All captains have been emailed with some of the email addresses. The Norwayese one will email with the rest soon.

He asked when he confirmed his sign up if he could change to be back up keeper. The Under 19s need a new keeper/batsmen and system probably needs a couple more as Black don't have a back up and the other clubs outside Green only have two. But i guess its up to him to push for it anyway.

Im I the only person that thinks the way of determining the order is wrong now the salary cap has been introduced?

As there is now a 60 pt limit, a drive towards parity, a limit on contracted players without paying a penalty and effectively a completely different system, I dont see what relevance the previous 2 seasons have.

With a new system in place, surely that slate needs to be wiped clean and start all over again?

The draft order should be randomnly determined as all teams are now starting off with similar points levels within a whole new system.

If Im the only one that thinks this way, Ill be quiet and leave it. However, just thowing my thoughts out there.

You're forgetting that the entire contract system is based on performances over past seasons. That's how we've rated players, and thats the foundation of the entire system.

With each team facing the same salary cap and dealing with players ranked on past success, it's only fair for teams to draft players based on team success. It's the way it's done in most professional sports, where the finish of a team one season determines the draft pick the next season. That way the lesser teams tend to end up getting the better players in the draft.
