i5s General Discussion

[ossie85]

Ok, so here's the general consensus I'm hearing...

- No trading

- Separate teams by percentage

- Each team gets to choose 3 players to keep from this year.

As far as next year goes, this is how I'd see it working (very much open for discussion):

- Split into 6 drafts like before (trying to even out total points as much as I can, except I'd remove players already on people's lists)

- The 16 teams that eliminated after the first 5 rounds get priority access to next year's draft. The lowest scoring team gets 1st pick at which draft they want, the second lowest scoring team gets 2nd pick (but if the 2nd team is in the same group as the 1st team, they can't go into the same draft), etc....

- The 8 teams eliminated after round 9 get the next round of preferences like above, again split on total points scored

- The 14 teams eliminated after round 15 get the next round of preferences...

- The 6 teams eliminated after round 20 get the next...

- The 2 teams eliminated after the prelims get the next....

- The runner-up gets the next choice

- The winner gets the last spot.

As far as the draft order goes, it won't be a snake draft. (i.e. the lowest scoring team gets first pick in each round of the draft)


?? I'm not really sure trading has a place in this game to be honest

really hate having 6 drafts cant we have like 3 drafts or something

[tbagrocks]

Looks like im getting the last spot next years draft :P welcome change for a tea Jaybag run team? :o

COME AT ME 8)

BTW I agree with the Oz, im not sure trading has its place either in this comp, we all have XVs and hundreds of teams each and we trade like rabbits. This comp is a little different, where you only keep three players and then we redraft everyone. I like it and it is something different to the XVs, a welcome change and a new strategy 8)

Nice one Oz!

Prefer the 6 & the time frame for this is a while, just imagine 3

 I don't think seeding should be based on lowest scoring, because teams will be different the following season.
    A fairer option is to seed teams on how well their 3 keepers go over the course of the entire year.

An example would be..  Team Blue has 3 guns, but the rest of their team is weak/or they get injuries etc.
   They get knocked out early and get seeded good the following season.  They still have their 3 guns and get a better draft position. They will be unfairly strong in 2016.

Team Red has 3 weaker keepers, but has decent depth in their squad and do better than expected.
     They still have their 3 weaker keepers, but are now getting a bad draft position for 2016.

  Remember all of your depth players will be changed/gone every year. The only constant is the Keepers and that is how I think the seeding should be decided.

Fair enough with the no trading I see where you guys are coming from and my team is going to win with it without trading do it doesn't bother me!

I would like less drafts as you would get a better range of players to choose from and I know it would take a while but we'd have double the time to do it.

That's just my opinion.

[Nige]

No trading I reckon. Just let it go for the first season and see how it works out.

So are we going to be keeping 3 players still?
Or will it depend on how next season will work

If there's no trading then I think you should only get to keep 1 player.

[JBs-Hawks]

Yea less drafts should make the drafts all more even and with more teams in each draft it would also make the snaking work better as the people who got pick 1 got a super premo and then 2 good premos with there next whereas the guys with 8/9 just got to good premos and then alot lesser quality with there 3rd pick.

Still think we should be able to trade, otherwise you can write off the weaker drafts already.

Seeding should be done on position finished, its not perfect but its as close to the AFL as we can simulate.

Coaches picked on the assumption they were keeping three players, so don't think that should change.

Spot on Os,
Sounds good.
