Another bye round with Collingwood and Sydney having the bye,
Best 15 from the 20 players named including the 5 emergencies will count.
This is how lodgement will take place in AF Draft. It will be prudent to exclude Pies and Swans from the 20 players,
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 this Lodgement thread, Ensure in AF draft you nominate emergency by placing E on the emergencies.
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.
Captain and VC will be locked at bounce Essendon Port game Thursday Night.You are now required to nominate Captain and VC in the thread
Rolling lock out will apply till 1st Saturday game Melbourne v Gold Coast
If no teams are lodged in this thread I will take the AF team as team for that round 1 including the emergency order.
To assist Admin when you make changes to your team can you ensure that you also do in AF Draft as this year I do not have the option of editing teams once a player has played which causes a few extra issues as AF does not highlight any player who as replaced a player. In previous years the score has been highlighted which helped this identification.
Any questions on these bye rounds please ask.
Draw for Rd 3 with first named Team having the home advantage. Note for bye rounds HGA will be applied to the lowest of the 15 scoring players.
