What’s this all about?

Ok. Hello everybody! So what is this blog about? Well, Dream Team and Supercoach for the AFL, primarily. If you don’t know what these are, either click on the links and find out, or go away!

The leagues for SC and DT are made up from members of the website FanFooty (you should check it out, it’s great fun to talk, ask and give advice, and basically everything football – fantasy or otherwise). After the 2010 season finished, chrisuzz, a member of FanFooty, started up a thread seeking to create a “coaches” only league. On FanFooty, a coach is someone who is a regular and contributed to specific parts of the forum. Many people were keen to join this!

Unfortunately one of our coaches, elxam, tragically passed away. In memory of this quality poster and terrific person, it was decided to name this Coaches league after him.

As the off-season grew, so did the number of people wanting to participate in this league. It was decided to split both SC and DT into two leagues – Victorians and All-Stars – and have a 32 Team Competition. Each round, you play 1 person for your league and 1 person from the other league. The finals will consist of the best 16 teams, playing off in elimination for ultimate glory.

This blog will (hopefully) have many things to discuss. Including:
– Team analysis
– Statistics galore
– What went wrong and what went right
– Trades
– Odds (calculated with mathematics!)
– Coaches discussions

And much more. Hope you all enjoy, please visit FanFooty for preseason advice, and I stress we are not officially linked to this site, but thoroughly recommend it.
