Competitions New Freo BG Discussion Thread

[Deathly]

I'm not sure if anyone got their new membership packages today for 2018 but there's some really nice new professional shots of some of the players. I wouldn't mind scanning the prints and trying out a design with that. A 2018 / Current focused theme alongside my other new idea.

Can we please have a PurpleGreenRed background.

Thanks

We need a banner with Chris Groom, Tony Delaney and Todd Ridley.

And then we can make West Coast a banner with Tom Lamb on it.

What does BG refer to?

What does BG refer to?

Baby Gangster - ie all our young players with game.

Or perhaps background

Have you begun thinking about a shortlist Deathly ?

No hurry though or anything, especially with everyone geared up for the trade period

 

[Deathly]

What I'll do is I'll start working on the concept / template sometime this week. The players can be easily interchangeable on each side. I'll think of a list of 10 players for each side for people to pick from.

 

[PurpleGreenRed]

Can we have just a black silhouette for one of those players....

So we can drop Hogan straight in after trade period (this year or next?)

 

[Van_Dyke]

Deathly after today I think we need Lloyd in there somewhere

 

[Nickos66]

The Lloyd 'awkward poker face'.

 

[Righteo]

can we decide on this soon? if someone does up a quick (and sensible) shortlist I'll whip up a poll and get the ball rolling

Given a max of 22 options in a BF poll and a maximum of two votes per user, I suggest we probably do this in three parts - pick two of 22 present day players, then pick 2 of 22 past players, then 2 from the top 22 'lucky losers' from either group (and/or AFLW).

Poll buckets probably look something like:

Current players:
Hayden Ballantyne, Harley Bennell, Connor Blakely, Hayden Crozier, Sean 'shhh' Darcy, Nathan Fyfe, Brad Hill, Stephen Hill, Ethan Hughes, Michael Johnson, Ed Langdon, Griffin Logue, Cam McCarthy, David Mundy, Lachie Neale, Alex Pearce, Luke Ryan, Aaron Sandilands, Matthew Taberner, Darcy Tucker, Michael Walters, Lachie Weller

Past players (some great names missing from this):
Ben Allan, Michael Barlow, Peter Bell, Heath Black, Kepler Bradley, Matthew Carr, Troy Cook, Ryan Crowley, Paul Duffield, Jeff Farmer, Antoni Grover, Paul Haselby, Roger Hayden, Dale Kickett, Justin Longmuir, Peter Mann, Shaun McManus, Luke McPharlin, Paul Medhurst, Shane Parker, Matthew Pavlich, Clive Waterhouse

[edit: actually there's no limitation beyond two votes, so could do six votes in each bucket and figure it out from there. Not sure how you integrate AFLW without a third round though, unless Dana gets a spot by default as Doigette winner.]

Here's a starting point. Whittle away as you see fit.
