Competitions 2016 PHANTOM DRAFT

[Jimmae]

Right now I am in U.S. election frenzy. Requesting a start after tomorrow evening.

I'm not starting the draft until Thursday at the earliest, because I will need confirmation that people are reasonably happy with the order for the ballot, and also to give them a chance to prepare a little.

Also I'm taking your post to mean you'll keep Sydney.

Any rules regarding amount of time to make your pick?

With 80 or so picks to get through, I'll make it 3 hours between 9 AM & 9 PM Melbourne time (GMT/UTC+11), with a little leeway for Bluey24 if he's going to participate. However, if people regularly need the 3 hours, I will bring that into 2 hours or less, because no one wants this to run for more than 3-4 days.

People can submit a preference list to me if they feel they'll struggle to make that dead line on a given day. If you don't do this and have already reached 38 players on your primary list I will pass for you, and if you haven't reached 38 on the list, I will pick for you.

 

[Chasing 17]

In and will keep Brisbane.

 

[Jimmae]

Just over 2 hours to go:

Adelaide: Coona Blues
Fremantle: HBF
Hawthorn: Bluey24
Melbourne: Wickzki
Western Bulldogs: blue_boyz14

Current draft order: http://www.afl.com.au/news/2016-10-30/indicative-2016-afl-draft-order

Keep your team, drop them, or quit the draft? Let me know by 7 PM AEDT or you're automatically dropped.

I'm also taking expressions of interest for those who'd like to join the ballot given we're currently got 3 slots available.

MEB_ can you check on ya boi? He seems to be ignoring this thread.

In fact, everyone but Wickzki should have seen a notification about this.

 

[HARKER]

This guy takes no prisoners.

Got to do it that way sometimes.....always actually.

 

[Mr_Plow]

Out.

Bulldogs up for the taking.

Final call:

Adelaide: Coona Blues
Fremantle: HBF
Hawthorn: Bluey24
Melbourne: Wickzki

OK, we've got 9 teams available now: Adelaide, Essendon, Fremantle, Geelong, Hawthorn, Melbourne, Richmond, St Kilda, Western Bulldogs

Just casting an eye over them, I'd rank them:

Essendon (1, 20, 29, 41, 68, 95)
Fremantle (7, 35, 40, 71, 79, 97)
Western Bulldogs (18, 26, 50, 75)
Adelaide (13, 43, 53, 67, 90, one F/S)
Geelong (24, 38, 42, 64, 72, 74, 91, one F/S)
St Kilda (23, 36, 61)
Richmond (27, 56, 82)
Melbourne (47, 69)
Hawthorn (88, 90, 108)

How's that order look for the ballot?

Each of these list of picks represents the maximum amount of players that could be taken, the minimum being two less. Try to go to for the max if you can, because it looks all bar a couple of clubs will, which means we could see up to 89 players picked up.

Safe to say that the draft will still be rocking on after our pick 70, no matter which way we go there.

Order is spot on Jimmae.

You're draft should be over pretty bloody quickly! Just put a footnote at the end of your pick 10 selection to say you will match bids after a certain pick for Scheer.

Haha basically.

 

[Cringle]

I'll take the Dogs if they're still available.

I'll put you in the ballot.

 

[Coona Blues]

No thanks, not interested in Crow campaigners after trade period.

If you re-join, you're a 1 in 9 chance of getting Adelaide.

Lol.

Yeah sure I'll play again, but no need to worry about the Hawks holding anyone up - I'll probably take the last 3 picks of the draft!

I wouldn't give anyone that shitty hand by default; you're in the ballot.

I'm happy to pick for Hawthorn if no one else joins up, as it'll keep me engaged in the process.

 

[Sheephead]

If you need numbers Jimmae, throw me to the wolves..........I'll take Frankston.

I'll add you to the ballot then!

I'll take Hawthorn, and we can get started on the sorting hat. Everyone gets one veto in case they don't like the team (but you probably won't like the alternative).

We're also up to a maximum of 93 list spaces available after today's news.
