HERE'S A STUPID IDEA - A SFA S37 DRAFT !

I had an idea last night which is now a little more fully formed so I thought I would share it here.

To help spread the SFA Gospel and create some excitement in the lead up to next season here is what we could do ....

Now I know I am a newbie around here and have only been here for 2 seasons so if this has been tried before and
failed, I apologise in advance.

The current SFA body of posters include many people who also post in AFL threads with regards the AFL teams they support.
I think I can safely say we have multiple people who even follow teams like the Gold Coast Suns and GWS - no offence
intended.

We need someone to develop a very user friendly SFA Recruitment "Draft Sign Up" Media Piece which explains what the SFA is,
in an interesting, humorous and tempting way. Then - this media piece needs to be placed into EVERY AFL CLUB Board as a
thread say 4 - 6 weeks out from the start of S37 with a closing date for nominations, say 2 weeks out from the start of the season.
Possibly even BF Banner Ads could run during this period ?

If we can get an average of 3 nominations from each AFL Team Board = 54 nominations for a SFA Draft which would mean each team
gets at least 4 selections. Clubs can of course pass during the draft but must select a player in the first round.

Clubs could still recruit Rookies by existing processes and also players can still change clubs by existing processes.

Players selected by the draft are held by the their respective SFA Club for one season only, after which the player is free
to move to another club or if they're happy, stay where they are.

Draft would start with the team which finishes LAST in S36 having Pick #1 and the S36 Premiers would have Pick #13 and so on.

I believe the implementation of a SFA Draft would be a big help to lower performing teams and those for whom recruitment of
Rookies seems a bit difficult at present.

Discuss ..........

As an nfl draft nuffie, I love this idea. Would take a bit of groundwork, but I’d happily help to be a catalyst in discussing/getting this type of idea moving

 

[Pickitt]

HERE'S A STUPID IDEA

Yup

 

[Cadsky]

Yup

Let's not discourage the guy. He's actually put some thought and effort into this. A lot more than the vast majority of others in the league.
