[span style='font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;]Sub Notifications! How do I get them?



Given I don't have my team entered into My Teams (worst wife ever) I thought I'd enter them in and



answer that much asked question - how do I get sub notifications??! With pictures!



First things first- What are sub notifications?



Basically, you put your team into MyTeams and we send you an email to let you know if any players on any of your teams have been green vested or made a late out, giving you time to get in there and fix your team rather than suffering through a sub-affected score.



This works for SuperCoach (obviously) but also AFL Fantasy, Centerbet, SportsBet and Sportal. We should be getting something up for Stadium Fantasy soon as well to give you guys the edge at winning the fast money over there.



How to get them?



To start, you need to get your team entered into My Teams and uploaded. This can be any flavour of fantasy football that tickles your fancy (Centrebet, AFL Fantasy, SuperCoach, Sportal or Sportsbet) but I'll be entering in my SuperCoach team.



How do I enter my team into My Teams?



1. Go to 'My Teams' on the menu bar above.

2. Click 'Select a Team' button and select 'Create New Team'

3. Fill in the form! Put in the name of your team, the competition it's in (Centrebet, Dreamteam, Sportsbet, Sportal or Supercoach). With 'Type' you can create watchlists or play with the donor league if you're a donor but we're just going to create a supercoach team.

It's been another big week in fantasy sports, with some massive games, some disappointments and a bit of fools gold that is turning out to look a lot shinier than we would have thought.



Fremantle vs Essendon

Result: Essendon by 4.



It was an epic win for the Bombers. A horror week off the field, quickly turned into a horror on the field. I was a wet night, and for the longest time, it seemed that the Bombers couldn't find touch with the ball- with it slipping out of their hands on numerous occations.



It wasn't just with hands that teams were struggling, nor just the Bombers, with Hurley, Ballantyne and Pavlich all putting forward some of the worst shanks at a set shot I've ever seen. Ballantynes literally went sideways. If you haven't seen it, surely it's on YouTube somewhere.



74% of the first quarter was played in the Dockers half, and the second quarter it wasn't much better with the Dockers going into the main break six goals up 7.5 to 1.5



I dunno if there was powder applied to hands, or if things just dried out a little, but when the second half rolled around, it looked a different Bombers outfit. They were direct, their disposal was clean and they dominated. They kicked 5.5 to just 2 behinds, then carried that through to the 4th quarter to hit the lead.



Fremantle struck back with their first goal in 51 minutes, but it was the Bombers who took the lead in the dying minutes due to a Paddy Ryder snap. Chris Mayne had the chance to put his boys back in front, but only managed a posted from his left-foot snap, 15 meters out.



Due to those heroics, Patrick Ryder scored a massive 145SC from just 13 disposals and 25 hitouts. A welcome relief for his coaches, but still concerning.



Jake CARLISLE was fantastic all evening. Kept Pavlich to a minimal impact,...

[span style='font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px;]Footy diets were once pretty simple.


Need protein? Eat steak and fish.



Need carbs? Pasta and bananas.



Need to wake up? Black coffee, no sugar.



Need to write yourself off? Slab of green cans.



As footy deviated onto an increasingly pragmatic trajectory, footballers themselves began to stray from that well-trodden gastronomic path.



Need protein? Blend up a milkshake full of powdered chemicals that will give you backne and liquefy your guts.



Need carbs? No you don't. Carbs make you fat.



Need to wake up? Take five of these No-Doz pills then pop a couple of sleeping pills after the game to knock yourself out.



Need to do a number on yourself? Grab a carton of Cruisers, Breezers or anything that smells like a tropical fruit and matches at least one colour on your sleeve tattoo. But not beer. Too many carbs.



Would Ted Whitten have drunk protein shakes and Midori Illusion Shakers if a sports scientist told him to?



No, he would have whipped up a couple of Molotovs and hurled them at the sports scientist's car.



So what would Mr Football make of the 2012 Essendon Bombers' diet?



Notorious Essendon sports scientist Stephen Dank this week identified a selection of substances he claims to have injected into Essendon footballers last year.



Pig brain peptides, sometimes...

<p style='text-align: justify;]I wonder who would have picked the Top 10 Leaderboard from last week: Watson (166), Westhoff (163), Hanley (160), Elliott (159), Bartel (157), Heppell (149), Wingard (145), McVeigh (144), Bellchambers (144) and Minson (143).

This week we'll be finishing off the corrective trades part of the Best Buys, and trying to take advantage of the upcoming price changes. Any mid-priced options that are failing, or rookie choices that haven't had any game-time, should really be offloaded now before these changes come into effect, otherwise you can miss out on some serious cash generation.



The Best Buy this week, is Charlie Dixon. While Howlett and Libba were both also strong contenders, Dixon looks to be set for a real break-out year and is a huge POD at a great price.



The rookies haven't been looked at in depth, but they have been given an estimate of what price increase they are looking at after their next game, going by their current average.



The Waiting List section includes rookies who have only played one game, the score from which is denoted by the *, and premium players who look set to drop in value with their expected decrease included also.



Now, onto the Best Buys.

By William Thomson from backpagelead.com.au

Melbourne supporters have gone 'feral', abandoning decorum and patience following this disastrous start to the season.


The club has been bullish about its future for years and dragged its faithful along for a journey built on what appears to be false hope. Supporters can't help but feel made the fool and the tipping point has been reached. When Mark Neeld uttered the words 'rebuilding the rebuild', that was enough to warrant giving up.



The past two weeks have seen supporters clamber towards the player's race in their hundreds at the end of the game, leaning over the fence to hurl abuse at a group of players that have shown largely nothing in season 2013. The oldest club in the land has an identify far removed from booing players, and in some ways is a refreshing reminder of just how much they care. If anything, Melbourne fans have been accused of being dispassionate.



Plenty of clubs in the past have endured lean periods and heavy losses, but the manner in which Melbourne has made failure a characteristic is truly unique.



For supporters, the agony is made worse by the difficulty in apportioning blame as the media throws up a multitude of explanations from the board to the boot studder.



History's losers have seldom been as complex as Melbourne. More often than not, a club's shortcomings are as simple as blaming the coach or waiting for a list to develop.



Melbourne's rot is deeply ingrained and there is an argument to assign equal amounts of blame to all facets of the club.



The administration and board has done a terrific job in eradicating debt and at least ensuring some financial stability, but CEO Cameron Schwab has been divisive - from my perspective as a fan - and was at one point sacked before being re-hired. There is undoubtedly a level of incompetence at the top level that is filtering through the halls at AAMI Park.



In being pushed to resign on...
