ORFFA Round 15 - Phoning it in round Yes, we've reached that time of year where teams start looking longingly towards next year, secure in the knowledge that their 2021 season may well be done in just a few short weeks. It is about the time of the season too where well-regarded fantasy football performers 'phone in' the occasional performance or two, all the while thinking about their lockdown-blighted end of season trip to the foot of their driveway or the local bottle-o. And no, I have not phoned in this round preview. Not at all.

Typical that the two depth defenders I draft during the MSD, Henderson and Broad, are injured/unable to play when I need them, after hardly missing a beat all year

Fifth placed Cradle Mountain have a massive finish to the home and away season, playing three of the top seven sides in their last three games of the season commencing with the fourth placed Misfits on the road so will have several attempts to prove that they are more than just flat track bullies and can match it with the best teams.
