For those that dont know about this, it is a comp to test your trading skills and this will be the 4th year in succession that TS has run it.

Everyone in the comp starts with exactly the same team and then after the end of the first full lockout, everyone can go nuts, trading as they wish... Until we are left with 1 team at the end who has managed to score more points than all the others who started with the same team.

So far this season, we only have 9 players in it, which is far less than the other years we've run this.
If you want to join in the fun, all you need to do is set up a new SuperCoach account (under an alternative email address to your own) and join the TS trading games group.

This is the team you will need to initially set up:
color: #000000;]DEF: Mitchell, Shaw, Hurn, DSwallow, Guthrie, McDonald, Laidler, Georgiou

color: #000000;]MID: Ablett, Rockliff, Liberatore, Beams, Thomas, Tyson, Michie, Polec, Ellis, Dunstan

color: #000000;]RUC: Lobbe, Sandi, Derickx, Thurlow

color: #000000;]FWD: Dangerfield, Martin, Dixon, Caddy, Daniher, JKH, Rohan, Impey.
color: #000000;]


]*Please note... you must start with the same players as everyone, but each coach is free to select which of those players starts on the bench and is Cap, VC, Emergencies etc.

At this stage, if you have selected the right players, you will be left with $22,000 spare cash in the bank.

Then, when the teams are announced on Thursday, we will be assessing our rookie choices, so please make sure to ensure you check into the forum thread on Friday to find out the final team (I will also hopefully get another thread going on the main page here, on thursday night).

Our final team for week1 will be locked in at Midnight AEDT on Thursday night!
Then after the weekend, we will be assessing any changes to the initial team that are needed for week2.


********* PLEASE, if you enter this comp, it is really important that you make sure you have the same round 1 team as everyone else - that is the whole point of the game, but the onus is on each individual to make this happen.
