THEME: Walesy Appreciation Round Hooray for Walesy, our benevolent overlord who ensures the TS site runs as smoothly and efficiently as a ... well ... smooth and efficient website. Importantly, TS offers all of us in AFL keeper leagues and other varied annual fantasy comps a way to prove just how inept our player selections can be. Hooray for Walesy!

Although Cradle Mountain posted a respectable tally of 1,293 in an 80 point loss last weekend against the Venus Bay Vultures three players have been omitted – defender Vlastuin, forward Himmelberg and midfielder Zaharakis with the trio all demoted to be emergencies for the home game against rival, the Gariwerd Cockatoos. The CMD match committee has opted to bring in a trio of players that are all averaging over 100 points per game at state league level at this early stage of 2019. Two pre-season recruits will play their first game for the Cradle Mountain Devils in defender Daniel Rich who was traded in from the Marble Bar Misfits and forward Rowan Marshall who was selected with pick 49 in the PSD. 22 year-old midfielder Jacob Hopper will play his first game at senior level this season, starting on the interchange.

It is indeed an early bye round for @Len 's Misfits. Spelunkers have been hobbled by Defensive emergencies (as a side note, it is very annoying how all the commentators are saying the American pronunciation Dee-Fence now). Here is the finalised Spelunkers team... Sydney Stack named as emergency, in case he needs to go all super hero and save the world.

Hooray for @walesy! Hooray for 220 or so points from Duncan and Stewart last night for @Jen and the Haze. Hooray for Sydney Stack getting a game in the youngest Richmond team to take the park in a few years. Hooray all.
"Misfits have spent all week whipping the selection committee, one is hopeful the lift in morale in that department will flow to the onfield group." I hope that, in true ORFFA style, the floggings will continue until moral lifts.
Well...who would have thought that David Myers being a late out would screw me over. Chayce Jones and his 40 points last night are making their debut because all my forward/mids played last night and I now have to scrape the bottom of the barrel to get 4 playing mids. Early season 1v2 looks like an anti climax.
Is this allowed under the new rules? I thought we had to name players onfield even if out of position, if our emergency had played during first lockout.
Nope it’s all good - Myers was locked into his starting mids, but a late out so he’s named emergency comes on, exactly the reason for having an emergency.
Ok, but he was a late out before ORFFA full lockout. I assume that’s ok, because he was named in the original team list, but just checking. ?
