With 2nd year under AF Draft they are now allowing 2 flex players which will be our former 2 Utilities,
So this will be the AF Lodgements
Def: x,x,x,x
Mid: x,x,x,x
Ruck: x
Fwds: x,x,x,x
Flex: x,x (Can be any position)
Emer: D,M.R.F.Flex This is standard for each position but should you wish to not name 1 emergency for each position you can specify in the Round lodgement Fee,
In AF you can shuffle your emergencies to desired preferences as for non players for any reason this process will apply if any of Flex player can cover the position they will move to that position and the first available emergency will go to flex. To ensure correctness it may appropriate to list emergency order in the thread.
OOP Should you wish to as per rules then you will need to specify that in the team thread for that Round.
If no teams are lodged in Round thread I will take the AF team as team for that round.
Bye Processes
Due to the issues with postponing/rescheduling 2 games from Rd 0 there will be no Rd 0 scores added.
For early byes and mid season byes:
Process will be I will adjust score to take the best 15 scores form the team lodgement plus the 5 emergencies. For the bye rounds you can nominate 5 emergencies in any position but must be recorded in the thread as AF will not allow more than one position for emergency,
Round 1 thread will be up in the next few days.
So best 15 out of the 20? Some teams won't be able to field 20 in the later byes especially.
I think leave the later byes as they were, and maybe best 12 for the early ones given the GC/Ess situation.
Have to be consistent for the byes in AF If all happy can make best 15 best 12 for byes, Remember list sizes have been increased to 54 so think everyone should have at least 20 available players,
I think it is ridiculous that teams can't field 15 players - they have a 54 player squad. Just name your 15 plus 5 emergencies
Hurricanes
Def: Salem, Stewart, Barrass, Perryman
Mid: Laird (EVC), Andrew Brayshaw (VC), Parish, Neale (C)
Ruck: Darcy Cameron
Fwd: Mitch Owens, Treacy, Fyfe, Billings
Int: Dangerfield, Miller
Emg: Acres, Weitering, TJLynch, Hugo Garcia
Dunno whats happening but this is my team throughout these byes unless otherwise specified
For the byes will be best 15 from the 20 players nominated including 5 emergencies,
