Are there any players that wernt drafted to a club ??
In the supercoach version every player was drafted.

In the dreamteam version, there was a cap of 35 players. 25 normal, 5 National Draft, and 5 rookie draft in which two of those picks could be leftover AFL listed players.

Actually PB, not every player was drafted in the SC version. Lincoln McCarthy from Geelong, Collingwood's Trent Stubbs, Daniel Famer and Michael Hartley, Geelong's Mark Blicava, Fremantle's Jordan King, St. Kilda's Darren Michington, Western Bulldogs's Mark Austin, Essendon's Anthony Long, Gold Coast's Josh Hall and finally Sydney's Jack Lynch missed out on being drafted.

What happened to the WXV's brownlow btw?  :-\

I would assume it's like the normal brownlow and we don't know see any of the results until the end of the season?

Ahhh, that would make sense.
Cheers Boomz!

It would be cool to have a live vote count at the end of the season! Aslong as nobody ruins it by calculating the results beforehand  :P

Still hate the idea. It disadvantages teams who take a long term view and want to develop their players. If someone nails their recruiting and picks the majority of the next generation of stars, they shouldn't be forced to cut them and be penalised for good recruiting. If you picked a whole heap of duds who aren't good enough to get AFL games that's you're own fault.

The idea is to keep it similar to AFL, and no such cap exists. Teams that recruit poorly suffer. One such club traded Scott Thompson for Lynden Dunn, took Scully and Trengove over Martin and Fyfe, and took Watts over NicNat. Melbourne don't get a crack at securing Jobe Watson and Daniel Wells simply because they're experienced.

I believe the AFL has a salary cap, does it not?? So teams are restricted to who they can and cannot get. Plus it's a pretty lenient cap that ossie's suggested.
