Wait what? does that mean UP isn't going to be added?

Or clangers I guess

[Ringo]

Does not sound promising after the anticipation of adding clangers and UP.  Think we should still go with UF and adapt whatever they come up with and customise.

Will be looking into it further over the next few weeks.

[Pkbaldy]

No UP = Bradley Hill's avg is going to be about 12.

[iZander]

Sounds like it

Well that sucks.. :(

[Rids]

Just messaged them for official confirmation that clangers and uncontested possies arent going to be added.

Sounds like the $$$ were too much to justify from CD for the extra categories.

Thanks Rids. Do you know if the other changes coming soon will help our BXV league? (aka should we lock in a decision on scoring system etc now or wait a bit for more info)

[iZander]

how are we adding spoils? are we just adding them ourselves? or is that a category they have already?

[Ringo]

Spoils is a category in the Sports Plus add on which we will have access to.

here are the categories in the package
Stat    Description    
KI    Kicks         3pts
HB    Handballs      1pt
MA    Marks      3pts
HO    Hitouts      1pt
TK    Tackles        3pts
FF    Free Kicks For    1pt
FA    Free Kicks Against    - 1pt   
FD    Free Kick Differential       
GL    Goals       6pts
BH    Behinds       1pt
D    Disposals    
ED    Effective Disposals    2pts
IED    Ineffective Disposals    -2pts
CP    Contested Possessions  4pts
R50    Rebound 50s    
SP    Spoils     2pts
CL    Clearances     4pts

At this stage pending further advices proposing to use all except those 2 in red. Will need to agree on scoring though to set.

So I assume then that there would be a different amount of points awarded for effective and ineffective disposals, and extra points awarded for clearances? Kind of balances clangers not being added then.

No it doesn't because a clanger and an ineffective disposal aren't the same? How does clearances affect the balancing of clangers? (I would love clearances to be worth more because it benefits the hedgehogs but I don't understand the logic behind this?)

I think we just have the exact scoring system as discussed, without UP being worth anything as was planned if they weren't available?
