It's Liam's call, but I expect we'll take him if it gets to us. We're terribly short on batsmen right now.

I suspect it's down to players being declared inactive, which is entirely understandable, however I think that we should probably think on something...vic_orthdox said:
If a team is to have a player deemed inactive, then pick up a great new player, then the inactive player becomes active again... should that inactive player now be a free agent or will they walk back into their team, giving the team a distinct advantage in number of players, and possibly getting them a 'free' quality rookie?

That's down to luck IMO, just as it's down to luck that the players who get declared inactive have varying capabilities. We can't make it totally fair anyway, and it'd be too confusing if we kept moving rookies about just because people reactivated themselves.Loony BoB said:
In most cases, the inactives stay inactive. (Gooljar a notable exception.

Surely they should have their stats trimmed as an inactivity penalty? Didn't we agree that?Loony BoB said:
Still, dunno why I care, Blacks are clearly permanently rooted to fifth in the draft order no matter who gets who...

Yeah, it's pretty ridiculous.

Most players + best achieving squad from last year + few losses due to inactivity = low in draft order.dontcloseyoureyes said:

Best achieving squad from last year? Who won the double, now?

That's just cos you choked at the end. IIRC you won both league titles, a better indication of squad quality.dontcloseyoureyes said:

We didn't choke, Camps cheated IMO. 
(Also, didn't we finish 3rd in OD? We didn't play the final, that's for sure.)

If you want to question my integrity, be a man and come out and do it. Don't made snide remarks and try to pass them off as jokes.

Yeah, I really think you cheated Camps, for sure. (sarcasm, obviously)
Apart from forging a scorecard it's pretty hard to do it with ITC anyway, and I know if it was me I cbf forging a full scorecard.

Actually, no. It's way easier than that. But it's obvious neither Liam nor Hakon would do it, so it's not an issue.
