    I'm pretty-sure everyone knew who you were going to pick anyway. That one seemed like the most foregone of foregone conclusions.

    Fortunately this hasn't really effected anything with Tomster, because its highly doubtful he would have traded up to pick 1, so now we can just wait... patiently....

    I'm sure this was raised the last time we couldnt get in contact with a coach but I'm happy for admin to have a list of every coaches mobile and email so this doesnt happen again.

    With the current goings on @Tomster may just be indisposed.

    No huge rush as yet, but what kind of plan do we put in place?

    Is there a coach from another ORFF league that could maybe step in on an interim basis? Or do we look at something else.

    @JPK @insider @choppers @Tylo @ddsaints @bryzza @HOLKY @fresh @Tomster @DamoH @tyze1 @ron swanson @YAD69 @wrightbrendan @Mick @Batfink @martyg

    I figured that whilst we pause I could do some housekeeping.

    I’ve reviewed everyone’s list, and assuming they are all up to date, have greyed out the picks that I believe are dead.

    Can everyone please check to ensure I haven’t missed anything :thumbsu:

    I have 53 active picks for the PSD, with some clubs fulfilling a couple, if not all, of their mandatory list changes via trade.

    Cheers.

    I had made an error with Blanchetown.

    There are now 56 picks in total being taken in the PSD.

    So I think we should continue with the draft. Maybe a couple of us could look at his team and propose a player to pick? I would hope that if I was taken offline for a month or so that you guys would have picked number 1 for me and de-listed the same guys (or close to) for me. If we make a gentlemen's agreement that none of us pick up any of his delisted players, then when/if he does come back he can get them back in the MSD if he really wants... Just a thought!

    So I've put on my Deputy Commish hat. It's pretty dusty as I don't need to do much given the tight ship @JPK runs, but since he's dealing with the joys (ha!) of new fatherhood I figured I might have to earn that six figure salary that the FU pays me.

    So, with that in mind, @That KI Guy has kindly volunteered to help with Gisborne's draft assuming @Tomster remains MIA.

    EDIT: Hore and Gray will be de-listed, allowing 3 active picks for Gisborne.

    We'll give Tomster a few more days to show, and if he does the draft can recommence, but otherwise the draft will start with KI Guy taking pick 2 from 0800 AEDT Friday 12 February. Standard time restrictions will apply from this date - i.e. 12 hours to take a pick, with an 8 hour grace period from midnight to 8am.

    Cheers

    Do we delist Marty hore for him? Surely he would’ve been culled?

    Not sure what picks GG potentially has but I’d be inclined to dump Hore and Gray to give them 3 picks in the draft.
    Not sure if there’s been any player movement for GG this season but understand there’s some min movement rule in play. Makes sense to get some of these moves out of way in lead to PSD.

    GG originally had 2 20 44 56 74 and 92.......Pittard retired which put 2 into play.
    If the de-listment rules are waived this time, which I agree with in this special case, and you de-list Gray and Hore, which I also agree with, then that would put 20 and 44 into play.

    Sounds like a plan guys... There are a couple more that could be delisted, but those were the main 2!

    I agree too. He would have delisted some players prior to the draft. Happy for @That KI Guy to make a call.

    I also like @fresh 's call on no one picking up the discards in case he wanted them.

    yeah do it. I’ll adjust the team-side, @eagle_eyed you adjust your fancy grey text in the draft thread.
    Tomster has 3 live picks

    Good point re: the minimum team changes. Given that we'll delist Hore and Gray and Gisborne can take 3 picks. I've amended my OP.
