No problem. And anyone can join up until the end of the first round. (they just get put in at the end of the order) Will cap it at 15 people though.

Contemplated selecting a legendary All Black lock from a few decades ago but I'll secure Daniel Carter, rated by most as the best player in the world today, at first five.

Hmm. Conflicted here, want to take one of three players. Was hoping two of the three would be gone by now so it would be easy. But now I have to choose.

I'll go with Colin Meads. New Zealand's most celebrated player.

Like a fantasy draft really. You just got to the bottom of the draft order for the first round.

Oh, btw ripper868 is on the clock.

That's alright, we can skip him and he'll get a compensation pick at the beginning of the second round (along with his normal pick). Sound fair?

So Perm is on the clock. (Ripper can still pick, but if Perm selects a player before ripper does he has to wait until the second round.)

It might be better just to put him on to the bottom of the list permanently, as if he signed up now...

Not trying to be too pedantic about this, but Colin Meads wore the no. 5.
