Ben is correct when he says this league is newbie friendly. This is a group of quality people and is well-organized. The little nuances of the league (such as renaming players to make them consistent with the country that drafts them) keep this league fresh.
The only negative thing I can think of assuming control of the Sydney franchise is that the upstart London Ravens will probably sweep them this year
Seriously, if you want a good, fun league, join now before all the quality free agents disappear.
