throwing it out there for thought and consideration early - we could fold both teams (MMM has been down the bottom for ever) and just have an 8 team league with 14 H&A games and a finals series. from there we could either - 1. reset starting again from scratch (it is probably about time) and draft all teams anew, or 2. hold a special 2 round draft before the draft and delistings, and pick up the cream from those 2 squads, then delist and draft as usual, or 3. just delist and draft as usual have a think about it and let me know as i posted in the other leagues that we are looking for a coach but have no takers @JoshyC @Len @snoz @Tylo @dmandrews @graeme @choppers @stripey
Thanks @JoshyC for the congratulations on Nomad Wildebeest winning the TS Addicts 2025 premiership. I will be back as the Nomad’s coach in 2026 as the club attempts to go back-to-back. On a points for basis there was only 0.87% separating the top ranked Nomad’s and the second ranked sNoZ in 2025.
My 2 bob's worth. If we can't get 2 Coaches for those 2 teams, then we dis-band both teams, but leave as is, in tsLeagues, until the de-listment deadline. That will allow all remaining 8 coaches time to visit those teams and see if there's any players that should be on their Draft wishlist. Then we hold the PSD as normal.
I quite like @choppers suggestion. MMM is a basket case which would struggle to find a coach. Whereas UNT is strong - hell, they finished fourth last year (with no coaching input?) and have a really solid core of players. I reckon something like as many as the first eight picks in the draft could be from ex UNT players. I can see a situation where we end up with nine coaches and therefore a problem as i assume we do not want one team having a bye every week (?). Needs more input from existing coaches.
