Nutty Neeldy and the Dees have recently come out and suggested delaying the PSD and RD until after season eve. This isn't a completely nutty idea.
Rather than moving or shifting these drafts around, how about, perhaps, adding another draft somewhere in between the pre-season and the home and away season - the Post-Pre Season draft (PPSD).
The big advantage of this proposed PPSD would be the ability to gauge a playing list under match conditions, and also to give more time for teams to be able to identify weaknesses and to rectify them as best as possible. From an AFLPA point of view, it could allow another avenue for players to get jobs in the AFL. Only one round would be needed and it wouldn't be mandatory for teams to participate.
Thoughts?
