Would anyone be interested in giving Ultimate footy a crack?

Will sign up for the banter league when I get to work. Happy to give ultimate footy a go if others are keen

 

[TedDougChris]

In again this year as Anderson Council....

 

[swanton]

Have joined both

The DT board is so much quieter this year. A lot of the regulars don't seem to be around either.

Still 7 more spots to fill.

Yeah ive noticed it, I mean I am part of the problem, ive barely posted
But the boards are muh quieter
Will kick up when season stars

 

[Dannnnnnnnnn]

Maybe tag the lazy buggers that were a part of the banter league last year but haven't joined yet? It's weird to think that we had to run two leagues last year and this year we can't even fill one.

Yeah I did a couple of days ago. I don't know if the tagging system is having dramas or if people just aren't interested in joining this year.

i think they realize they aren't good enough to compete with the real warriors!...

I think the changes have driven a few of the regular players away. In addition the market is oversaturated. There is DT, Ultimate DT, Fantasy AFL, Supercoach etc etc... I'd love to have a shot in all of these, but don't have the time. If you add these things together, perhaps a few of last years regulars have moved onto different formats...

 

[Jars458]

Just joined both leagues. I htink the split this year has driven people to SuperCoach. I havn't been offered a BF League yet other than CrowsDivision1. Anyone else in the same boat?

 

[SloppyJoe]

Due to work-related time constraints, I just haven't had the time to put in the preparation this year. I hope to get a good look at things over the next couple of nights. Also, like TDC said, I think over-saturation is an issue. I had a hard enough time just focusing on one format last year (I started SC, but didn't carry on with it) - having two formats this year has kind of demotivated me.

Does anyone know if all board leagues are full and ready to go?

 

[Butler]

It is a problem in general but I don't see how it is a major problem with this league unless it's shoved everyone over to SC (which I know a couple have).

This league is available for both DTs. People don't have to sign up for just one. I will send out some PMs when I get the chance and see if we can't fill up the rest of this league.

Nope, not ours. Which is the norm most years though, our board is low on posters at the best of times, let alone fantasy players. But with Fanhub running things now, leagues which aren't full will not be auto completed upon lockout. So basically there goes our chance at fielding a league, which is a shame as I really enjoy it. Glad to see that Fanhub recognises that that "is less than ideal" though

The Board championship is run on Real DT, but I thought each needed 18 BF members anyway?

First I've heard of that, our head of league is organising it for fantasy. Will have to get onto that.

They do, but there's been an exception for our board in recent years due to lack of numbers. We generally get around 10-14 and the rest of autofilled, which is then allowed to keep all 18 clubs in the como.

EDIT: Yeah VS version, don't know how that didn't get heard over at ours.

 

[FlowersByIrene]

Well im im both and im gonna kick allllll ya'll asses

 

[DaTBird187]

4 still needed to fill this. Are any still to join?

 

[SloppyJoe]

perhaps chuck a post in one of the 'rate my team' threads, or even just a link to this thread.

 

[VSTone]

anyone thinking they've got a good squad sorted?

almost time for the cream to rise!!! good luck troops.

 

[Jars458]

Using a fun squad in AFL Fantasy and a reasonably serious one in Real Dream Team. Rookies tough this year and not happy with forward premiums as I am not sold on Martin if he is playing half back.

 

[Clint Beastwood]

I'll have a go at both if there are any spots left

 

[Dannnnnnnnnn]

You're in luck with RDT - one spot left. Code is 388878.

I can't load AFL Fantasy to save my life at the moment so I'm not sure if there are spots available. Code is 4RE4PNPW though, so worth a try.

 

[Butler]

Wow.. last time I checked we still needed a heap of people. Dunno where these others have come from.

I will close that thread on the main DT board then.
