ORFFA Round 16/AFL Round 20 Friday 28th July THEME – Non-Phoning it in Round In a variation of one of our much beloved ORFFA theme rounds, this year we will be asking our fantasy players to in fact not phone in their late season performances and instead try their hardest, dive for the loose ball, hit targets, hold their marks, kick straight and tackle everyone to within an inch of their lives. You know, all the stuff they haven’t been doing all year.
