Yeah like Coniglio, Tyson, Mitchell and Longer will be household names in 4-5 years... If you're getting 5 of the best of these each year it does outweight it a bit...

what do you mean getting 5 a year? your 1st and 2nd pick will be good but 3 4 5 are normally rubbish

Hird came from pick 73, Swan from the mid-40's and Ablett around there too. There are good players late in the draft ;)
What I mean though is that you'll get the best picks each round and thus 5 better players than everyone else if you pick right.

Seeing as its a superdraft it might not be a bad idea to have two expansion clubs?

Swan was actually 58

Yeah the new teams will be extremely light on for a few years. Do you think people will stay interested?

You get my point though, right?

I think they will.

With the two expansion teams we could have something like

Each team must choose 3 players to be restricted.

The new teams get to take any un-restricted player from another club (max of 1 player taken from each team by both expansion clubs together)

Also the expansion clubs are only allowed to pick up three players like this AND from those three they are allowed no more than one from each position.

After that we determine the draft orders whereby they should get a number of early picks.

Sounds interesting MT. If that was to happen I may be interested in stepping forward as a head coach. The Luxembourg Lemurs are looking for an EXV license ;)

Only thing i recommend is that there is a timeslot for trading, so it doesn't go on forever like this one did. ::) Whether it's 1 week or 5 weeks i don't mind, but it needs a timeslot where nothing else happens during that time. :D

Other than that i'm happy with whatever is suggested.

Whilst I'm more in favour of longer is better I tend to agree.

I propose a month... Thoughts?

Also we'd need to work out if it's WA TIME or EASTERN STATES TIME... Think there was some confusion last year.

Another question Holz, will the rookie draft picks automatically be our rookie list or can players from the rookie draft make up leftover spots on our senior list. Also, can we use our national draft picks on our rookie list or do they have to stay on the senior list.

Holz ?

Also whatlez, give Ellis a break he is doing okay for a 19 year old, he hasnt even missed a game yet, he will be hot property in years to come ;)
