TooSerious
For those who take it way too seriously
STATS ARE UP! LET THE SERVER HAMMERING COMMENCE!
Your captain knocks up a 142, your other team doesn't crumble in the second half and salutes by two points and you don't need to ask yourself 'What to do with Ablett' due to not owning him.
Sometime this footy caper can give up some good weeks.
(Unless of course, you had Ablett as captain and support the Hawks, then you get my sympathies)
As the final game rolls to a close, let us know how you've gone! Bench Goodes for Oxley? Get on in time to ditch Cripps? Enjoyed a blinder from Martin after last weeks debacle? Let us know!

Wagga Wagga 1231 d Birdsville 1180
Best: Treloar 157 (Birdsville), Shiel 136 (Wagga).
The Skinny: Wagga start with a win despite only three 100+ scores. Birdsville see Treloar and Ebert go big, but too many others go small.
Gariwerd 1467 d Lovely Banks 1075
Best: Walker 177 (Gariwerd), Rampe 98 (Lovely Banks)
The Skinny: Taylor Walker puts the frighteners into every ORFFA coach. Gariwerd on top. Lovely Banks seeing the future - Heeney, Saad, Rampe, Langdon, et al - and it looks bright.
Foul Bay 1352 d Nunawading 998
Best: Dangerman 123 (Foul Bay), JPK 127 (Nunawading)
The Skinny: Foul Bay enjoy a consistent effort to take out their first win. Nunawading cursed by early injuries to Myers and Thomas, however Nic Nat's debut put a smile on the face of coach Melbandy.
Waikikamoocow 1237 d Marble Bar 1200
Best: McGovern 145 (Waikik), Rich 126 (Marble Bar)
The Skinny: Tight tussle, with debutant McGovern making a big difference for the Waikiks. The Misfits rack up 1200 and look to be on the up and up with their young lineup.
Venus Bay 1346 d Cradle Mountain 1265
Best: Docherty 145 (Venus Bay) Stevie J 131 (Cradle Mountain)
The Skinny: The offseason recruiting looks to have put the Vultures in a good spot. Depth and talent. Cradle Mountain unlucky to lose despite scoring 1250+. Plenty to like.
Darraweit Guim 1226 d Gundagai 986
Best: Betts 154 (Darraweit), Adams 98 (Gundagai)
The Skinny: Betts and the Richmond connection do enough to see Darraweit home. Rockliff's injury to hurt Gundagai, but good signs from reserves Honeychurch and McCarthy.
Mt Beauty 1193 d Larrikin Lagoon 1143
Best: Sidebottom 136 (Mt Beauty) Lewis 154 (Larrikin Lagoon)
The Skinny: Mt Beauty scrape home despite down games from a few stars. Midfield depth to be tested with Sidebum out. The Lagoon may rue Monfries' vesting. Gibson has a solid debut at new club.
Iron Knob 1289 d Powlett Plains 1232
Best: Gray...
Best: Treloar 157 (Birdsville), Shiel 136 (Wagga).

No, this is not where an ORFFL coach posts their team selection - although you can post it here if you so wish. No this is a post about one of the five O's of ORFFL; Orchestrating Proper Team Selection.
Now for many coaches team selection is just a case of finding the only fit players you have available on a line, chucking them on the field and hoping that they somehow manage to have the game of their life (looking at you Marco Paperone). For others it can be a question of how can I not play Kurt Tippett when Scott Thompson is sure to be a late inclusion?
Yet for others still, this time of week can lead to an either/or selection dilemma usually over who to play at D or F4. You have a number of players who could fill that role, and yet none of them fill you with supreme confidence in their ability to put points on the park (or confidence that they'll score more than your other options).
HORNSY'S MOST WATCHABLE GAME OF THE ROUND BESIDES YOUR OWN
<img alt='' style='width: 600px; height: 219px;' src='/Portals/0/Users/215/23/4823/MALvsMBD.jpg[/img]
Let's look at this week's GOTR as an example. Anyone who's been paying attention to the machinations and spreadsheets of the last few years know that walesy's MBD have a shit-hot FWD line, and perhaps even a hotter poo midfield. Plenty of points, plenty of players. So who makes the team week to week?
Even with Rockliff and Sidebottom out for an extended period Mount Buggery have a plethora of options to choose from. Roughhead is obviously an automatic selection, Elliott is fast becoming likewise, while Bonts is a player everyone would like to have on their list in perpetuity. So at nominally F4 walesy had opted for the returning Mitch Clark playing at Geelong's fortress Kat Park.
I'm taking an educated guess that Clark get the nod over Cloke and Cameron due to both his preseason form and Geelong's well-earned and...

The casulties are rolling in already. Deledio, Rockliff, Sidebottom, Bartle and maybe even Bellchambers (McKernan was upgraded for a reason...)
It's getting ugly early this year! Lets hope this week is a better one.

Welcome back to everyone for the new SC season, hopefully so far it's treating you all better than it is me.
Due to the Monday game and issues with the stats many will have noticed the Best Buys are a bit late this week, and to go with that they're a bit rushed and therefore have a bit less in depth analysis and a bit more opinion. There is no single Best Buy, as this early in the year trades are definitely best saved, however for those really keen for a correction or holding Rocky the Best Buys are still here to offer some options for you. This year there has also been a slight change to the format, with percentage of teams a player is now in listed as opposed to the straight number.
DEFENSE
ROOKIES
[span style='background: #ffffff;]KamdynMcintosh (RIC) DEF 123.9k 120 40.7%
McIntosh was the saviour for many teams' abysmal defensive scores last week, knocking up 120 in his debut game for the coaches who played him on field. Already in 40.7% of sides he's one of the more popular rookies and for good reason.
Adam Saad (GCS) D/M 102.4k 89 62.4%
Saad showed why he's in over 60% of teams in his first regular game in the AFL, scoring a very nice 89 in a shock loss to the Dees. Costing just over 100 grand and set to play plenty of games, if you don't have him already get on at first opportunity.
MID-PRICERS
Sam Docherty (CAR) DEF 412.9k 147 0.6%
Docherty couldn't be left out this week, after scoring a 147 in the season opener. Personally I don't think he'll be able to keep his average over 100 this year but with a start like that anything's possible.
Jeremy McGovern (WCE) D/F 443.2k 145 1.8%
McGovern continued on from his outstanding 2014 by racking up a 145 point score against the bulldogs. With the Eagles injury woes he could well be their main KPD for a while this year but that certainly didn't stop him on the weekend.
Tom McDonald (MEL) DEF 381.1k 125 0.9%...

<p style='margin-bottom: 0cm; background: #fcfcfc;] Round 1 was a week where the usual suspects did not deliver. Instead, the round was led by Taylor Walker (177), Treloar (157), Jordan Lewis (154), Betts (154) and Sam Docherty (147). Ablett was still handy with 119 - but it was only the 30th highest score for the round. Fyfe with 115 and Pendlebury with 113 would be considered a little disappointing whilst Selwood with 69 was just plain bad.

So, turns out, when you lose your weekly rollover script in the offseason, weekly rollovers tend to take longer than expected.
Also means that there is a chance that there's bugs and whatnot. So if you notice anything, let me know!
But yeah, everything should be updated, stats, calcs, ORFF*'s, the works.
A quick note to you ORFFA/U guys- I put in the new script that rolls teams over from round to round, but didn't take it out for you guys. Cause the round turnover is a couple of days away, figured that that wouldn't be too bad. Let me know if you want keep said functionality, or not.
I imagine next week will run smoother as I get back into my groove. Definitely can't go as bad as my team though!

A quick note to you ORFFA/U guys- I put in the new script that rolls teams over from round to round, but didn't take it out for you guys. Cause the round turnover is a couple of days away, figured that that wouldn't be too bad.
Let me know if you want keep said functionality, or not. I imagine next week will run smoother as I get back into my groove. Definitely can't go as bad as my team though!
So JPK, what is this Donor Team you speak of? Well, the donors are a group of TS members who send a little bit of cash in Walesy's direction each year, as a thanks mate&rdquo; for running such a good SC site. You too can do this, simply by going to the donate section of the site. Once you're done, Walesy opens up the donor forum to you, and we all have a little get-together and sing Kumbaya around a campfire. Alright, that last bit might not be true, but the donor forum is, and its where we run the donor team from.
This donor team, well each year the TS donors get together and make a camel that looks like a SC team. Everyone has their chance to influence the team, through initial selections, team set-up (although we will ALWAYS go GnR), and then onto weekly trades, captains, etc. The donor team is a little bit of fun, just to see how good a committee of self-confessed SC addicts can actually be. The goal of the team is to be number 1, which is why Walesy stays well away from any selection-type stuff (he may be good at running a SC site, but he isn't a very super coach!)
So yes, while we were all madly putting together our own teams for the SC season, the donors were off in the background, putting together a camel of a team, and this is what it looks like (plus the round 1 scores, to save space):
Defence:
J Gibson 108
H Shaw 85
J Newnes 69
K Kolodjashnij 47
K McIntosh 120
A Oxley 31
Bench - A Saad 89 and N Brown 53
Midfield:
S Pendlebury 113
D Beams 108
J Kennedy 127
P Dangerfield 123
O Wines 130
P Cripps 53
I Heeney 96
T Miller 30
Bench - A Vandenberg 99, C Ellis-Yolmen 78, and C Blakely 0
Rucks:
T Goldstein 100
N Naitanui 92
Bench - M Cox 0
Forwards:
R Gray 122
D Martin 51
J Bartel 90
M Bontempelli 126
M Clark 78
C Salem 55
Bench - J Hogan 79, and T Lamb 56
Total score for round 1 was 2,076 which has us ranked at 18,211.
Why did we chose certain players? Well some...

As with all years, the pre-season work has been done, final tweaks as the teams are announced will happen (of course) and we all start on zero points.
[span style='font-size: 14px; background-color: #ffffff;]With all the excitement of ASADA wrapping up in a nice little package, it fills me with much happiness to be rolling into another footy season! Seriously, this saga has striped the joy out of the last few years, so it will be nice to roll into a season, excited about what might be.
[span style='font-size: 14px; background-color: #ffffff;]We'll get the teams posted in this thread as they come out.
(That said, I'll be heading off camping tomorrow night for the Easter weekend, so I hope that my phone is up to the task! If anyone wants to update said teams into the post as they are confirmed, I'd appreciate it!)
Good luck to everyone this year!
