Teams to be lodged in UF and this thread with Emergencies in order so Admin can make the required adjustments if necessary as per this rule so you can see the importance of order:
7.4 Emergency Scoring[/b]
Emergencies will play should a starting member of your team not play, but with conditions.
     7.4a. If a player on the interchange is the same position as the player that pulled out, he will be moved into that position. The extra interchange spot will be filled by your FIRST preference listed emergency.
     7.4b. If a player on the interchange is NOT of the same position, then option to replace the player who pulled out moves to your emergencies.
     7.4c. Emergencies can only replace players in the SAME position for full points. If emergency used OOP than 1/2 points will apply.
     7.4d. If an emergency is a Dual Position Player, he can be called into either position (i.e. if he is a Fwd/Mid, he can play as either a forward or mid)
     7.4g. If you have more than 4 players in your starting 15 not playing, the highest value (determined by your draft
selection) squad member from the rest of your team will play, but only a QUARTER (rounded up) of the score will count. I.e if Alan Toovey is the highest remaining squad member, and he scores 53, only 1/4 points will count towards your final score.
     7.4h If a starting player has less than 20% TOG then the score from the emergency in the same position will apply.
     7.4i If none of your emergencies can cover a non starting player in the exact position, then the first available playing emergency (not used elsewhere) will be substituted into the position for 1/2points OOP.

Draw for Rd 1 which is the rivalry round with no Home Ground Advantage,

Liverpool Rams v Oxford Lions
Grope Lane Giants v Winchester Werewolves
Bradford Badgers v Wrexham Knights
Manchester Magic v Hastings Hurricanes
Nottingham Hoods v Staines Steins
Hebden Bridge Hedgehogs v Birmingham Dragons
