    Hi all, we are running an in house Nines Fantasy comp again this year.  We are using the same successful format as last year that Milchy devised.  It made the Nine's even that bit more enjoyable Love


    1 Snake Draft over 48 hours;
    2 Nine unique players picked by each entrant;
    3 Points awarded for 4 and 5 point tries, including Finals;
    4 No positional or team restrictions, just the best 9 unique players you can muster;
    5 Winner receives exclusive forum bragging rights for all to see for the year via their profile description (how good is that!)


    Snake Draft rules:
    1 1 hour between picks from 1000 to 2200 AEST
    2 Picks also welcome outside those hours but amnesty on time cut off
    3 If you miss a pick window you can have that pick at the end of the Draft
    4 If you miss 2 or more pick windows you may be removed from the Draft and your picks re-pooled.
    5 You have the option of PMing your next picks to someone of your choosing



    Simple but exciting, pretty much like all of my ex's Very Happy

    The allowed pick time will be dependent on the number of entries, but all participating will need to be online every hour or two over Thursday and Friday (excluding beauty sleep of course).  The Draft will need to be completed by this Friday night; we are looking to start tomorrow night/Thursday morning.  Late team withdrawals/injuries will not be replaced (we all run the same odds of copping them, unless you are Bren, in which case you will be lucky to have a single healthy player by Midday Sunday).

    For those who have not been in a Draft/Snake Draft before, it is as easy as pie:

    All entrants pick 1 player in turn via the pre-designated Draft Order.  Once a player is picked that player is unavailable to any other team. Once all entrants have picked 1 player, the Draft Order reverses and each entrant picks 1 more player each. Once that is completed, then the sequence begins again. Once you have picked your players YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO ANYTHING ELSE OVER THE WEEKEND BAR ENJOY THE FOOTY and watch us compile your scores for you  Very Happy  

    All interested will need to register in this thread by 1800 AEST tomorrow (Wednesday 01/02/17).

    Just google random draft generator.

    Then try out every site in the serach results until you find one that gives Milchcow first pick.

    What, that's just the list of participants with B/L added. If it was the draw I would have made mention that it was, and entries are't even closed yet. Also, if I did come up as 1st pick I would redraw.

    Is Super Kenny Sio playing 9's? Could be some fair competition between myself and Filth over who selects him first!

    No you wouldn't, shut up. You're more trustworthy than 99% of posters here - if you come up first, you're first. I'll punch you.

    Closing off now lads, I reckon the 8 is a great number, it's what we had last year.  Are we right to start tonight?  Doesn't matter really though, start tonight and get the bulk out tomorrow.  Would like to set the rules:

    One hour between picks from 10:00 to 22:00 hours AEST (sorry Welshy but we know you allways send picks).
    Amnesty outside those hours but picks still welcome.
    PM a selection of picks to someone if you need to keep it flowing.
    Anyone who misses a pick can have their owed pick at the end of the Draft.
    Last year we had to remove someone, if someone misses more than 2 pick windows they may be removed and their players re-pooled without notice.


    Will leave the above for an hour so every can have a look and make recommendations.  

    Anything I have missed?

    After that time I will reveal the Draft Order and we can start.

    Good to go, mate.

    Could start whenever you're ready - the earlier the better.
