    Posting unsubstantiated rumours on this website is strictly forbidden.

    Demonland has made the difficult decision to not permit this platform to be used to discuss & debate the off-field issues relating to the Melbourne Football Club including matters currently being litigated between the Club & former Board members, board elections, the issue of illicit drugs in footy, the culture at the club & the personal issues & allegations against some of our players & officials ...

    We do not take these issues & this decision lightly & of course we believe that these serious matters affecting the club we love & are so passionate about are worthy of discussion & debate & I wish we could provide a place where these matters can be discussed in a civil & respectful manner.

    However these discussions unfortunately invariably devolve into areas that may be defamatory, libelous, spread unsubstantiated rumours & can effect the mental health of those involved. Even discussion & debate of known facts or media reports can lead to finger pointing, blame & personal attacks.

    The repercussion is that these discussions can open this website, it’s owners & it’s users to legal action & may result in this website being forced to shutdown.

    Our moderating team are all volunteers & cannot moderate the forum 24/7 & as a consequence problematic content that contravenes our rules & standards may go unnoticed for some time before it can be removed.

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...

fixture.jpg

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 ?

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 :)

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was

    The Casey Demons have been left languishing near the bottom of the VFL table after suffering a 32-point defeat at the hands of stand alone club Williamstown at Casey Fields on Sunday. The Demons suffered a major setback before the game even started when AFL listed players Ben Brown, Marty Hore and Josh Schache were withdrawn from the selected side. Only Schache was confirmed as an injury replacement, the other two held over as possible injury replacements for Melbourne’s Thursday night fixt
