It wont let me do it but set it to none then change it back to waivers and 1. It should free the list up and then go back to a regular effect for next week
cant change it but it is at 1 day which should make it open before the 1st game but waivers shows 'thurs' as when you can get players. So you cant trade NYG or Cowboys

Leave it at 1 and 9 tomorrow night it should free up anyway. So people just have to check before gametime and players get locked out before their own games anyway

Actually says 3am Thursday which is when they normally release players (3am of what day we pick on the 1 or two day release list). Guys should be open to pick up at 5pm EST tomorrow

especially with the WR/TE as well. 2QBs in a 10 man league is tough

2 years ago we only had 6 players but could only choose NFC players. Was even harder, but i liked the challenge

Guys I just checked the waivers and remembered ESPN runs in US time. So the waivers will be cleared on Thursday 3 am US time which means it will be AFTER the Giants Cowboys game. It just means that the guys from those games will be locked out but all the other guys will be released prior to their games. Check in the morning and see if it is running in Australian time but I don't think that is the case.

I think that is like 5pm Sydney time and just for CW, 5pm Brisbane time

just got asked about waivers

Waivers is a lot like the AFL draft in that after every week the team that is lowest on the ladder get first pick of any free players.

So after all games are finished for the round, all players not selected on rosters are on the waiver wire. All owners can go on to the waiver wire and make changes to their line-ups. But you are not guaranteed that player. The lowest team on the ladder gets there first waiver pick, then it moves up the ladder.

So in other words if you have a dud player, let’s say a WR, then you go onto waivers and select another player to replace him. Once you click on the "Claim" icon next to the new player, then it takes you to your roster for you to drop a player you no longer want. After you have submitted your roster and confirmed it, you will see on your roster page that you have a "Pending Move".

One thing that you might like to do is set players to come in if your number 1 was taken by someone else higher on waiver. So you can Claim another player on waivers and select the same player you want to drop and submit your roster. After that you will see on your roster page that you have 2 "Pending Moves", and you can change the preference of which one you want first.

You can "claim" as many people as you want on waivers, but be aware, after the waivers period is over, then all players on the waiver wire become free agents and its first in best dressed. If you change your mind regarding one of the waiver trades then you can cancel them on the roster page.

The photo below should show you what I am trying to explain

it is slightly different for the first week as waivers will end at 10pm tonight and all free players willl become first in best dressed
