O CAPTAIN, MY CAPTAIN

So gets the big job this weekend? Last week 36% of you went with Gary, I suspect that he might have more support this week. Mind you, last week Andrew Swallow outscored him, or, maybe you think the Collingwood boys Swan & Pendles will get the job done against the blue blaggers on sunday arvo. Comment below in the usual place. Especially if you believe that it is bad luck to have your captain play too early in the fixture. I like to have my captain play as late as possible and have been known to sort a difficult captaincy selection by choosing whomever plays last. Crazy? or Sage thinking. Let me know either way.

HAMISH MACINTOSH SETBACK

Fantasy football favourite, Hamish MacIntosh has suffered a setback with his knee that will set him back at least three weeks. It’ll probably be more if we take seriously the words from Geelong that say they are taking the long term view with HMAC and will not rush him back. If you have him, jump off him and onto someone like Giles, Bellchambers, Goldstein or Mumford.

2013 AFL FANTASY MATCH DAY LAUNCHED

Tuesday, January 22, 2013

Carlton star, and fantasty football gun Marc Murphy

AFL FANTASY players will have a third game format to try in 2013, with the introduction of AFL Fantasy Match Day.
Running alongside existing favourite AFL Fantasy Dream Team and the new, draft-based AFL Fantasy Elite, AFL Fantasy Match Day is the perfect introduction to what AFL Fantasy has to offer in 2013 – a quick and easy game played over a single AFL match.
Coaches will take part in a one-game contest, with each player selecting eight footballers – two defenders, three midfielders, one ruckman and two forwards – from the two competing teams.
The coach whose eight players score the most combined points wins, with an overall winner for each Match Day set to win a fantastic prize, details of which will be revealed soon.
Players can also accumulate points across the course of the selected games in order to be crowned their league champion in up to five different private or public leagues, which are unlimited in size.
Kicking off with the NAB Cup Grand Final, AFL Fantasy Match Day will be available for a selection of blockbuster matches throughout the home and away season, plus all finals matches, including:
Round 1 – Hawthorn v Geelong
Round 2 – Collingwood v Carlton
Round 5 – Essendon v Collingwood
Round 7 – Hawthorn v Sydney Swans
Round 9 – Richmond v Essendon
Round 16 – West Coast v Fremantle
Like the other two AFL Fantasy formats, AFL Fantasy Match Day is completely free to play.
Register for AFL Fantasy now and be the first to find out about more exciting developments ahead of the launch of the games on February 1.

BRISBANE LIONS INJURY LIST

Simon Black

Had some knee surgery around Christmas and has all of January off. Then again, you’d be a braver punter than me if you are thinking about recruiting him into your team.

Matthew Luenberger

Is on a modified training program for his Achilles and looks set to start round 1. Be wary of this and the fact that he will be on a modified training program throughout the 2013 season. Still, at his price….

Jed Adcock

Back in training after a hip injury. Will start round 1 if there are no mishaps.

ADELAIDE CROWS INJURY LIST

Daniel Talia

Recovering from a broken arm suffered during the final series and should be cherry ripe for the season, not that it matters to much

Bernie Vince

Recovering from minor shoulder surgery and will be fit for the year.

Jared Petrenko

Had a shoulder reconstruction in November and is about to join the main group.

Matthew Jaensch

Is in the rehab group whilst recovering from groin surgery.

Luke Thompson

On a modified program to deal with an ankle injury.

AFL’S NEW DRAFT FANTASY GAME: AFL FANTASY ELITE

By Staff writers Thursday, January 17, 2013

Who will you choose?

AFL FANTASY players will have a new challenge to tackle in 2013, with the launch of draft-style game AFL Fantasy Elite.
Free to play and fully customisable, AFL Fantasy Elite pits coaches against one another under the pressure of a live draft, with each player able to be selected on only one team.
With the clock ticking, will you pick Dane Swan or Gary Ablett? Scott Pendlebury or Matthew Boyd? Lance Franklin or Dean Cox?
Getting it right could make your season. Get it wrong, and you’ll need to head to the trade table to strengthen your line-up.
Everything in the game – with the exception of how the points players earn are calculated, which is based upon AFL Fantasy Dream Team scores – is fully customisable by the league creator or ‘commissioner’, meaning you can choose the league size, squad size, trading rules and even competition start date that suits you.
The new game format will run alongside the traditional AFL Fantasy Dream Team game, which will continue this season.
Here’s all you need to know about AFL Fantasy Elite:
Setting up a league
The commissioner can start a new league to begin at any point throughout the 2013 home and away rounds, choosing between leagues with finals or one where the ladder leader at the conclusion of the league is the winner. You can also decide whether the league is private or open to the public for anyone to join.
Leagues can be customised to contain six, eight, 10 or 12 players, rolling lockouts (with changes to sides possible right up to the start of each individual game) or – as per the previously announced changes to AFL Fantasy Dream Team – fixed lockouts, and double or standard points for team captains.
Drafting
Before the draft takes place, you can set up your preferred and desired player draft list for
convenience during the live draft, which will also act as your auto-pick order if you are unavailable or take too long during the draft.
When it comes to setting up the draft, there are three options:
OPTION 1: A live draft with all members of the league selecting turn by turn. Set your own time that each coach gets to make their pick – ranging from 60 seconds to no limit at all – take it in turns at your convenience when each coach makes a pick.
OPTION 2: An auto draft, where teams are automatically selected based on each fan’s preferred pre-draft selections.
OPTION 3: A live single computer draft, where a live draft takes place with each user taking turns to select on the same computer – or take it offline and let the commissioner submit each squad’s selections (this is only available in private league options).
The draft itself can be ordered in three different, easy-to-follow ways:
OPTION 1: Snake draft, where the order is reversed each round
OPTION 2: Linear draft, where the order stays the same each round
OPTION 3: Banzai draft, where the order reverses in round two, stays the same in round three, and then continues as per the snake draft
Setting up the sides
There are a whopping seven different team structures to choose from in AFL Fantasy Elite, with two options of 12 players in each squad, four variations of 15 players, and one with a 22-man make-up:
• 2 defenders, 2 midfielders, 1 ruckman, and 2 forwards (with 5 additional players on the bench)
• 2-3-1-2 (4 bench)
• 2-2-1-2 (8 bench)
• 2-3-1-2 (7 bench)
• 3-3-1-3 (5 bench)
• 3-4-1-3 (4 bench)
• 5-6-2-5 (4 bench)
Once you’ve filled your on-field team via the draft, the next selections are your bench selections, with a ‘floating’ bench where, if you choose to activate the Auto-Emergency option during your league setup, your lowest scoring bench player can replace anyone who doesn’t play from your on-field starting side.
Waivers and Trading
Why would you have a player score a donut when you can waive an injured player and replace him from the unselected pool of players?
When a player is cut from an AFL Fantasy Elite team in your league, he is added to the ‘waiver pool’, where he can be picked up by other teams.
The waiver order can be customised as either reverse ladder order or last pick option, where the waiver order is never reset and coaches go to the bottom of the priority order after each successive pick.
You can also try to improve your team by trading with other coaches in your league – you can nominate a player to trade and then watch the offers roll in.  Or, make a direct trade offer for a player on another squad.
As per the fully customisable nature of AFL Fantasy Elite, the commissioner gets to decide how trades are approved:
• By veto vote from a percentage of coaches in the league
• Approved solely by the commissioner, or
• a free-for-all style system
Don’t panic, we’re here to help
If all of this sounds complicated, don’t fret – there are step-by-step guides to take you through the process, as well as an easy quick-pick option that will set up the draft for you based upon recommended options.
Or you can simply join a public league that is set up how you want to play the game.
Organising a draft party with your mates might be an option you want to consider; crazed fantasy fans sitting in bars with laptops glowing is a common sight in the US at the start of every season.
Commissioners can start creating leagues and inviting players to join their leagues on February 1, with the draft process able to be set from February 11.
At 12.30pm on Friday 18 February, there will be a live chat to answer any of your queries in regards to AFL Fantasy Elite.
In 2013, it’s a whole new world of AFL Fantasy – register now to be the first to know of more exciting developments ahead of the launch of the games on February 1.

ROUND 17 ACTION

How are you shaping? Who is getting it done, who is falling over? Put up your scores, players used & skipper. Tell us the subs, injuries, late changes etc that you’ve the scoop on, and, keep us up to date with your progress scores. Keep us in the trading loop if you traded, or, let us know if, like me, you kept your powder dry. Did you know that we are only three games away from finals? Let us know if you are playing in a ‘must win’ game, did you trade?

Good luck.

ROUND 16 POST MORTEM

How did you go this weekend? As we wait for lockout to end, let us know your score, who held their end of the bargain? who let the club down? how many wins did you get?

ROUND 16 TEAMS

All the teams are in the thread below. Feel free to complete the bye round poll, 97% of you don’t want a bye round next year, how does that sit with you?

Then there’s the captains poll, who you giving the arm band to?

MONDAY MORNING GUNK

It’s the middle of our first cold winter in a few, and my misfiring team simply refuses to stay settled this year. This week Stevie J & Beau Waters join Goddard, Dusty & Pendlebury on my bench. This has been a weekly occurrence for me this year in this year to forget. Still managed to grab 1956 which is reasonable for a team missing 5 premiums.

Maybe my priorities are wrong, but I am more concerned about my faltering Dream Team/Super Coach team than I am about Collingwood losing to old rivals, Caaarlton. Of course, it is easy to point to the fact that they were ‘the better team on the night’ both times we played, or, to the fact that Collingwood are generally speaking, travelling o.k.

Managed to win two out of five battles and am out of the eight in all five competitions. Can make the eight in two leagues where I am presently sitting in ninth-mond, don’t look good in the other three, but I can @ least make it difficult for others in the run home, provided of course that I can field a half-decent team @ some point this year.

How about you? Did you win on the weekend? Did you beat me? Are you still in the Eliminator? Are you in the eight? What is your trading position? What did you score?

Let us all know in the thread below…..

Finally, just under 97% of respondents have opined that they do not want byes in next years AFL ‘fixture’. This is a great way for you to have your opinion heard, the more that vote, the more definitive the results are, so make sure you have your say & share this link with anyone else you fancy sharing with. The poll is obviously in this thread above with a couple more, so get clicking…..

ROUND 15…WE HAVE LIFT OFF

Big game tonight between the Pies and the Blues. If you are on-line, feel free to post a comment, otherwise we’ll be here all weekend, so feel free to post subs, late changes, league results, rumours, trades etc in the thread below.

Let’s hope the Pies can get up tonight against a team that is better than it is being portrayed in the mainstream footy media…..Good luck to your team this weekend, Dream Team, SuperCoach Team or AFL Team.

Don’t forget to participate in the bye poll. This is a great opportunity for all footy fans to have your voice heard and your opinions counted.

ROUND 15 TEAMS

Teams in the thread below….

DREAM TEAM CHAT LIVE–ROUND 14, THE RESUMPTION OF NORMAL TRANSMISSION

Back to normal programming, unless your like me & still have Pendlebury on the bench. Injuries & poor form have absolutely cruelled my ambitions in this game this year, so you may wish to avoid my latest recruit Sam Mitchell

How about you? How are you travelling? Did you trade this week? Spill the beans, throw in any subs, late changes, rumours et al in the thread below & good luck to your mob this weekend, lord knows my mob needs some ….

ROUND 13 … LAST OF THE BYES … LIVE CHAT

Finally, we get to the end of the bye carnage, I’m relatively ok this week after the computer/trading disasters of last friday evening. Will have 4 donuts this week, two in defence, one mid and a forward. Have bought in Scott Thompson, Sam Shaw and rolled the dice on Corey D’Dell’Olio. He is a F9 in a settled forward line and hopefully will not require senior selection and made the deal fit. Except for this week. Please play. Gave up Cameron Guthrie, Kyal Horsely & Rhys Stanley so feel good about getting a gun. I want to bring in an under-priced Sam Mitchell cherry ripe from his bye next week to complete the mids next week then a defender the following week & I’ll be done until finals, presuming I make it.

Still, Geelong and Sydney have kicked things off, how are you placed this weekend? Spill the beans in the thread below, late changes, subs, your trades etc etc…

ROUND 12 BYE SAGA PART 2 WRAP UP

Computer dramas have left me in limbo which makes me realise how important these devices are to my functionality. Still, we’re here to talk footy so how did you go? did you get badly burnt or did you trade your way out of it. I couldn’t get in to trade so am left with 11 trades, but have multiple donuts on most lines. I have heard that the AFL wants to expand the byes next year which will be a killer move for fantasy football in my opinion. Those that are good are happy to have these elements in place to illustrate their superior playing ability, but most people are not in that category so they play to be able to have their best cattle on the park and try to beat their mates. It is very similar to the decline in active players as the season progresses because lets face it, once you run out of trades, the game loses a big chunk of it’s appeal.
That said, we are nearly through and can start thinking about the run home, how are you placed? More importantly what is your score & thoughts on this weekend?

Talk in the thread below….

ROUND 11 ROUND UP

Injuries, byes, suspensions & rubbish scores on dream team would seemingly complete a terrible weekend, but no, I had a random bloke fall on me and my mac late sunday arvo destroying my screen in the process Taken me until today to get a replacement up and running and we are back into it tomorrow night. I’m not a fan of footy being played outside of weekend or public holiday hours so this will be an interesting test given this is the first time I’ve been on-line since late sunday arvo. Not sure what I’ll be doing trading wise @ this stage, but for those I scored a staggering 1,498 which amazingly gained me 4/5 wins. How’d you go?

ROUND 11 LIVE DREAM TEAM CHAT

How are you faring? Did you choose Redden over the big O? How about Krooza and the big 211? Can the Dees make it 2 in a row, will Swan run out on monday, and how many donuts are you planning on eating this weekend?

The best news is that Herr Demetriou is hinting that there will be SIX, yes SIX bye rounds next year. It could be the end of fantay football as we know it…….

Still, post your scores in the usual format, that being score/players used/GAJ, trades, subs, late changes,league results etc etc and whack em in the thread below.

ROUND 6 LIVE DREAM TEAM CHAT

WARNOCK IS OUT & Kreuzer is back in the Caaarlton side having recovered from his ‘injury’….nudge, nudge, wink, wink, say no more. Have you made a sneaky friday afternoon trade trying to outsmart your league opponent, or, like me, is your team so shot that you don’t care if your opponent knows what you are going to do? Whack in the subs, your sledges, late changes, captaincy choices and anything else in the chat box below. Good luck to your teams this weekend.

DREAM TEAM CHAT ANZAC DAY TEAMS

Teams in the thread, changes to both sides, don’t forget partial lockout and irreversible trades kick in tomorrow arvo. Feel free to make a comment on this game, Ablett, this weekend or anything you want really. Here’s some Anzac Day Highlights for your enjoyment.

ABLETT OUT 2-3 WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO?

This isn’t necessarily a 2-3 week injury as revealed in this clip by Marcus Ashcroft when he said “hopefully for him it’ll be a 2-3week injury”. That implies that it maybe a little bit more serious than a 2-3 week injury, which may mean that the Gold Coast Suns are lying to the media. This is obviously a shock because AFL clubs NEVER lie to the public & the media. How many weeks does the little master need to miss before you’ll trade him?

SUNDAY NIGHT DREAM TEAM CHAT

Well, it looks like it has been a tough week for many. How did you go? I’m struggling along, my two recruits Whitecross & Stanley combining for 93 pathetic points which are the two lowest individual scores of the weekend so far. Cheers. Martin went bang! with 96, Ellis fired up with 89, Morriss scored better in SC. Giles did his job & covered Mummy with a century, I am considering my options with Mummy, he nearly became 211 late Friday afternoon. Heater is another to come under the microscope. Will probably struggle to post many wins and need Magnet to tonne up for me to crack 2000. I’ve had my worst start since I first started playing this game. Need a liitle luck to go my way.

Whack your scores, team analysis and judgements in the comment thread. Hope your team went well & you beat your opponent -unless it’s me

DREAM TEAM LIVE CHAT ROUND 4

Rumours circulating that Grant Birchall will be a late withdrawal this weekend so make sure you have a defensive emergency switched on in your back 7. Ditto for Fyfe as well, not to mention Sam Gilbert. Know any other late changes? Got the good oil on subs? Maybe you just wanna talk Dream Team footy? The comments box is here to capture your thoughts, so use it. Good luck to your teams.

GEELONG ROOKIE, OUT!

As I understand it, Billie Smedts has a shoulder niggle and will miss 1 week. Amend your team accordingly ensuring that he is not on-field or an emergency. I’d be ensuring that you have a ruck emergency selected if you have Mumford as your ruckman.

ROUND 2 DREAM TEAM CHATBOX

So far, I’m 116/1/GAJ. Use the same format if you want to post your progress score. Place final teams in the thread below as they come through. Put your comments, subs etc in their too. Good luck to your team.

DREAM TEAM DILEMMA

Umming and aaahing over whether to trade or hold Lake. I have Guthrie, on an extended interchange bench, his fate may be the vest, or emergency, whilst Clarke, named on interchange bench, at least should play. I have Ellis as coverage.

Heath Shaw needs to lift and give a bit more than 56. He needs to be delivering like Goddard & Lids. I am sure that he will come good against the tiges on saturday night.

The bigger issue is in my mids….I have Caddy @ M5 in my team, but, on an extended bench @ Gold Coast. My coverage comes at present from Smith, who has also been named on the bench, and who, may be given the vest, with Shiel,waiting in the wings. Shiel, who would normally start, isn’t, due to his shortened pre-season. He may need the extra week or two to run into match fitness.

Who would you play?

ROUND 2.1 DREAM TEAM LIVE CHAT

I’ll be away from the screen for a while so I thought I’d generate this thread for those who want a place to comment on tonight’s game, subs, selection issues, rumours, or the upcoming games on the weekend. Teams are in the thread below, which is you should place your comments. Good luck to your players tonight, and, good luck if you are running the captaincy loophole. I’ll put some stuff up as soon as I’m back on line.

SCOTT PENDLEBURY….IS HE IN YOUR SIDE?

Collingwood’s silky smooth Scott Pendlebury racked up an impressive 136 points in Collingwood’s loss to Hawthorn last friday night. Was he in your team, and, if not, will you snap him up?

MONDAY POST-GAME RECOVERY

MY top defensive score -Bugg 97- was on the bench as was Kennedy’s 116 which would have been handy additions to my barely adequate 2029. My defenders were the weak link with Heater & Lake being the main culprits. Mids performed well with 5 hundreds & Caddy scooping 79. Rucks good & fwd’s should get some improvement out of the rookies. Not generally interested in trading this week unless something irresistable pops up, how about you?

ROUND 1 CHAT

Post your team scores, late changes, subscriptions, rants and gloats right here. Post scores in the following format: Team Name 679/5/N or 918/7/Pendlebury if your el capitano has played. Good luck, full lockout is finally here.

TEAMS ROUND 1

Frustratingly long round. I think if we have rounds structured over two again, then it might be a good idea to have more than one match scheduled, three or four would be ideal.

Good win by Carlton last night, Richmond disappointing. Murphy was brilliant, Kreuzer, Delidio good. Ellis & Morris solid enough on debut. Many popular rookie selections have been selected in teams which is great news for us fantasy coaches. I’m 2 for 2 so far tipping wise how about you?

For those that are interseted I’m tipping Collingwood/Melbourne/Adelaide/North/Fremantle/West Coast & St.Kilda. Feel free to list your tips, thoughts, late changes, subs & rumours in the comment thread below.

CARLTON V RICHMOND ROUND 1.2

The second installment of Round 1 is almost here. I shall be on a paper chase, so will be unavailable till later tonight, so I thought I’d open this now in case anybody wants to chat before, during, or after the game. MAKE SURE YOUR CARLTON & RICHMOND PLAYERS ARE LOCKED INTO WHEREVER YOU WANT THEM!!!! If someone could list the subs here that would be great.
