Got a Random Question? Ask it Here. (Part 2)

[Waverley99]

Wow this is turning into a real public slanging match!

FWIW, I think we cannot lose sight of the fact that we are all united by our common love of footy and DT. DT is a lot of fun. It makes 7 other games each round I would ordinarily not care too much about, interesting.

I currently am not in, nor have I ever been a part of, one of the previously mentioned public forums. Ultimately, we have to let the performances of our DT's do the talking. Actions speak louder than words.

DWD - I do not know the full story about what went on, why you got kicked out etc, why you hate FFC and EDT etc. I am not going to take sides in this whole debate. However, please, for your own sake, refrain from publicly bagging other members of the BF community on here. You are not doing yourself any favours by doing so as it does not portray you in a good light.

 

[Notorious_29]

I know he is from my club but....

Roger Hayden

 

[senrulzisback]

Just to change the topic..........

Who does everyone think is the most underrated player in the AFL and you can't choose someone from your own club?

and

Who does everyone think will be the best unique DT pick in these price brackets in any position?

400k<
350 - 400k
300 - 350k
250 - 300k
200 - 250k
150 - 200k
150k>

For arguments sake lets say if they are in less than 10% of teams they are unique.

Suban is in the 200-250k price bracket and he is only in 3% of teams, including mine, He could be a very successful unique pick.

Is having Riewoldt as my captain this week a risk?
And was I too quick to trade Lake for Hodge?

It really depends on who you other options are, if you are choosing him over someone like Ablett, Swan, etc I would say it is but if his he one of your higher priced players I guess it would not be that bad. His had a great pre season and his a very decent scorer so you should be able to expect about a 105+

No, it's not. As much as it pains me to say this, he does play very well against my mob

 

[Narkee]

Probably a good idea to change the topic.

Even though he won the Cats B+F last season I still think Corey Enright is a very underrated footballer. Joel Corey also.

Couldn't agree more mate.

Boris is my favourite Cat and very underrated by the general footy public.

 

[DonMania#5]

Hes trying to make friends by making this thing. He asked me to come to melbourne to teach him how to play footy. I mean come on. Im 18 and the last thing im gonna do is come over and see some guy i dont like, dont know, dont have money and waste my time teaching him how to play footy.

Your 18? LOL

 

[Dunn - Well Done]

In any case DWD, you do talk yourself up. Quite often in this thread in fact.

You talk yourself up, and you talk shit about others, and you have a mentality where it is you vs the world. What have EDT done for you to hate them....I really would love to know?

Also why can't you pursue more appropriate avenues when you have disapproval of a decision such as the one made by FFC and Spartz regarding you? I have seen numerous offers of PM dicusssions/explanations and you turn them down in favour of slagging the forum in public. Your immaturity consistently astounds me.

can you give me an example

I hate EDT because they are in it for the wrong reason. Well thats what ive been told. I dont really hate you guys, just hope the underdog in FFC knock you off the perch.

Im happy for those people to PM me. Im guessing your referring to Ben The Gooner. If he wants to tell me why ive been canned than PM me, not hard. As for this i try and get discussion between plenty of NP people and they dont return much in favour. So your contradicting yourself.

If people are going to have a go out me, im not going to back down.

 

[Waverley99]

Couldn't agree more mate.

Agreed. And Smithy (Corey) is very underrated too, and doesn't get the kudos he deserves IMO.

 

[Hirdy_5]

I don't understand why everyone is arguing about were EDT and FFC are going to finish and who is going to finish higher ? We all know the two NP leagues are going to take the top two spots!

If that's all you've got, I probably wouldn't be hating or publicly bagging them.

 

[Ball Hog]

Ok i agree with both the Joel Corey and Roger Hayden calls for most underrated player in the league, I was actually going to mention Hayden. I know he is from my own club but i think Chance Bateman is underrated. Sewell, Hodge, Mitchell, Buddy, Roughy, Rioli and even Lewis steal the attention but I think he is a real gun.

As for DT uniques IMO.......
400k+ -> Cross/Cassisi
350 - 400k -> Rob Murphy/A.Selwood
300 - 350k -> Ellis
250 - 300k -> Reimers
200 - 250k -> Walker/Everitt
150 - 200k -> Connors
150k> Banfield

 

[RustNeverSleeps]

SCUMBAGS first.
Tossers, a very distant second.

 

[Jab]

DWD told me they were all a bunch of Scumbags and Tossers

They say a week is a long time in footy, 21 more rounds is a very long way off!!

 

[Bert1]

show where i have talked myself up?

can you give me an example

They should make league prizes because than i would make 16 teams and win.

......

DWD, gotta say I'm a bit disappointed.

As you know I've really supported and encouraged the improvement in your posting over the last couple of years, and told you as much early this pre-season. I thought your posting pre Christmas was at a solid quality. It's a shame to see it drop off to this level.

Quick question mate, I don't post this a lot but I'm in EDT and I'm not sure what you hate about them. Hate's a really strong word. You mentioned you hate what they stand for, what exactly is it you believe they do stand for?

TBH EDT is simply a bunch of 30 or so blokes who are absolute footy and DT nuts that are trying their best to win DT the same as everyone else on this forum. No more, no less.

They are also some of the best blokes you would ever come across. Absolutely fantastic guys who just have similar passions and want to share them through discussion on a forum. The quality of discussion is high because the level of knowledge is high and that's what makes it an enjoyable place. They are just top guys so I'm not sure where the hate's coming from.

Sorry mate but I'm disappointed and you've really confused me as to why all the angst.

 

[Stubz]

If there wasn't any control on FFC then people like you would still be running around trolling the board, going around in circles with posting, anatagonising members, bad mouthing people in PMs behind there backs, posting ridiculous information that doesn't make sense. All of these are reasons are why you got kicked out. It wasn't just me that wanted you to leave it was others well before me that were calling for your head and your just justifying why you were sifted out.

DWD/RT the only reason I invited you to FFC to begin with is because I felt sorry for you and I thought you deserved another chance, I thought you were misinterpreted and copped a lot of unnecessary flack on BF but clearly after all this there is a good reason why people have very little time for you. I gave you the opportunity for a fresh start and for people to treat you with respect but you blew it and lost the respect of myself and other people in the group.

You try to pretend like you hate FFC and were going to walk out, but in fact you were the one begging me to let you back in, you even went as far as to PMing members on BF asking for their login details so you could still view the forum. Its such a pity you don't know what an IP ban is and how they work DWD/RT. Once again just another example of the lies you keep on telling.

You tell people this year that you only have one team (or BF account) and your first team is so good that you don't need another one when in fact you and everyone else knows you have more then one this year. I know this because one of your multiple teams called BuddyMania under the name of Joanne kept on trying to join one of our leagues after you were evicted, another example that your just jealous that your not allowed in FFC. I really don't care if you or anyone else has multiple teams thats your prerogative, but at least have the honesty to admit it instead of pretending like you have changed your ways when you know deep down you havn't and the only reason your saying you have one team is to try and get people's respect. You can brag and **** talk as much as you like about how good you are at DT and how well you did in your first week but fact of the matter is you are always going to sugar coat your ranking and just take credit for whichever one of your multiple teams is doing the best.

You should be thankful instead of bad mouthing FFC, we provided you with a lot of information and knowledge over your extended stay, we were very generous and wasted a lot of time on helping you, which no doubt will help your ranking this year to some degree, so I don't see the need for all the hatred.

This all I'm going to say on the matter, I don't want another Rota v.2 to occur and the fact of the matter is this is not BF or anyone else's problem, its between you, me and other members in FFC and it should stay this way. If you want to continue spitting the dummy in this thread then I'm not stopping you, but I'm definitely not going to be sucked into another one of DWD/RT's flame/troll wars and give you the satisfaction of another reply.

 

[archiemoses]

Well this thread has officially derailed.... Good one Narkee!

So Hargraves and Mitch Clarke were apparently sick last weekend but played through it. Hopefully this explains their sub-standard scores.

Heater will cop a tag this week and his average should be restored.

Thoughts on Jolly anyone?

You're supposed to be a moderator so why don't you have the sense to take it elsewhere, or send a pm ?

As I said in the post above, this is self indulgent tripe. The fact that the person you're questioning is 18 years old is enlightening. Don't you think ?

(And no, not all 18 year olds are that immature, or inflammatory)

Ease up tiger, I think you might find that Dogs was trying to help and was actually quite a bit better informed to comment on who EDT are or are not than RT.

I'll agree with you that not all 18 year olds are immature, but helping someone understand why they are copping flak is an adult thing to do. Helping someone to understand why their opinions are unreasonable (or can be seen that way) is also quite mature. Posting it on the forum in a sensible and non-inflammatory way, might even help someone other than the intended, but you and your maturity obviously knew that or you wouldn't have taken offence.

 

[Hannabal]

DWD, gotta say I'm a bit disappointed.

I've got to say that I'm disappointed that you feel the need to delete posts that calls into question your moderating skills and allows self-indulgent tripe to continue unabated.

When is Ben Cunnington back from injury?

 

[54Dogs]

I've got to say that I'm disappointed that you feel the need to delete posts that calls into question your moderating skills and allows self-indulgent tripe to continue unabated.

Must say I'm surprised that you feel you have the expertise after one month on this board to judge how it should be moderated, unless you have been previously banned and opened this account under another alias which is not difficult to locate.

Providing information to a poster to help understand a private forum they know little about is hardly baiting. There are plenty of others on this board who are interested in EDT, hence the public post.

Further personal inflamatory posting from yourself = infractions, take it to the Bay.
