Are you offering to create the comp in 2016 Scarlett? Probably a good idea to do this sooner than later.

Let me know & just post the code for everyone to join.

I'm happy to help out in 2016 , weekly wraps, assist setting scoring etc.

20 th March works for me for draft night.

Auto select draft order, 60 seconds between picks. And reverse snake order on selections.

My suggestion For scoring is:

* Kicks, Handballs, Tackles & Marks all = 3

* Hit Outs = 2

* Points Scored = 4

* Scoring Accuracy = 2

* Free Differential = 1

Total of 21........

Thoughts Lads?

im happy with that but i've always hated scoring accuracy and putting it to 2 points i think might be a bit heavy on the scoring.

I'd be interested in putting it to 1 and also adding another category. I'll make the league now and then we can discuss it before the draft.

[scarlett 247]

these are the other categories

D	Disposals	Available via Stats PLUS
ED	Effective Disposals	Available via Stats PLUS
IED	Ineffective Disposals	Available via Stats PLUS
CP	Contested Possessions	Available via Stats PLUS
R50	Rebound 50s	Available via Stats PLUS
CL	Clearances	Available via Stats PLUS
SP	Spoils

[Old Man Rivers 326]

Good stuff Scarlett.

Both Contested possesions & Clearances sound like interesting additions. Puts a new spin on the ball magnet type player. I'd be up for adding both @ 1 point value.

Maybe then pump up Hit Outs to 3 to keep the odd number. That would really bring the elite hit out ruckman back into play?

[scarlett 247]

as i suggested earlier i really like the spoils, gives the backmen something more rather then just going outside running defenders. i wont add anything until we get a general consensus from everyone involved. i sent a message out to everyone involved with an invite (I think, if you didnt get one just send me a message and i'll send it).

What are you talking about JCB?

Fixing up a flawed scoring system in 2015 will make 2016 a better and more even contest for everyone. We are suggesting nothing more than Hit Outs are worth more than 1 point to bring elite ruckman back into play & handballs are worth the same as kicks.

Thats pretty much it?

Wheres the difficult bit?

You can do this Ol Fella?

Stay tuned we are going to have a ripping 2016 season?

I'm in.

Thanks Scarlett.

I also hate scoring accuracy.

I mean if your team kicks 20 goals 21 to 10 goals 1, to lose that point seems silly to me.

[Old Man Rivers 326]

Lads with all the dislike of the "scoring accuracy" surfacing how about we park that entire category in 2016.

That way we can add , Spoils & clearances or contested possesions!! This will give a total fresh feel to the Comp this season?

I like spoils, I like the idea of making the game as even as possible as often it is heavily midfield based. 

Adding contested and clearances will further increase this, that's said il go with the majority! 

[jayceebee31 761]

I strongly believe we should leave the scoring as Matt has proposed...to many variables as is...with possibly only 14 teams, this will be enough change.

however, what are we doing re keepers....having two from last year as we agreed last year?

this is the issue we need to sort out....not the scoring...that's been solved by our Manager..

[Old Man Rivers 326]

JCB

We can't have keepers in 2016

There is to much churn with teams dropping out & new ones arriving. Matt asked for in put into the scoring so players are just putting there views forward. Things won't change to much & all will be good.

[poita 3,902]

Some good suggestions here folks.

Re scoring, I don't like accuracy either, and it would be good to have hit outs worth more than last year. Other than that I am not really fussed, although would prefer games to be decided on the main stats.

Happy to drop to 14 teams, certainly better than 16.

[Old Man Rivers 326]

Hey Scarlett

So how are the numbers looking.

Do we have a full comp yet?

[Old Man Rivers 326]

OK..... Currently only 9 teams listed in comp.  It's hard to identify who is who from your list. There is 10 teams listed, I think Mad MELBOURNE might be the missing team? Lads if possible can you change your team names to match your Demonland Name until we have a full comp, 14 Teams.

looks like there is no other returning teams from 2015.

So we now need to recruit 4 fresh teams. Scarlett does the above sound about right before we open this comp up?

[scarlett 247]

sorry i've been living away with work, so far 9 teams. good idea with the names, until we have a full team. I'm about to upgrade the comp so we can have all the extra options, also has an option for extra managers, I'd be interested in giving someone else access while I'm doing living away work, will be away for another 2 weeks.

Hey Matt

No problem, I will keep an eye on things. I like your suggested categories. I have  listed my thoughts on category value.

OK sweet. Sorry mate I was thinking "Scarlett" for you. 

So that's you 2 off the list.

I will follow up the others.

If not returning we can open comp up next week.

We will cap at 14. That should make for an awesome draft.?
