Wookiee: What would I need to give up for your first Waiver pick?

NEW PLAYER ADDED

Import Guard Gary Ervin is added to the Free Agent List.

He is restricted until 11am tomorrow.

You may bid for in the meanwhile by announcing who you intend to delist as well.

Please remember you are only allowed 2 imports on your team.

Might as well bid for Ervin in the off chance Ox doesn't visit the site before the cutoff.

Will bid for Ervin, dropping Curtis withers if successful

Sorry guys, big long weekend... I'm assuming all times are REAL Time minus 30mins? ;)

Hendo... not sure... as already assumed, I'm quite happy with my current two imports, however getting some legitimacy in my front court without wondering if they're healthy would be nice...

@w00kiee77 on the twitter I guess, if anyone has anything that they would like to negotiate before the deadline?

Correct on time Wookiee. Always Adelaide time.

I only have Crosswhite as a centre, so can't really afford to let him go.
But I have Abercrombie, Weigh, Saville, Tovey and Jackson as my forwards.
Not sure what sort of upgrade you are after, so maybe chuck me some offers and I'll see.

I think I might have to pass, Hendo, sorry... I'm fairly happy with my forwards and if me Cs stay healthy, I'm pretty happy with them too *knocks on wood*, so while it feels like I'm passing on Ervin, unless something drastic happens between now and 11:30AM REAL Time, I think I will hold onto my #1 spot for now...

So getting in and posting my team for the week in case I get all distracted, barring any serious injuries:

STARTERS
C: Matthew Burston (MEL) C
F: Anthony Petrie (ADL) F
F: Jacob Holmes (TSV) F
G: Kevin Lisch* (PER) G
G: Corin Henry* (SYD) G

BENCH
Larry Davidson (WOL) C
CJ Bruton (NZB) G
Dillon Boucher (NZB) F

DNP
Greg Hire (PER) F
Nate Tomlinson (MEL) G

All good. I'll just sit and hope McFarlin actually gets signed.

Wookie , I am keen to get Ervin so let me know if you would like anyone of Crawford , Knight , Edwards etc.

Leaving run a bit late there Pure Silk ;) I'm keen on Crawford, but is he a combo G/F here? I can't find a proper list from the start with all the players...

Ox gains Gary Ervin and drops to 8th on Waiver.

Curtis Withers is removed from players list as no longer signed.

Welcome to the Double Dribbles, Gary.

There's something wrong if that team doesn't get promoted.
Hinder being your only centre would be your only concern.

Don't be so certain.

Although Ervin won the MVP, his Fantasy scores weren't fantastic.

Turnovers and Missed shows (in particular freethrows) hurt his scores last time.

Nice Team OX - Definately early faves IMO.

The Pure Silk lineup for Round 1 is

Starting 5

Knight
Edwards
Hill
Crawford

NEW PLAYER ADDED

Import Forward/Centre Larry Abney is added to the FA list.

Bid for Abney. Release Forte.
Now no one outbid me please.

damnit, forgot my captain... no-one REALLY stands out, sportal points wise, I think this is a better rotisserie team, but we'll take the easy choice this round until the doubles start...

Bench
Larry Abney
Cameron Tovey
Chris Goulding

DNP
Brad Robbins
Daniel Jackson

Taking the safe options of Gibson over Abercrombie and Saville over Abney.

i disagree Hendo. This comp will be won and lost through injuries. Given there is absolutely no one to replace a long term injury on the FA list, itll be donuts for whoever is unlucky. Obviously you have your DNPs which may help, but you cant get decent cover if one of your key players goes down. And the avgs of the weaker players is close enough to 0 anyway.

Injury prone players are always tempting in the draft, but this particular game could be significantly penalising if you have too many.

Skip, where do we pay our $20 to? Is there a list of people who have committed?

Hendo8888 - Correct.

Forte is remomved from the players list.

Allen
Johnson (cappo)
Henry
Hurdle
Deleon

Martin
Pero V
Daly

F - creek
G - braswell
G - Martin

B - Cadee

B - Webster

DNP - demos
DNP - macmillian

assuming lockout was at 4pm, what happens to clarkys team skip?

Last year it was just the week before's team that was entered.
Being round 1, that doesn't work. He was only 2 minutes late, so I'd be inclined to let him go.
Depends how strict skip wants to be.

let the man play made up fantasy basketball!!

Tip off hadnt commenced. So I will allow it.
