160 Minutes of Madness inc.....

[mattys123]

Ok, so we are getting close to the deadline.

Problem is, this year, like last, we have a Thursday game to open, this means;

1. Carlton v Richmond sides will be named Wednesday night
2. Geel v Hawthorn, Coll v Adel, named in full 5.00pm Thursday
3. All other games named with 25, extended benches, 5.00pm Thursday

This will give all of us 2 hours and 40 minutes before the ball bounces at the G at 7.40, which isnt much time to make those last minute changes because your starting rookie hasnt been picked etc.

Thats the 160 MINUTES OF MADNESS, ENJOY

Its not worth it people.

If you are still making changes to your team at this point anyway your not going to get very far.

DONT RISK IT!

Too many people including me were caught out in the last 4 hours re teams in 2008 and couldnt complete what they wanted to .
My team is DONE .

It seems to be slowed a little bit today even

What time did Round 1 start last year? From memory we didn't get 2 hours 20 minutes, as there was a double header to start the season.

Question... If i go in to make a change to my team on Thurs night the whole system shits itself and I cant re-save my team, will I lose my team completely or will I simply end up with the team I had since my last save?

I'm pretty sure you will have the team you had since your last save.

Just finalise it tomorrow night and if you need to tinker then hope its working thursady

Cheers Juddy, so if this is the case then what are people so worried about?

Not worth risking imo, we've all spent countless hours finalising our teams so you should have your round one team locked in by now. As for the rookies playing - Robinson, Ziebell, Anthony, Jacobs, Thorp, Broughton all look like they're a lock for the first round, so if you have a combination of any of them you should be safe.

although coaches have been known to hurt you when you place trust in them

Not necessarily.

We don't know how it works. Last year, some people's teams were 'saved' by the system with 29 or so players as they were in the process of making a trade. Therefore as soon as Lockout occurred, their teams were deleted for being incomplete

 

[Cruiserweight Champ]

Laidley will play them - people take this game very seriously if you catch my drift.
