I know this wont help people much for our draft given its a keeper league, but doing a mock draft league as practice for my other one.

If anyone wants to join its a public league called boobs ahoy with draft on Sunday 6th Mar at 7:30pm.

Feel free to jump in.

Who's the Nathan fella?

Confused mate sorry?
The league will have random people, as well as a couple of my mates.

All just for fun and draft practice.

It does mean, however, that you will get a random draft order pick, as I will be putting myself and my 2 mates where we are drafting for real.

Can you put me in mine? Or is that the same as one already set?

There's a bloke called Nathan in the league.

Well depends, wheres your draft position?

You got another league you need to practice for.

Also looks like monday night rather than sunday. Still available?

Oh, yeah this isnt for our league.
The draft will be all players too.

Sorry to keep buzzing the thread about this one, but figured a couple of you guys would be keen.

Yep fine for me. I'm pick 6.

 

[Mego Red]

Hey - it's telling me I can't nominate keepers? Anyone else having that problem?

 

[Mego Red]

Wait - wrong link.

 

[DangerSloane]

Yep fine for me. I'm pick 6.

That works, thats not one of the guys doing it.

I think 2, 3 and 10 are definitely out.

 

[azza77]

Houston need to get in and select your keepers sometime soon buddy

 

[Vantz]

There was an assumption we could trade pre draft. No trades can be made until after the draft.

 

[Mego Red]

It might be good to document those trades, though so they can be easily processed (assuming people still want them to happen).

Commissioner - that's where you earn your big bucks.

 

[azza77]

Trades can't be done in-between when keepers have been selected and confirmed by commissioner, and the squad sizes sit at 16 (prior tot he draft?)

I thought they could be....? If not, thats kind of stupid. Would very much need to be documented in here

I thought the commissioner has the ability to assign players to teams, so trades can be done, just not by each team if that makes sense.

 

[Vantz]

We can trade on paper and process once the draft is complete correct however it needs to be a keeper for a keeper. In your 16 and opponents 16. Otherwise it will not be completed.

Why does that need to be a rule?

 

[Vantz]

Why does that need to be a rule?

It's not a rule, it is the reality of the limitations of the game. Technically no trades can occur until your 2016 list is created.

Edit. I can trade Keeper 16 pre draft, through a bit of a complicated trick in the game. But they have to be top 16 for top 16. You will need to tell me who you want out of your 16 if it is not for a top 16 player.

So I think I can do Azza and Dangersloane trade.

 

[Vantz]

Okay so this is who we are waiting on.
Kristof - Cut 2
hendo8888 - Cut 3
azza77 - Select 1
Houston - Select 16

Everyone else has selected 16 keepers correctly.

 

[Vantz]

Provisional 16 squads have been updated onto the website, you can view here:
http://ultimate-footy2.theage.com.au/577600/draft/results

Those who have more or less than 16 have just been adjusted based on list order. If you are one of these teams just notify me or azza of any changes.

I've processed the Azza & DS trade - Laird for Ziebell - Vantz & Knobby Duryea for Leuenberger

 

[hendo8888]

Swap Henderson for Crouch. Haven't yet decided on the Pavlich spot yet. Probably leaning towards Waite.

 

[Mego Red]

Just to confirm - can we do a trade of players pre-draft, if one of the players ends up NOT being a keeper?

Effectively that player would remain on your list as it stands, so it would be a 2:1 trade. We are only updating the Top 16 not the whole list.

In essence I have an ability to fill a pick selection in anyones side. So you are trading for a player who fits within your 16.

 

[azza77]

Jeez I have some interesting trades in the pipeline which makes selecting my 16 oh so very hard. Already enjoying this keeper game mode a lot better. Seems to be a lot more activity.
