    I've gone through most of the important threads and tidied up the important posts. ie the rules thread and this one have had all duplicated posts removed. Some posts still contain formatting from the old site which is visible in here, but that can just be dealt with if need be.

    Despite my obsession with picking up Bomber players I don't think I am one of the teams affected but I wouldn't mind throwing out there that teams impacted get an extra pick at the end of PSD draft for each player they lose. The player drafted would be automatically delisted at the end of this season with the suspended Bomber replacing him.

    Can't really think of a reason why but I think it is different to LTI's so deserves different treatment

    I think that seems fair to have an extra pick but should it be after all other picks? Or your next available pick? I'll lean towards the second option as your most likely losing a starting player

    As someone who's just lost one of their best midfielders (Heppell) and my (admittedly slim) premiership chance I'm cursing Hird at the moment.

    However, I think it's analogous to a LTI. I can choose to hold a non-playing Heppell for 2016 or drop him from my list for a replacement.

    If this was announced mid-season it might be different, but we've got the trade period and draft to adjust our squads as we see fit.

    I have 3 players (Hurley, Myers & Ryder) and I am of the opinion that I either delist them and go to the draft, trade them or retain them; I'll hold at least 2 of them. I think if we want to retain them the we suck it up and deal with it. No special rules for this one, just pretend the affected players have all done their ACL's and won't play until 2017!

    E-E posted......."I have 3 players (Hurley, Myers & Ryder) and I am of the opinion that I either delist them and go to the draft, trade them or retain them"..........................my sentiments exactly........I'm sorry but this sorry affair took place in 2012, and everyone should have been aware of the possible consequences sometime down the track, and its now 2016, and it's finally happened, so there's been plenty of time to adjust. I'm no example of positive thinking here, nor am I patting myself on the back, but I got rid of Crameri and Monfries, thinking this exact result may happen......admittedly a couple of years later than I thought BUT.......anyway, I'm one of the 5 so far who voted option 4.
