Just came to this. Simple and brilliant. Infact the best idea for DT/Fantasy ever.
Teams field their whole squad of 30 each week.
Only 22 players make up the team's weekly score - as happens currently.
**NO EMERGENCIES** Make it so none are able to be set at all.
Weekly score is made up of teams BEST scoring
6 Defenders
8 Midfielders
2 Rucks
6 Forwards
With the 2 lowest scores in each position counting for nothing. It's that simple.
Main effect:
Late outs and green vests become almost irrelevant as it won't impact a team's score unless they have more than 2 vested or out in 1 position - hardly ever happens. Let's face it, DT is not about vests and late outs and it's something we shouldn't even have to spend time considering! We have no control over it at all so it should NOT impact scoring like it currently does. Too much luck involved the way things are now. How does it make you feel that so many people with crap teams are ranked higher than you simply because of LUCK? Take a look at all of the sub-par teams at the top of the rankings. It's clear that most have had great LUCK avoiding late outs/ green vests and with their bench.
My friends, I've just seen the light and let me tell you we've been playing a bad format this whole time. It should have been this way right from the start.
What i'm proposing takes luck out of the equation completely and your team is scored by its true strength, making the game entirely about SKILL, as it should be.
The quicker Virtual Sports and FanHub adopt my idea the better.
