It was brought up in the 2016 discussion thread that we should look at moving the MSD forward this year, because it is later in the year (byes are rounds 13-14-15). Please continue all further discussion on this matter here, in this thread, and also vote on your preferred timing for the 2016 MSD. I'll create a separate thread and poll for nominated dates, so please post nominations in this thread (asap - the sooner we decide, if we decide to move it, the better organised we can all be!) I'll create a separate thread to handle the trading issue that was also brought up.
Voted I think the MSD and accompanying trade period should stay within the bye period; it is unfortunate that the byes are later this year but such is life. It will also give us a few more weeks of exposed form before we draft. If the majority want it moved then so be it; probably doesn't affect me that much as I'm currently looking at pick 29 as my first selection
In this poll we have 16 cast votes, but I can only count 13 coaches who have indicated that they've voted. Either way we're short of everyone voting (although voting was the best part of compulsory, especially when it concerned rules and rule changes), and may have had some non-FU people vote. Before I call this poll closed, I'd like to give the final few coaches until lockout this weekend (round 10) to have their say. Please get to voting if you haven't already.
Pretty clear here - MSD is during the byes, hence the reason I didn't try to push things along quicker.
