    I don’t understand. In NBA fantasy I can pick free agents up whenever I want... but you’re saying there’s a waiver list? Do you have to request to trade in a free agent but if another player is higher on the waiver list than you and they want that player they can take him instead of you but sacrificing their top waiver status?

    correct, its in place to stop early birds taking all best options. After RFA period they all become free agents

    Yes you can its enters a RFA (restricted free agent) period of a day or so where in the event of same player being requested the highest waiver priority gets the player.

    If no one else goes for same player, you get him and the player you dump becomes a RFA himself.

    After this period everyone becomes free agents until the next week and can be picked up freely until lockout

    In the event you pick up a RFA you drop to the bottom of the waiver list

    Okay, cool. That makes sense. I like the concept, so it'd stop one from making a "why not" type of trade like a Josh Jackson for some other similar plodder. I'm guessing that keeping, or getting a nice position in that waiver list is something to aim for, if possible.

    You can also make multiple requests and prioritise them.

    A high waiver ranking is a good thing, just first dibs on a any player after a round of games essentially, still have to make a guess on their output and if their score was a one off etc

    I have had some crackers over the years

    Big Angus and was available in the CTR Embarassed
    Rein in his big minute games and was going around 55+ average

    Seems like there's plenty of caveats to this draft game, I'm sure we'll all get the gist once up and running, but those initially in the know obviously have a bit of a jump on the rest. Looks like it's gonna be a nice little competition to look forward to, as a side to the main competition 👍

    Is chumps likely to take his turn soon, or is it getting too late over there now. Not sure of the time difference, it's 12:40 pm over here now. I'm next pick, and don't want to hold up anyone that maybe staying up late over there

    It's 12pm most likely where he is so I'd say it'd be night time for you when he picks next. I can only guess though.

    I vote we disband L3 and look for one extra to come in and draft with us. This is ridiculous and I'm not sure I have the patience

    Not necessarily, though. Depends how evil you are. As I understand it you could trade out Poppy McFarlane from your reserves for Cameron Smith, just to keep him out of everyone else's team?

    Probably not a strategy I'd adopt, because I like kittens and stuff, but it could happen if you were at the top of the waiver list?

    Haha, you love it. You'll be in 73 Drafts by the time the season kicks off, lol.

    Drafting with a bunch of retards with a standard player list by the looks, just taking the highest averaging players and bypassing positional difficulty

    Already engraved my name on the league 1 trophy. Don't need to look at the other peasants teams, especially that Kent from Europe.
