It would be great if HotGod and Jack have their analysis somewhere and can re-post them.

Thanks again to all the judges for their great efforts.

I'll run it again next off-season with 18 teams.

Sorry, didn't keep it but Andy might have it on one of his backups if that didn't go by the wayside when he tried to delete the spammers that arrived during the process of migrating the old server.

I've been given an extension on my BAS return, hence the procrastination.

Is someone (with a computer clue) in a position to set up a super coach/dream team?

It would be great to see how this pans out.

Cheers

Like a full on league, with finals and stuff?

If so, yeah, if not...yeah.

Too difficult to set up a dream team due to the limitations of salary cap, player positions etc.

If those who were involved wanted to keep tabs on how each team would score each week maybe individually those who want to can just quickly add up their score and post it in. Wouldnt take too long using fanfooty as your resource for scores.

Then maybe at end of each round we have one post to summarise the total scores to date for each team and continue this over the whole season to get a final winner come the end of the season.

I think Supercoach is better for scoring, TBH. At the end of every round I can do a points update, or I can do an actual league.

What do you reckon's better?

Ox,

If you want to plough back through a few pages, there was a bit of interest. i assumed purely on a points per week basis - added up over the season. The critical factor would be injuries, as there's no opportunity to substitute - but that's OK - luck of the draft.

Might be worth seeing what turns up. There may or may not be an easy way to set this up - hence the call to the computer savvy.

Easy on Excel. If Ox doesn't mind, I'll keep track over the season.

Probably whatever's easiest - the League would work everything out for you but probably wouldn't accept teams with only 18 players? Is that right?

You're right, but what I'm talking about isn't an actual league on the Supercoach site - just a private league of sorts which only has 18 players and 10 teams.

And as I mentioned the positional/salary cap issues.

Eth, all yours. I wouldn't have time to do it anyway for everybody - your call if you want to do that. Agreed that supercoach is a better scoring system. I recommend fanfooty like I mentioned earlier, would be the best and easiest way to grab all the scores in my opinion.

If you are thinking of creating like a fixture over the season I dont think there is a need. I just think a total score basis over the whole season would be best - as it would in a way even out for injuries etc over the course of the year. Unlucky if you get some LTI but thats luck of the draw. Would be interesting to see how teams go.

Thanks Ox. I was already going to use Fanfooty, best scores database on the net, IMO.

I'll consider a fixture though. Will see if I can work it out.

I cant see anything working other than a points per player per week (whether it be S-Coach, Dream Team or Fan Footy). Positional stuff and salary cap wasn't part of the draft so shouldn't enter into considerations (IMO - but always happy to penalise the likes of Riewoldt, Swan and anyone else not on my team). The big thing will be injuries which should be fine (for some). Anyway,with luck there's going to be more input so a decent system will evolve if there's interest

Yeah we have a little while to get a good system up and running and agreed upon. It should be kept very simple like you have suggested Roger. No need to complicate it.

Hopefully we get some input from those involved in the coming weeks.

I reckon it'd be more fun playing each other with a ladder and finals etc...

I posted a way we could play each other twice and finish with a final 6 a few pages back but I'm on iPhone and cbf searching for it now.

It'd just be on here, score vs score win / loss and percentage. It'd be easy enough.

I've already got that in. And I'm using your final 6 method.

Thing is, should we do 18 rounds (2 games against each team) or 21 (same as 18 with three extra random games)?

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k
