Re: Draft Thread

What about :D

Selecting the teams, then letting the teams decide on the team name?

i'd prefer to have the team names worked out before the draft so i can work on the fixtures but if fred and toonarmy are really struggling then we could start the draft first.

So i'm guessing if the Captains a bowler... he can only pick 3 more...?

minimum of 4 bowlers, there is no maximum on the number of bowlers
 
Re: Draft Thread

The draft is a good idea, but it could take a long time to select everyone. If each captain is able to make one pick a day, then that's 11 days, but you may well find it takes a lot longer.

Maybe you can get the four captains online at a certain time together, and do it in one hit.
 
Re: Draft Thread

Like a Sunday 6-10 or something. Makes sense. I would be available around then. Anyone else?

The selected captains are all guys who can be relied on to make this draft process as quick as possible. I don't think that the draft will still be going past the weekend.

Good idea @|

Captains can you all be online tonight at around 9pm? or what scotty said. @|

Shouldn't the order be reversible? So SS, TA, SD, F, F, SD, TA, SS ect.

Yea, I thought that, cos fred always gets last pick otherwise

Shouldn't matter but someone having 2 picks in a row makes for a quicker draft so i'll say yes @|
 
Re: Draft Thread

Number one draft pick, what a gun I am. @|

I've also altered the opening post, we now have 42 players.
 
Re: Draft Thread

Disagree LJP, since the Caribbean Crusaders went down, you've been nothing, you were carried by great cricketers in that side...

It was a formality you'd go #1, obviously SouthSwans likes players with no cricketing ability in his side @|
