Australia's Phil Molloy a structural engineer, is an elite member of the APBA Football community who has shared numerous innovations to refine the game for at least the past 10 years. I first interviewed him in April 2013 for our APBA ICONS series and in late 2014 pitched my 2007 Patriots against his 1993 Niners in the global Skype tournament assembled by the National Card Football League. Phil talks at length here about his inventions for APBA Football, including:

• Read option
• Timing method with two minutes to go in the half/game
• Revamped penalty chart
• Dice-range calculator

APBA Hall of Famer (2016) Greg Barath has been hosting Phil's innovations on his website, oguard62.net, and Phil also posts on the Between The Lines APBA forum on Delphi (look for Phil's handle 6649er)

Having tried cricket board games in his youth, his love of numbers fuels his APBA modifications. “I've used that solid basis in math and stats to develop my innovations,” he says.
The native of Adelaide began following the NFL after he watched his first Super Bowl in 1982. ...
