    Don't get too far along as one or more of your teams may get moved up to VSR after July 16 deadline for returning managers to hold their position and post their Intent To Continue playing in All Rocks drafted leagues this season..

    Sent emails to both for the old email I had for each of them. Neither email bounced, so hopefully they are still good.

    Thoughts about when we should start? Anyone have times they are not available?

    Sooner rather than later would be better for me, August has some traveling but July looks good if that works for others.

    BEWARE ...... Very Small Rocks may have holes in the lineup, which could impact this group.

    It appears that Very Small Rocks has a full roster.

    How are things going in Sand?

    Yep VSR is full.... the 3 " missing people" are sorted.

    I have proxy for one bloke who is out of internet range for another week and the other 2 are good mates of mine and definitely playing - they are just not very computer literate

    I'm ok to start whenever, but I'd prefer later rather than sooner, to have a better idea of incoming players and lineups. Early August should be early enough, right? How much time did it take last year?

    Last year the Dust draft commenced - with the Hazard pick that doomed me at the first moment - on July 24. But the PL starts five days later this year, August 13 v. August 8. With that as a guide we should probably start no later than the 29th, next Friday. I can go at any time.

    I've learned that it doesn't matter what I think I know, how much time I prepare, etc... but, I would like a few days... also, it takes a long time to do the draft because of the worldwide nature of our leagues... What nations are represented in Sand this year? USA for me.

    Rooney & Benteke were my first picks last year, season 2 can only get better!!!

    Anytime works for me, I will be quick to act for the most part...
