(If i have misread something please correct me)
I fear my post was not entirely serious. I was looking for the most arcane and convoluted system to point up the fact that keeping it simple is oft the best way forward.
Personally I see the simplest way is for the Captains to choose who they feel is best for their team for their own reasons and without restriction beyond that the choice is still there for the choosing.
About the only place which might allow for difference is how the Captains are selected and thats fine.
But in the end the buzz is who chooses who for their 'perfect team' and why : restricting that choice to randomly chosen parts of the active player base devalues the choices that can be made. I mean what next.. you can only choose inactive players.. players with a name beginning ib certain letters.. players with an 'e' in the month of their birth.. and so on.
Its interesting to see who got chosen when in past drafts and how some players persist while others have cone and gone. Thats the history of this game and has value beyond change for changes sake.
