Sounds like mission accomplished then!I did once and the bookmarker cracked the sads as if I was some kind of bully.
Sorry petal, I didn’t mean to hurt your feelings.You may want to refer my original post where i stated IIRC ? .....so b4 you try and point score, get your facts right .....i never stated as fact, and no-one corrected me, so i assumed no change by the AFL
Playing 18 players thru 7 on-field at any time .....just makes a mockery of the concept
We could have an official bookmarked thread, where these posts are copied in... because personally I couldn't be bothered finding them!Has anyone ever referred back to a 'bookmarked' post?
No conspiracy theory, just surprised he wasn’t pickedThey picked 18, only needed 10 ......can't pick every player ...there would be reasons based around their development / workload programs ....there's no conspiracy
So i was in fact correct ......apology acceptedSorry petal, I didn’t mean to hurt your feelings.
I think you can play up to ten players per game but up to 18 across the two (three if you make the finals) games.
I would hardly slam anyone for not knowing the rules of a meaningless competition. In fact it is a sign of the lack of meaning in my life atm that I have actually read something about AFLX. In my defence, it was on the Poort Pear Board and they are really fired up to win three “flags” before March.
Announced 1st Nov 2017 - the day after his previous contract expired:Was Cheney extended? Thought the fabled DMWC was only 1 year extensions.
Rarely ......i do Bookmark posts ....but rarely have i revisited, due to lost interest in the subject of the Bookmarked Post
Pretty much every fringe defender we have has been named - Keath, Otten, Kelly, Doedee, Cheney. They're all fighting for 2 positions. AFLX could be seen as an opportunity to let them fight it out for those last 2 positions in defence.Otten is an interesting selection. I'm not sure what to read into that if anything at all
I wouldn't say there's no relevance, but I certainly wouldn't say that none of these players will play R1. I think the defenders are fighting for 1 position. On the other hand, I would be very, very, surprised to see any of the AFLX midfielders playing in R1.There's simply no relevance between who's named in the AFLX squad ....and the Round 1 side

Matthew Signorello, 37. Paul Hunter, 38. Harry Dear, 39. Tom Doedee, 40. Ben Davis, 42. Alex Keath, 43. Reilly O’Brien, 44. Lachie Murphy, 45.

Patty is coming off a quadI reckon the only thing you can be certain of is that none of the players named are currently managing an injury issue. I'd suggest that anyone who has spent more than 20 minutes in the medical room in the last 2 weeks was not eligible for selection.
No Poholke?
It also confirms that Hampton is nowhere near AFL selection in 2018.
If we make that assumption about Gallucci, then I'd argue that there are no midfielders named in the AFLX squad with the potential to play in R1.7. Jordan Gallucci, 8. Jake Kelly, 17.

Assuming Gallucci's role is as a forward ......so really the only mid potential for Rnd 1 is Hampton......and i'm not going to start that discussion again![]()
Of course you'd come to that conclusionIf we make that assumption about Gallucci, then I'd argue that there are no midfielders named in the AFLX squad with the potential to play in R1.![]()
Mmmm .....apparently Fyfe is in a lot of trouble then ?T
We've only named 3 players with 50+ AFL games - Otten (98), Cheney (77), and Hampton (60). We already know that Cheney is on a dead man walking contract. I'm betting that at least 2 of those 3 players will be gone at the end of the year. If you've played 50+ AFL games, and you've been named in an AFLX team, you know that your career is in deep, deep, trouble.
Fremantle probably have something to prove. It's probably their only chance to get their hands on some silverware, given that the club's trophy cabinet is completely empty. Adelaide has bigger fish to fry, which is why we're treating AFLX as a joke and naming our worst possible team.Mmmm .....apparently Fyfe is in a lot of trouble then ?
That's a long long bow to draw ......IMO again about fitness and getting Fyfe in the AFL groove for season properFremantle probably have something to prove.

Possibly. I have no idea whether or not he's had a full pre-season. Maybe he needs a rund. I really haven't been following their injury situation, particularly since the 2017 season finished.That's a long long bow to draw ......IMO again about fitness and getting Fyfe in the AFL groove for season proper
