Title: WXV 2014 Preseason Competition
Post by: ossie85 on February 11, 2014, 12:06:14 PM
Appreciate HB and others helping out with the concept.....

Well, the first two rounds you don't have to do anything!

Qualifying Round

The 18 teams split into 3 groups, based on premiership rankings from last year.

Group A: Sao Paulo, Cairo, Cape Town, Seoul, PNL, Wellington
Group B: Mexico City, Moscow, Toronto, New York, Tokyo, Beijing
Group C: Buenos Aires, Berlin, Dublin, London, New Delhi, Pacific

The total SC score of your ENTIRE squad counts from the first 9 matches of the NAB Challenge.

The highest scoring team from each group progresses to the final 4, plus the highest scoring team that didn't qualify.

Semi Final

The 4 teams that qualify from the first week are ranked from highest scoring to lowest scoring.

Highest scoring team v 4th highest scoring team
2nd highest scoring team v 3rd highest scoring team

The total SC score of your ENTIRE squad counts from the last 9 matches of the NAB Challenge.

Final

The winning teams from the Semi-Final face off against each other. Final round of practice matches of the NAB Challenge.

Each team selects a XV like a normal match. Scoring based on SC.

Happy to discuss though!

Will be interesting to see how this goes, since really it will come down to who has the most players play. Could give an advantage to some of the younger teams as many teams will play their youngsters at this point to see how they go.

So far from the 2 games with teams named I have got 8 of a possible 11 set to play...

We have two Geelong players, and both are shower, yet to play a game... and if my inkling holds true, probably never will.  :(

I blame ML for wanting one of them for no good reason.  :P

Daneil rich missies out for us
but Cyril rioli and Mitch Hallahan are playing

BTW Ossman think there was a mistake made in the preseason draft thread and the PNL thread it says we got Zachary O'Brien
ummm is that meant to be Nicholas O'Brien?

Sorry for a minor hold up fellas. Was going through a few players and seeing which guys to bring it. Was going to bring in ____ but had enough forwards and came across this guy and couldn't pass him as think he could turn into something decent!

PNL welcome Zachary O'Brien to the rookie list! Mature age inside midfielder who has a clean boot and also tackles well.

There aren't any for NAB Challenge. Fantasy Freako is providing a few on his Twitter as he is with Champion Data so he has them.

They have said that hey will release the scores for the match later tonight or in the morning.
So apparently SC scores will be released for these games relatively quickly. Do we want to use these or are we sticking with DT scores?

So here are the SC scores from last night - http://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/see-every-players-supercoach-score-as-geelong-defeated-collingwood/story-fni5f3gz-1226825203172 (http://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/see-every-players-supercoach-score-as-geelong-defeated-collingwood/story-fni5f3gz-1226825203172)

Obviously scores are going to be lower since they have 52 players to fit in to the cap rather than 44, but at the same time they haven't even gone up to 3300... all the scores only add up to 2,892, so not sure what's going on there. ???

Happy with how my three players went last night. Adams showed he should fit in to the Pies team without a hitch, whilst Armstrong demonstrated he could be some handy depth this year. Unfortunate for Freeman to do his hammy when he was looking pretty good for a first gamer...

Don't you love it when a named player does not play as well (Hudson did not play despite being named) Do not mind though as it meant Lynch had time in ruck increasing his score.

Well they name 29 players then have to cut 3 before the match. So some people had to miss out

So here are the SC scores from tonights game - http://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/supercoach-scores-hawthorn-hawks-v-brisbane-lions/story-fni5f3gz-1226826602724 (http://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/supercoach-scores-hawthorn-hawks-v-brisbane-lions/story-fni5f3gz-1226826602724)

One thing I noticed was those scores add up to 3302, so looks like they have gone back to the scaling to 3300. Just thinking out loud, but if all the other games get scaled to the 3300 mark should the scores from last nights match get extrapolated out to 3300 to even it up? Basically it just gives everyone an extra 8 points (except for Stringer since he scored 0). Could make a difference if a team ends up missing out on the next round by say 12 points when they had 6 players in last nights game compared to the team above who had just 2...

Apparently you can get live-ish SC scores on the fox footy website like during the season last year? Someone said you could for Thursday's game anyway, so not sure why Ossie needs second rate links? :o

Unless that other fella was lying :o

That's interesting and annoyingly inconsistent! Will see how the other matches are scaled before making that decision though, but agree if all are 3300 we should scale up the scores (not by adding 8 points though, I'd spread it across proportionally).

It was a mistake on my end. Since I generally just use the quick reply I type in the url stuff rather than click the button. As a force of habit I wrote url = then pasted the website. Then didn't realise I had written the = sign so kept typing the rest of what I was saying. Once it was posted I looked at it and realised that everything I had said was now the link. So went back and changed it by deleting the = sign, but apparantly that just decided to change it to what you saw when you quoted... Weird  ???

Yeah I also had Blaine Johnson pull out. So far had 12 of a possible 21 play. Then got another 6/8 named for the Crows vs Port game (Jake Kelly and Hartlett missing), then 3/3 for the Suns vs Bombers. Hopefully none pull out so after Monday I will have had 21/32 played...

PNL - 703
Cairo - 659

Group C
Buenos Aires - 1020
New Delhi - 778
Dublin - 629
London - 602
Pacific - 572
Berlin - 530



The final 4 based on those scores would be:
Wellington, Toronto, Buenos Aires, Cape Town (with Toronto pulling out Beijing)

The Wolves push out the Thunder, who's dream run may have finishing. Last year's wooden spooner Warriors are still holding out there more fancied opponents, while Buenos Aires and Toronto are looking scary.

Well thanks to Wright's massive 159 the Pumas move up to 1,226 from 18.

In the next 2 games got another 5 playing (out of 7) assuming none a withdrawn. Then with the remaining 2 games could have a possible 9 more play (but think some are injured). Would be happy if I got a total of 30 play this round (can have a maximum of 32 now)...

well as usually for the reindeers injury has us missing some and others well just get pulled out (lobbe and wingard last to be dropped from squad)
so atm we have 12 played of a possible 24 players we have from those teams

so our score is 776 from 12 batting at 50% playing rate  :(

Can't say PNL is travelling too well this Pre-season as Daz pointed out. Hopefully can improve once the real season begins.

But nice to see some youngsters getting a run!

Just a measly 385 points from my 3 players last night takes me to 1,611 :)

Edit: make that 1,636 with the adjusted scores
Title: Re: WXV 2014 Preseason Competition
Post by: ossie85 on February 18, 2014, 07:49:47 AM

Cape Town - 1114
Wellington - 1081
PNL - 992
Seoul - 974

Group B
Toronto - 1483
Moscow - 1294

Group C
Buenos Aires - 1288
New Delhi - 1219
London - 1207
Pacific - 1040
Dublin - 823

The final 4 based on those scores would be:
Sao Paulo (sounding out a warning already!), Toronto, Buenos Aires and Moscow (with Moscow pushing out Cairo, and only 1 point ahead of Beijing!)


Still 3 matches to go!

You guys wanna talk about players to come? IDK which are actually selected... but possibilities include (g2g to work in 4 minutes so I don't have time to see who's playing)

Cox
Barlow
M. Boyd (is he fit?)
Gilbert

and others.

Maybe Beijing will do what the Brewers did last year.... after a poor 2012, came out to be top 4 in NAB games, then went on to have a good season  :o

In saying that, the Brewers know what these matches mean to the game, and provide NO reflection of what is to come  :P

Post by: Toga on February 18, 2014, 05:35:21 PM
That's the plan Purps ;)


But nah I dunno, I think we're doing well because a lot of our younger players are getting a run which they might not get during the season proper. Not sure we'll be able to have a ripping season just yet, still probably a couple of years away :)

(After Eagles/Dockers)

Group A
Sao Paulo - 1825
Cairo - 1538
Wellington - 1298
Cape Town - 1226
Seoul - 1145
PNL - 1127

Group B
Beijing - 1698
Toronto - 1531

Group C
Buenos Aires - 1454
New Delhi - 1414
London - 1302
Pacific - 1179
Berlin - 968
Dublin - 948



The final 4 based on those scores would be:
Sao Paulo, Beijing (!!), Buenos Aires, Cairo (with Beijing and Cairo knocking out Toronto and Moscow)

The Pumas look secure, the Thunder clapped last night and combined with Cairo to edge Toronto out, while Buenos Aires can count themselves lucky - currently ranked 6th overall. Last year's big improvers Berlin and Dublin are struggling.


2 matches left...

My prediction for how the groups will finish...

Group A
Sao Paulo
Cairo
Cape Town
Seoul
Wellingotn
PNL

Group B
Beijing
Moscow
Toronto
Tokyo
Mexico City
New York

Group C
New Delhi
Buenos Aires
Pacific
London
Berlin
Dublin

With Cairo going through as the highest scoring second placed team, who in actual fact will score more than both Beijing and New Delhi...

Every one of the players we have left but Laidler and Marsh (the two Swans we have funnily enough :o) should score decently (or so I hope). However, I'm getting the feeling we're gonna only just miss out.  :(

You won't miss out nigey. Assuming none miss the final cut you have 8 left to play, whereas the only teams that could stand a chance of getting past you for the 4th spot (Toronto and Moscow) only have 3 left to play each.

Hey Oss Not to argue with the spreadsheet king but I have Royals on 1345 from 24 players at an average of 56.04.  as there is a 43 point discrepancy and one player suspect it may be Dannyle Pearce who scored 43 last night.  Mayne not playing last night really hurt my chances.

^ this is why it pays to check my work :P

Exactly correct Ringo, I gave 43 to Clancee instead of Danyle.

So your score goes up by 43, Cairo's goes down by 43....


Which actually means Cairo get knocked out of 4th place, and are replaced by Toronto :/

Sorry Cairo. Blame London's appeal :P

Um actually there is a slight chance Cairo (I'm assuming that's you Nigey) could miss out as we (Cape Town) have a lot of players to come thanks to Chumpy's affinity with the Swans and could jump over Cairo into second in the group.

Cairo: 1538 with Malceski, Goodes, Mumford, Laidler, H Marsh, Giles, Dunstan and Dickson to come
Cape Town: 1226 with JP Kennedy, Cameron, O'Keefe, Cooney, Bird, Rohan, Lamb, Plowman, S Reid and N Haynes to come.

3 more players but more importantly I think some real guns in Kennedy, Cameron, O'Keefe and Cooney could swing things our way.

As I said before, I wish I could be more confident that we will claim the 4th spot but the last thing I want to be is overconfident.

I think the modesty is my way of praying that it all works out for us.  :P

Testify!

Was just about to point this out. Hopefully we can still make it. But more importantly, I'm very happy with the 68 average we've had from our players this preseason. Been very encouraging.

I know who you had left, but honestly I don't see you bridging the gap, which is why I said Cairo will finish second. Although with Cairo being stripped of 43 points since I made the prediction it does become closer. So they are 269 points ahead with 8 left to play compared to your 10. So really you will need most of your players to be outscoring his to get ahead of him and I just don't see that happening.

Obviously if some of the players are left out of the final 26 it makes it easier, but I'm doing these predictions assuming all stay in the team. Plus I wouldn't call Cameron a gun just yet, a 72 average is not gun.

Some ordinary scores for me tonight, but cracked the 2000 mark. With just Smith and Buntine to play I am currently on 2,116 :)

Also after tonight's game my predictions on the final 4 remain the same. Even with Cairo's shocking performances I think they should still just finish ahead of a fast finishing Cape Town. Toronto and Buenos Aires will finish second in group B and C respectively, but won't outscore Cairo.

(After Dogs/Saints)

Group A
Sao Paulo - 2116
Cairo - 1642
Wellington - 1429
Seoul - 1359
Cape Town - 1327
PNL - 1309

Group B
Beijing - 1758
Toronto - 1681
Moscow - 1464
Tokyo - 1330

Group C
Buenos Aires - 1739
New Delhi - 1705
London - 1382
Berlin - 1355
Pacific - 1246

The final 4 based on those scores would be:
Sao Paulo, Beijing, Buenos Aires, New Delhi (with New Delhi pushing out Toronto!)

Still blows my mind a bit that Beijing is on top of group B, and Mexico City are last....

only 5 of the best 15 walked out on the park and walters only played a half game. The fact 15 bench players have played soo far is promising.

Those scores aren't anywhere near accurate though, so you will have scored more than that.

In other news Buntine shows he only bothers to play well when the stakes are high! ;)
Harry Marsh also!  :P
Yeah but I was referring to the fact that the last game Buntine played was the grand final where he scored 108 and then backs that up with this rubbish game where he didn't need to score. Marsh hasn't shown he plays well in a high stakes game ;)
This was high stakes.  :P

Stop raining on my parade HoneyFan.  >:(
Can't tell a Honey Badger what to do. He won't listen :P
My past experiences with those who identify themselves as a Crows fan have been similar.
Well maybe he doesn't listen because he is always right :P

Case in point, I said Cairo would finish second in the group, but at the same time outscore the winners from the other 2 groups, and even with Marsh scoring -1 you have still managed to do that! Congrats on making the semis, I look forward to meeting you in the final :)

You (along with Seoul and New Delhi) had the most players play this round with 30 each. On the flip side New York could only manage 20, with Berlin and Dublin getting 21 on the park. Average per team is obviously 26 :)

If anything is a terrible sign for you as it was mainly the good players who either didn't play or who put up poor scores...

e.g. Dane Swan.

Semi-Finals

Sao Paulo (296) v Beijing (206)
Cairo (32) v New Delhi (298)

Great start by Beijing, 206 from 2 players after a Liam Shiels blinder. Sao Paulo's 296 comes from 5 players, and would be getting a little nervous.

New Delhi's 298 from 5 is a decent start, but a couple of low scores (Bastinac's 21) could hurt long term, but Will Langford's 105 a pleasant surprise. Cairo's have had only Luke Breust's 32 to start.


For positions 5 to 8

Cape Town (82) v Tokyo (127)
Toronto (256) v Buenos Aires (395)

For positions 9 to 12

Pacific (161) v Moscow (156)

Hmm don't know sorry, haven't been following your team since your score doesn't directly affect me this round :P

I've just had Simon White pull out tonight, so just the 4 playing for me (Sloane, Wright, Jacobs, Porps).

After tonights game I will have had 14 of a total 26 play, so not very impressive at all, but after the Wednesday game (assuming none pull out) I will have had 22 of 35 play. Compare that to Beijing who after tonight will have had 9 of 18 play, and after Wednesday 19 of 33 play. So will know a lot more about who is doing well then :)

160ish points down with two less played.

Really depends on who is left to come to fix the deficit.

Semi-Finals

Sao Paulo (1171) v Beijing (863)

Pumas all class, and look to go the Preseason Granny for the 2nd time and hope to win a second title. Still hope for Beijing, but it is fading.

Cairo and New Delhi both have terrible averages at the moment, will New Delhi's extra 313 points prove the difference?

Only averaging slightly more per player, so all Beijing need are to have 1 or 2 more players get games than me to win it, which I can see happening with the players we both have left. Still it's nice to have the lead because you can always rely on points in the bag compared to players.

Scores of 13, 8 and 4 for Talia, Gumbleton and Smith respectively has killed any hope of Beijing picking up the win I think.

Currently 515 points down (1460 to 945), with just 3 less players played. Think if they are going to have any chance the majority of my GWS players can't be named for the final game...

Still hope for Beijing with only 1 of my 5 available for Saturdays game being named. Which means I only have 2 more left to play this round (Masten and Devon Smith), compared to Thunder's 9 (Rosa, Yeo, Naismith, H. Taylor, Caddy, Varcoe, Thurlow, M. Jones and J. Hunt). So for Beijing to win they need those 9 to outscore my 2 by 515 which is certainly very possible.

Masten 100 from just 3 quarters tonight :)

Takes me up to 1,560 with just Devon Smith to play. For the Thunder it was a bit hit and miss with Rosa impressive with 90, Yeo solid with 69, but Naismith disappointing with 39, taking them to 1,137 with 6 to play.

So that makes the equation Devon Smith + 423 vs Taylor, Caddy, Varcoe, Thurlow, Matt Jones + Josh Hunt. It can still be done for the Thunder, but they need their remaining players to play well. Hypothetically if Smith were to score 56 points that would give us a lead of 479, meaning Beijing would need to score 480 to progress (assuming I would go through if it were a tie), which averages out to 80 points per player. Thunders best chance obviously is if Smith pulls out, which would mean they would only need 71 per player to pick up the win...

Semi-Finals

Sao Paulo (1560, Devon Smith to come) v Beijing (1137, Taylor, Caddy, Varcoe, M Jones, J Hunt, Thorlow to come)
Cairo (1178, Mumford, Giles and Dunston to come) v New Delhi (1197, Montagna, Duncan, Greene, Savage, Williams, Murdoch, Michie, Horlin-Smith, Bail, Palmer, Webster, McCarthy to come)

Pumas lead still points towards victory, but the Thunder aren't quite out of it yet.... You'd think big games from Taylor, Caddy and Varcoe and fail from Devon Smith is what is needed.

Cairo and New Delhi looks very close... But New Delhi just have too many players up there sleaves.

The smart money is on a Sao Paulo v New Delhi preseason Grand Final.

For positions 5 to 8

Cape Town (1464) v Tokyo (1015)
Toronto (1345) v Buenos Aires (1297)

Ossie not that I would like you to be right, but I have Beijing's score at 1,137, not 1,094. Before last nights match my score was the same as yours at 939, so just wondering what scores you put in from last nights game? I have Rosa at 90, Yeo 69 and Naismith 39, which takes it to 1,137.

Ah, that was weird. Fixed - you see his average hasn't changed :/

What happened is I've been playing around with how the spreadsheet records scores, and was using Kreuzer as my example and his score of (43) was being recorded as a 'senior' score, while everyone as a 'reserve' score.

Easy fix.

Just a question regarding the final since we are naming a normal team rather than getting every score. The Suns vs Pies match is this Sunday, whereas all the other games are next week, so is it going to be a rolling lockout type of thing or do we have to name a team by Sunday and then hope that those players play next week?

Could possibly do something like all Collingwood and Suns players locked in on Sunday. Then you name the rest of your team on Thursday with say 5 emergencies. All squads would be named by the Thursday so should work :)

Is it too late to delist Harrison Marsh?

Can we trade him to somebody?

Pls, spare Cairo the agony.


Take buddy of my hands.

You're not having regrets are you Holz?  :P

I'm still convinced he won't score at Sydney. Took the deal based off advisers.

Mitch Clark for NDS is making it an alright move though.

If you want a head to head battle between Hunt and Smith tomorrow night you need 423 from your 5 players tonight. Looks like they could score around that mark too...
Title: Re: WXV 2014 Preseason Competition
Post by: CrowsFan on February 28, 2014, 11:54:04 PM
Don't think they quite did it for you sorry toga. Scores of 94 (Caddy), 78 (Varcoe), 56 (Taylor + Jones) and 54 (Thurlow) takes the Thunder to 1,475 from 26. So still 85 points behind the Pumas score of 1,560 from 22.

Only real hope for you now is if Smith doesn't end up playing, but even then you would require a big effort from Hunt, who managed a score higher than 85 only 5 times last year.

You know where we can find stats n stuff? Obviously the games aren't being televised which is pretty lame. Just skimmed through the report on the AFL website and there were no mentions of Adams or Armstrong so thats nice :P

On another note, SPNDT-alliance is clearly proving to be the best and most dominant in XV history! Both teams are benefiting from the partnership and in no time both teams will be contesting for the real-season GF 8)

I'm actually not entirely confident that we'll know who is subbed... So I might say no for the GF

Oh and good luck to LE and the Tigers crew :)

Hopefully the stats are released at some point (even if just DT)...

So reading through the Freo live chat of the game they mentioned champion data are doing the stats, so you would assume that at some point the scores will be released. I reckon it could be that the scores from all matches will be released at the same time just before the season starts.

Champion Data are releasing all the DT scores in the Fantasy Freako rave next week which usually comes out on Wednesday.

I have no idea about SuperCoach scores.

And now we play the waiting game. Had a few big players this week, namely Roughy, Gunston and Houli, but also some disappointments. As far as I'm aware neither of my co-captains did anything of substance...

Heard anything on your players LE?
Title: Re: WXV 2014 Preseason Competition
Post by: elephants on March 08, 2014, 08:27:17 PM
Yeah mate,

Dan Gia tore up, 22 touches, 9 marks, 3 goals, 2 tackles #gun #finewine
Gaff & Welly were decent enough, think both went 90+ or thereabouts
Duncan kicked the first goal but not sure on stats
Jpod kicked a couple

I'm too keen. Seriously can't wait until Wednesday though :P
