    Yeah, decent offer, but I'm the best stocked team in the league for RB so loosing my starting TE for another backup RB doesn't make much sense.

    I think someone else in the league can vote against it, or a LM can block it.
    Even if we were to trade back, it'd have to wait till after this week and I'd be left fielding an incomplete lineup.

    We had this issue in the Premier, one of those players involved in the trade is playing tonight so he will already have played by time the trade is processed. The system will automatically process it after this weeks games. If it doesnt get enough reject votes you can trade back early next week and no effect will be on peoples games this week or next

    Its showing as going ahead on Sunday morning, so that will be before Olsen plays and I'll be short a W/T this week...

    Ah FFS, that was me in the premier too. Didn't even cop on that the trade wouldn't go through this week when I was offering it. You should be ahright then Bizzy, it didn't go through in the other league until after the games.

    EDIT - Well for this week anyway.

    Anyone interested in trading for Langford and Russel Wilson? I need a top QB.

    Chris Ivory is available too if you can make a good enough offer.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,012 ✭✭✭BizzyC


    Shot myself in the foot this week, benched Martin for Hill and lost by a few....I think I'm losing my edge.

    Can one of the GM's reverse that trade now that it's complete?

    If we try to do a re-trade back then Raoul will be left waiting another week to have those players available to trade.

    That would be great! :)

    Ok, can the two people involved just confirm their team names, and the players that need to be moved, and also confirm that you are both happy with the de-trade. I can do that this week if so.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,954 ✭✭✭Raoul


    Dundalk Oriels, it was Langford and Wilson for Olsen and Taylor.

    Bit annoyed that someone didn't even try to put out a full team against one of my rivals. Still a game ahead though in my division.

    Can we mark that down for next year? It was show me them TDs (I think).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,012 ✭✭✭BizzyC


    I had several bye week players with replacements on the bench against me this week as well.

    Just had a look there and that team has been inactive all season. You can see team owners activity under the Owners tab.

    Too bad nobody said anything earlier in the season. Could have gotten someone to take over. Decent enough team.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,747 ✭✭✭fisgon


    I actually had to warn the Vinegar Strokes earlier in the season about not having a starting lineup out. He played along for a few weeks but has now given up again, so he is out next year. Also, Show me them TDs has been inactive for most of the season, and so I would boot him out too.

    What I can do is take over setting the lineups of those two teams if people are in agreement, until the end of the season. I imagine that people who are playing them may not be happy, but I do think that that is the fairest approach here.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,019 ✭✭✭Hulk Hands


    Sorry ive missed mine for a couple of weeks (flukely enough, I won both weeks). I kinda lost track of it a bit after leveon bell went down. I'll make sure to set a lineup for the rest of the year


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 41,980 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    I don't think it's fair to start setting lineups for those teams this late in the season as it gives a huge advantage to teams that have already played them.

    Let's just kick them out at the end of the season.

    I agree with this.

    I noticed a trade is up there and I have to say it's one I don't particularly like due to players on IR being involved in the trade.

    I think we have to make some sort of rule up about trades like this one.

    I think that both teams should have to keep both those players at the end of the season.

    TBH I don't think anybody should be allowed trade players that are on IR.

    Why Not? It's a Keeper league.
    Not my trade but I don't see an issue with it, IR or no IR.

    That is me involved in the trade. Why do you not think it is ok? I am putting all my eggs in my basket for this season. Like...would you have a problem if I traded a pick?

    I will go with the majority. If people disagree with EE and Raoul they can post here. If not, we will just leave it for this year.

    In any case, we should talk about at what stage exactly a commissioner should step in and start setting lineups, if at all, for the future.

    Don't see any problem with this trade, especially in a keeper league. IR or not should make no difference IMO.

    It can make a huge difference this season. A player is gaining a huge advantage getting fit players and it certainly affects how both teams will perform in the league.

    It can have a huge affect on how a division works out. Let's just say that Player A plays the team who has two IR's last week and then plays the team who has two IR's a week later. Now let's say player B who is in the same division as player A plays them the opposite way around.

    This could have a huge affect on a division. It can adversely affect teams who are not involved in the trade in an unfair way imo.

    I think there should be a rule about trading IR's. I don't think it should allowed mid-season.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,012 ✭✭✭BizzyC


    I think it's ok for a keeper league, assuming the players in question are/were keepers, obviouslly would be against it if it was a trade for an IR 3rd string WR....

    In this instance you have a player at 2-9, season is done, trading for 2 1st round pick players for next year in exchange for 1 first round pick for this year.

    Well if you think it's fine then you have to expect the person giving away two keepers to keep the players he traded for?

    I'd expect him to keep 1 of them, but that's up to them.

    It's a trade that makes sense for both teams, one has aspirations this season, the other is looking at next season.

    I wasn't really trading for Tevin Coleman. Just that I needed to trade two players for two players. And to be honest, I don't know if I would have kept Lynch for next year. So for me it was just one keeper for one keeper. Delighted to get Gronk and much happier to have him as a keeper than Lynch but would still love to have had Nelson after holding onto him for the whole season.

    I managed to sneak into a playoff place thanks to a Week 13 win, I had the second-worst score of the Week but luckily I was up against the worst-scoring team. Up against Westbest now in the Wildcard round.

    I somehow got a bye with only 8 wins. I am not hopeful of my chances in the playoffs.
