Quite odd that the cats and blues game finished on 3300 pretty much at the siren, especially because it was a close finish.
It shouldn't be all that hard to automate things so that this happened every game, based on my understanding of the point scoring. Chuck in a formula for how much each scoring act is worth based on game time remaining and score differential. Have another formula to scale so that the scores equal 3300 (or X% of 3300, with X being how much game time has been played). Only adjustments needed after the game would be for people awarding stats to the wrong person.

Sorry to let you all down but Whitfield wasn't really my captain. Just thought it was peak comedy. Now his 8 will drop out of my score. Neale is my captain.

Sorry, no clearer.
Did they postpone it just so they could confirm there was no link? i.e no testing required.
Was anyone tested to remove the link?
If so how did they get the test so quickly?
Football competitions have access to testing on demand. They pay for that privilege.

The rest you can read up on.

My side of 18 this round is majority rookies.

JKelly, Dusty, Gawn, Devon, Viney, Trac out.

Only 8/18 are keepers for me. No fwd premiums playing.
yeah - I'm screwed due to my emergencies mainly being on Melbourne players with no chance of putting them on players already played. That is a ****ty ruling.

I think CD has had this working pretty well in the last year or so, but maybe this current format isn’t working very well with the algorithm currently in place.

What is everyones thoughts on Average scores for Demons+Dons and take 15-20% off to bring high avg Viney/Gawn down like 20-30 points and Rivers from 62 down to like 48-50
