Looks good and makes sense to me ... AFL teams don’t go into a game short because too many forwards are out injured.
It is for that reason why I don’t get why if you don’t have an emergency to score for that position they don’t just give you the lowest bench score from the rest of your team. I reckon it would encourage more strategy on our benches.

These are where most of the 2020 listed players were drafted from. It's not 100% as I notice some different interpretations of club names as I go through the lists but it gives you an idea of the dominant clubs. Geelong have a nice go home advantage given it's unique geographical position and the number of players drafted from the area. I always had a little brag that East Fremantle were the best represented from WA but Claremont now have more. :(
The TAC cup looks over represented to me. I'm wondering if the age specific competition makes some of these players look better than they are and it would be interesting to see the strike rate of successful players from age specific competitions compared to those who have played against bigger bodies. I think Dusty played local league football as a 14 or 15 year old. I'm sure the recruiters are already on to this.

Bit of an off-topic thing but can anyone remember the post where someone did an analysis on the history of players backing up their average when they had seasons of 120/130+?

I used to have the page saved as a favourite but think my "link" got lost in the site changeover. @Rowsus shouod be able to steer you in the right direction!

Someone said that CD puts a slight surcharge on the starting price of Brownlow Medalists from the previous season.

Didn't sound right to me but is there any evidence for such?

I had the time problem happen to me a little while ago, you need to adjust the Timezone in your settings.
If on your phone.
1. Tap on your avatar at top of screen
2. A drop down menu will appear. Tap on ‘preferences’.
3. This will open a new screen and the first option is Timezone. Adjust it to your Timezone.
4. Tap on ‘save’ at bottom of page.

I have a similar issue, will be checked in the background by leadership team in due course.

Thanks for this piece of advice...much appreciated.

@blue dreamer please advise if the issue persist and we'll look into it further for you, though I'm quietly confident that what's being suggested by @Diabolical should rectify that issue.

Thanks guys. A few will be suffering the same fate unfortunately. Some changes were made in the background and it seems to have messed around with user settings. Will see if we can nut it out ASAP but in the meantime please follow @Diabolical ’s instructions which are now also in my sig.
