    Hi All,

    Those of us involved in TS keeper leagues have increasingly dealt with idle teams across early an midseason AFL bye rounds.

    In response we have decided to trial a 10 aside modified ORFF* format competition over the 7 multibye rounds in 2026
    • ORFF* 10's (or Tens) team format is 2D-4M-2F-2IC (no R line) - with 1 emergency per line if teams can field over 10 players, as usual OOP in D/M/F = 50% points only
    • The squad used is the same as the team's ORFFL/ORFFA/ORFFU/ORFFF squad of 28 or 30 players
    • The competition format is a pseudo-Double Elimination Comp held in 4 and 8 team bye rounds
    • TSleagues won’t support the comp so all scores will be manually calculated by participating team coaches and posted in a dedicated ORFF* 10’s competition thread
    • OR team scores (with perfect hindsight post OR) used for Comp Seeding teams ranked 1-8 receive a double chance/easier path and teams ranked 9-16 must win 6 consecutive elimination matches, teams ranked 17 onwards based on OR scores do not qualify for the comp
    • Round 2 onwards match schedule as per diagram and teams to be named by Friday night lockout
    • H2H matches rds2-3 eliminates 8 teams
    • Rd12 is Minor Premiers GF (match 15) and 3 more Elimination Matches (Matches 16-18) in the right hand bracket
    • Minor Premiers rests in Rounds 14&15 and plays the Grand Final in Round 16 against winner of the 4 right hand bracket survivors

      I’m fairly sure we are playing this weekend. The whole point of this is to keep going during the bye rounds

      Site is rolled, for now the Tens lockout is Friday night, given that we haven/t had any feedback and it is expected looping will be a luxury for some depleted sides.

      Warburton @EddieV are cruising to the Tens minor premiership and rounds 14 and 15 off.

      Current unofficial scores are 29ers 8/684 to the Wanderers 9/949 with a 4 digit score well within their sights with Kade Chandler to complete proceedings on Sunday, while Black Swamp needs a miraculous effort from Thomas and Daniels in the same early game.

      The Blowfly's 688/7 currently lead the Magicians 692/8. In a remarkedly consistent performance, all 7 Blowfly's have scored between 88 and 112 with a very nice symmetrical feel about it. Howe and Gunston wound back the clock, Dunkley and Hewett hit some form in the 90's, and Nick was Nick. The Magicians have been chasing tail a bit, some questioning whether not looping Max Hall was an intentional decision or if it's the early signs of dementia. Bailey 115 Dale 109 combo put up a fight on Saturday to keep in touch, but Ned needs a Long hard look in the mirror, especially with would-be the top scorer for the match Matt Johnson 124 effectively not called up to the best 10.

      Blowfly's 688/7 have Joe Fonti, Jack Steele and Tim Kelly to play, against Magicians 692/8 Lachie Ash and Harley Reid.
