Well they could start price changes after R1 to kickstart team building
Yeah you would think they’d need to make some adjustments. Maybe price changes every 2 games and less trades (which I’d be all for).
I figure they’ll just make as few changes as possible to the gameplay to get something workable, in preparation for the curveballs they’ll no doubt get.
The closest I can think of is EPL where there are fixture changes as teams get to the pointy end of knock out competitions which cause bye rounds and double game rounds. Some rounds have so few teams playing that we see some really low scores, but then that gets counter balanced with DGWs in the following weeks.
That would be the other mob who probably have a few less cogs in the machine to worry about.
I’m just reminded of how they handled the scores from players who weren’t listed in BBL. From memory they were just allocating pts to random non playing players.
Might be indicative of how difficult it might be for them to make changes outside of what’s been setup from day 1, especially if AFL teams will be plucking players from the state leagues when they’re needing to rest players.
We could see an awful lot of random pt allocating to players who haven’t actually played.
