Dev League Season 8 (Sign Up Here!)

Regarding Dev League Season 8. I won't say when it will begin, but I will start the preparations from now so as to be settled by the time it does.
With that in mind, two questions and a request...

What do you folks think the new expansion team's colour should be?
Should teams be affiliated in some form so that players may be freely transferred in case of excessive callups or injury?

The request...

I'll be needing some help with next season's goingson. Not with actually simming matches, as Reuben would help with that if necessary, but rather with stats tracking. Anyone willing? Apply within.

Stats tracking? Yeah, got a good spreadsheet for that. Just need to tweak it a bit for ITC, but I'm sure that won't take too long.

That too is an option I've considered. Suggestions for a new system?

Continents/countries? (i.e. Europe, NZ, Australia, India, Newcomers) Might be a bit hard to get even teams, though...

towns in northern England
Reds would be St. Helens, obviously, because we're the best
Blacks would be Cleethorpes in honour of their leader, Neil Pickup
Green would be Carlisle for no reason at all
Blue would be Leeds because nobody likes them
And the new team could be whoever they wanted


what do you think?

colours: yellow, brown, white, grey, orange, purple

affiliation: transfers should be allowed, but at the discression of management and the captains.

Purple sounds awesome!!!!

As for interclub transfer, as long as it is very minimal. And like only if one team has 10 players left and another team has surplus to requirements.

CW White sounds ok or a new naming system although I don't have any ideas about that one.
