Cricket Web AFL - which club should be abolished to make way for us?

This is the club we will be replacing in the AFL competition.
Keep in mind that it'd be more realistic if we voted for a cash strapped, struggling club like Richmond or *sigh* the Kangaroos (not saying you should vote for these clubs). Also, if our squad number is not great enough, we may have to take some fringe players from this club to fill up the numbers.

I think it should be the Roos, but we could also get rid of a club that no one on CW supports. Port or Hawthorn maybe?

Port sounds quite good actually, they're the youngest AFL club and yeah, no one on CW supports them.

Is there any chance of there being two teams, and we make it an 18 team competition? Or do we have to have a 16 team comp?

I'm happy with Port or Hawthorn.

Don't know if the sim allows for that.

Nah the sim doesn't allow it.

We've just decided, to get it done quicker, that we'll drop Port Adelaide. Pretty much every team will have a supporter on CW, even if they aren't diehard ones. So we just went on the fact that they have been in the AFL for the shortest period of time, and therefore don't share the history that the Roos and Hawks do.

The Power's 16 best players (as chosen by us) will be ranked and put into a draft. They will then be drafted to each club according to where they finished the 2006 season, so Carlton will get first pick and so on, like a real draft.

How are we going to work out simming stats for some of the people who have very little idea about AFL?

What's the point of the poll then? Port Adelaide - 2 votes. Kangaroos - 5 votes.
