I am wondering if the weighting of when players scored their points or the scaling due to one team winning hasn't changed a bit either. TBH, I think the player most hard-done-by is Pendles. 24 Contested Possessions at 82.9% efficiency with 10 clearances, 2 goals at fairly crucial times, and only...

What do you think Preuss has to do to stay in the side? He has to survive Mason Wood coming back in 2-3 weeks, but I don't think he's going to be too threatened by Daw listening to the coach's comments. I have to wait until rookie corrections to bring him in because I don't quite have the cash...

So, I've seen a few comments on the scoring seeming to be different from last year and I agree. I think we might want to analyze it a bit more to determine the differences, if there are any at all. If we figure something out we should be ahead of the curve on our trades. I've looked up what...

And that is what happens when you put zero attention into Pendlebury. The midfield stars of the competition are going to score like crazy on the Bulldogs this year. Sidenote: it is very hard not to overreact to one week; I already regret having to watch Pendles score against me for the next few...

Those scores for Goldy in losses average out to 99.7...which is not good at all. I reckon he will struggle to be top 2 this year. However, pretty much all North's losses came late in the year when he was injury affected so it might be a bit incorrect to assume that win and loss record was the...

Team Name: The Seppos Footy Team: Melbourne Demons City/State/Country: Parkersburg, West Virginia, USA This league is a great idea, well done Benj.

None, I thought he was missing the first 8 rounds.

The Seppos are in. Thanks for the invite and good luck to everyone this year!

Oh, I for sure agree with that. But, I think it's smart to play around with your team without these rookies available because it could happen and I want to be comfortable with my structure if it does. I want to avoid scrambling around on the day of lockout (especially since it's at like 4:20am...

Midprice madness may be forced upon us. I still want to go guns and rookies, though. If I use the logic that I have to start all the decent rookies available on ground so that I can have maximum cash generation and point scoring with the guns and rooks approach I keep coming back to Witts, which...

afl.com has both EVW and Hibberd missing out on round 1 selection...that would be such a punch in the guts. Might be forced into something like Marchbank and an extra premium back there.

Correct me if I'm wrong, because this is important, but once Round 1 lockout hits on the 23rd don't we only have 2 trades that can be used during the round (with the team we had selected going into the Thursday night game locked in)?

Nope, but the cash generation has to come from somewhere. I'm willing to put SPP and Barrett on the field as of right now, but if anybody goes down in my midfield I'll be hurting for points. Maybe Atley (Port) can get selected but I'm not too confident.

Wigg not getting selected almost guarantees Pickett sits at M11 for me. It's getting to the point I might have Hibberd M9, Miles M10, and Pickett M11.

EVW and Hibberd are a worry especially only knowing the extended bench by lockout. If you pick both in your backline, and they miss you could be in trouble. Maybe the right spot for Hibberd is the midfield bench so as to spread out the risk. We really need Newman to stand up tomorrow and force...

That's a tough one, and I'm currently making the same decision (although it's more of a pick 2 out of 3 between Knight, Taranto, and McCarthy). Currently I have Knight and Taranto. I think Taranto is going to score more consistently than McCarthy, which is fairly important since he's on field. I...

It's going to be tough to know whether or not they're a mirage since a few of them will probably be named on extended benches when RD1 lockout happens...EVW, Hibberd, Otten, and to a lesser extent Luke Ryan and Zach Guthrie (and for the middle probably Wigg as well).

My problem with Titch isn't his fantasy game (he clearly has the potential to go over 110 for a season); it is with the Hawthorn system. I don't think they've had a midfielder crack 110 since Sam Mitchell in 2012, although Jordan Lewis came close a couple years ago. I'm just not sure they'll be...

I'm leaning towards a loophole M/F at M11 just in case so you can swing with a Miles or Pickett DPP type at F8 just in case you get in trouble.

Whether or not Pruess is selected will have everything to do with Ben Brown's health. Hopefully he gets up for round 1. If Goldy and Preuss get named together and Sandi isn't fit I'll probably just pick Grundy and deal with it. The other option would be to pick a Nankervis and try to go up to...
