Premiership Coach 2011

anyone have any tips for prolonging players once they start to drop off. i usually take them off training when i see there stats drop but i was wondering if there was any other ways?
I think it's just like everything and even in real life as well. If you play the certain players you want to play, they'll be more happy and their ratings will be kept the same (depending on age)
If you don't play them obviously, they become disgruntled and their ratings will start to drop
 
Have just gotten back into this. Has anyone found out a way to not get fired? Tried to do a proper rebuild with Port's original list but was harshly fired.

I think it's all about the expectations on the club page. If they don't expect finals/top 4 or a flag you should get away with trying a rebuild.

I had job offers whilst at bribane for Richmond who every year had finished in the bottom 4 but each job offer the expectation was to play finals. Their list went pear shaped after 4 seasons and were the worst rated team yet still expected finals.

***PLEASE HELP***
I'm not sure if this has already been previously talked about, but the display of my PC2011 has a large portion game cut off. The top and bottom of the game are cut off which means I cannot actually use any features, and thus cannot play the game. I have tried playing around with the display settings, but nothing works. Please help!!

there's a fix (but I forget).

Temporarily - start the game in normal resolution. On the load screen alt-tab to your desktop

Change the resolution to a smaller resolution (bigger numbers). Alt-tab back to the game and should now be useable.

Until you apply the fix you will need to do this every time you play.
 
Decided to give this game a go after finding out about the 2016 updates that several BF legends have worked on.

Question: With setting up rotations, does each row displayed on the screen represent a player, or a position?

i.e. say for example the row is Ruck Rover, if the rotations read RR RR RR RR FF FF FF - does that mean the ruck rover goes to full forward, or the full forward moves into a ruck rover position?

hope that makes sense,
thanks in advance.
 
Just a thought, if I were to changes older players like Brent Harvey and other's training discipline up a lot higher than original will they increase their skill quicker canceling out the decline in their skill therefore being able to play at a higher level without the as big drop off which happens. Or would there be something else I would have to change or is it not possible to do.

Something else which I am not sure if it works or not but a way not to get fired as coach after a poor season is if you alter the save details of the staff in your game altering you as a coach you can change your contract length and make it longer. Again not sure if that works but it may.
 
Is there any way of updating it? I'm playing trying to Essendon but for some reason after the first season, I can't get rid of some of the "top-up" players without having to pay them out, as well as guys who aren't on the list any longer; i.e. Fletcher, Winderlich, Slattery, etc. Also why is Anthony McDonald-Tipungwuti on a $1.7 million salary lol? I understand having the suspended players as "rookies" and then "upgrading" them before the 2nd season, but the other bits are a little annoying.

someone here mentioned it, but i don't see the post.

Go into the file which says staff, in the PC2011 folder, type in your coach name in the search bar...it should come up with your coaches info, go into it and adjust the contract length... I did this when I did a rebuild with Richmonds 2010 list, put the contract up til 2015 cos theres no way I would havebeen able to do it with the default yearly contract lol

I actually found another way, instead of adjusting the contract length, I changed board credits to 10 and they wouldn't fire me.

Decided to do a complete rebuild of Melbourne. By complete rebuild, I mean I traded the whole list for draft picks. Plenty of years of pain, and it took some editing of the xml a few times to keep my job, but it is now 2019, and I've just won my second Premiership in a row. Plenty of the players still have some development left in them too.

I will see how the next few seasons go, but it might end up being close to one of the best lists ever assembled in this game (even if I had to cheat to do it).

Obviously plenty of guns in the side, but this would probably have to be the best one I've come across.

Just won the Brownlow. If I remember correctly, he exited the draft with a peak of just 84 and I thought the scouts had let me down. :p
 
One of my favourite challenges - the "From Scratch". Fantasy draft, you MUST select the lowest rated player available. End up with about 15 ruckmen, and only 1-2 that are actually capable of playing at AFL level.

Takes 3-4 years to bring in enough talent to be competitive, but that first win (Rd.19 in second season) was possibly better than any Premiership. So much depends on that first pick - in this game there was a standout KPF, and he's now the #1 player in the game (97 rated) and now kicks >100 goals a season at 20.

Another attempt my pick #1 did his knee in pre-season, asked for stupid money (600k plus) and never managed to get even 20 touches in a game. I got fired after the third season :(

must try this sometime, seems fun!

also, i have never figured out how to get your opening contract past 2 years. How do you do this?
 
Playing as Carlton, I ended up drafting both Brett Ratten's son (who was rated 'elite' and had a peak of around 96), and also Kouta's eldest son, who was a ruckman... only issue was he was rated 'poor' with a peak of 25. Funny thing is during the Father Son bidding process multiple clubs bid on him, with the highest being around pick 35, so I figured there must be some sort of talent there... or maybe it's just in the name! Haha! :D

Haven't done it for a long time, but you can edit the file that includes your contract details. IIRC you edit the club rating of you to 10 and you will "never" get fired. (as in 0-22, <50%....and they offer you an extension).
 
I'm not sure anymore - there's individual files for every player, coach, club, etc where you can edit everything in notepad or similar.

Somewhere in either your own or the club's file, it includes a rating for "Manager rating" or similar.
 
im having problems using my game because i cant register, can anyone help me out? I used to have the game on my old pc before it broke and i lost my disc so i have a downloaded version
