Its time for us to go all the waytrue but not for entire draft...use it for some picks and injuries etc.
InCategories of players
1. Attackers
2. Midfielders
3. Defenders
4. Goalkeepers
The draft masters will put 5 players in each category. The best five in their opinion and give them numbers 1 to 5. (Hidden)
The drafters in their turn will pick a number and get the player with that number.
For example.
Defenders:
1. Figueroa
2. Maldini
3. Beckenbauer
4. Baresi
5. Scirea
First drafter let's say picks defender number 2. He gets Maldini.
The draft masters will add a new defender in the list and randomly change numbers again for next person
Drafter's can choose any category at any turn.
What you will end up with is some really unbalanced sides with some bad fits. And ofcourse some great fits too. All based on your luck.
Your job is to make best use of them and create the best team you can.
Draft will be more down to the tactical acumen of the manager instead of drafting skills. And of course luck.
Should lead to some great and funny discussions.
Would need at least 2-3 draft masters to keep rolling.

It's serious draft business. Just buckle up and enjoy the ride.Why am I getting a Tuppet'esque vibe about this post?

Sounds like my own drafts. Tell me it ain't a revenge thingy, esp with Mustard thereIf you want fair, dont sign up.

This has to happen at some point or I will El Topo myselfBasically, it's the draft equivalent of the Jodorowsky's Dune
I have some Round ideas for a sheep draft but I don't have enough likes to be able to start threads (which would be necessary both for the main draft thread and for the match threads).Anyone any ideas for the next draft?
I was thinking more in terms of whether there was anyone who could create threads who would be interested in being part of a committee with me for organizing the sheep draft.

I'd like to participate in an Italian players only draft. Probably the only country that can give you enough players in all positions. There is so much underused talent there that don't appear in drafts. Also a break from the GOAT fests we have been having. Should be all time with pre war players as well.
The Italian Job Draft !
if only to laugh at EdgarPlayed for. Born in Italy if never debuted for any national team.
All performances at club and country count.
Realistically, the matches will be a bit shite as 1) there'll be a lot of unfamiliar players so voting will be low 2) managers that pick pre-footage players will hype them to the moon and those who don't will dismiss them. The drafting and research would be rewarding though, and it seems like ages since we've had a draft like this. In a similar vein, all-time La Liga Draft could be good.I like this, but needs a block list.
Baresi
Maldini
Gullit
Van Basten
Platini
Scirea
Facchetti
R9
Diego
To name a few....needs some others to be blocked too.
Sadly, it's all on him - we have those discussions from time to time. He's a great poster, so it shouldn't be a problem for him to get a few likes in the main football forum - giving likes for draft posts is frowned upon, unless it's a truly outstanding post a la @Raees' piece on Pelé, for example.
Nope, things have always been this way. In fact, things are better now because newbies have limited Mains access — which enables them to participate in Mains drafts. Being a draft regular does not equate to a free pass/promotion, and if Michael (or any other newbie poster) needs full access to post more frequently, he/they will have to make more like-worthy non-draft Football/United forum posts, instead of focusing on a niche activity while effectively putting the rest of the forum on ignore. We have not made exceptions in the past, and can not make exceptions in this instance. Sorry!Wow things really have changed around here.
Ahem. I'll say no more.Being a draft regular does not equate to a free pass/promotion
inHas there ever been a draft in the past with below criteria:
Can pick any players who fulfill the below criteria
1. Player should never have won the WC
2. Player should never have won the UCL
3. Player should never have won Euros
No block list and simple snake style drafting.

Edit: Might actually block a couple of players like Figueroa/Zico

Thought about it but most of the great South Americans have won the WC anyways. Zico and Figueroa will stay blocked. Rest are okay.Would it be worth blocking winners of the Copa America too?
Ok, that's fine then.Thought about it but most of the great South Americans have won the WC anyways. Zico and Figueroa will stay blocked. Rest are okay.
Welcome back from your hibernation!I'd be up for that.
Ha! I was back - and ready to dominate the world - but that league thing just fizzled out. Shame, really - I liked the concept.Welcome back from your hibernation!
