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.

 

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?

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.

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! 

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..


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.

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.

  • 2 weeks later...

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?

  • Author

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.?

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
