Thanks Lez - Where is Jay a co-coach as i have not been advised and will take the necessary action to put to vote. may have missed a note though but can not remember receiving anything.

This week we see our only split Round for the year -

Scores for Brisbane, Freemantle, Hawthorn, Port Adelaide, Richmond and Western Bulldogs Players will be added in Round 12.

With having to name team by Friday there is a possibility that there may be more outs from these clubs in Round 12.

Bit difficult to have a rolling lockout with 12 clubs already played so putting this out there for discussion.

Possible change For this week only we list 5 emergencies to cover balance of Round. 

Other Alternative is to allow interchange within the 6 clubs but may be messy hence the above suggestion.

Thoughts and any other ideas.

How about we just name 15 players from any position I dunno lol

would have thought we would name our players available for round 11 and then they are locked, and before round 12 we name our round 12 players.

normal partial lockout rules. simple and in line with normal fantasy rules ?

sure we will not know how many round 12 players we will have playing, but we will be able to name extra round 11 players to be sure we can field a full team.

Understand that Colli - But just trying to think of the easiest way to administer - 

Would mean trying to forecast your Round 12 players and may leave you short.

Will see how discussion goes and put a vote out.

that would be the easy way to administer wouldn't it?  and too bad for us if we get greedy or make bad calls and don't have enough players from the round 12 games to field?

think it is pretty fair and easy the way you have done it, in AXVS the teams have to play every bye round :)

5 emergencies worked pretty well for Worlds last year

Rolling lock out is difficult (as Ringo said) with 12 teams one week, 6 the other.

so you are suggesting no partial lockout, just name the team from both rounds ahead of round 11 and have 5 emergencies?

when we have a partial lockout for a round with split weeks it makes me wonder why we wouldnt for a round played over 2 rounds during the byes.....

still I don't mind, the added emergencies works too i guess....  might even make it safer/easier for teams...

[ossie85]

The difference being that the split rounds are generally 1 or 2 games one week, the rest the next. It gives you a lot of flexibility.

This though you have 12 teams up front, and if you have a late change or withdrawal, it will be only blind luck if you can actually do anything about it (if you have 3 defenders play week 1, and the other defender in week 2 doesn't play, there's every chance the defender you would to replace them would have played week 1. The emergency system would work better imo

[Ringo]

Thinking these 2 options to put to vote:

Option 1:
We treat as a partial lock out
Name full teams by Friday
Players playing week 1 locked
Players playing week 2 are not locked till the Friday Bounce final lock out allowing changes amongst these teams only including emergencies
3 emergencies to be named.

Option 2:
Name Teams on Friday Week one
5 emergencies named with no penalties for using out of position.

Any other suggestions or comments.
