Good news all I need is a backup bobbing up for a goal and getting me 50 odd a week

Ok, at the end of R13 we'll have 4 teams having already doubled up against the bye:
Nealy Good, Baxter Bogans, Lions Limpers, Ripper Dippers

None of those teams will have doubled up.
My thinking is in R14 we'll give the remaining teams a bye, and schedule games between those teams in that round. Then do a six-team finals series in the last three weeks (thinking A-League finals system).

For fairness, I have set up a drawing for the fixture for that round here:

Draw ticket - N° 1855946ZU74T

This will run on Thursday morning (Brisbane time) to give the round 14 fixture.

A-League finals system
EF1: 3rd v 6th
EF2: 4th v 5th
SF1: 1st vs lower-ranked elimination final winner
SF2: 2nd vs higher-ranked elimination final winner
GF: semi-final winners

Note that it's actually impossible to lose to the bye, as I reset its points for to 0 (it counts as a free win and you get your points for), but some of those weaker teams are coming pretty close to managing it. Impressive.

unlikely, fagan seems committed to always playing 2 rucks

Following on from this.... is Ballenden or Skinner your second ruck while Smith is out? Who gets dropped for McStay?

 

[Unknown Identity]

Morning Guys.. Hopefully you touch up the Tiges tomorrow night.

Just wondering what Skinner's job security is like?
Can you see him getting a block of games or is he likely out once Rich and McStay return?

Cheers.

Likely to be either Skinner or Ballanden move out when McStay comes back. We need one of them as the backup ruckman to the Big O

 

[trikster]

Following on from this.... is Ballenden or Skinner your second ruck while Smith is out? Who gets dropped for McStay?

Personally I'd think Ballenden because he has some rucking background whereas Skinner I'm not sure he has done much beyond helping out when had to

 

[Dalions]

The trickster part of that is, when Skinner went into the Ruck late in the game on Friday night, he showed much more aggression than Ballenden had previously in the game.
So, who knows?

My team's steadfast refusal to lift for close games is worrying.

Per discussion in PM, we will have no fixtures in round 15 ahead of the finals (scores will still count for percentages), and then the original 6-team, 3-week finals system in rounds 16-18. The list of finals teams is now confirmed, let the jockeying for positions comme... continue apace!

Narrow wins to the 5th- and 6th-ranked teams over 3rd and 4th have worked out to be a bit of a null op. 3rd and 4th now have a guaranteed win against the bye and will be playing home EFs. It's still possible for 3rd and 4th places to switch, or for 5th and 6th, based on percentage.

No changes in the ladder, but it's fantastic to see perennial fan favourites The Bye finally eek out a win*.


* although it technically still counts as a win for the opposition because I insist on resetting the bye's points for to 0 before calculating the ladder impact








In the semifinals, Funkytown will face the elimination final winner who is the highest on this ladder, while PHammers will face the other.

 

[Jivlain]

For the second time in three weeks, 5th and 6th have beaten 4th and 3rd. And this time it proves fatal.

 

[Jivlain]

Just quietly, looking as though there might be some very interesting results coming up!
