Fj for you.....

Confucius say… crowded elevator smells different to midget.

Not really into fantasy footy, but I notice you guys talking about changes in team lineup a lot. Is the rule , you can choose any player at all from any time and change the whole lineup every week?

Or can you do only so many changes?

No kid you have it all wrong...you have a grace period prior to start of Fantasy season where you can chop and change as much as you want...once the Fantasy season starts your locked into no more than 2 changes a week come bye time you get 3 changes a week.....its a lot of fun and you dont need a white board and 3 laptops open at the same time as my opponent who is taking it dam seriously.....looks like Fj is one of them who hates to loose....i on the other hand play to win...there is a difference ....i dont stay up all night pondering...checking my opponents teams .... once i locked it in dont change either in tipping of fantasy......i set my team up at the begging of the season then forever tinkering to fine tune...

 

To play fantasy well is like most things there are a few avenues to to the same desired outcome in the end cost of player should not determine his value for me form is everything, in form you play well against anyone.....Mr Fj pits his incoming against who there playing....a rather flawed way of going about it i think....

[farmerjo]

Two and a half hours left to chop and change.?

Can't work out my Captain Alex,going to crack a big bottle of Leo's finest and ponder some more.

What the weather like in the city of trams.

[stud858]

cheers for the info.

so do you go to a particular website to do this fantasy thingy?

are there different fantasy leagues or most just do an official afl one?

[AlexRRR]

Stick to Laird....i WILL change my captain if you do too....hehehe

Last 2 years Mr Chooks has gratefully paid to have a closed comp for us cheap charlies assuming he or another one of the brothers coughs up guys wanting to play will be notified of a code to enter you WILL need to register with the AFL Fantasy (same if you would like to join tipping though this one is free) then pop in your code that will take you to the Cheap Charlie fantasy Thai Visa Comp for over the hill and almost dead farangs....

All good Alex,although it's going to be drawn out.

Been good to have a nice build up to a GF.?

Hope there's bit more banter over the weekend.

My side is settled with Waite in for Caddy and Cunnington is out,replaced by Ross who will be Captain.

So you will get the runs on the board and i hope i can come home with a wet sail.

Was going to say good luck but that would be unfair on myself in a two horse race.

[AlexRRR]

I trust you to stick with your NEW captain though i know nothing is fair in love and war....Ive switched to Crow Crouch with Mitchel vic....Good that you didnt go with Laird he tends to wander off the path late in the season did it last year and again this year i dumped him a few weeks ago.....

 

I have the JW Black out, a few bottles of red and a big box of James Boags Premuim ready for the big GF celebrations....we dont do the cheapie Leo stuff here at Dee land....

 

Its on the Day.....who is going to go well and how is slightly off.....

 

Who starts the Friday night well tends to go all the way little stevie...my 4 against your 3....here we go here we goooo the Flag is coming home to Melbourne.....

It's getting tight at the top in the tipping fella's

Ripstanley picked Essendon and moved to outright second

just 1 behind grannysapples. Rip also has a better percentage.

 

Will Mr Smith sleep ok tonight or will he be tossing and turning?

Will Ron make a late charge?

 

Looks as if there is one fitty fitty game tomorrow being the Hawks

versus Sydney.

We know Rip always picks Sydney.

Will Buddy come up?

 

Any other upsets on the horizon for tomorrow?

Freo a sneaky against Collingwood?

I hope so.

 

Good luck guys.

 

Stay tuned...…..

You never know what may happen in Rd 23?

[ripstanley]

What about the other 50/50 game.

 

Brisbane V WCE

 

Brisbane are likely to win this.

I did say tomorrow

 

You're killing me Rip.

Are you sure you're not Victorian

[AlexRRR]

Typical Port back em they loose pic dont pick them they win...was like that 2 seasons ago with them...worse I had 3 off them in my fantasy team with 2 dropping the ball last night...

 

Poor Jack was lost at sea last night number 23 for a first round draft pick...how embarrassing though the Port coach might make a man of him but nope...when the team isn't going well poor jack is on a lift raft on his own...he is a receiver and if your not getting the ball J Watts looks bad.....the rest of there recruits didn't fare any better its back to the white board for Koch and co....

 

If Demons beat GWS and they should considering they WILL field half a team we might actautly get past the elimination final.....if we stumble its curtains week uno.....no duo......

 

Little stevie will be smug this morning but hey....its only the first quarter fella....the wine is getting opened tonight....

[farmerjo]

I must of been watching a different game last night.

All the commentators were that far up Boak turning the middle around.

It stood out like dogs balls to me it was clearly my guy Wingard and when he left the ground the Bombers scored.

Your cheapie backman had me nervous after 32 in the 1st quarter,but turned out,well,to be a cheapie.?

My last request today is Steven May falls like a clumbsy clown into Hawkins.

Cmon the Flyers.

<deleted> Port Adelaide! Christ alive! Should've known better...

 

I reckon the Lions are a sneaky against your boys Will. Don't know if the Dockers will come back from that belting last weekend, they were beaten well beyond submission and were pushing Stockholm Syndrome levels.

Holding onto that 1 point pretty tightly ?

[ripstanley]

Buddy is out of tonight's game. Bookies now have Swans and Hawks at $1.92. Big decision coming up.

 

Edit

Luke Parker also out 

 

Go the Swans

Edited August 25, 2018 by ripstanley

[stud858]

Tigers win!

I hope they swap out canstsnya . he's kicking poorly. Give Sam loyd more games.

Otherwise team seems streamlined. .looks like jack has the Coleman.

 

[ripstanley]

First time I have picked against the Swans in 2 years. Reverse psychology might work tonight. Come on Swans still a long way to go.

[Will27]

Well gang

Another sleepless night for  grannyapples AKA Grant Smith as ripstanley 

pulls of a sneaky and tips against his beloved Swans.

 

Rip has picked 6 from 6 so far and GS has hit a speed bump.

 

Ron is still in with a chance but would need everything to go his way.

 

Our footy tipping comp is as close as the ladder and it could come

down to the last game of the year.

 

Reckon all 3 games could go either way tomorrow as well.

 

Has ripstanley got the minerals to stay on top or will Mr Smith

do what he's been doing all year and come home strongly.

 

Freo just let me down boys or I was in with a sneaky

 

 

It's for all of the marbles tomorrow.

 

Best of luck.

The premiership quarter has gone and the DD's lead FJ'S flyers 1711 to 1485 in the Fantasy.

FJ still has 10 to play with one being captain(double points) and the Delightful Dees 7 to play.

I suspect Alex has indulged in the Black label,Red label,all his red wine and half of the James Boag.

FJ has quietly been sipping away on Leo's finest. 

Lets see what tomorrow brings?

Actually I don't pay anything, it's free to set up a comp.

Ahhhhh your boys have been almost perfect a couple of excellent scores Macrae 190, Duncan 136 even Laird pulled 138....you virtually haven't had an un under performer...

 

The 2 shit Port boys cost be 70 points off average plus Captain Crouch had an off game in a blitzing team...work that one out...Luke Parker was a late omission though reasonable score from Sier for 79 through Luke often pulls the ton and better...I figured I needed to be 400 up Sunday morning....236 points up ONLY.....not looking good....But Can the Flyers hold on to a perfect game? You really only have one ace in that group of 6 while in my 3 there are 2 aces.....3 North boys might bring you unstuck dear Stevie....Saints are Rattling hot plus the Dee's if they get on a roll could easily keep Taranto nice and quite.....Frost would pick him up im pretty sure and be running off him all day long.....

 

Just 3 wines last night old bean...not the jim....I worked laying pavers to my front portico yesterday and was not in the mood for celebrating as I dont count my chickens before there a week old...You know Demon supporters all own SUV's and go to the snow during winter thats why crowds are down at the G during snow season...Not really true as I dont own an SUV and I hate snow.....

 

Looks like the Grand final WILL pull a record score im due to hit 2400 which means you will too so it takes it into unknown territory and an all time record for sure....you could easily break my home and away score if the 3 North led balloons do there job..

[AlexRRR]

Half time in theSaints North game and your 100 points down Fj......... will you sneak through? Bet you cant hold your Leo fella youwould r so nervous....

Still a few more minuets to go in the last game of the season....congratulations to Fj for taking off the coveted TV fantasy flag and joining the elite Grant and myself unlucky in defeat once again but never mind we live to fight another day..and congratulations to Rip who cannot be beaten in the tipping and commiserations to Grant who lead i think for 21 of the 23 games very stiff i think.....Dark horse Rip came from nowhere...well done guys...

Thanks Alex,thanks also to Chooks for organising it and everyone who played.

Hopefully we can get a few more starters next year.

As said,well done Rip in the tipping.

Last one the fantasy score was 2566 to 2374 

[Will27]

Well gang

That's it for another year.

 

Ripstanley saved his best until last to pick the card and not only

win the round, but storm home to win the comp.

I think ripstanley is our (TV) only multiple winner so far.

 

Grannsyapples was in front for most of the year and was just pipped at the post

to finish 2nd. A huge effort.

One and two for our Sydney boys.

 

Ron19 was only a couple of the pace and finished with the bronze.

 

All in all, another great year with it going right down until the last day.

 

A couple of suggestions for next year.

Maybe a separate thread for the fantasy footy boys?

 

Secondly, we have currently 13 tipsters with a few that don't contribute

to the forum. Maybe a cull?

 

Anyway, looking forward to the finals and good luck to your teams.

Unless you happen to be Collingwood supporter

Thanks Will  for your postings each week with the results. Thanks also to Ron for the weekly results posting.

This is my first win of the tipping.

Grants tipping was great and well done. Great to see Swans supporters 1 and 2.

The first LEO is being consumed as I type.
