Hey, how do i join in?

[GM]

Yeah the problem is you guys don't realise a new comp would fail, and shouldnt be made because a couple of you want to draft a team, when trade periods are long enough to completely change your team.
The solution for getting everyone a team is to make it 1 TEAM per person.
Think all us members including me with more than one team maybe need to bite the bullet and make way for other keen fanfooty members.

But I'm completely and utterly against a new comp.
IMO British has been through hell and is still up in the air as to whether it will succeed.

Im with this.

and greenmoon, get the bashers/ holz to show you their teams for 2012 and 2013, they completely changed them with trading.

I love pulling weight - kinda used to it!  ;)

[ossie85]

what about a comp where there is a new draft each year then?

If people want to draft every year, there are quite a few drafting competitions already. Ultimate footy, SuperCoach Pro, etc...

But there are 3 drafts every year (National, Preseason, Rookies) + 2 trade periods in the Worlds. So this 'I want to draft my own team' thing seems a bit weird.

Be patient, positions will open up.

Personally, I think each coach should only have 1 team.

Well you had guns like congs, Shiel, etc and used them to get good players. Then got a stupid trade in Whitfield for Barlow ::) as a result you gained better older players for these young guns.

^ that's been my ethos as well. I got asked a couple of times by various people when british/asians were starting up if I wanted to make up numbers, but honestly I really dont think people should be coaching multiple teams.

*waits for nails and lez to start doging*

[CrowsFan]

I'm in agreement with os and zip regarding having 1 team. I'm happy just having my team in the worlds, and yes I know I am part of the Bison in the EXV, but it took a while for LH to convince me to become an assistant there.

Tbh, you're the coach. LH never comes on during off-season and without you the team wouldn't be competetive.

Everything that gets done for the team is discussed with LH. Never done anything he hasn't wanted me to do and he has conducted trades without me, so would say he is still the coach.

YOu have done really well there Holz! Definitely a favorite this year! But seems you have opted  more for experience. Looks like the blokes you have traded wirh are prepping their team for the future! But well done there mate!

[elephants]

Haha Holz doesn't reckon he's favourite...

I went in last year thinking top 4 and got the spoon. Im going to go in with low expectations. There are a few trades I coudl have done to gurantee the win e.g. I could have got ablett instead of LIds
