JA: What time does the draft finish tonight?

10pm

[45HG 1,558]

With every pick I bewilder myself more and more.

[Dappa Dan 2,188]

Oh man. The autopicks have been screwing me. I have 2 forwards, 1 back and 1 ruck...

trading anyone?

[Mad_Melbourne 877]

andy otten, dammnit

[DeeVoted 583]

YAHH finally nailed a DEE whoa

[JACKATTACK 17]

10pm

I'm going to keep it open till 12:00 and finish this thing off.

We don't need this hangning over our heads another day,not for players ranked in the 300s.

I can't make the time limit shorter, so 5 minutes will have to do.

Everyone who is here try and make your picks in 1 minute.

If you're off to bed; change your draft preferences to autopick. And select your pre-draft rankings.

[scarlett 247]

yeah i think im just about to set the auto pick, i've filled my team with cf and cb just so i can cover all parts of the ground, now at this late stage i think im going to set auto pick and try and get best available. what were other peoples stratergies?

*edit. also when placing the players in your team, did i read it right that the emergencies score points but the players on the bench dont? i've gotta be wrong on that dont i?

Emergencies only replace players who are injured, so only score i a player in the same position does not play.

[Mad_Melbourne 877]

jack attack, you are my least favourite person, your two picks were my next two picks, i saw dennis lane go and i was like cool i can get shaw then, but no no you took them both

I did it the other way. The stars of the comp were what won us games last season... I thought I'd go for best available for the first 6-8, then after that draft for whatever I was missing until I had enough of each type, plus a couple of rucks.

Great work J.A.

Thanks a lot. Still not sure how the actually scoring or what not works. But oh wells.

You clearly have an eye for talent.

Has been a pleasure, though next year we're doing a 'live draft' with 1 minute time limits. Works a lot better.

And now for some speccy picks.

[scarlett 247]

yeah im gonna throw in some left field selections now too.

[Sideshow Bob 2,386]

still 1 or 2 late draft gems available..... maybe

Surely a few more Dees can find a home?

[jayceebee31 761]

took a couple of risk's, i think watts will actually score quite well but mcintosh is injured until rnd 4 with barlow also injured for the first 4 rounds.(also i had to have a melbourne player in there somewhere!)

You done very well with your list- congrats..Now, re the Bench list- is it we still have to pick, C, B, F, R, U or just the best 5 players we think are left..please advise..as I may not be able to make it tomorrow night- maybe in the air --may have to make auto..-a reply would be great from someone please.Thanks

emergencies have to be the same type to fill each of the emergency spots (C,B,F,R,UTL)except utility which can be anyone. Bench can be anyone but a balance is probably wise.

Edit: Tonight is the last night, I extended the night to 1:00am to finish it off.

More time for trading, i know many of you will want to balance your teams out a bit, but more on that later.

Looks like I can steal some tips for how to run Mk 2's draft. For example, 5 minutes per pick.

Highly reommended.

And to be honest, a live draft works a lot better, 1 minute for each, you'll have it finished in maybe 3 hours.
