Even settng the pre-selections is a joke! It's taking forever and its picking players for me I haven't even chosen.

just make sure you tick the make my pick for me button in your profile before you leave guys. it does speed it up for those that stick it out.

I was fearful the live draft would f**k up like this. I can't even get into the my profile page to change anything.

Talk about half arsed!

Thank god. Been so busy at work, and was just thinking it was me that was getting screwed over. Yeah, lets just forget about this league. THis site is horrible.

I am pretty close to ditching this also. The only good draft structure is 2 minute rounds, quick draw because then the draft is over in less than an hour.

Yeah I've just chucked it on Auto select and haven't even bothered to pre-select players, will check in the morning to see if i can salvage anything out of what i have but honestly this league is a dud and I am pretty much out as well.

Will definitely be looking for trades, cause I am very light on backs and got plenty of strike forwards.

well, myself and Squiggles will be hanging around and staying active in this comp. i'd be surprised if there's not enough talent in the player pool for a few more teams to make themselves respectable... but there you go, i guess.

last draft i had i completely missed the draft and managed to piece an entire squad together from what was left in the player pool. of course i'm not looking to win that comp, my main aim is to make the finals. i will consider that a massive victory for my fantasy league skills if i can manage it.

my team turned out pretty absurd. i was pretty well prepared for the draft:

1. Jarryd Hayne
2. Akuila Uate
3. Dylan Farrell
4. Blake Ferguson
5. Nathan Merritt
6. Jarrod Mullen
7. Kurt Gidley (k)
8. Kade Snowden
9. Matt Srama
10. Ben Hannant
11. Chris Houston
12. Alex Glenn
13. David Stagg

14. Elijah Taylor
15. Matt Prior
16. Beau Champion
17. David Mead

18. Roy Asotasi
19. Keith Galloway
20. Adam Cuthbertson
21. Tariq Sims
22. Willie Tonga
23. Wes Naiqama
24. Tautau Moga
25. Adam Reynolds

even managed to cram 7 Knights into my squad.

That is a VERY special backline.

I think our packs are pretty close, I am loving my depth personally.

But since i only made 3 or 4 picks before i bailed. I am very happy with the team that i have got

I ended up with Idris, Jennings, J. Morris and Lawrence.

Sent the Cheeseheads a trade offer if you need a centre.
