AFL Draft Based EPL Fantasy Game

[Master Q]

Also, what do people think of Rob's first pick? Seemed a bit strange to me, I would of taken Drogba or Malouda...

Fletch, I'm not sure how long the draft will take, if it takes too long I think we'll have to start next week...

The other thing to consider is how to keep a track of trades... Someone else might have that player. Unlimited trades may be awfully confusing!!

Maybe there should be a deadline then for the trades to occur before, like 12 hours before the first game, so that you don't have time to collate all the trades and pick a team for each week?

Sounds good. Will see many players changing teams on a weekly basis. Maybe put a 2 or 3 trade limit for each team for 1 week. Can't trade more than once with 1 team each week. Can only let go maybe 2 players at a max each week if they need to?

Especially with me having Drogba and Hart who I both don't really care for :P. I would prefer _____ and _____ instead ;).

I don't care about when it starts... I can see it will take a while. I'm more concerned about the trades during the week with people picking players that someone already has etc.

[Master Q]

Fletch all we have to do (I'll do it), is make a list of all the players picked in a Thread, people say who they are dropping who they are picking etc...

Trades and Free Agents Thread?

Fair enough Q. I know who I will be picking next, just need andrew to come on in the next hour and a half, cos I will be going away for a few hours and want to get my pick in before I go.

Yeah trades sounds fair. As soon as someone makes a trade they need to announce it on here so that others know that that person is off the transfer market and the other player can now be selected.

Yeah 2 subs sounds ok, exclude keepers from subs though. If they don't play they automatically get swapped

[Master Q]

Sounds Good To Me.

CF, If you want, PM me your player as I'll be online most of the night, I can post it for you. And, I won't steal it from you as you pick before me, and If he takes him, we'll just have to wait  :)

[CrowsFan]

Alright Q if he hasn't come on before I leave I will let you know. A big hint is that it is a keeper, so unless andrew decides to pick a second keeper to go with cech I think I will be fine.

Also in regards to robs pick of rooney I think it was a really good one. I wanted him in my team, and was hoping that since he had a slow start he might get ignored at first. He is the main point of attack for united and showed with england the other night that when played deeper he will still get assists instead of goals.

[Master Q]

Ok cool CF. It would be smart and stupid if he picked another Keeper. Smart so no one else could get him and use him as Trade Bait, but stupid as he already has Cech.

(Rooney Topic) But how can you not pick Drogba? 39 Points in what, 3 games?

i guess what goes up, must come down, and chelsea have had an easy run so far

[Master Q]

But then there's Malouda (got him), Walcott (got him) and even Lampard. Milner, Cole, Arshavin and even Tevez?

[benjy251090]

yeah, i dunno, it is a little weird, i guess he did used to play with rooneys brother and he might be able to get him to him to pick his game up :P

I was going to pick a Keeper this round as well ::). Doubt My guy (and likely yours) will last that long. Know your pick is out of 2 guys.....

Drogba was a given for me :P. Lets see how much I can get for him now 8).

[CrowsFan]

Yeah true about Drogba, but as benjy said he had 3 very easy games to begin with. In my opinion they will both end up with about the same score at the end of the season so didn't really matter which to pick.
Some people also have personal favourites on who to pick even if others could score higher

That was Milner for me :-*. Just 2 more and that's 3 of my favs locked up 8). Should slip through the cracks hopefully :P.
