Clause-Mystery-Choice Draft Thread 2014

[Riggins]

I'm not even playing and counting ODI's ****ing annoys me.

 

[AldoRaine18]

Hey, guys, I am not a 100% about this. I didn't mean to include ODIs, and as such, I do think Aldo's pick is a little iffy.

Your call mate. I'll be happy to change the pick if it goes against the intention of the draft.

 

[harsh.ag]

Yeah. Aldo, sorry buddy, but seeing that everyone always takes only tests into account (unless stated otherwise), I have to rescind your selection. Would be unfair to the others.

 

[harsh.ag]

Apologies for this guys. Will make sure to specify from now on.

No worries whatsoever.

In before someone picks a player who satisfied the clause in Under 13s park cricket.

I must say I was surprised that Arthur Mailey didn't get picked in Round 1.

There were a few good ones, but Anderson probably the stiffest to miss out.
