Konrad:
It appears that your method shares a number of points with Frawley's, yet differs in others. You have never stated directly what the points of agreement are.
Below I have inserted a list I put together a couple of years ago when I was testing Frawley's method. I went through his examples carefully, and I believe this list is a complete summary of his method. I would be interested in learning of those areas where you disagree with himl.
BTW, the formatting of the original was not entirely preserved when pasted into this window. If anyone wants the cleaner version let me know and I'll see what can be done.

[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]From [/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman, serif]Sports Astrology[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]by John Frawley[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]I. House Placement[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]A. Planets[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]1. A planet on a cusp controls that house[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]2. A planet inside a cusp is controlled by that house[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]3. Orb: 2-3 degrees at most (what's important is where it's at, not where it's going)[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]4. Planets apply or separate from cusps[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]5. A planet either on or inside its own house is strengthened but not so much as if its opponents planet is there.[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]6. If retrograde and in enemy house it makes no difference.[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]7. If retrograde and on enemy cusp it is still positive but not as strong[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]8 Antiscia follow the same rules as a planet, but not quite as strong.[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]9 A planet close to a cusp counts only if it rules a house (p.110)[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]10. He ignores new planets even if they rule one of the key houses and are on a cusp (p.110)[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]11. Ditto for aspects to key rulers by new planets.[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]B. The Moon[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]1. The Moon doesn't stand for either team: it shows the flow of events.[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]2. The Moon on either side of the 1st cusp or 10th cusp is for the favorite[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]3. The Moon on either side of the 4th cusp or 7th cusp is for the underdogs[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]4. The same for its antiscion[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]5. Other placements are irrelevant.[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]C. Fortuna[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]1. Use the house of the antiscion of Fortuna, not its bodily placement[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]2. Same rules as the Moon[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]3. Can be very powerful[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]II. Aspects[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]A. Planetary aspects[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]1. Ignore aspects between Ruler of 1st and 7th or 4th and 10th[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]B. Moons aspects[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]0. Aspects only to the four key house rulers.[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]1. Are very important[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]2. Use orb of 5-6 degrees[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]3. The end of the sign is the limit for aspects[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]4. The nature of the aspect seems not to matter. Uses major aspects.[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]5. Moons final aspect to ruler wins.[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]6. Bodily conjunctions are usually final. Don't take Moon past a conjunction.[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]7. If Moon aspects R1 that favors the favorite, regardless of the planet or[/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman, serif] aspect.[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]And so for the other aspects.[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]8. Aspects to antiscia are less reliable. Conjunctions or oppositions are strong.[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]9. The Moon can be taken past antiscial conjunctions unless the conjunction is at 5-6 degrees. Then it's usually final.[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]10.[/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman, serif] Long-range antiscial conjunctions are final, short-range ones are not. (p.112)[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif][/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman, serif]11. [/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman, serif]If the Moon is R1 or R7 keep the Moon as the flow of events; use its dispositor as ruler of that house[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif][/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman, serif]12. [/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman, serif]If the Moon is R10 or R4 keep the Moon as the flow of events; do without a ruler[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif](Ex.: If Cancer rises and Moon is in Scorpio and Mars is R10, use Mars as R1 (as dispositor of the Moon) and do without R10.[/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman, serif])[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]He is rarely confident of charts where Moon is either R1 or R7. Dual role causes confusion[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]C. Fortuna[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]1. Keep Fortuna still: things come to aspect her.[/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman, serif] Except nodes.[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]2. Lunar aspects[/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman, serif] to Fortuna:[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]a) Cnj, Tri, or Sxt Fortuna or its antision favor the favorites[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]b) Sqr or Opp to Fortuna or its antiscion favors the underdogs[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]c) Use same o[/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman, serif]ranges[/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman, serif] as before[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]d) Aspects to Fortuna or its antiscion are final[/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman, serif] regardless of other aspects it may make within its range.[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]3. Aspects by key rulers to Fortuna[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]a. R1 to Cnj Fortuna or its antiscion favors the favorites[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]b. R1 to Opp Fortuna or its antiscion favors the underdogs[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]c. R7 to Cnj Fortuna or its antiscion favors the underdogs[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]d. R7 to Opp Fortuna favors the underdogs [/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman, serif](he's not certain of this)[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]e. R7 to Opp the antiscion of Fortuna favors the underdogs [/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]f. Use only Cnj and Opp. Orb about 5 degrees, about 1 degree for 'new' planets[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]g. Watch for refranation and other prohibitions [/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif](if R1 makes another aspect before Fortuna there is no aspect)[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]h. Aspects by R4 or R10 to Fortuna aren't decisive by themselves.[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]4. Dispositor of Fortuna [/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]a. If dispositor applies to Cnj [/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman, serif]of Fortuna [/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman, serif]it favors the favorites[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]b. If dispositor applies to Opp [/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman, serif]of Fortuna [/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman, serif]it favors the underdogs [/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]c. If dispositor of Fortuna is R10 or R4 give priority to its role as dispositor[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]d. If it is R1, R[/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman, serif]7[/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman, serif], or Moon, forget it as dispositor[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]D. Nodes[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]1. North node good. South node bad[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]2. House placement or conjunctions to angles seem not to matter (p.115)[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]3. But significators are helped or harmed. Powerful testimony.[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]4. Fortuna conjunct north node helps favorites; Fortuna conjunct south node helps the underdogs (Cnj only. Orb: 2 degrees at most)[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]5. Moon doesn't belong to either side, so conjunctions don't matter[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]6. Applying to or by doesn't apply. [/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman, serif]The nodes[/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman, serif] are 'csnters of goodness or nastiness'. (p.110)[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif][/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]E. Antiscia[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]1. Keep antiscia still. The Moon and planets apply to them (p.110)[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]2. If an antiscion and the node are within orb they are conjunct regardless of which applies. [/FONT]([FONT=Times New Roman, serif]It's the closeness that counts (p.112)[/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman, serif])[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]III. Combustion[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]A. Is destructive. Orb: 2 degrees[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]B. Fortuna combust is good for the underdogs[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]C. Moon combust means nothing[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]IV. Retrogradation[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]A. No effect, but note direction of movement[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]V. Fixed stars[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]B. No effect[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]VI. The New Planets[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]A. Orb: 1 degree, max (on p.94 he uses 1.5 degrees)[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]1. Pluto[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]a. destructive if ona key cusp[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]b. If Cnj or Opp Fortuna or its antiscion or dispositor it favors the underdog[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]c. Hurts the favorites, even if on the 2nd cusp.[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]2. Neptune[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]a. Inconsistant, but make hurt the favorites. Watch this.[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]3. Uranus[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]a. Inconsistant[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]b.If applying 'immediately' to MC strongly favors the favorites[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]c. Conjuct Fortuna it favors the favorites[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]d. Opposite Fortuna it favors the underdogs[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]e. Orb: 1 degree max[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]4. Saturn[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]a. Unless R1 or R7 it is afflictive[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]b. This takes precedence over being R10 or R4, etc.[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]VII. Miscl[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]A. If Mercury and Jupiter rules the angles, use R1 and R7 and do without R4 and R10.[/FONT]
