British 15's - Discussion thread

[MTTY]

I asked earlier in one of the threads if people were fine with a cap (which i suggested one) but only had limited response. Forgot to post it here, so i'll find it and post here now.  :)

Thanks Mtty been trying to find it as well where you had 39 from this draft then 4 and then 3 from memory but have not been able to.  Must be in the actual draft pages but 190 pages a bit much to trawl through.

Draft em all!

Draft em all!

Agreed.

[Spinking]

I'd prefer a cap. Happy to go along with the crowd though...

[Justin Bieber]

Draft em all!

[MTTY]

46 all up

With -

39 drafted in first draft

4 in the National Draft

3 in the Rookie draft

Are others happy with that?


I'll start a poll.

Thanks MTTY. Limits squads to 46.

Just one question do all unselected players become eligible for National Draft as well.

Yes they will as well as the rookie draft, if that option is favoured as the majority.

Just a suggestion MTTY, leave the national draft picks just for the national draft players. Leftover afl players for the rookie draft.

^Yep. No AFL leftovers in National draft.

this.

you also have to cap squads surely/ otherwise season after season the lists just grow and grow? makes no sense and does not mirror the AFL teams list rules.

i think as per your other thread MTTY the view there seemed to be that a cap on the squads was best.

i also think that if you draft a player in this draft and they retire you do not get extra picks for it you just top up your list in future drafts.

where in future drafts due to the squad being capped you will have to delist players to add new draftees to your squd, if you have a player retire then that's just one less you need to delist come the next seasons nationel / preseason drafts.

likewise if you have a full squad you are happy with come pre season draft and DO NOT want to delist any of them you can just PASS in the pre season draft as ou don't want to replace any players in your existing "capped squad".

just my 2c

My opinion for what it is worth that if any of our players are delisted we get compensatory picks at the conclusion of all drafts from players remaining after the Rookie/Pre Season Draft.

Id probably agree with this.  Maybe additional picks at the end of the pre - season draft to take your squad to the desired numbers

[Spinking]

Just a thought - May well have been suggested before so apologies if it has:

We already have the:

World 15s - WXV
Euro 15s - EXV

and will potentially have the:

Asian 15s - AXV (I assume)

Just wondering if having this officially called the English 15s might be confusing - creates a second EXV or maybe EnXV

Would it be better to call it the British 15s, UK 15s, Crown 15s, or something like that?

Not complaining or anything, just a suggestion for clarity...
