So earlier this year, I knocked up a frisbee draft in about eight minutes loosely based on the AFL draft. This year I'm putting a bit more thought into it.
For those who weren't paying attention to the last one, the picks are based on the order of where teams finished at Nationals, with the lowest team getting pick #1, second last getting #2, and so on and so forth. I'm only including teams that aren't pick-upy or likely to be at Nationals in 2010. Now in the actual AFL draft, teams can pick players from wherever the hell they want, but for the purposes of realism (lol) I'm restricting teams to players from their own state.
This year there's something else that I'll be taking into consideration - since the Thunder and Terra teams will be competing at Nats in their own right, the candidates for those teams won't be in this draft.
Rather than waste blog material in just one post, I'll start out with the draft order and open it up to some speculation...who is the next big thing you've seen around the traps?

Why is firestorm so low, considering they finished 5th at Nats and beat Fakulti?
Oh, I get it. Ignore me
The clubs that put in two teams for Nats make some interesting cases (i.e. vs. clubs that only put in one team), particularly with the A&B vs. X&Y choices and where they finish/where their picks end up.
I don't think the extra round 1 draft pick is fair for the 2-team clubs is fair. A lot of clubs have B-squads (or could have), they just can't get them to Nats. Clubs that do get 2 teams at nats shouldn't get the extra advantage of 'picking up' more strong players than the other clubs.
Hi!
