    [span style='color: #454545;]Hi Chop and JPK <div style='color: #454545;]
    <div style='color: #454545;]I'm not sure there is any real difference in the end between a 'trade' and an 'auction'. <div style='color: #454545;]
    <div style='color: #454545;]Both result in a trade of players/picks, it is just the process that differs - one is negotiated privately while the other plays out in public. <div style='color: #454545;]
    <div style='color: #454545;]Therefore, to limit the ability of coaches to offer deals in the public forum seems strange to me. It should be left up to the coach who is holding the auction to decide if one deal is superior to another, rather than tying their hands to a single lot. <div style='color: #454545;]
    <div style='color: #454545;]Given we're seeing less trades (and I suspect that trend will continue) I'm not sure we want to make things more difficult. <div style='color: #454545;]
    <div style='color: #454545;]However, I appreciate this is only my understanding/opinion of how things do/should work. If it's in the auction rules (currently on mobile so can't easily find them) or has been previously ruled on that this isn't allowed then I retract my bid. <div>

    I agree with Choppers, and I think we ruled on it last year - an Auction is bidding for the item listed, not a negotiation for other items to be included in the package ('item' used loosely!) Fresh - Not sure this is the best thread. Pretty sure there's a trading thread where you should list available players. If not, then we'll need to create one. Thanks, have set up a new thread with the post.

    This raises a dilemma for me because while I agree that Damo's bid is against the spirit of the auction thread, I also see it as a very good bid considering the circumstances. I want to consider that offer but I still want this to be a fair auction. Therefore I am going to modify the auction: [span style='font-size: 16px;]The new offer is Ryan Griffen AND Pick 44 and I'll extend the auction time to 21/10/2015 20:00 EDST

I'll keep the auction at Griffen because I'm sure modifying an auction is against at least a few of the auction rules. Plus, Coolgardie's offer is good as well... so after all that, the Griffen auction continues with Coolgardie having the highest bid: PSD 27 and MSD R1

    Obviously there's a little bit of a conflict with me 'enforcing' rules regarding the Griffen auction. Can someone else please confirm / deny my understanding of the rules, to allow Holky to achieve the best outcome for himself.

    I think it's pretty simple really, the item up for auction was Ryan Griffen, not Ryan Griffen & 44. There's nothing stopping coaches from posting players or picks or both that are available for trade, as Fresh has, and fielding offers for the player(s), the player +, etc.

    Hi all, the big Cheese here. As Choppers has posted these were the guidelines/rules set out previously. Good also to see that the Coach has reverted back to what an auction should be the original asset that was up for auction and on the market in its original form. Will be proposing that theabove should be put into the rules so that it's clear what an auction is. Yad ps Sorry it took so long to pop my head in regarding this matter, hell week at work.

However, I would question whether introducing that rule in future is the best option for the league. <div>
    I maintain that giving coaches flexibility in getting a deal done outweighs any of the negatives (of which I'm still not sure what they are) in allowing 'additional items' in this auction process.

    DamoH, the rules mentioned will be proposed so they could get up or not. I think the main thing was that the player (asset) was on the market in a particular form (i.e. player only) and to change that mid-way through is just not on. On the auction side of things, I don't think I've every been at or heard of an item being auctioned and then it was changed mid-way through (have heard of reverse auctions, just does my head in). Happy for Coaches to have an open trading on a thread where negotiations are transparent. Anyway, I just think that what you posted was a counter offer (i.e. a negotiation) not a bid and shouldneverbe accepted in a regular style auction especially when the asset (player) is on the market. Cheers Yad
