PRE Supercoach /or dreamteam Comp with a difference. Ideas welcome.

Ill do it, away March 7th - 10th with no internet access, thats it.

Struggled late with Summer Series due to B-day, Aus Day and just havent been on much due to squeezing in sh!t to do before holidays end.
 
OK we have a concept.

Its time to get serious in finding our 16 players.

lets throw siome names around and start inviting some posters.

this has the makings of a very good comp.
 
Ok, im very keen. Only issue is that im going to Lakes Entrance from March 7-10 and won't be on internet there, and also going to Perth March 30 - April 8, and will have limited internet access.

So if that clashes with it then i don't want to hold everyone up.
 
I'm also keen, the only weekend I won't be available is the weekend of our NAB Cup match.
 
Depending on how its done i might be interested. I like the dream team/supercoach and stuff like that. If its like a draft i will do it. Once the supercoach scores are up all you have to do is add it up, its not hard and would only take a few minutes.

once the draft is done checkers nothing more would need to be done.

transfers could only be done from players left in the undrafted players pool.

The scoring and all would be done as per the SC site.

this will work with committed coached during the draft. Preference lists will help it work also.

We will put you down.
 
cool we have a bit of time.

we need 7 coaches.

then we can work out a draft order. and most importantly the draft timings for eveyone.



A detailed set of rules will be posted, and it should give us a bit of time so everyone absolutely understands whats going on.

I recommend maybe we all go on the chatroom as 16 coaches if it can be arranged. ( finer details could then be discussed)

please feel free to invite others, but the true list is up on page 1. we have 9 coaches ATM.
 
Hi guys,

Would love to join in but will be spending most of the year travelling without internet.

I have some teams in a similar concept for English Premier League - playthegame.timesonline.co.uk

The way they do it is everyone ranks the players in the order that they want them. Then when it is thier turn the first person still available on thier list is allocated to thier team.

I would be happy to put together a spreadsheet that had every player listed so that everyone could rank the players in the order that they wanted them. This could show the estimated values from fanfooty as well.

I would then allocate players based on the draft system you choose (probably 1 to 16, 16 to 1, 1 to 16, etc.) and only allocate the number of players per position. Ie once someone had 4 rucks they would not be allocated any more rucks.

Being quite good with excel this would be quite easy to do for me.

Let me know.
 
hi Max how are ya.

I like the thought of that, except for 1 reason.

If we do it as we go, then coaches can keep watching the SC site and keep a running total of there spending.
( although - we probably won't be anywhere near the team totals anyway.)

Also doing it as we go is fun.


the money thing - is my main concern otherwise it would work.

whats others thought.
 
Actually you might be surprised how easy it is to reach the budget this year.

If someone was to get the 1st, 17th, 33rd, 49th, etc player then it would total £8,497,400 and the budget is £7,430,200.

If you did 1 to 16, 16 to 1, 1 to 16 etc. Then if a player was always to choose the most expensive available they would end up with a team costing £8,351,100 even the person picking last would be £600k over budget.

You have the same problem with having whole teams - the top 30 crows will cost £7,913,100. The top 30 tigers - £8,419,000.

I think that it is quite likely that you are going to have serious issues with the budgets, and therefore this needs to be an important part of the draft plan.

The figures that I have supplied are based on Dream Team, but I am sure that it would be very similar for SC.
 
I am still very keen to get this happening.

It will be a good game. ( experiment)

What we need.

1. 16 committed coaches ( for the draft mainly) 1 week of really strong commitment on the game thread, and then SC to ensure it all works.

2. SET RULES.- I will start a new thread in a couple of days once final rules are written. I've got ideas from the ones that have been on this thread, so I willjust get this thing going now.

( My rules will be final- ;D)

3. A few more players. Lets get them before friday.

cheers.

Agree with some of that, but there will be a sprinkling of ND players and the occasional Rookie which should bring down the over all commitment to something like the Cap. I gues that is the same problem faced by club administrators - how to fit players into a limited budget. Will make coaches think twice about their mid tier players. Could make drafting through the season a real challenge too.

Out teams won;t be competitive in the overall comp, but within the league comp it should be interesting. And with no two teams even remotely alike, it will be even more challenging.

I really need members to be committed for this to work, so after the rules are posted in a few days I need the coaches to re confirm, just before we work out the draft order.

Had interest from Cagedtiger, GPB and Dyer'ere - they would be great additions to that mob and really throw down the gauntlet ;D I've just messaged them some more info - please reserve places for them for now. Waiting for word back from Claw :eek: ;D
