Hang on, I thought we were doing a staggered draft (serpentine) where if someone picks 1st in round 1 they pick 10th in round 2 then 1st in Round 3, etc?

I should be picking 3rd in Round 2.

So the Murbah Mad Ducks get to pick 2nd and 1st respectively in Rounds 1 and 2 while the Bulls get to pick 10th then 9th in Rounds 1 and 2 respectively.

Sorry but that is just blatantly unfair, I see what the draft is doing, essentially everyone moves up one spot every round, that's still a massive advantage for those drafting in the first few spots in the first couple of rounds.

*sigh*

I just think its so obvious, all fantasy comps run drafts that way, it's the fairest option...

staggered draft = snake draft - it is in the rules mate

AB

I went staggered draft. However if the majority want a random draft so be it. I'll change it.

LIVE RANDOM DRAFT
During the random draft, the pick order is randomised and each round, coaches are able to see when their picks are for the next two rounds only. For whatever reason, coaches are able to forfeit a pick and once the draft is over, are able to pick players until their squad of players is complete.

LIVE STAGGERED DRAFT
During the staggered draft, the pick order is randomised for the first round. After the first round each coach moves up one position in the order with the 1st position moving to last, then second last and so on. For whatever reason, coaches are able to forfeit a pick and once the draft is over, are able to pick players until their squad of players is complete.

No no no, Im a big fan of a staggered draft, leave it as is please ;)

Well obviously I didn't read the description because I thought 'snake' draft was the same as a 'serpentine' draft, which I realise now it ain't.

Staggered draft is still a much better option that a random draft, but it is still terribly biased. It surprises me that no-one else seems to care but whatever.

So who we waiting for?
