    Hey all, I have had network issues at work this morning and have just gained net access.

    I will take an early lunch break to catch up on who has been taken in the last 16 or so picks, then text @ViQBoZ once my pick is made.

    bit like a mankad - not ideal, controversial, possibly poor sportsmanship but is within the rules

    We changed the application of that, rather informally in this thread, the pick would actually be NDS at 12:15

    TTH is pushing the boundaries. We are now into the 18th hour.

    earlier in this thread. It was very informal. I proposed 18 hours or 10-12 hours. there was support for both 18 hours, and some for less too, but i dont recall there was any dissent (there may have been, but I dont remember). I presumed, as did several others it seems, that we were moving forward with a 18 hour limit. Maybe it was wrong to make that assumption, because obviously not everyone was on the same page if you are asking the question.

    I was always under the impression that the timer didn't count between midnight and 8 am

    that's the FU rules, but I seem to recall it was stated that wasn't the case for the FFF? moot point now anyway with the pick taken I guess

    I understood it to be as read, if it didn't include those hours I'd want it a hell of a lot shorter going forward :)

    It was discussed. But discussion doesn't mean a rule has changed.

    fair enough... we may as well go through a process then... I'll post something in the rules thread.

    Look at writing in stone for future drafts, sure but with ~75% of the draft done I don't think there's really any imperative here? We're going to finish well before the NAB Challenge, and well over a month before the footy actually starts.

    I find it strange that some top up players were selected before these two. Can't see them dropping that much in average this year so surely Best XV if 2016 is your year.

    I reckon Simpkin will perform well enough to earn future contracts. Going a bit out on a limb, but worth a shot.
