Ultimate Team AFL: Discussion + Banter thread

Can we have a way of playing 2 rucks?

I think the only logical way of doing that would be to either add another ruck position, or have an interchange. Having another ruck position I don't think would be a good idea, as rucks are pretty hard to come by. That then leaves having an interchange/utilities, where people would just stack with mids, similar to XVs comps, and again, this wouldn't be ideal.

What do you guys think about a recycling option for the cards?

For example, 3 of the same rarity of card could be traded in for the same rarity of that card.

Eg 3 golds for a new gold. 3 platinums for a new platinum?

If you like it, when would we implement it or not this season?

I love it.

happy to implement it right now personally.

probably would have used it a few times.

Got Devon Smith as 1 recycle card.

I like it, but wouldn't want it to be introduced this year. Mainly because someone such as Nige has already sold Vince (or whoever it was), and with this rule in place I'd imagine he wouldn't have done that. Others might have done something similar (e.g. trading in 3 Silvers instead of selling for Gold)

I do like the idea though :)

I have Gawn and Stef, and although Stef has gone back to 2013 form, it feels bad having a platinum sitting in the emergencies

Someone please help me choose 8 players.

DEF: Two of Gibbo Savage Suckers Smith Burgoyne Baguley
MID: 1 of Ebert Duncan Cripps Hanley Guthrie
FWD: 2 of Wells Greene Hall Hogan

All decent players too.

Already locked in Treloar Gibbs. Aaaaaaand Smith in ruck fml

Finding defence the hardest line easily.

[GoLions]

Suckers, Burgoyne, Duncan, Greene, Wells

[_wato]

Suckers, Burgoyne, Duncan, Greene, Wells

Mhm. Just had a look and have locked in Hall, low of 94 and averaging 112. Mad to not play him. Thinking Greene over Wells too.
Duncan and Suckers in. Last def spot is tough though.

If I get 3 of the Captain Card and/or Finals HGA cards, can I combine them like I did the regular HGA cards? That'd be cool.

Look, it probably is, but I thought I may as well try my luck.  :P

Another piece of general feedback:
I'm not a massive fan of cards on auction being able to be bought by everyone (such as this week)
I simply feel that the more unique cards there is to each team, the more interesting the competition.
If you are the first in, you deserve to snag a great card available to buy now, everyone else misses out.
If everyone can purchase a Shane Savage or Daniel Wells, there might as well be no teams with them.

Thanks for the feedback. I did try and set the price really high for those cards so that everyone wouldn't buy them. However, after about a few hours I regretted adding in the good silvers for reasons as you mentioned. I liked the idea of the cheap ones being there though and I did limit it to 2 per person max (so not everyone would get the same ones!)

Probably won't be doing it again unless it is 1 per person and a much larger range (but still doubt it).

Also probably should do more silent auctions...

Just quietly.

Has anyone noticed Holz's team? Insane.
