if libraries don't open til 9am, then I'd be taking his pick tonight. And we'd then be a chance to get thru 13 picks today and Holky would be 1st cab off the rank tomorrow when he logs on.
once we've done these 20 rounds i hope whoever it was that did the last write up has a crack again. I enjoyed reading the alleged controversial picks or smokeys. maybe ill have a yarn to someone outside the FU as well and see if theyre keen to do an impartial write up? yay/nay?
I think TTT did Rds2-5 and Holky was going to put one together for Rds 6-10 I thought. But not real sure. The ole memory ain't what it used to be...
On a mate's computer so don't have my spreadsheet but I can do or collaborate and do 20-round review, and previews based on that.
I can't believe we are but 9 picks away from completing our first draft (I will post a completed team listing when all picks have been taken, please ensure you check your team in case their are any positional or player errors). When we started in December it looked like we had lost a licensee and that it would never happen. Even after our belated start in January there were times when I had my doubts as to whether we would ever complete our teams in time. I would like to take this opportunity to suggest that we amend the draft rules so that the future time limit is at most 8hrs. When checking the draft thread we can see that we have rarely had any selections that took more than 8hrs. I also think that if we cannot reach agreement on a super session after the NAB then we need to look at a 2hr time limit to ensure that all teams are complete in time. Fresh will obviously need some time to add the completed teams to his sheet (if that's what we are still doing) and everyone will need time to establish their first choice 19 for round 1. Anyway, I'm going to enjoy the break from drafting and go back to the pool!
There's 8 picks left to finalise the 1st ORFFU Draft. Can someone confirm for me the draft order for the 2nd Draft of 6 rounds. Am I correct in saying pick No1 goes to insider, followed by JPK, TTT all the way to Tylo at 18.......and then the 2nd Round starts with Tylo and reverses back to insider and so on til the 6 rounds are completed....

You are correct choppers
The bigger the gap between the end of the draft and round 1 the better for me. Even today I annoyingly found a formula issue that I hadn't noticed before. I'll obviously have some players input into the spreadsheet since we've finished the first draft but probably need a bit of time to ensure the final 6 players of each squad are all ok and to send it out. I guess worst case scenario (if there are mistakes in the file) that team submissions are posted on here in the forum prior to round 1 starting but I reckon we should be fine.
Online now boys. Busy night with work, basketball, Daddy duties and a family dinner. Pick will be in shortly. It wouldn't be right if my final selection for the first round of the inaugural draft was entered in a timely fashion now would it ;D ps. Agree with the consensus for draft round 2 - looking forward to a break and then to getting back into it mid pre-season comp (don't like giving banks shout outs - I've heard they do OK without our help)
good one, Mick......hahaha! you got me. I actually thought you were fair dinkum. obviously not. I think you speak with forked tongue. You still have til 8.21am to post your selection......

I'll look forward to Lisle kicking 6 of the best against Banchang ;D
@ EE - to clarify before you do up the next positional team sheets, there seems to be some confusion still on my future SC gun, Tom CurrEn (St. K) He is listed as D/F but should be down as M. I think there has been a mix up with him and Tom CurrAn (Nth). Cheers
@EE - Thanks for taking the time to write them up - great way to visualise the teams in all their glory
