Full I think

Full I think

Jeremias can you confirm?

 

[Bluella]

Ha - the site gave me longer odds too. Love being the underdog! Bloody Barlow, though - might struggle this week unless someone else steps up.

Jaysus - spoke too soon. How the hell am I (marginal) favourite???

 

[King of Ruin]

Jeremias can you confirm?

I'd say its a full lockout. Normal week of footy, so should be a full lockout.

 

[Bluella]

Site says partial lockout now. And I'm the underdog again.

 

[Bluella]

Man, Shiels is into everything this quarter!

I know. I would have left Mzungu & Walters on my emergencies had I known it was only partial lock out

 

[Bluella]

Stephen Hill was a fortunate pickup for me when I delisted Kreuz.

 

[Mezzoculo]

We can check the lockout status by going to the settings tab on the league page and scrolling down to Lineup Change Lockout line.
Our league is set to 'First Saturday Game' for full lockout (changed from First Game of Round because we hassled Jeremias last week to accommodate the Thursday night game).

 

[Jeremias]

Sorry all, was barely around yesterday and forgot to change the settings from a rolling lockout. Will be changed for next round.

I can't believe that Patrick Cripps was still available at quarter to ten.



(that's one for each of you)

EDIT - Two for etsal1

Huh? I'm confused.

Swimming in mids. Don't need Crippster!

 

[Kensa Carter]

Crispy! I like the kid. He looks like he could be my little brother.

But not backing him in for Ult footy this year. If this was a keeper league though..

 

[Jeremias]

Looks like my squad is starting to hit some form. First few weeks were a struggle but this week looked to have turned a corner. Very big score.

 

[Jeremias]

Oh, and Kensa Carter - check your trade offers.

Let me know if that's in the ballpark. Happy to keep talking. Trades are hard in this game.

Always happy to talk trades. But I can tell you that isn't in the ballpark - a 90ppg forward is far more valuable than a 90ppg mid - even if it is likely that the forward will drop around 5-10 points with the mid capable of increasing by a similar amount. Let's take it to PM for future discussions.

 

[Mezzoculo]

I've always found this article handy when trying to estimate player value. Its focussed on drafting but is just as relevant when talking about trading.

[Mezzoculo]

Yeah. Hmm. Patty Cripps is back in the FA pool.

 

[Juddalenko]

Mezzoculo - nursing Josh Kennedy on the bench for 160 in a bye week. If only we could all be afforded such luxuries!

Its all about rotations for September, Juddalenko

Well if that's the case - bloody Mumford should be fit, fat & farting by finals time.

 

[Mezzoculo]

Whaddya know, I'm the new league leader! Time to reap the rewards...

The rewards include crashing back down to earth when the real stuff starts.

Very tight race for finals with 7 of the 10 teams fighting it out for the 6 finals spots.

I'm sitting nicely in 3rd place having knocked off top spot for you. Confident I can go deep with the most points for thus far.
