Best 18

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)?

Play each other twice in my opinion if you want to run with a fixture.

Think that's the way to go, 18 rounds then start our finals.

Did I accidentally type Malceski?? I meant to type Gary Rohan, we can fix that up, right? :)

I've already typed all the formulas for 21 rounds though. Besides, with 18 rounds and 3 week finals, there's 3 weeks missing.

Talking about the formulas, the spreadsheet's nearly done. I'm going to make the captains worth double points too - if you didn't select a captain I chose the player with the best leadership experience - for example, with Deez Nutz I chose Sam Mitchell, because he has been the longest reigning captain out of the 18. (I picked him over Gary Ablett, mind you :))

Nice work eth. Would it be difficult to run both systems. Ie. DA's team v team and an overall points system? My understanding is that both require the same info (points per player)

I'm already running both, the ladder features a 'points for' category - I had to include that to do the percentage.

Will post screenshots when I'm completely finished.

Double post...

Here's a little bit of the fixture. Each of those zeroes redirects to...

90543006.jpg

...this. The weekly scores are added up here in different sheets (R1, R2, R3 etc.) and the formulas shown in the top of the first image grab that and put it in the fixture.

ladderbg.jpg

Finally, the ladder. It says #DIV/0! because there's no scores in yet :P

I should give this to my IT teacher for bonus marks...somewhere.

A lot of effort put in, which is great...

But what is the point?

My understanding is that most teams will miss players accruing points due to injury, & with no emergencies, this will create an imbalance.

The best performed team could get that mantle purely by the luck of having the least injuries, even if it is the "worst" team.

No?

The point is that considering there's no way to actually get these players to compete in a 10 team league, Supercoach s as close as we're going to get.

And injuries are bad luck and will happen to everybody, some worse than others. It happens in the AFL as well.

Anyway, I'm computer savvy, so it didn't take too long. Most of my time was spent on Facebook.

You need luck to win a flag, this is no different.

It's just for a bit of fun and bragging rights. Except if I win, then it was totally serious and proves how awesome I am.

Just a bit of fun KS. Besides, I'm sure e25 will be 100% supportive of it. He may even get bragging rights if his side is any good. ;)

Great job eth38.

DA, is this what you had in mind much earlier in the thread ?

Oh, the season format... Yep pretty much spot on. Should be interesting.

Loving eth38's work.

I'll release the scores at the end of the round.

Okay, just re-doing some stuff that I missed since the last save, and I've got all the scores excluding the game currently in progress.

I can tell you guys two things - it's low scoring (1100 seems to be an average score) and my team's having an absolute shocker. I'm missing Harbrow, Drummond, Pears, Hodge, Gilbee and Byrnes. :wacko:

Where's Baghdad Bob, e25 & Co. with their assumptions that Dean Cox has had it !? One of his best games ever! BOG.

Try some humble pie.

Thought my team could score a bit more than a paltry 1500-odd.

Will have to improve next week....

No Chapman, no Ablett and team-mates taking each other out of the game early in Rance's hit on Waite, things could have gone down a lot differently. And Sherman as a sub for Footscray? Shocking call and can certainly say that was one of the many reasons why the Doggies got flogged today, the old 'Rocket' is certainly not synonymous with 'premiership'.

Eth, love your work, doing a great job. Are there captains in this thing? If so, Dane Swan is my guy.

Thanks mate. I've got Sam Mitchell as your captain solely for the fact he's the most experienced in terms of leadership in your 18.

I'm not going to change it unless your opponents think it's OK for me to change it - you didn't list a captain originally, I'm aware of that :)

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
