2016 Live Fantasy Draft

I'm more concerned about ongoing. What do I have to do each week once I have my 25 players. Is there swaps or additional drafts ? Or do I just need to put 17 on the park each week ? What happens if I don't have 17 fit players ? What happens on bye rounds ?

In fantasy I don't bye plan, maybe the week before I attempt to get 17 players on the park.

Being head to head I'd assume bye rds would be byes. As for ongoing you can trade if you want to or pick up undrafted players. I find the nrl comps easier to manage as your watching most to all of the games anyway.

I'm a Tiger's fan I'm use to losing.

Fuck it - I'm in

That's the spirit. How many are we up to now?

Well unless you blokes are posting the picks live on the forum it looks like Im out.

Is this going to be the only draft done for fantasy by the forum?

I wouldn't think so Beast. Good way to have a few beers together though

Well if I lived in Sydney I could be the DD because I dont drink beer. Also did you miss my post regarding that carton in the other thread?

I saw it and forgot about it. We do an uncle dans voucher or I'm happy for SI to be the middle man and bring it down.

Easy done. Ill PM you.

I offered Honeysett a carton of XXXX after he put me onto a couple of betting tips but he didnt say much, I am assuming he refuses to drink a QLD beer

I think you should personally deliver it on draft day

I don't drink swill. It's not so much that it comes from QLD it's the fact it is closer to water than beer.

Would love to get in on the draft but would need someone to manage my team in the middle of the season for a few months. Based between Sydney and Newcastle so happy to do either

I thought since the majority of posters are located in NSW the draft was in Sydney?

i assume it will be something like;

Sydney boys meet up somewhere and drive the 2 hours up to Newcastle to whatever pub Shanbon & Clack Bocks have organised.
Have a feed before drinking too much.

Brisbane boys do the same up there.

Brisbane and Sydney (Newcastle) locations should have a laptop with internet connection and both groups can contact each other on Skype or Yahoo.
Each coach can have a list of ALL players and a pen ( to cross out selected players ).

The draft can begin around 8pm and be all done by 10pm, then everyone will be home in bed by just after midnight !!

This will only be an 'on paper' draft and a night will have to be arranged to do the actual draft on NRL Fantasy site, but you can only pick the same players you picked during the 'paper' draft ( even if you got too drunk and selected George Rose or Tim Simona)

Only coaches who actually turn up to the piss-up will be allowed to enter because half the fun will be getting drunk and making stupid selections

How does all that sound ? Did i forget anything ?

What's yahoo?

Yes that sounds pretty good to me. Especially if the meet is in Newcastle.

Also can I point out Ultimate League has a feature that allows the League Commissioner allocate all the picks. This means it won't get messed up. Not sure if NRL Fantasy has the same.
