. No Ablett, a 2 from Van Berlo and poor performances from usually solid players left me with about 1650 for the week. With you to play next week that's not going to be good enough. Will be pumping all the performance enhancers I can into the boys this week! 

a real friend would tank....

all i know is im in some strife!!!


tredrea, chaplin, playfair injured. no trades.

shaw playing like crud. king/ burgoyne awating a return.


fuck knows how i keep winning let alone be in the top 4.


I think i might be this seasons pretenders.

I've wondered that about your team myself. Lowest score in the 8 i think?

just getting the job done nothing flashy. 

i'm leading points scored finally. took me 14 weeks to catch up from a couple of average starts..

luckiest team in the comp. You're North Melbourne

i tend to look at my team like sydney- bottle it all up and hurt you on the rebound. 


ive only lost to yourself, wazza, chris and maka.


but like i said been shattered with injuries the last two weeks. i pretty much wont be able to score 1900's all through the finals. out:cornes/tredrea/playfair for the season. chaplin injured, wonaemirri didnt play last week maybe king and burgoyne to return this week????

hope abletts back this week. That said, didnt miss him last week. Kane Johnson scored 200+ the 2 weeks I've had him

handy inclusion

ablett's not going to be playing this week.

*cheering*

well that sux. Though I'm pretty sure Kyle's got him too anyway

Yep

fk i could be in some trouble though

Ablett, Chapman and Osborne all out

ummm, fuck

I just still can't believe that it worked out I'm playin you teh weekend Adelaide play Carlton. If only we were fighting for a spot in the finals.

Im fighting!

Having a laugh at the fact a few people traded Heath Shaw this week and as these things usually happen, he's having a cracker.

i kept him.

no point trading someone who's lost so much money i reckon.


i reckon i'm going to smash subbo this week. i don't know who half his team is.

still got him

This can go get fucked!!!!!!!!!!

Raped by a poor percentage.

Had I gone through with my original plan of trading out Ablett for Cornes to and relegate Pearce to the bench I would have won. Seeing as I only got Cornes on the team, forgot about him and left him on the bench, I got a 27 from Pearce instead of a 125 from Cornes.

From this point on you are my arch enemy and I will do everything I can to make your time here on AM as miserable as possible.

I poo mast over your mother!!!!!

94 for Roughead at half time. Unfortunately my opponent has him too

i can hear robert gaylord walls using that one...


franklin on thin ice.

was thinkin the same thing - will scout some potential replacements this week i think

the Joocers Fev and Roughhead just made it real hard for me. Need Ablett and Chapman to have real big games

same chris has both. and mitchell and gibbs.




i think its 1140 v 390 at the moment 


i got a heap still to play but doesnt look good.

haha yeah i'm on 1040 with hasleby and mcpharline still playing now.

have twelve more still to play as well.

huge round so far. watch everyone i have get injured in the first 5 minutes of playing tomorrow now.

Unfortunately it's been a downward spiral since Fev & Roughie did their thing. Whilst Hill from Freo had a sterling game scoring 105, it ain't much use to me as he's only an emergency. The Showdown didn't help with the only real stand out being Chad Cornes who is also in the Tribe whilst Walker may as well have stayed home & Carlisle playing a brilliant defensive game which may have helped the Power but scored fuck all DT points. On top of all that the ever reliable Jed Adcock chose to waste the few possessions he did get with useless, low scoring handballs.

The only hope for me now is for Ablett to get injured in the first 5 minutes leaving the door open for Selwood to get 50 touches.

lol I'm only up by 50

Having an ordinary round so far. Average perfomances across the board apart from a few. Pretty similar players on each team playing today. Should be close

Jesus. Chapmans 78 in the first half is proving to be a handy addition to the forward line

should pencil in my first win this week

still need to suss out a few things hamish hartlett from port was doing well but i think he's done a hamstring and might have to look at getting rid of burgoyne if he's gona be injured throughout the year

Goddard 78 at half time. Running over the top of Team Nickoe now.

Obviously not yet though :/

Choosing to play with a zero looks like it's going to hurt me, did it to pick up fucking Hartlett too. 0-3 awaits.

fuck of chapman would of been nice to have havin fev and roughhead made up for it tho

Yeah Chapman with 160 in his first start with the Tribe


Instrumental in the win

Can't even log in. Faaaaaaark I reckon i got done in a close one.

speaking of close. Was watching the saints dogs game with subbo. He had Gwilt and Higgins and was down 8 with 5 mins to go. "KICK IT TO GWILT FFS!!"


lol lost by 2

Baaahahaha... I won. 1927 with a 0... not too bad.

I fucking lost by 8

shit score

few close games it seems - lost by 52

i won by 6

pretty happy with 1760 with 2 zeros, hartlett injured early and buddy way out of touch

Got a bit of spare cash so this week i reckon shaun burgoyne and hartlett out coughlan and kane cornes in

 

Another loss for me, season hasn't started well. Hartlett's hammy hurt.

1890 is an okay score for me but it was no match for Quaz's 2120.

I bow down to the tribe.

Just warming up

*flex*

yep picked up ablett last night.





oh hes done his groin. 



of course he has.

Ablett said to be out for 3 weeks


I blame you Drew.

Drew, what is your email so I can send you a list of players I would prefer you didn't pick up.

kthxbye

seriously what the fuck is up with that!!! 




  okay whos next on the list.....

i was standing at work when i heard my exact thought was "fucking drew the bastard"

can you go pick as many crows players as possible i'll pay you 2

Looks like Richo is out this week as well.

Doesn't bother me as I don't have him but I'm sure plenty of others do.

ha, how good is it

bloody great. first weekend of not having to worry about my players in 17 weeks!

Season is all over for me today pretty happy with finishing 5th in my first year considering i played with 3 or 4 zero's for the last 2 months aswell

Bring on next year already i'll definetley be paying some attention to the preseason

up to 26th in the country now-would be awesome to finish top 20

big game against louie this week. bloody hope i can get through it and steve's team dies in a aids crash this weekend.

lol

bano 0's for me this week again this week so far.

*moves Taylor Walker to full forward*

*drops Gary Ablett for disciplinary reasons*

Swan, Didak and O'keefe all having shockers. Could be all over for the Tribe lol

I'm sure you could have been in trouble....except for my 2 zero's.

yeah worked out well

i haven't even bothered to look after seeing garlett got 114 after i didn't check and assumed he wasn't playing.

pretty sure louie would have won by about that margin in the end too.

Looks like a classic grand final approaching. Considering last week the Tribe scored 2057 to the Battlers 2056.

Epic battle on the cards.

Should a be a good one. Return of Ablett as capt I reckon. Freo at Skilled should see him score high




slipped to 56th all up. No Toyota for me

not that it matters... i got 1973 which was my highest score this year lol

bler

Buddy getting rubber out hurts me a ton. Unless Sidebottom gets named (doubtful) that'll be a 0 for me

Yep....well timed that.....many thanks.

 

 

i've made a DT finals team in a public league

you can sign up with your current email login & just pick a whole new side of 22

unlimited trades - but you can only pick 3 players from any given team.... interesting...

league code is 803208 - feel free to join

Chapman out?!

sidebottom's in it looks like

Chapman did his hammy...again

Sidebottom only in the extended squad I thought?


Fuck I need him to play though. Need at least ome cover for Buddy

sidebottom

he's a good player. kicked ten goals in the grand final for vic metro (i think) from the midfield.

handy.

made even better by his first name- Steele

yes

Steele Sidebottom. Often refered to as Rusty Frontbum

awesome

fkn hell

Buddy 0 and Selwood and Mackie combing for 90 is gonna make it tough

Looking like a tight final which could go either way at the moment.

 Something tight which could go either way.

 Sounds like Bindy Irwin.

Lol

the buddy suspension could in the end cost me the win. Very close right now. Need swan to get involved

awesome game

Im up by 9. Ive got Didak and Swan, he's got Higgins and Leon Davis


all comes down to the last quarter of the season!

lol holy shit

not official yet obviously but looks like i got up by 1 point on the last score refresh!

Spoke to Luke and he was devastated.

Congrats on the win though Quaz. Had been the stand out team all season.

yeah congratulations steve. great win, thoroughly deserved.

i'm shattered. got the highest score this week with a couple of zero's. why couldn't my team have fucking lifted like that last week ffs??? 

Cheers guys

lol Alan Didaks last 30 seconds (free kick and a handball) got me over the line.

Awesome way to finish off a great season though. Good fun



just checked the results. Peaked at 26 but finished 70th out of 293,940 players. Pretty happy with that

Yea, congrats on the win mate - best I've seen anybody I know do in the comp.

So doesn't look like many are doing the finals league.

lol no chance after Montagna and Gilbert combined for under 100

Yes, the week I change my captain from Ablett to Montagna.

 Face Palm

 laugh

Useless pricks. Face Palm

Brown on track for another corker as well... EDIT - Didn't do too badly in the end for -1 at qtr time.

Just looked at the B-Team league and realised I had a draw back in round 11.... scoring 2242! Haha.

haha, that's amazing!

good win again from the vikings over the weekend. pretty happy we weren't drug tested afterwards too just quietly.

looking like i'll finish 4th this year after the minor round, glad i've got the luxury of the double chance. going to need it i reckon.

With some down performers and Heath Shaw on the pine, very happy to walk away with the points

Stoked to get the highest score in our league for the first time this season.

I've got a massive game this week against Maka so hopefully this form continues.

It all came down to my masterstroke of stripping Gary Ablett of the captaincy and giving it to Montagna.

 Face Palm

I knew I was in trouble when coming into the last game I was relying on Kurt Tippett.

last week before finals boys!

indeed. looking like i'll be playing you first up steve.

thank fuck for the double chance! haha.

really pumped with the win last week, has put me in an alright spot especially if i win this last game

fuck the wheels are shaky at team awesome.



a few little niggles pushing the list.

lol fkn ditto

Heath Shaw still out, and now so is Bartel and Pods


ouch

Macguire & Pods out sucks but nothing too bad to report at this stage.

In serious trouble.  Face Palm

Shaw
Pods
Bartel

Awesome news.

Time to bring in Lake for Maguire this week I think.

Yer I was thinking of upgrading hargrave to Lake but he's averaging over 100 in the last 3 so pass

Will prolly go Pods to Chapman instead at some point

That's what I'm thinking for my final trade of the season.

Having an absolute shocker.

Hodge 57
Scotland 66
Malceski 64
Chaplin 52
Gibbs 67
plus all my forwards below average.

Things better improve or I may slip out of the 8 yet.

Still beat me easily mate

I had an absolute shocker. Lucky to finish in the 8 and looking forward to welcoming back some key position players to take on the fat dudes next week.

122 for his first game in aDELaide colours was handy, especially considering the other performances in the team. Hit 2000 on the nose.

Not a good start to my finals campaign with Rioli out for 2.

Fuck I hope Pods is back this week.

Fuck.

Looks like that's a donut for me.

no Pods and Sandilands out

well thats me done.

I'll have Riewoldt coming in for Pods Smiley

Same

Yup, Riewoldt in with 1 trade and 130k in the bank, for one prelim trade (hopefully)

Well, Trengove's 28 has put that to bed. Went wrong on the captain and Trengove/Warnock selections

Nice work Quaz.

Going to go right down to the wire in the 2nd prelim..

fuck is it ever i need 39 plus what ever cox and natanui get...

faaaark.

Massive win despite the 0. Good game Drew.

The Mongrels into their first GF and from 8th.

the Cinderella Story, versus the reigning Premiers

You couldn't write this shit folks 


(and bl Del - you were def unlucky)

i dunno my rise from bottom spot last year would have been better IMO.

and yet here we are

yup.




*tumbleweeds*


*sobbing*

*weeping mast*

its all ive got till next year

Scraped through to the final in my other league - Cooney dropping $43k doesn't help in replacing him though.

Might pick up Cousins in the hope he wants to attack his last game full on. It's either him or Brennan ater Cooney Jewed me.

Grand Final Time!!!

Players being rested for finals could really decide it. Especially with my 0 midfield cover lol

2 GF's in a row though, pretty happy with that. If i win, will be singing the song proud

"A Tribe Called Quaz, back to back, back to back, BACK!"

lol well, there goes that

OUT

Hodge
Didak
J Brown


hahaha

think maka has all three too?

just looked. He doesn't have Hodge

so starting i have

Dennis Lane
D Stewart
Phil Davis


lol gross

i would have been fucked this week anyway..

No Didak, Brown and Pods means a zero in the forward line.

Fuucck.

Dennis Lane and Hitchcock should pick up the slack 

Good luck Quazz. Going to be a tall order.

oh thank fk for that!


good luck mate (not too much obviously)

Were Enright & Selwood both late withdrawls? Traded Enright in for Hodge too.

Thank fuck the guy I'm playing has them both too.

Well im officially fucked now unless Hitchcock gets 500. The team I had out there were scoring well but with no Enright, Kenelly, Didak, Brown and no Pods= 2 donuts that I could not cover

Well done Quazz back to back premiers

Happy with my finals campaign claimed some big scalps.

We are A Tribe Called Quaz,
We are the ginger Tribe Called Quaz
We’re the team that never lets you down,
We’re the only team old rangas know,
With all the champions they like to send us,
We’ll keep our end up.

And they will know that they’ve been playing
Against the famous Tribe Called Quaz


A Tribe called Quaz would like to thank their main sponsors, Fanta.....




In all seriousness, cheers Macka and bad luck. Lasr round of the year always sux with players resting

 To all - great season this year boys. Some really good teams so very happy to go Back 2 Back. Bring on next year!

I would rank your club song up there with Gold Coasts in terms of awfulness. Pretty disappointing effort from such a big hip hop fan really.

Wasn't total dominiation like last season, but the signs coming from the Tribe at the business end of the year were ominous.

Definitely going to be intresting to see what happens in terms of the format for next year.

winning  ya last 12 games is fairly dominant lol

Well yeah, but the year before you won what, every game?

nah i lost one


to fkn bottom placed Drew 

Congratulations Quaz, another strong year and deserved another win.


Stoked to take out my other league with some winnings coming my way.

nice work steve! congratulations again!

Cheers guys

Yer the best side easily again this year.

Nice one.
