I only spotted yours after I'd posted mine. Fantastic attack. I also like your use of "o" and "/" - took me a minute to work that out.

Can I take it that my suggestion for a free pick in round 12 is ratified then? Big boss GI Joe has agreed and no-one's disagreed.

Yeah I have a good attack, just hoping to find a batsman who can bowl a bit as the 5th option. Wont mind if I dont get it though - My 4 are good enough :D

And yeah I used o, / , o / or / o, + to signify their roles in my team ;)

Damn non pickers ruining my team -- this is a problem for future versions of the draft.

Say we've had the following order

Bat
Pace
Me (Optimal to t/o and pass the bad taboo combo on)
Play X " "
Player Y " "
ect.

It should never be optimal to t/o a pick...
