Re: BigFooty Essendon Dream Team leagues

is everyone more interested in a league win or overall points?

can the league winner/highest points scorer have 'BF DreamTeam king 2011' put under their avatar?

Re: BigFooty Essendon Dream Team leagues

I'm more interested in total points but I should perform pretty well in the league.

Wouldn't mind eveyone talking themselves up a little bit so the people doing the draft for the leagues have some sort of idea how good you are.

I'm pretty sure I finished second in last years Essendon Div 2 league.

Re: BigFooty Essendon Dream Team leagues

i finished top 500 two years back and around 3000 last year but every year ive ran out of trades before the end. If i'm ever going to get better i have to tie my hands behind my back and not trade! It kills me in the league because come finals i'm down to bare bones.

Re: BigFooty Essendon Dream Team leagues

I used to be good in the early days, and finished 50-something one week. Was shattered that one of my players got injured early in the 1st quarter.

Now that people have started taking this TooSerious(ly), I'm quite medicore in comparison.

I missed out on the finals in my Div last year, but before that I won 4 straight "premierships" against my mates.

I need to get my average from ~1,800 up to 2,000.

Re: BigFooty Essendon Dream Team leagues

My only concern is overall. Leagues are just a bit of fun IMO.

Re: BigFooty Essendon Dream Team leagues

with the points in the multi bye week not counting towards league play but still counting to overall it makes me think theres will be a big difference in the strategies between the two.

i wont be having more than 3 players from the sides that all bye together...will drop too many overall places with a skeleton team

unfrotunaley those sides include stk, bull, geel and haw...

going to be tough!

 

[Ben the Gooner]

Re: BigFooty Essendon Dream Team leagues

Yeah, a definite switch in strategy depending on your aim this season.

Re: BigFooty Essendon Dream Team leagues

Overall.
If you score well in overall, you generally will do very well in the leagues. But not always the other way around.

I agree.

Leagues are always a bit of fun, but it is an individual game. If the Essendon board needs a new player, I think I can fill a spot if needed

Unless you're a genuine chance of winning the cash prize, I wouldn't bother taking it so seriously.

Re: BigFooty Essendon Dream Team leagues

I'd also like to be in. 1 round last year I finished 5th overall for that round/week. 1 of my players underperformed which ruined any chance I had.

been in DT for 6 seasons. last 4 seasons I have finished top 6 in my brothers very hard league. 2 of those years have been top 4 in the league. Last season I averaged around 2050-2150 each week

 

[Bomber Machine]

Re: BigFooty Essendon Dream Team leagues

I"ll be in it please.

 

[bomber-crow]

Re: BigFooty Essendon Dream Team leagues

[JDavey]

Re: BigFooty Essendon Dream Team leagues

I would like to give it a shot. First year playing DT but I'm still aiming for a top 1k finish (and yes I do realize a first year DTer isn't meant to be able to do that).

I've created a bigfooty account just to be apart of this, so please sign me up!

Re: BigFooty Essendon Dream Team leagues

OK guys, I reckon 4 leagues is a good amount, so let's cap it at 64 people. We currently have 55, so there's 9 spots left. Don't miss out!

As for the draft I've randomly chosen captains (just the first names that jumped out from the list):

1. lemon chicken
2. Eleven 38
3. Team Hurley
4. PocketPears

Congrats to those 4. I'll be PMing you once we fill the last 9 spots.

 

[FandangoDingo]

Re: BigFooty Essendon Dream Team leagues

I'll play again. Any league

Re: BigFooty Essendon Dream Team leagues

the more i think about it i reckon dt might get a bit sh*t this year.

With three extra cash cows to pick for the bench and 4 extra trades it means theres loads more cash to make. I guess this means everybody will be able to afford the same premiums by years end. Everyone will have the same side!

this year more than any i think the start might be cruical, get it right early and youll get a point gap to keep when every team begins to look the same.
