I think a few people will be annoyed not going for a few more very solid Test Cricketers instead of just going for the best on offer..

 

[Pothas]

Probably the inevitable reaction to what happened last time round.

 

[AldoRaine18]

Haha looks like I used all my luck in the last one.

 

[NUFAN]

Just waiting on Monk and Fred.

[watson]

Just to confirm that I picked up player 4 from Round 1.

 

[NUFAN]

Just to confirm that I picked up player 4 from Round 1.

Yes you got him.

I did write that there is a chance a couple of players from the banned list above were chosen in round 1 too. I prob should have written successfully chosen in round 1.

 

[Howe_zat]

Big advantage to have an XI. Means you can afford to only pick players who're better than those you've got.

 

[Howe_zat]

Trevor Goddard is on both the banned and chosen list for round 1 but Ross Taylor is on neither

i've confused myself

 

[Howe_zat]

There are actually several more of my r1 players on neither list

 

[NUFAN]

Trevor Goddard is on both the banned and chosen list for round 1 but Ross Taylor is on neither

i've confused myself

The chosen in round 1 list so be 'people picked tjese guys in round 2 but were unsuccessful as they are in round 1 teams already' I dont know what ive done with goddard right now but dont pick him this round.

Everyone under the initial heading banned players are banned.

 

[NUFAN]

I like this draft as I get to see the tactics people use and find it funny when the same player gets targetted.

I hate this draft because working out if a player has been successfully chosen or banned isnt fun.

 

[Saint Kopite]

I will improve!

 

[weldone]

1 in round1, 2 in round 2 - need 8/8 now haha
