AXVs: Official Discussion Thread

[Nige]

No HGA in finals I believe, is that right?

So really the only advantage at all is the double chance for teams 1-4?

Still trying to get my head around some rules, or lack thereof since AXVs seems to be heaps different from every other XV.

I thought that we voted on HGA for finals for 2014 onwards at the end of last season... Might be wrong though

If this is the case, the rulebook hasn't been updated.

Yes this is the case, but I don't believe it is in the rulebook. I really do need to update it with all the rule changes that we voted on. I will get around to that tonight.

Was this effective this season? Because I was unaware of this too.



Also, how the hell do you calculate 3% for HGA? I'm terrible at maths.

This rule was originally intended because CW thought he wouldn't have the time to do the regular score updates. We got rid of that one once I took over.

I'm going to update the rulebook with all the other changes now.

[BB67th]

I believe it has been fully updated now. All rule changes have come from this thread. Might be worth just taking a look at it so that everyone is certain on rules.

The Strikers have been the best team all year but their depth is a little lacking imo.

Will be interesting to see how they go.

Also will no Ablett cost the Crocodiles the flag as his form slump cost us any chance last season?

Looking forward to it while I keep myself busy with trade talk...
