Could all coaches please join the Hogg Shield 2021 Group. The code for this group is 401342. If we all join the group we can just go to SuperCoach to determine who has the overall Hogg bragging rights.

Done and done.

I'm in, ready to boost some percentages.

auto-fill is your mortal enemy. Just do what I do. Pick a zillion mid priced wankers and hope some of them come good, then spend the rest of the season trading the duds out when they inevitably remind you why they are still priced in the 300s after 100 games of league football. If you get one right, loudly proclaim your expertise to all and sundry as you valiantly scramble into ninth place by copying everyone else's good trade. Can't go wrong!

Hogg Division III Preview 2021

Can't cover this league this season so I have to get my sledges in here while I can.

Zedforce may be the number one ranked team in terms of points in this division but Zed has to change a bad habit that he has gotten into in recent seasons, scoring well but dropping matches. Zed was a force last year in Division III but couldn't make the eight and couldn't quite snaffle a promotion either. Zed will certainly be a team to watch but I strongly suspect that newer sides GETOUTOFTHEWAY and The Wizard's Sleeves may trump them. GETOUT was another side who scored well but got done at times while The Wizard's Sleeves started brilliantly last year only to falter towards the end of the season. If CJ has learnt from the lessons of 2020 he will be a force in this division. All of these sides have strong claims but I believe the premiership favourite is True North. North had a shocking run last year but got it together late. I think the longer season will suit Kel and she can take this flag. Zed and GETOUT will somehow drop matches when scoring well and the Wizard's magic won't last till August. Get on True North for the flag.

Two lower ranked sides who I expect to vault into contention here are Ugly Ducklings and Gilligan's Power Rules. Quite often in the lower leagues it is the keen coaches that can make strong inroads. Steph has recently carded some good summer SuperCoach form in the Big Bash so I expect her to get back into the top eight at least. Golden Fleece has some claims for a spot in the eight as well after an uncharacteristically flat season last year.

It could be quite a battle down the bottom to avoid relegation and sorry redwhiteandblueblooded but I reckon Joe Kendas Mob might be in for a long year. The Killer Wombats have been off their tucker for the past couple of seasons so it will be interesting to see if Tipper can fight back. The Bye is a strong contender for the spoon with Kenda and the Ingle Farm Felons, who were a bit lucky to get the call up, might struggle at this level.

The gloves are off!!!!

I've done some research this year, although I'm usually busy over the weekends so I don't act upon the late changes that others can, hoping to get off to a good start for a change and have success with my rookie selections.

Any reason why I didnt get an invite into this years Div 3? Think I finished 11th or 12th last season...
