*Official* Overseas Draft Thread
 

The draft will take place as follows:
1. A draft order will be randomly generated, and each team can sign one player per round.
2. At the end of each round, the order will be reversed for the next round.
3. Each franchise will have 6 points to spend.
4. There will be three lists of players (a total of 42) and each franchise must sign a minimum of 3 players, within their 6-point budget.
5. Teams who have agreed to pre-contract deals (ie, Nixonstown - Nixon, Upper Body - Murphy) must forfeit their third round draft pick to sign the players. Essentially, these players will be taken as third round draft picks, despite not being in the approved list.

The Draft Order (for Round 1):

1. Nixonstown
2. Mørkambe
3. West Robhbham
4. East Robbham
5. Davistow
6. Fardingham
7. Garven Island

Draft picks should either be announced or confirmed by team captains. Once a pick falls in line with the rules, it will be approved by the CWBCC. Once each pick is confirmed, the next team in the order may pick.

How many points are the precontracted players worth? I think they should be at least 2 points

Iirc, Murphy is worth two points and James in worth one.

Looks good Liam. Right lets get this started. :)

EDIT- Are these 1 season contracts?

Yes. Though the CWBCC may work out a system of contract extensions before the season statrts.

And yes, Murphy is 2 points and Nixon is 1.

Will the overseas players have their stats adjusted much?

The same adjustment as all CW players. Players with less than 20 T20 caps will have their OD stats adjusted to arrive at T20 simming stats. So if a player has more than 20 T20 caps, you can take their career stats as indication.

Nixontown choose Adam Hollioake.
