Is it just me, or should players be listed in order from highest non-league value to lowest, rather than in decreasing skill level order?
Surely it would be better if the more valuable players were up first to make the bidding process more intuitive?
I think this would be a help to us all, but maybe it's just my way of thinking?

From a coding standpoint I think this is a pretty straightforward change for me to make. When players are created, before their "lot" is stamped onto them, the sort is by skill_level desc, age_int asc.
I'd just move that to sort by "minimum bid" descending, then stamp their lot number on them to achieve what Mr. Bate suggests.
What do you guys think? Keep what we have or move to a sort based on minimum bid?
The shift that Andy proposes sounds good, especially since that would help remind managers that the Age/SL differences between this and other leagues are pretty significant. One higher SL, yet one year older, is a far more critical consideration than most are used to looking at. Listing by total value could possibly also serve to drive up prices on the high-end players as more teams begin to recognize the really good buys that appear when compared to past auctions.
While I'm fine with either way, I think Andy's idea has merit and should definitely be considered as long as it's an easy adjustment for Al to make on the programming end.
