[dont bowl there]

which 3 of the following 4?

s.thompson, pavlich, riewoldt and j.brown

They are all going to average near 100 so it really doesnt matter. Pick the three players you like to watch best.

 

[T Rick]

Reilly or Wells?

Wells

Nah pretty positive actually.
I just know when something is a waste of time and money.

Doing a WHOLE team now = waste of time.
Paying 40 bucks for that = waste of money.

mate, if people want to spend time on starting to structure up their side and focus in on the players they are looking at and drawing up draft sides, then let them. What's it to you? Noone asked if you thought it was a good idea or not. Similarly, if someone loves their DT and wants some toilet reading during preseason then who the **** are you to say it's a waste of money? If it helps them in achieving a higher ranking then that's great, if not, it'll at least provide some entertaining reading.

Its exactly the same as you saying all the above.
That is you stating your opinion.
I was stating mine.
No one asked me if it was a good idea?
Well no one asked you either.

I never said it was a good idea or a bad idea. If someone enjoys doing something, let them do it. Why flame them for their hobby? Anyways, good luck for the season.

HBG apparently got a high ranking without the Prospectus.

Hes a good DTer.

I haven't done that.
I've been a regular high poster on the DT boards for the last 3 years so it would be a bit hypocritical of me.

All I said is I find it a waste of time organising your whole side now. Sure if you want make a list of players (although I would only make a mental one) We have no official prices or salary cap so I don't see the point of whole sides.

If someone wants to do it good luck to them. I received a PM from someone asking advice and I gave my advice but followed with if it were me I wouldn't make a decision about anything until the thing opens. I would strongly recommend that to anyone. I don't really see that as shooting someone down for making a side.

Thanks, I think I'll need it since I am going away mid season again. Good luck yourself

HBG?

HBG - Hard Ball Get who is wasting a shiteload of time bagging everyone for wasting their time making up a team at this stage.

Again, not bagging anyone.
Just said I thought it was a waste of time because you will most likely have to start over anyway.

 

[happy_eagle]

its the same every year

people busy planning, and people busy bagging, the people planning

get over it

so you're using your valuable time constructively by bagging others...

I feel like a coach spitting out the same answer post game.
I didn't bag others. Just said I thought it was a waste of time as you will have to change it dramatically.

So right now I am wasting my valuable time explaining to people the difference.

And you saying this over and over isn't a waste of time?

 

[Hawks 08]

Is Prospectus out yet?

 

[chickens_law]

HBG, what ranking you get in 07?

 

[Quigley]

Is Prospectus out yet?

Preordered ones expected to be delivered next week apparently.

 

[Hard Ball Get]

And you saying this over and over isn't a waste of time?

No I just said above that it was a waste of time. You must not have bothered to read that far.
However I am not agonising over any decisions or 'researching' my answers

I don't see why you prefer telling everyone else what to do (or not to do) than do some actual research of your own, but whatever floats your boat mate

I'll enjoy hearing how you go next year, you'd want to do pretty well

 

[Hard Ball Get]

HBG, what ranking you get in 07?

Just outside top 1000
Which I was very happy with because I went to the States mid June and got back late July. I only checked my side once in that time. (I got lucky and it was the week after Petterd got injured if I recall correctly.)

Also finished 145 (I think) in supercoach again despite going overseas. I think I could have given it a crack if I hadn't.

As I said in an earlier post I'm heading away again this year, although I'm traveling Australia this time so hopefully I will be able to keep an eye on the team.

Big fat Bob volunteered to look after my team while I was away last year and Nebula1971 recommended him but I thought it wouldn't be so much 'my' team when I got back so I passed.

 

[bloods01]

Is Prospectus out yet?

It should be some time in the next week or so. I hope so anyway.

 

[Hard Ball Get]

Anyone see the article on Mark Johnson starring in their intra club?
If the price is right?
Or a flat out no...?
