No I will not....it is for when I am in Peter Mac' and need to get into our league.......

 

now we have 12 coaches, I suggest we play with what we have....therefore draw a draft number to pick so, we can start doing some homework..

 

these are are my thoughts to both Matt & yourself.

 

lets go....

JCB here it is again.

Check your message inbox. This link is definitely there already as are several other messages I have sent you ?

thanks Gary I just re sent the link for John as well. I'm home now from work so will be able to be a lot more active leading up to the draft. I'm quite happy to run with the 12 teams, with the extra players available, perhaps an extended squad. Can't have to many good players sitting in the waiver list!

OK everyone draft order is set, I entered all our team names into a Draft Order Generator and went with what came up. Heres a link to the page I used if anyone is interested http://www.draftordergenerator.com/draft-order-results.php

ok everyone this is the team line up at the moment, it was what he had last year and worked well. As I stated earlier, with less teams (from 16 or 18 teams last year?) and dropping again from 14 to 12 there are going to be a lot more players available. this has advantages to cover injuries and poor form also bye weeks. but it has disadvantages because its easier to cover injuries poor form and bye weeks. so my question is do we want to make the team line ups bigger?

Emergency Coverage 

 

 

 

 

Also emergencies only cover that position, forwards cover forwards centres cover centres. There is an option for an emergency player to come in if someone is injured if they spend 5% or 10% and so on  time on ground, I think we will go with players aren't replaced if the game has already started. if you cop and injury at the start of a game then thats football. But I'm open if the majority want it the other way.

Oh yeah this year, if you leave a spot blank when setting up your weekly line up, your emergency will not cover the empty space, which a few coaches took advantage of last year.

So far Gary(OMR) is the only one to suggest a scoring option I'll post his up and another one and we'll go with majority again, or if you have a better idea throw it up. would love to get this set asap so we can choose our draft order to suit the scoring.

here's what it was automatically set at, i just changed Hit Outs to 3 so it gives an uneven total of 25.

This is the same way it worked last year (I recall robbo getting screwed by doing this when he tried it when playing me  )

The thing that people (including myself) took advantage of was to put a player in the Friday game in as an emergency and put a player who isn't named (from a non Friday night team) on the field.  If the emergency did well then you leave it, or if the emergency was bad then you move the non-playing player who is on the team onto the bench and replace with another playing player.

I'd say a spoil has a much bigger impact than a hitout.  That said, I'm not too fussed - as long as we know what the points are worth before the draft then we can build teams to those categories

By the way, haven't had the chance to get on here too much lately to say good work on all you've done!

ok. do we have a gentlemens agreement that we dont do this or change final teams to friday night. Or is it just not bigger deal if everyone knows they can do this and as lance armstrong once implied, its fair because everyone's doing it. Some people may find it tough to get there line ups finalized by friday night.
