Yeah I'm in!

If we start early enough, can you set the draft time at 10hrs and speed it up at the end if need be?

Ah - I'm just looking and you can do a private league, therefore completely over-ruling the list of non-negotiable rules above.

Which therefore means if we have more than 8 people interested, we can accommodate.

The options go from 1 hour, to 1 day, to No Limit (and then all of the shorter ones). Happy to do whatever the masses like, whether it's a pick each day type scenario or all in one day/evening....

And those times can be sped up at any time at all, so more than happy to start with a 1 day pick and speed up when need be?

The Ultimate Footy draft we've done for a few years on this board usually works alright with 4hrs, although it does have start and finish times for the day, so you don't have your draft window expire on you in the middle of the night.

If we end up getting a fair few teams, cutting the team sizes to 15 would be a good idea, otherwise your last half dozen picks are just trying to pick the least worst player left.

As the little taco girl says ... why not both?

 

[pjfairbairn]

Should we cut it off there as 8 players? Seems the optimum number...

 

[Topkent]

Squads of 22 make it 176 players. Or essentially the top 10 of every team. I'd only add more people if you are dropping the squad size down

I like the idea of 22 players, makes it all seem a bit more realistic.

If people are ready to register, I can set up an 8 team, 22 players per team league with a 1 day per selection window to begin with (and speed it up as we go).

With 8 teams, I would propose we start Round 1, H2H vs. each opponent twice, Finals Round 18 (and skip byes).

Yep, absolutely agree ... No one should have to draft Liam Jones ...

Be like super coach when you just fill the bench with rookies who might get a game

 

[pjfairbairn]

Sweet, I will set this up in the next 24 hours and then post the League details

 

[pjfairbairn]

Alrighty then, the league has been set up. The earliest it will allow the draft is February 6th, 8:30am (AEDT). We will start with 1 day picking and look to speed up if needed before the start of the season.

I have set it up under the following conditions, but if there's overwhelming support to edit any of that then please just let me know.

The code to join the Private League is 549354; you can do this at https://supercoach.heraldsun.com.au/#/afl/draft.

Please make sure you join in the next few days so that we're good to go, and if you have changed your mind please let us know so somebody else can jump in. Sorry about my team name, really showing my age #SimisterIntentions

 

[DeesFanTheMan]

I am keen for this if there is space/or a drop out.

 

[pjfairbairn]

5 people registered - anybody else yet to do so and doing it any time soon?

Okay, think we're probably at a point of re-opening to the main board if those who've registered interest don't actually register within the next 24 hours or so.

Why don't you tag the blokes and blokettes who haven't

Wish it was as easy as knowing who they are - their BF aliases don't necessarily match the team names.

Assumed they are watching the thread, but in case they're not (and with apologies to who has registered):

TheCount
dee_mac
dylan93 (think you're registered)
Crimson Azure
00Stinger
