I much much prefer the 13 man roster - Especially if we only have a 10 team league. I enjoy having to dig for deeper sleepers rather than just picking stars.

If everyone else prefers the smaller roster I won't argue too hard though.

That's a fair point too. Maybe it's time to put some of these debated league rules down to a vote...

It'll hopefully be a 12 team league though; Mickyster has apparently promised to sign up, and then we just need one more to sign up between now and draft day. Heck, if we BB-mail (read; pester) enough Aussie managers about it we might still have a chance of reaching 14...

Yeah, my thoughts on a 10 man squad, was for a 14 team league. I'm not opposed to a 13 man squad in a 10 team gig.

Either way I was planning on winning the whole thing anyways ;-)

I can play but will need quite a bit of guidance about how these things work and what to do once the season starts. I have been in one before which started well but once the season started there was very little to do, no transactions and just a question of taking out injured players and putting in people that were in form. I also agree with mllama a deeper draft of 13 is much better than 10. If you draft a couple of people that get injured you are fairly much dead with a 10 man roster I would assume.

Come in spinner, there will be no shortage of guys who can help, just like on the forums here i guess, we already have the culture built since we all come from BB.

Thing with your squad is that there is a free agent list. If you get an injury, you can decide to hold on to the player or replace him, having less guys adds to the risk/management part of the game (some guys held onto D. Rose all last season, hoping he would return and save the day... oops) If you have too many roster spots, guys just scoop up all the risks and hold them with no penalty, remember with the 10 man squad, your score is made up of the top 8 guys, 2 will be bench guys and this is where you can place your injured guy if you want to hold on to one.

Big thing for an active league is constant change, Trades, Waivers, Hot Free Agents, keep the team fresh, keep the banter flowing.

Franka (Quinn Kings), the defending champion from last seasons BB fantasy (I think), has joined the league! Now we just need Mickyster to finalise his sign-up for an even 12.

You would be number 12 if and when you do sign up. When Mickyster signs up sometime this week that would make 13, so again we need to find another manager to make the numbers even (14), because Head-to-head leagues require an even number of teams.

I'll let Mickyster be number 12 and I can just be the reserve then.
