Margin Mania, from rounds 8 to 24, plus GF bonus!

First deadline: 1st May.

The rules are:

- You need to pick one team every week. The team must be different from all previous weeks. You will get their winning margin for the week added to, or their losing margin subtracted from, your running total.

- You must pick a team before the bounce of the first game every week. If you don’t make a pick your team will be the one chosen by random.org. Dont let random.org beat you.

- You can't pick against the same opponent two weeks in a row.

- You can only pick each team once through the competition

- GF bonus - As you have picked 17 teams by the end of round 24, there is only 1 team left over. If that team wins the flag, you get the points from their biggest winning margin for the season added on to your score, which could make all the difference at the end. Previous comps have been won with this strategy (by me!). Of course, you could leave out a low ranking team all together, and try to win without the GF bonus.

- You can play up to 3 jokers through the competition, which will double the margin for that week - a positive or negative margin, it’s doubled! You have to nominate your joker when you send in your pick. Jokers cannot be used for the Grand Final.

- If you dont use all your jokers by the end of the home and away season they are forfeit!

I will post a spreadsheet detailing the scores sometime after the last game of the round and before the first game of the next round.

Comp winner will receive ... something.

I will provide an incredibly useful spreadsheet for tracking your picks so they conform with Dinsdale 's weekly selection rules.

Don't be an idiot and use ink applied to paper like some sort of 16th century apothecary!


Join the modern era with my spreadsheet!

As an act of rebellion against technology and in order to better take my part in the Butler Ian Jihad, I will be acquiring parchment on which to plan my season.

I believe Jy's magnificent performance to win the Polly last night might have inspired a visit to the aints board to let them know his thoughts on Jimmy Webster.

Anyway, IN, hopefully the rules can be made a bit more Byzantine before round 8.

Count me in. Will probably end up picking red hot favs, that choke again like last time.
