    Can you believe Haaland is up to 14 this year? Definitely, 100%, most certainly wouldn't pick him #1 overall. P.S. Sure, I'll take 1st.

    Do you all have a locked player list? Once the draft starts no added players can be drafted till the open transfer window.

    2:30am in Sydney right now. Not sure if BiggerBoat can confirm on the player list. I have not set one up yet but maybe someone else can help on that.

    I think Sand is all set to start drafting. Just need to make a separate thread. Good luck all!

    I saw the other thread is up and ready to go. Thanks! Shall I draft or are we waiting?

    Also @DrHeckle, are you sure you're giving up 1st pick?

    Whats App group set up and all invited.... as I said on the WhatsApp chat, we have plenty of time and the Draft is half the fun of this League so lets not rush, and everyone pick when they can. None of this rushing/proxy shit... that sucks all the fun and life out of it. It is not a race... it is to be savoured .... (wow that was very poetic o_O:inlove::laugh:) .. that's my 2 cents worth anyway :D

    @Norm Coyle - You're up to draft. It would be nice to get back to the Australians before USA goes to sleep tonight. You're the only one not on the WhatsApp chain by the way. Check your email for the invite.

    If it would help the draft move a little quicker, I'd be willing to move my draft position closer to the other North American folks (giving up my next pick if needed). If the Aussies are all together on one end, they can get two picks in their daylight hours. Then we can do the same. Right now, we are averaging just over 1 pick per day.

    I wrote this to the group chat, but wanted to post here too for @Norm Coyle to see too:

    Maybe we can try to get two or three rounds in between 7pm and 10pm US ET. That’s 9am and noon Australia. 4pm and 7pm US PT. Possible for everyone to be on their devices during that period? 2.5 hours from now?

    We’re looking good to finish the draft well before the start of the season, just wanted to mirror what Bigger Boat said at the beginning of the draft that we have time and there’s no rush (we’re currently in 10th draft round out of 15 total). So not sure why it seems every year there’s always a rush to complete the draft 10-14 days before the season even starts. Just wanted to reiterate what BB mentioned earlier and our current pace is fine to finish well ahead of the season start. My two cents on this
