The AFL have extended the dead-line CLUBS will have an extra 10 days to make a call on their rookie list decisions after the AFL extended its deadline for the pre-season supplemental selection period (SSP). The deadline was set for February 20, but after a strong push from clubs that has been moved back until Monday, March 2.
Well, that completely f*cks it for us. As I said, the AFL is out to damage the integrity of the 'FU. They're scared of us, and doing everything in their scheduling power to ruin us!
Based on a post above mentioning a 13 February start and feedback since from @Len I would be doubtful. The last 2 seasons have been late Feb, which means the FU have worked around things fine in previous seasons so hopefully no biggie either way this season.
We are starting the draft today, yes. Any more last minute trades, delistments, or other discussion points?
@JPK will my late delistment of Stone be accepted? I don't mind either way but if no, I'll add him back to my team. If yes, I'll need a 3rd pick (#75) added to the draft
Happy to not be a DICKtator and accept the delistment - I don't think Len would have taken him with pick 1 had he been available, so it doesn't effect anything. We'll activate pick 75, because that's fair.
Apologies for the delay guys - been sleeping all afternoon. Heading into work night shift now. Pick will be in overnight.
