No need to randomize Len, I'll take the burden of the first pick ((Which if I did have that pick, please all know I will NOT be making my pick at 2am in the morning - 9 hours from now- you'll just have to wait until I've had my beauty sleep))

One area I am unsure of Len - is there a FA pool after the draft that we can draw on to change our team or is it a strict keeper league where what ever you draft you keep all season?

It's keeper in that you keep them as long as you want, the waiver system is in place for the FA pool, and subject to no-one else with a higher waiver entitlement wanting the same player you can swap as you go.

Might need some more explanation of waiver system there I think, not something I've used before.

Might need some more explanation of waiver system there I think, not something I've used before. For sure, below is a edited C&P from the SC site, but I've adjusted the some of the terms to suit our settings, and there are a couple of variables I am not sure on. Typically, once a waiver enabled draft is complete the waiver period starts immediately for a specified duration, ours waiver duration is 2 days, but I can't see if it starts immediately. I am also not sure how end of season works, suspect it will either end and we can't play again till the league is regenerated next year, or we can trade through to a certain date, if I can't find the answer I'll ask them. Essentially the Free Agent pool has two status's, in and out of waiver, I am fairly sure the entire FA pool will be under waiver for 2 days after the draft, then it's as they are dropped (below explains that better). The Waiver list is a priority list, you can see this on the RH side of the Trade Centre and this one appears to be in reverse draft order to me. As you select a player via waiver you drop to the bottom of the list and everyone else moves up one so it's a cycling priority. TRADES CENTRE - TRADE POOL & WAIVER LIST TAB <ul style='margin-top: 0cm; list-style-type: disc;] <li>The Trade Centre'sTrade Pool & Waiver Listpanel provides you with information and management options for allrecently dropped players by other teamswho are subject to Waiver trading rules or about to become Free Agents.</li> <li>The Waiver List provides a complete listing ofdroppedplayers who are in the Waiver pool, including information on any trade claims made by other teams.

The trade will only be completed depending on your priority order (and whether a team with a higher priority has also made a claim for that particular player) and after the time set in your league, in which a player must remain available in the Waiver pool (i.e. the waiver period set for your league is 2 days, the player remains under Waiver for the full 48 hour period to allow other teams in your league to make a trade claim - the trade will occur 48 hours after the player was dropped into the Waiver pool).</li> <li>If no claim is made on a player during the set Waiver period for your League, they become a Free Agent at the end of their Waiver period and may be picked up by any team in your League on a first-come basis.</li> <li>You'll also be able to see the most frequently dropped and picked up players in your league here.</li> </ul> TRADES CENTRE <ul style='margin-top: 0cm; list-style-type: disc;] <li>TheTrades Centreis where you can manage any type of trade that you'd like to make (dependant on your league's settings).

It is up to the Coach of that team to then accept or reject your trade offer. If accepted,the trade is then subject to approval, coaches will get the opportunity to place a veto vote to block the trade from happening. Remember, you can cancel any trade offer before it is accepted or approved by the other coach.</li> </ul>
I think I follow that - not what I was expecting. Second point that comes up as a result of Jason's and Len's replies. This comp is 2015 only - it is not running next year and onwards.
