Would that mean the team is more engaging?

exactly, it is a conversation, the aim is even participation

Hi we're the Roys. We have a waterhole surrounded by dehydrated horses. Any advice?

Have you tried making them drink?

My comment wasn't aimed at anyone particularly more a concept. The Roy's are imo engaging and not dominating

(Season 32 Numbers HERE)​

​

IN: Braklet (rookie), DragoDelph (rookie), Nool Carpenna (rookie), paraaaa (returning).​

OUT: A Swallow (Warriors), schmuttt (retired), Cold Sober (retired).​

ROOKIES
The Dragons brought in three rookies for Season 33, and whilst Nool Carpenna (0.1 ppw) was only sighted twice all season - they gained two gems in DragoDelph (89.4 ppw) and Braklet (69.5 ppw) who became mainstays in Dragons match threads this season.

GAINS
Former Fury paraaaa (0.3 ppw) joined the Dragons this season, but was not seen in match threads after Round 3.

LOSSES
The big loss for the Dragons in the off-season was Ljp86 Medalist A Swallow (63.3 ppw in S32), who jumped across to the Warriors.

TEAM TRENDS​

• Total MTP: 8,730 10,153, 4th (16%)​
• Sum of weekly median posts: 467 432, 4th (7%)​
• Match thread participants per week: 16.81 14.53, 10th (14%)​
• Total match thread participants: 23 23, 5th (-)​
• Match thread share: 53.56% 49.06%, 7th ()​
• Top 5 participant reliance: 67.88% 75.68%, 12th ()​
• Participants with >5% of MTP: 6 6, 11th (-)​
• Participants with 10+ ppw: 11 11, 7th (-)​
• Participants with 40+ ppw: 5 6, 3rd ()​
• Weeks with 300+ MTP: 16 14, 4th ()​

THE CORE
The Dragons seems to lose a lot of squad depth this season, despite their new players more than covering their losses. Matt_352 (from 23.1 to 0.5 ppw), Stoods (from 28.5 to 1.1 ppw), Deestroy Medalist BringBackTheAnchor (from 5.3 to 0.3 ppw) and VandoHawk (from 3.9 to 0.1 ppw) were all absent from large chunks of the season after being regular contributors in Season 32 - which in turn reduced the number of Dragons in match thread per week from 16.81 to 14.53. However they were able to increase their overall output due to DragoDelph, Braklet and big increases in activity from serial_thrilla (from 103 to 132 ppw), Bonz (from 65.4 to 91.0 ppw), Hatchy1992 (from 9.4 to 15.2 ppw), Chief (from 1.8 to 5.2 ppw) and Ljp86 (from 4.6 to 12.1 ppw), plus stable numbers from T2B_ (from 75.9 to 70.5 ppw), Strigoi (62.4 to 64.8 ppw), Bradesmaen (from 9.6 to 10.1 ppw) and Knifey Spoony (from 18.3 to 10.1 ppw).

This all means that the Dragons are probably the most top-heavy side in the league right now - with 13 players creating 99% of their match thread output, and 86.5% of it from six players. Even so, the activity is there, and a couple of 10 ppw players next season is all that would be needed to balance it out a little. #grandfinalrematch was a massive week for them with 3260 posts which clearly skewed the overall numbers, but even so the Dragons were still ranked 4th in the league for sum of weekly median posts and only dipped below 300 match thread posts on three occasions all season.

GRADE: C​

(Season 32 Numbers HERE)​

​

IN: Pick (Demons), kdavva (Warriors), Toump Ass (Demons), Dominic03 (rookie), James Colorado (rookie), Blackhawk42 (rookie), Sab22 (Wonders), Scythe94 (rookie).​

OUT: Senor M (Bears), Elton Johns Wig (Warriors), Sterge (Roys), Ned_Flanders (Gumbies), MightyHawks86 (delisted), Lynchy04 (delisted), Tiger2709 (delisted).​

ROOKIES
There were four new rookies at the Furies in Season 33, and they ended up with a 50% strike rate. Dominic03 (57.4 ppw) and James Colorado (25.9 ppw) have both been mentioned in EKA discussions this season, whereas Blackhawk42 (0.5 ppw) and Scythe94 (1.6 ppm) both lost interest after three to four weeks.

GAINS
During the off-season the Furies were able to lure kdavva (53.5 ppw) and Pick (125 ppw) away from the Warriors and Demons respectively, and both managed to integrate themselves in the club's leadership group throughout the season. Toump Ass (9.6 ppw) was also serviceable since coming across, and Sab22 (5.8 ppw) was a handy delisted free agency pick up until he once more got bored with the league.

LOSSES
It was a big cleanout by the Furies last off-season, and along with a swarth of inactives they also lost plenty of experience with Senor M (56.7 ppw in S32), Sterge (2.3 ppw in S32), Elton Johns Wig (79.6 ppw in S32) and Ned_Flanders (24.1 ppw in S32) all finding new homes; the latter two in one season deals prior to the Old Boys launch.

TEAM TRENDS​

• Total MTP: 8,614 11,156, 2nd (30%)​
• Sum of weekly median posts: 531 402, 6th (24%)​
• Match thread participants per week: 14.00 13.76, 11th (2%)​
• Total match thread participants: 23 23, 5th (-)​
• Match thread share: 46.43% 47.37%, 9th ()​
• Top 5 participant reliance: 59.44% 63.17%, 8th ()​
• Participants with >5% of MTP: 9 7, 6th ()​
• Participants with 10+ ppw: 11 11, 7th (-)​
• Participants with 40+ ppw: 8 7, 2nd ()​
• Weeks with 300+ MTP: 13 11, 10th ()​

THE CORE
With the loss of so many long-time Furies it was up to the new guard to shoulder the load. Beyond the recruits, there were also big increases in output from CrimsonViolet (from 71.5 to 101 ppw), TJASTA (from 2.1 to 57.6 ppw), Bastyy (from 27.3 to 58.5 ppw) and crazywildhorse (from 18.1 to 22.5 ppw) - whilst U2tigers (from 40.5 to 30.9 ppw) and ImissFrosty (from 90.8 to 72.1 ppw) remained significant contributors. However there was a big drop off from Rioli8217 (from 59.3 to 5.1 ppw) and Tigerturbulance (from 52.9 to 25.3 ppw) - the latter especially once the expansion bid was approved in Round 11.

The Furies indeed have some of the same problems as the Dragons in that they have a very active core group of twelve posters who contribute 97.5% of their match thread posts, and then fleeting cameos from the rest of the squad. They are a little less consistent across the season though, and failed to reach 300 match thread posts in any of the final six rounds of the season. Losing the duo of Turbo and Crimson next season will hurt them significantly, so nailing the recruitment season and rookie indoctrination will be critical. Never the less, they certainly have the ability to go large when inspired: 3915 posts in a single game week will attest to that.

Toump Ass (9.6 ppw) was serviceable​

This is the nicest thing anyone has ever said about me.

Thanks Thrilla!!!! <3

 

[Headless]

Expansion being approved certainly seems to have had an impact.

Good point Headless. The Koala bid has now been declined.

Sorry mate. You need to delist a few more players. Start with Bastyy and we'll see what that does.

the absence of Rioli8217 is surely enough for an F alone.
