Fantasy Draft: Full rebuild, new settings, greater flexibility​

THERE will be a new experience for AFL Fantasy Draft players next season as the platform undertakes a full rebuild.

One of the big visual changes will be what you see on draft day. The draft board will allow coaches to follow every pick as the draft unfolds with an interface that includes every pick, draft lists, teams and league chat in a user-friendly setup.

• Flex position– Leagues can add a flexible (or utility) position to their team structure which allows coaches to select a player from any position. For example, you may choose to have a number of defenders, midfielders, rucks and forwards but open up extra spots which can be filled with players with any position status.
• 
  
• Split lockout – Outside of the lockout times of choice for leagues, captains and vice-captains can be locked at separate times. Maybe your league chooses to lock captains at the first game so there is no loopholing?
• 
  
• Injury replacement – If a player has been drafted but is out long-term, rather than dropping them to free agents, they can be placed in a reserve bench place and a free agent can be selected in their place without another coach grabbing your injured gun.
• 
  
• Assign commissioners – Leagues can appoint more than one commissioner.
• 
  
• Pre-draft pick trading/keeper player trading – The ability to change picks between league members and swap players is a key change for keeper leagues for more off-season (and in-season) fun.

Commissioners will be able to control the commencement of drafts and can pause and resume the draft if needed. They will also be able to make further adjustments to picks during the draft. The league boss can adjust trade deadline times and choose how emergencies work.

With the help of stat-whiz Jaiden Popowski, there will be big improvements to projected scores, head-to-head match-up probability and a league-specific match centre.

Quick question for the brains trust.

I'm back on here roughly three months before I need to be. Do I have a problem?
