Well we are coming off Women's Round, but didn't know that the top 2 would be girls! That's an amazing stat. Well done to them both :)

I was told by someone on BigFooty that there's a guy with multiple teams in SC, DT, Sportal and SportsBet fantasy, and that Angela's Angels is one of them. Apparently you can pick his teams because they all have stupid names with alliteration, like Angela's Angles, Rocco's Rollers or Tina's Titans.

I sent a message to VS about this but they haven't responded. Not sure whether they care, but perhaps others should spam VS until they do something about it because if it's true that someone has so many teams it is unfair on people who only have one team.

I would hope thats not the case.
Ive always found it odd that theres nothing stopping anyone from making multiple teams. Not much they can do I guess.

Surely hes shooting himself in the foot though by using a girls name. If hes to win they will take one look at him and realise hes a fraud?

I imagine that if it's true then he'll get caught out eventually, but perhaps he has put the teams in the names of people he knows? I'm not sure - I'm just relaying info that's from a guy off BigFooty.

Yeah well hopefully he gets done. They should ban anyone that does this forever IMO
Would hate to think how many of the 370,000 teams are doubles, triples etc

After I read the claims on BF it sort of made sense to me because when I was checking out teams on SportsBet's rankings early on this year I noticed about half a dozen teams that were almost identical. They all started out with a McIntosh-Giles ruck combo, they all had Riewoldt,SJ, Chappy, Lake, Bugg, Deledio, I think Hargrave and Clarke too.

to be fair, those are all really common players.

If they'd all started with like maric and stanton, then I'd be sus :P

In all honesty does it matter that a person has 1, 2 or 15 teams? I think good on them for increasing their chances. Look at this scenario ... someone buys 1 lotto ticket and doesn't win but someone buys 20 tickets and wins with one of them ... should he not be entitled to the winnings just because he gave himself better odds??

Yes it does matter since it states in the rules for SC that you can only have one team.

twinkle · July 23, 2012, 01:10:24 PM

Also you PAY to buy a lotto ticket - the more tickets bought the more $ to give away. Not a good analogy.

It wasn't only those players - they had 25+ players in common, but I can't remember them all.

BBosCo · July 23, 2012, 03:52:09 PM

not trying to be sexist, but im pretty confident those teams are just coached by men using there missus's account to make another team. i know for a fact the my mate uses his girlfriends account and that team is ranked in the top 50 in DT and SC.
