Probably unfair to you to have to PM a few picks with back ups, as you could easily miss out on something.

I think waiting over the weekend is reasonable, personally.

PMing picks is only something that should be done a couple of picks in advance.

Otherwise you're short-changing yourself by not having all the information at hand.

You might assume certain players are gone that could change your strategy.

Having said that, I have a bit of work on today, so I'm going to PM my 2 picks to old55 now.

PM me a pick for each day you wont be around and one extra in case your selection gets taken - that will cover the 24 hour rule.

I'm gonna be interstate on business from Sunday night and will have less access next week myself.

No worries old. If a decision could be made before the next pick that would be helpful for planning going ahead

Fair enough - let's go with you can make your wild card pick at any time

Gives more flexibility.

Just had an idea re a scoring system at the end of the Draft.

Once all 10 teams are fully selected, we're given a day to sort through our 18 players for a final team sheet submission.

Each team manager would then analyze the other nine teams (you can't vote for your own) and then rate them using a 5-4-3-2-1 style voting system and then submit to old55 in a private ballot. Or even a top 9 so all teams receive votes.

It would be a fun way to analyze each side, providing a finite result to the whole exercise.

What do you think?

Nope.

I've focused on building a team, not selecting the best rated players.

I've also chosen based on how I expect them to perform in 2011 & the future, rather than on previous performances.

There's unfortunately no decent way of judging this.

Edit: think I misunderstood.

Thought you meant individual players.

I'm happy with that system. Why not?

Sorry to clarify I meant the team. We would look at each others' teams and rate them based on an assault on the 2011 flag.

Just another fun add-on to be able to analyze and rate...

Edit: I have edited my original post so as to clarify

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w
