Little addendum:

If I var_dump the $post variable in pre_populate_teams_dropdown I get this:

object(WP_Post)[8885]

So the first time it’s ok, but the second round it changes somehow.

And if I disable one of the dropdowns, it also seems to work ok. So this problem only occurs if both dropdowns are being pre_filled.
