What this website will do for you!
FootyHero® the game is available to registered users of the FootyHero® website. For this season registration is open to all players, league creation will be done by us. You can just register your team and we will create the league, but if you have 10 friends wanting to play you can have us create the league for you.
The website will be kept up to date with all things Australian Rules Football Fantasy. Information relevant to player positions, performances and projections will be given to you whenever you want it. If it is about a player that we haven't updated yet, you can even contact us and we'll send you information about their prospects! Stories about fallen stars drinking water at restaurants will not be things we are interested in - instead we will report to you on whether you should get that star into your team, to win your fantasy game. That's our only focus. And we care about that so much we've given you a game to win at!
Continual Updates
We will keep you up to date with suspensions, injuries, fluctuations in form, new roles, good performances and observations about value. Our advice is geared towards fantasy Australian Rules Football games such as our very own FootyHero® game, we invented it - we know how it works! We will also work towards giving up to date information on those players either about to break through or still finding their feet in the WAustralian Rules Football, SANFL or VFL. Later in the year we'll even discuss the upcoming trade period.
FootyHero® the Game
Take your Fantasy Footy seriously? You ain't seen nothing yet!
We are a complete different game to what you may have played before. Simply put we are the most feature rich, team-based management game in the Fantasy Footy genre. Sure, anyone could say that, but allow us to back it up.....
Here are some of the things we do at FootyHero® that make our game the deepest Fantasy Footy game
- A completely different scoring system that puts its focus on team composition not just the total number of points someone can score (although we do that too)...
- A drafting system which puts the value of the player completely in your hands during a live draft! Although, if you want to pick the squad based on a cap we do that too..
- Interactive trading system which allows you to build your squad from the coaches in your league AND a free agent pool in an unlimited fashion! Of course, if you play it based on a squad game you can make a few changes a week based on value.
- You can play to win it all this year, or build your squad to be a dynasty over a number of years. Players can be kept across seasons!
- If you build a dynasty we keep all your stats, performances, games and player records.
- On game day, you can play your players anywhere you want and you can adjust it during the weekend! Coach the team you want the way you want it.
- A completely immersive newspaper presentation style for you to win the mind game.
- Updates over the course of the weekend, with running totals in all statistics you need to win the game.
Enough?
That is only a small sample of the depth of our game. We firmly believe no one offers you what we can. Play the game your way and customise it to your liking
We play FootyHero® - so we care about a game that is easy to play, easy to look at and gives you what you want - an addictive immersive experience!
We believe we have two unique facets to our game.
The first
Leagues can be set up to enable coaches to keep half their side year to year. We call this a "Keeper League®". Want to make Chris Judd yours for years to come, at FootyHero® you can! And for 2009 the Keeper League® is free! (The standard "re-draft new each season" leagues will ALWAYS be free).
The second
Before each game you have up to 30 players to choose from [Keeper Leagues can have more options]. You put them into groups of 6 defenders, midfielders and forwards plus four other players who form your Interchange. You can name anyone anywhere, want to put your star forward in the back-pocket...you can!
The Second
Team selections are finalised as the round is played and only final when the last game in the round starts. Players are only locked into their position once their Australian Rules Football team has taken the field. Up until then you can swap any selected player with a member of your interchange or make positional switches with other players whose Australian Rules Football team hasn't started yet. This is what coaches do, they make the moves! And it's only the 18 left standing at the end who earn the right to be a FootyHero®!
