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.

So according to what your saying a girl couldn't possibly be good enough to be on top of the SC rankings.

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

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??

horrendous analogy. it's not even on the mark, but the one and only point that needs to be brought up to counter is that SC ToS say you cannot multi-team.

but hey, good luck with angelas angels it'd be a shame if you got caught.........

How about we just assume they are doing well in SC because they are good at it?

Couple of very knowledgeable women on this site, no reason not to think there are others

+ 1 Without giving fanfooty names away agree we have a couple of very knowledgeable ladies contributing on this forum. I for one appreciate their comments.  Do not make the assumption that footy knowledge is a male domain.

Yes and I have been on the receiving end in leagues. And congratulations to them on a job well done.

yea mate it does, it decreases our chances and if an individual had multiple teams around the top in overall, other teams might even do trades that they wouldn't ?? but thats prob a bit padantic. the fact there is cash monet up for grabs mate, they have a legal obligation to ensure its an honest comp. it really annoys me, never made multiple teams and it would seem one would benefit masively from doing so in the overall race if the person wasn't caught

Second the thoughts of Torress. Plus, if you don't set a limit, somebody will design a program to have the billions of combinations available, and guarantee a win.

Whatever combination won would still need legit personal details though?

If their is no limit you can use your own details for all the teams...

I cant see why it couldn't be an all girls league as said already we have some very good female coaches here that can go toe to toe with any male coach and beat them (Thanks Roch). Its a bit arrogant to think only a mainly male league could win DT or SC.

What about the poor blokes with girls names (like me). Only one team but if i put my name in my team name - who knows?
