AXVs: Official Discussion Thread

[tor01doc]

Maca, are you a world's coach?

[tor01doc]

Ahhh - Mexico City!

Nice - and SC scoring is the best!

(That old chestnut!)

[Colliwobblers]

worlds has its own issues now and i sure the lads will fix it, but it was the creation, the original so it has it's rightful place as the premier ( means first) competition.

That doesnt mean it will be the best, but we are all one big family, need to make sure we run 4 great competitions and everyone involved is happy and enjoys it.

that must be the main game.

I am biased but i love the rules and setup of our AXVs I think the scoring method be it SB SC DT ect matters a bit in who you recruit to your list but it is definately not the main part of what we do, managing your list, recruiting drafting and trading is.

Look forward to seeing how we all go in our first season and I think we have good checks and balances in place to make sure we sail past the troubles the original comps have run into with list management and trading.

time will tell but i am quietly confident we have our setup right... maybe too many list movements allowed in 8 but that was popular - everyone loves to trade, but we can adjust if and when it seems appropriate to adjust things.

for now i reckon we got it about right,,,,, bring on the AXVs National draft already.... 6 weeks... ish

Is it time for a mass 'three cheers for cw' yet?  :P

ah but we ALL voted on the rules and setup the GOLRY is everyone's even yours, you missed the vote but you are clearly getting the newly ( 30 seconds ago) created trophy for personality of the Season award.

whatever happens throughout the entire 2013 season I reckon you have already racked up enough votes to win it

Reilly is a defender - Check the Fanplanner.

Also, you cant really base it on 2012 averages...
Duffield, Mundy, Tuck, Zaha, NRoo, Hodge & Cross' averages are all severely affected by sub/injuries...take those out, and it is a different story.

[Nails]

We have emergencies that without sub effected games, average higher than your on field players ;)

Didn't realise there was a team so close to me though :( flower hug. banannanananas

[Colliwobblers]

we will see boys if you finish 1 and 2 on the ladder it wont help either of you make the GF and take the flag if in those rounds we play our finals, and we know they always do - all those stars get rested on you  ;D

maybe a young team finishing 8th will beat you in the finals because their younger players don't need the rest your older stars do.....

we will see, i don't but into the favorites tags just yet, we have not even bounced a ball yet i wouldn't be placing any bets on a premier just yet....

[Nails]

I'd argue 0 stars got rested this year.
It's an old wives tale really.

All my mids are in their 20s and it's generally mids that get rested :o

Adam ant's mids are old as the hill....

WTF How you get Waters? Me want him.

[Maca24]

Adamant has a better team. Just saying  :-X

I'm glad though, will make this year more interesting spectating from outside the 8 :P
