Thought I'd put it out there, that, even in my quest for forwards in the trading period, Dayne Zorko is available for trade.

Good to see some trade talks, to keep us non-finalists entertained  ;D

Pick 1 is available. PM if interested. May be wiling to package it with Jack Martin for a gun mid.

now your willing to part with martin  :P

but seriously over at PNL (since it seems we are about to be knocked out of the finals)
we have some serious cap problems people's so i see alot of teams needing forward and we have the likes of dawes and Tom T Lynch among other players

Hey all - just sent this to Jayman/tbagrocks

Hey guys,

Received a heap of comments and objections over the recent decision regarding the Pacific Islanders selection issue. That and given tbags comments implying that the rules aren't well known and an attitude suggesting that the Islanders will only try their best when they have a better team, it was decided to put things to a vote.

Of the 15 coaches that voted (2 did not vote), 11 voted that the Islanders should be given a sanction. It was then decided by the 15 coaches that sanction should be the loss of Pick 3.

I know this is a sensitive issue, and am happy to discuss. Will post this decision in the discussion thread, but I encourage all to be civil, and don't be antagonistic or personal in comments.

Oz

No antagonistic or personal comments guys. Seriously. Let's move on.

[Master Q]

What's the punishment here?

Tank to get Pick 1 and the sanction is loss of Pick 3. Goal achieved.

Just wanted to add that, but the sanction has already been decided so I guess I'm moving on too  :P

nah i think it is ok almost too harsh

before everyone flies off the handle
it is pick 3 we are talking about a pretty decent pick and yeah they did seem to tank but then trying to trade harry taylor for pick 1 last trade period could be seen as not improving your side for the current system imo Q
(not having a direct dig at you just saying)

if they didn't lose and get picm 1 what would they have instead pick 2 and 3?

"then trying to trade harry taylor for pick 1 last trade period could be seen as not improving your side for the current system imo Q"

The reason that got blocked is because coaches thought we were ripping off Pot. So if that is seen as not improving our side (confused by that as well), well ok then, but that has nothing to do with tanking DURING the season.

If they got Pick 1 fairly, they would also have 3. We would have 2 and 4.

no i meant if they finished 2nd last they would of got 2 and 4 then
so they have been punished and you may say oh they still get pick 1
i can tell you now i'd rather 2 and 4 then just 1 by itself

so my point is losing pick 3 is massive imo

[DazBurg]

i think it should of been a 2nd round pick as i really do not think it was that clear cut that
it was like
"oh look if we tank we get pick 1 imo"

but i will stop posting about it now as Ossie did say let's move on so sorry Ossman

This.

I think that the vote was bias anyway, because clubs want to move their draft picks up.

[elephants]

Seriously. Let's move on.
