Summer Fantasy Draft Game

[KUNG FU]

Aim: Acquire the best overall team for 2007. Skill, structure, 2007 form and fitness will be the main criteria for assessment. Note that a player's worth will be assessed solely on their form in 2007, not what they were worth last year or 5 years down the track: for example Gibbs will be Rising Star quality, not Brownlow and Kosi won't be worth anything if he is injured all year again. Player assessments will therefore be speculative.

Method: All players currently on AFL lists and those nominated in National and Pre-Season Drafts will be available. The teams are complete fantasy, so there's no concern over personalities or loyalties. M Carr can play with Lovett-Murray. The draft will reverse its sequence every second round:

First Round: Carlton, Dons ... Sydney, West Coast
Second Round: West Coast, Sydney ... etc etc

24 hours maximum allowed for each pick, otherwise you will be passed. Picks that have Pass may be filled in at any time from the remaining available players.

[Dandy_GO]

Count me in. Sounds fun.

 

[sum0005]

i am interested

 

[Gets!]

I'm down.

 

[Mego Red]

Well, I'd jump on board, but I'm on the otherside of the world, which can be a pain with games like this ...

 

[-VC-]

I'll play only if you need numbers. Will gladly drop out if more people are knocking on the door coz I played the last Crows drafting game.

 

[*PAF]

Nothing to do with Latvia I see.

 

[crowsarethebest]

I'm in.

 

[Alex99]

Like VC said, I will be more than happy to join in and play but happy to take a back seat in favour of someone else as I played the last one.

 

[Alex99]

I wouldn’t mind doing an AFL draft with all 16 clubs represented, on the draft and trading board trying to get one representative from every club involved.

It could work in the same theme as a Mike Sheehan and Robert Walls top 50 players, as if every player was lined up against the wall and you had to take the best.

Similar sentiments over here.

 

[RooDog]

[turbo182]

Oooh pick me! Pick me! I need something to do now that unis over!

No seriously, i'm very interested.

Though these kinds of drafting games work best if folks have to draft to position, at least to a degree - it should be 16 members, and the draft should have 22 rounds, so that everyone has a first 22 ...

Yeah I agree, but I'm willing to accomodate more teams if necessary, because it is more of a challenge and the depth of AFL player lists are more than adequate.

A team's structure, as well as their quality as individuals, is an important element to a successful team in this game. Therefore, there will be a need to draft for position to an extent, particularly acquiring specialist role players.

 

[Alex99]

You need to inform everyone of a potential cut of point where participants can sign on to play as these sort of games can and usually do drag on for a few weeks.

Give it a few days so everyone can have an opportunity to play if they like and then get this game started KF

 

[KUNG FU]

Fair point.

Last day to sign up will be Wednesday by midnight.

Then I'm going to put the names in a hat for the draft order. Sound good?

If i'm not first then its rigged . Sounds good to me.

To be honest, the pressure of the first pick is too much for my liking!

 

[KUNG FU]

Well, there hasn't been any new sign ups, so I'm gonna bring the deadline forward 9 hours. I've drawn the draft order randomnly from a hat. If anyone else wants to join, assuming we haven't completed the first round, I'll add them to the end.

At least when you have your pick you don't have to worry whether your next choice is going to be taken by someone else!

 

[Dandy_GO]

So we're basically choosing any player we want from any club (or those listed in the drafts), provided they've not already been chosen? Are we starting immediately?
