Going forward, and with effect from the report thread for the game today (Saturday):

• Except where I suggest line ups, selectors will each receive $1 credit after the report thread for the game being put up and the game is completed (that is, they don't have to wait until there is a report of the game).  This also applies to non-playing selectors. 


• The first PRG player from each team to post an account of the game on the report thread will receive $1 credit each.  If any PRG players watch the game without playing in the game, and post an account of the game on the report thread, the first to post a report will also receive a $1 credit.  The reports must be first-hand and genuine to receive a credit.  


• Each captain will receive an additional $1 credit if a player from their team provides an account on the report thread. Unless otherwise stated, selectors are also captains. Captains should encourage their team-mates to do a report, or just do one themselves.

Therefore, the total amount of credit available for selectors/captains remains $4, but $2 will now be given upfront after the game, without waiting for a report.  The total amount of credit available for reports is increased from $2 to $3.  

The ball and gloves credits remains unchanged. 

All of the game credits referred to above will continue to be recorded on the report thread within a week of the game.  

Additionally, in the first 24 hours of the schedule thread for the following week's game being put up, the selectors, captains, and the first PRG player from each team (and the first of any non-playing PRG player) to provide an account before then, will have priority.  

..., I will make the first report for each team $2 with effect from the game on 17 Aug 2019. 

$1 credit to each of Nick and Jye as selectors.

Game finished 8-5, with a valiant comeback by the Reds led by Jun Hur who scored from some nice takedowns from long passes, as well as pouncing on loose balls.

Reds came close at 4-5 before Whites finally scored 8 goals.

Cedric scored a backheel. Thus Cedric is man of the match.

Gloves credit pls

I received a complaint on WhatsApp a short while ago about Jye's conduct as captain from a player on his team. Until the matter is adequately canvassed, either on this thread or in a more private WhatsApp group chat, I will withhold Jye's additional $1 credit as captain. However, I will not impose any additional sanction (for example, blocking Jye as selector or captain for a fixed period of time) until a more thorough examination of the events.

Every player is ultimately responsible, because they decide whether to opt out themselves as selector/captain, and every player has a vote in the poll for selectors for each game.

Glove credit can only be claimed by the captain. From the "Game kit & equipment" thread:

If, for each game, selectors/captains bring a pair for use by their team, they will get an additional $1 credit. As with the ball credit, they have to claim the credit on the report thread. If any player does not want to share gloves with others, you can always buy your own pair.

....

A captain can of course ask any of his team to bring the gloves, and assign the credit to that player.

The above was repeated on the report thread for the game on 17 Aug 2019.

I may have to introduce a $1 penalty for wrongfully claiming a credit.

Final score was 7-5 to Whites. Reds desperately unlucky, hit the post 4 times & 2 cleared off the line. Brilliant going forward and an absolute mess at the back were Reds, whilst Whites were consistently decent in all areas & forced mistakes from the back and punished them.

$2 credit to each of Kien and Babs for a first report for Whites and Reds respectively. Additional $1 credit to Nick as captain.
