TooSerious

In both of the TS NFL leagues there were some close matchups, some blowouts, playoff changing wins and losses. There were standout performances and there were players who could have given a lot more. How did your team fare in week 9 ? Which players got you the win ? Which players were you cursing ? For all the reviews and commentary for week 9 please join Stowie and myself as we wrap up all of the results.

LEAGUE 1 (REVIEW BY STOWIE)

WEEK 9 RESULTS

Jimbos Juggernaut (jimbowan) 78 def Under Achievers (UnderAchievers) 79

The Under Achievers score a crucial one point win keeping their playoff chances well and truly alive. It was Issac Redman (20fpts) doing the damage with support from Philip Rivers (14fpts). Jimbos had good performances from Reggie Wayne (13fpts) and Jimmy Graham (13ftps) but injuries to Charles and Harvin proved costly. The Dolphins D/ST (-3fpts) almost cost UA the win.


Show Me Ya TDs (wateman) 137 def Team Wiggles (Wiggles) 102

Wiggles would have been jumping for joy with ADP (31fpts) winding back the clock and putting up big points, but it didnt last long... Rookie Doug Martin (54fpts) exploded for the TDs scoring four touchdowns. The 54fpts ranks right up there with the best fantasy performances ever (Fez has the numbers) and more importantly keeps TDs in the race for a playoff spot.


Vicks Dog Fighters (Fez) 124 def TooSerious TooSeriousesses (walesy) 55

Last week having two players on the bye cost TooSerious the win, this week they had one but it didnt influcence the result. The Dog Fighters had big scores from Marshall (30fpts) and Beastmode Lynch (20fpts) while Peyton Manning (19fpts) continues his excellent season coming back from injury.


Massillon Tigers (Johnson) 89 def by Adelaide Maggotz (Maggots) 108

Maggotz continue their good run after a slow start, as they continue to follow Aaron Rodgets (26fpts) fortunes. The Bears D/ST (26fpts) have aslo been...

Yep, test test testestestestes

So the 2013 AFL fixture is out!

<a href="http://www.afl.com.au/fixture/tabid/10586/default.aspx" target="_blank">Check out the full fixture here[/url]

For a quick look at those all important bye rounds though:

R11: Lions, Freo, Hawks, Port, Tigers, Bulldogs.
R12: Cats, Melbourne, North, Saints, Swans, West Coast.
R13: Crows, Carlton, Collingwood, Essendons, Gold Coast, GWS

My first quick thoughts on those byes is that round 13 could get nasty, with a lot of good Midfield options out.

But Im thinking its those ruck options in round 12 that will hurt the most. McIntosh, Goldy and NitNat should all be high on the list, which could make Roughy and Ryder (R/F) worth their weight in gold!

Ill try to get a bit more study done throughout the day, but in the meantime, what are your thoughts?

Howdy all, It was a strange old week of action that wouldve left many tearing their hair out( thankfully not me though). All games are belatedly  covered over the break....<!--more-->

Stoke v Sunderland

There’s not much can be read into this game as it had 0-0 written all over it even before kick off. Sessegnon was dropped to the bench until the 61st min when he replaced Larsson while Bardsley came on for the last 10mins after injury.

Stoke had Wilson stretchered off with a broken ankle. Huth couldve conceded a penalty he also may have scored. It was a poor game lacking incident. Move on.

Chelsea v Man Utd 2-3

Man Utd won their 1st game at The Bridge for ten years with more than a little help from the officials. Most notably an unjust 2nd yellow for Torres for diving as well as Chicharito’s offside winner.

RVP was again on fire with a goal and an assist, Chicarito came off the bench and followed up his midweek brace with a goal which surely puts pressure on Welbeck. David Luiz scored an unfortunate own goal. Valencia and Rafael with the other assists. Young started the match.

Ramires started with Lampard out injured and he scored while man of the moment Mata again scored. Oscar and Hazard provided the assists. Ivanovic also saw red and along with Torres will miss the midweek cup match. None of Hazard, Oscar or Mata finished the match but that was for tactical reasons after the red cards.

Man City v Swansea 1-0

Graham and Dyer both started the game on the bench as Michu again took his place as the lone striker. He had a couple of opportunities but was thwarted by Hart.

Man City were lacklustre and had Tevez to thank for the win. Nastasic started as out of favour Lescott stayed on the bench until the 90th min. Richards was taken off with a serious looking knee injury and Kolarov was also injured.

Vorm, who was also taken off injured, didn’t have a save to make until the 38th minute. Tremmel (4.0m) replaced him.

Wigan v West Ham...

We are now down to the business end of the season, week 8 is now done and dusted with a few of the teams now separating themselves out on top while for others, all they can hope for is a few more wins to influence the final standings come playoff time. How did your team go this week ?......check out below for the reviews.

THE KEEPER LEAGUE (REVIEW BY bgt2110)

Jimbo’s Juggernaut (104) def Brady’s Bunch (85)

After a shaky start it was Jimbo who came away with a much needed win against the Bunch who would be ruing a lost opportunity to catch up with the leaders. I thought Romo(19) was going to have a stinker after a couple of early interceptions, one a pick 6 but he came back strongly to be the equal high scorer for Jimbo along with kicker Tynes(19) who is now the number 1 fantasy kicker. McCoy(18) and Luck(15) provided much needed scoring power after Charles (0) and Cruz(2) had very quiet days after some huge performances previously. The Bunch were well served by Alex Smith(21) and Vick Ballard(12) who has been a handy waiver pick up whilst Nelson(0) was a big late out with a niggling hamstring complaint.

Both teams now sit at 3-5.

Team Simonoz (89) def Canuck Warriors (66)

Simonoz bounced back this week to beat the highly fancied Canuck outfit who would feel this loss hard after surrendering their one game lead over everyone else. It makes the fight for top position in the league all the more interesting now that 3 teams are all sitting at 6-2. Simonoz welcomed back Vick(15) who is a vital contributor for Simonoz even though he is getting heat for the Eagles with some underwhelming performances, if he can really get his act together he is capable of putting up regular 30 ftps games. Brandon Lloyd(14) and McFadden(13) were invaluable whilst Ponder(13) is capable of much more. It was a rare down day for Canuck in front of a packed home stadium crowd but it failed to bring out the best in everyone except...

The drafts have now been completed for all 3 leagues and a list of all the draft selections for each league is found in the comments below.

It is now important for everyone to update their trading block. This allows other teams in your league to see what players are available for trade and what players are untouchable. Trading is one of the key parts of the game and can become very addictive!

All trades take 48 hours to go through and league members have the opportunity to veto the trade if they wish to do so.

Let us know in the comments as to how you think you went in the draft?

Also, you may want to start the trash talking in the comments as well.

WEEK 7 RESULTS – LEAGUE 1

Show Me Ya TD’s (wateman) 66 at Team Stowie (stowie) 87

Stowie’s fortunes continue to rise and fall with 1st round pick CJ0K (32fpts). His performance this week was enough to drag the rest of the team over the line. TD’s had Brady (17fpts) and rookie RB Martin (17fpts) lead the way in a low scoring affair.

Vick’s Dog Fighters (Fez) 88 at Team Wiggles (Wiggles) 83

That’s 3 in a row now for Fez and the Dog Fighters are looking like the team to...
