Well Bell ain’t showing up this week!

Jasondeans86er · 06-09-2018 9:13am

is anyone else not getting notifications of trade proposals on their phone?

Jasondeans86er · 06-09-2018 11:20am

yeah I amn't getting notifications on my phone re trades.... anyone else having this problem?

GK1001 · 06-09-2018 1:49pm

my crappy windows phone doesn't have the app so I have to check in online

Jasondeans86er · 06-09-2018 3:12pm

Seems to be working now! approved that trade anyway.... nice deal if they work out!

Jasondeans86er · 08-09-2018 10:17am

When do you think Bell will show? Connor is looking like a steel of a pick up mid week!

Haha tooting your own horn already Jason, this will DEFINITELY end well

Apparently there's torrential rain for the game so will be interesting to see what happens. No idea on Bell, I own him in a few places so I'm hoping sooner rather than later!

Jasondeans86er · 08-09-2018 10:59am

Haha it was more a 'oh look at the shiney new object I have.... want it?' kinda deal Ugh torrential rain! that's not good for the 4 players I seem to have in that game across leagues!

So Conner, eh?

Jasondeans86er · 10-09-2018 12:36pm

Ironically going to lose this week even with him getting almost 30 points

GK1001 · 10-09-2018 1:40pm

Yeah I had d'Angelo Williams the last time Bell sat out the start of the season and he destroyed in those first few weeks. Nice pickup.

Some games still in the balance with MNF to come. I'd say 3 are done barring huge shock and the other 3 are still live. 2 in particular are close.

It was so nice to sit down on the Sunday evening again and just watch Redzone. Missed most of the first set of matches but some big surprise performers there in Week 1.

...And the Dolphins won :-)

Jasondeans86er · 10-09-2018 2:29pm

WHAT WERE THE SAINTS DOING! at one point they had -9 points on defence.... instantly regretted setting the scoring to Espn settings....

Ballinock Sean, I've sent you over a trade there

GK1001 · 12-09-2018 12:14am

Not much on the waivers to be excited about this week. Normally there's at least 1 must have after week 1

Jasondeans86er · 12-09-2018 8:59am

I thought phil lindsey was worth an add, he was very impressive in that cohen roll the other night.

there's still some bench players there that if they follow up with a good week 2 will be hot property next week...as ever though it's do you take the chance

how did your other leagues go Jason?

Jasondeans86er · 12-09-2018 11:06am

GOT DESTROYED! well no... got annihilated by 80 points in the dynasty.... honestly how did nuk only get 9 points! I lost by 0.2 in my auction league.... which sucked as I was the highest scoring loser... Ie if I had played anyone else I would have won but that's fantasy. How did you do?

GK1001 · 12-09-2018 11:24am

I won the opener. Had Brees and then everyone else chipped in with a min of 10 so put up a good score. Not a whole lot of crossover in my two teams starters, a bit on the bench though.

Lots of attempts at wheeling and dealing today so the league is off to a good start. Hopefully that continues. Makes it a bit more craic.

Looking forward to when the first big trade goes tits up with a injury the week after. PLenty of slagging ensues. Just hope I'm not the recipient!

Jasondeans86er · 12-09-2018 11:31am

haha I haven't got a single offer in any league so far! I am expecting the vultures in my Dynasty as I have cooper and a few other players that did F all! No idea what to do with Connor in this league though! he is an rb1/2 when Bell is out but how long! I had pretty much to play against all the good players this week... Hill in one league 50 + points.... mixon, connor and julio in another for 80 or so points in another! and I think Kamara in this one!

Jasondeans86er · 13-09-2018 9:42am

Quiet on the old trade front so far! Everyone seems a bit cagey.... unable to figure out how much a player is worth etc... I know I have prob sent out a few offers that will be scoffed at!

:P

Unless a trade offer blows me away I prefer to let my team settle a little for a few weeks, you can't really get a feel for things until about week 3 I find.

LuckyLloyd · 13-09-2018 11:31am

I've sent out a few offers that have been rejected without counter.

Jasondeans86er · 13-09-2018 11:33am

Yeah I do like a counter offer.... I know I didn't reply with one I got yesterday and apologies, I went to and then I hit the wrong button (least it wasn't accept) and then I got distracted and left it haha! so whomever went after Connor yesterday apologies! ... it was actually you Lloyd sorry!

baby and crumble · 13-09-2018 2:51pm

I don't really see the point in sending a counter offer if I'm not interested in a trade for the player offered though. Plus I can't see a way in the app to even send a comment. I only see the comment sent with the offer when i check my emails.

GK1001 · 13-09-2018 3:04pm

Be useful if everyone could update their trading block so we can see who on peoples teams they are willing to discuss/entertain trades on.

The first couple of weeks are always cagey enough affairs as you try work out teams depth charts.

Jasondeans86er · 13-09-2018 3:26pm

doesn't have to be for the original pieces.... say I offer a trade for drew brees, for duke johnson but you don't want it but you want my landry.... so you counter with Landry for crowell etc. won't happen all the time, sometimes you just don't like a team but no harm in trying for a player... might go back and forth a few times before the final trade is made.

Absolutely, if you’re not interested in that deal AND aren’t interested in any other type of deal with that owner rejecting straight out makes total sense.

I suppose where people have players listed for trade I’d expect a counter in some circumstances. No sweat though!

GK1001 · 14-09-2018 2:06pm

Pixies flying again this week! AJ with a stormer. Dalton must've remembered he's actually quite good. I had him last year in my team and it was very frustrating watching Dalton not throw him the ball. His 2nd touchdown was all him...quality

Jasondeans86er · 14-09-2018 3:31pm

Ugh thursday night wr’s are killing me!

Yeah, great 1st quarter from them! Had a feeling they would be good this year with Mixon and Ross (although he hasn't produced anything yet). Worrying 2nd and 3rd quarters once the Ravens figured out that they should cover AJ!

Jasondeans86er · 17-09-2018 11:53am

Kickers are just killing my soul this year!

LuckyLloyd · 01-10-2018 10:47am

Well I wouldn't have expected my first loss of the season to come on a week where I put up 140 points but could only be impressed with The Orange Organics and their 165 points!!

Big scores this week, including a stonking 175 point effort!

baby and crumble · 01-10-2018 10:53am

Against me.

Normally my 114 would be a respectable effort, not this week, eh?

Jasondeans86er · 01-10-2018 2:55pm

I have never had a team of such talent stink so much! (yes I know I left points on the bench) 0-4 was not the start I was expecting!

GK1001 · 01-10-2018 3:33pm

Someone's 0 has got to go in my game...so long as there's not a shootout in the Kansas Denver game I'll be safe

1-3 in my other league and Eli Manning is killing me (OBJ) with his retarded play...he has to be the worst QB in the league, and he must have something over the GM in NY to stay in that team

GK1001 · 16-10-2018 12:45pm

EEked out the skinniest of wins there! I just assumed I lost when I looked at the highlights of that Packers game this morning. Totally jammed that one.

Jasondeans86er · 16-10-2018 1:28pm

Finally getting on a roll win wise and I have entered bye week hell! Done with that cooper fella at least! Sold/ cut all my shares so he will likely go off in two weeks! Managed to get a very nice haul for him in dynasty though

LuckyLloyd · 19-10-2018 3:42pm

I think with Amari Cooper you either have to play him each week as your flex option or get rid entirely. Trying to predict his usable weeks will enrage!

Jasondeans86er · 21-10-2018 7:32pm

Yeah I was just fed up of dealing with him! Gota very nice pay out though in the trade... especially with the hyde trade happening

Jasondeans86er · 25-10-2018 1:10pm

Yeah guys im not sure on the last proposed trade... I am open to advice and will think on it....

In what way? The Olsen trade?

I'm not involved in the trade. And I don't think anyone is sad enough to 'collude' in a free league, ergo no veto should even be considered, whether you like the trade or not

LuckyLloyd · 26-10-2018 10:31am

I think Olsen is clearly the stronger side of the trade. But it is a TE for a TE+. People should be entitled to form their own opinions on the value of players and the needs of their rosters within reason. I don't think this trade is indicative of collusion or is so fundamentally imbalanced that it threatens the integrity of the league. So I wouldn't be looking to veto it.

Fair play to the Claymakers for looking to get involved and improve their roster, and not giving up.

LuckyLloyd · 13-11-2018 11:25am

Well 137 points wasn't enough to get the win this week and I'm running on fumes to make the playoffs now. Need to win out and hope for an increasingly unlikely combo of results elsewhere!

Jasondeans86er · 13-11-2018 12:03pm

need to run the gauntlet myself but so far so good! Long as Bell doesn't show in the next 3 hours that is!

Jasondeans86er · 27-11-2018 1:45pm

Cheers for taking part this season to all! A few results to go before we have all our playoff spots been a competitive league!

GK1001 · 27-11-2018 1:56pm

Thanks for organising Jason...very interesting last week ahead
You could do me a favour this week too

Some score you've got there too...just been unlucky with the matchups...playoffs though

I'm getting battered in my other league

Jasondeans86er · 27-11-2018 2:11pm

I'm win and in, in 2 leagues..... seriously started 0-4 in all my leagues currently in the playoffs in all of them but we will see! Yeah there is an argument for highest scoring team not in the playoffs getting the last playoff spot going around and If I don't make the playoffs I may be looking for a league with that setting next year haha!

Jasondeans86er · 03-12-2018 11:50am

By the looks of it myself and Aiden got in to the playoffs by the skin of our teeth! I thought I was done going to bed and considering the Hunt crap finished me off in my Dynasty and vikes shat the bed! I was feeling pretty blue!

GK1001 · 03-12-2018 1:28pm

And you did me that favour

The divisions ended up being quite different. Looks like 7-6 will win it for Aidan and get the bye. Then it will ptentially go down to pts on the last playoff spot between Keith and Sean...though looks very likely to be Keith going into tonights game
