e-AFL e-AFL Round 1 - Carlton v North Melbourne at Marvel Stadium, Saturday 28th March 6.30PM (AEDT)

[Ant Bear]

Saturday 28th March 6.30PM (AEDT)



Please join us on Sunday, as e-AFL makes its debut. With the real season in limbo, our team will recreate the terminated AFL season in a series of simulated games, in a jam-packed, action-filled series of 153 games plus a finals series.

These are simulated games, using the names of AFL players, but all teams have an equal chance. There is as much hope for Suns supporters as there is for the West Coast fans of a premiership at the end. There is no home ground advantage, and the weather conditions are random but do affect the type of game.

The sim program also gives votes towards a Brownlow Medal for each game, which will be compiled and a winner announced during finals. Hot tip: the followers have the best chance of scoring votes.

With so little else on, sit back and cheer your e-AFL team to victory.

This game is between the Carlton Blues and the North Melbourne Kangaroos, at Marvel Stadium, and your match poster will be Wooshette, who will advise a broadcast time when she is ready.

The teams are as named for the real round 1, with the last 2 bench players omitted.

​

When was it announced that the season had been terminated?

 

[Rod Stroker]

Can someone explain how these e-matches work?

 

[Jeremias]

We'll probably lose this one, because I've had no input into team selection.

We're a very, very good football side and I'm not expecting to lose a game from R2. Winning this week is a bonus.

 

[Harvey Manfrenjensenden]

Can someone explain how these e-matches work?

A bit like e-cigarettes

Just had a look at the North line up , i stand by my comment.

Just had a look at the North line up , i stand by my comment.

I don't remember Carlton beating us since Jarred Waite was playing for them. In fact, he was auditioning for his club that night.

At least in this format Paddy Dow has a 50% chance of getting a touch
