Round 1 Discussion - Lets Get the Season Underway

[WaynesWorld19]

The Season is off ...we hope ...Teams drop in 49 min ...we hope

 

[FlowersByIrene]

So no rookies named in the opening game about from the Marlion obvious one.

No Williamson this week for anyone who was interested.

 

[JADED]

Playing.. yay.

 

[WaynesWorld19]

I simply don't get why 16 minute Qtrs ....unless the plan is for clubs playing 2 games per week at stages

Yeah they'll cram some games in mid week at some stage. Reduces the fatigue factor. Makes it more palatable to play on a Tuesday or Wednesday night.

It'll be weird for fantasy. If our premiums can score 85 (in 80% of a normal game) that'll be a win. And some mid pricers, well they just need to score what they're priced at and that's a win. And a 55 average might be more than acceptable for on field rookies.
I wonder what the people who run the competition will do regarding prices. Does everyone lose money when they inevitably don't score to their usual level in reduced game time? Do they adjust the pricing formula? What a strange season.

I highly doubt the pricing formulae changes now .....they're not going to be changing with less than 24 hrs to game 1

I have had to throw my whole side around though .....and it's been set for 2 weeks

Steven out didn't help ....and 2 games per week will see him rested a bit

The thing is if hardly anyone reaches their breakeven in reduced game time, does nearly everyone's price then fall? Or do they adjust it somehow?

 

[samFFC]

I thought that price changes were relative to the whole league. Think it needs to balance out. So would just change the “magic number”.

Understanding same point allocation per game

 

[chloedarko]

I feel woefully unprepared. Did my team a few weeks ago then started caring less as talk of it being called off surfaced.
Can’t wait to scramble tomorrow and Friday!

Yep, that makes more sense

 

[Beau_Waters for PM]

So it begins.

 

[Crashy]

I need to know

After tomorrow nights game can I still make heaps of trades minus tigers/blues players?

Correct.

Unfortunately a fair few of the decisions I have to make between now and tomorrow rely around whether to start or not start Dusty, so I need to figure things out earlier.

 

[WaynesWorld19]

 

[Spider Klein]

Is every game 16 minute quarters or just tomorrow nights game?

 

[samFFC]

All

 

[TheRednWhite]

Cripps VC. Imagine if he gets 140+

 

[The_Big_Ship]

The AFL fantasy app doesn’t even work, can’t add players to my team.

 

[Be Afraid]

Is it worth doing a Loophole VC on the first week? Would we rather make sure every person plays in the team? Including bench rookies.

 

[TheRednWhite]

**** nervous about Crippa now, just too late to do anything I'm a mess I hate this game. I deserve a Cripps sub 80 tonight to put my season to bed.
