Mmmm.. yeah.. well my overall opinion is what's good for one is good for all. But to keep the peace.. whatever works is fine with me.

My only "plea" I 'spose (but in the end I don't really care) is that if I end up with a rookie, that's cool, but I won't be able to do much with 'em as I'm in Vic and hear/know hardly anything about the SANFL.

But in the end, if we all have our little wants and needs it'll make the whole process 10x more difficult and painful than it needs to be. I just say draw 'em out of a hat and who you get is who you get. No favourites, all even.

It's up to Scott. Whatever is easier for you mate, just do that.

[edit] KD's just changed her post so yeah... never mind :p

That's ok. You know I'll just do my thing anyway. And if, somehow, the man stays... well you know I'll just ignore all you people and be the KoulaGirl anyway.

Complete with katana. So beware.

Good work KD! This has taken off more than I thought it would.

Im thinking of doing two draws to appease any conflict and also to make it more fun for everyone.

First there will be the pick out of the hat as I first suggested. This will be your 'PROJECT' player. Its your chance to talk this player up during the year, get the dirt on him and even stalk him if you like! When there are questions to be asked about a certain player in the team you will be the one with all the answers. (It would also be good if under your name you list your project player eg. Project Ackland).

Secondly there will be the draft. Im not sure how I will work on the order, maybe another hat pick. Then again you could bribe me, Im open to offers! :D I don't think there should be a trade after the draft, it only makes the draft pointless. This will be your second project player but I don't think there should be as much importance placed on this, its just a bit of fun really.

If your name hasn't been listed by KD please add your name to this thread. Off the top of my head I can only think of Chris17, Ford Fairlane and Tredders16 (although some may have changed their name). Its hard to keep track sometimes.

So because there are two pickings (from the hat) every player gets picked twice, as a Project Player and a second Project Player?

What I mean is, every poster ends up with two players, i.e.

sog35
Project: Thurstans
Brett Montgomery

Porthos
Project: Spaanderman
Toby Thurstans

Am I on the right track? 'Cause we've got 38 posters and at the completion of all drafts we're allowed to have a maximum of 40 players (including rookies).

I'm confused. :confused:

I was hoping someone else would explain but I guess I may as well since nobody else seems to want to.

In the Llane Spaanderman thread we were discussing player sponsorship and we came to the conclusion it would cost a fair bit for this board to sponsor a player, what with all the fiddly extras and things like that. So a concept was raised about a 'buddy system', whereby once we have a full list, Scott will go through the list of posters on this board and pick a player out of a hat, assigning a player to a particular poster. I came up with the idea of something along the lines of father/son picks (re-named favourite/fan picks) but then I scrapped the idea seeing as no one should have an unfair advangtage over anyone else.

Like Scott pointed out, if someone comes onto this board inquiring or bagging your player, you're the one who has to talk him up or jump to his defence. Get the dirt on him, rate his performances, stalk him if you want.

Porthos, any chance we could sticky this? [edit] Thanks.

Sorry to rain on your parade, but his middle name is Jed :p Good theory though!
There was an old man, his name was Jed.
A poor mountain man, barely kept his family fed.
And then one day he was shooting at some food
When up through the ground come a-bumbling crude.


Reckon we might make that his theme song?

You are correct KD, everyone gets 2 players (or there abouts) but project player 1 counts most of all.

The draft for project player 2 was only thrown in for a bit of fun to stop the boredom as we get towards Christmas.

Rightio, I get you now. :)

Does each project player get his own theme song? ;)
