[ataraxia]

Dale Steyn

Was really hoping he'd slip through...

 

[ataraxia]

Red Hill times out, and I'll take Fred Trueman.

[Pothas]

Steve Smith

 

[trundler]

I'll take Saeed Anwar. Smith, Smith, Sobers, Sutcliffe, Simpson all gone. I was certain I'd get at least one of those. Nevertheless this should bump me to somewhere close to the top of the pecking order, no?

 

[trundler]

If I'm not wrong it should give me another pick

 

[Teuton]

I'm pretty sure Saeed Anwar would give you a double pick.

The first S was Sangakkara.

Red still has a catch up pick too.

 

[stephen]

If I'm not wrong it should give me another pick

Yep.

 

[trundler]

Anwar
Boycott
Ponting
Tendulkar
Flower
Armstrong
Imran
Cameron

[stephen]

Is no one going to talk about the pro gamer move I just pulled

No, I'm still bitter at losing Tendulkar.

 

[trundler]

That's what ya get for taking Simpson

 

[Teuton]

I was just rushing to pick Trumper.

Yep it was a great move. You lost a point for having to ask if it was ok . I doubt if Hannibal asked permission from the Romans when executing his tactics

I like that there a few tactics that we can employ in this draft, but you need to do most of them and pick the right time to be successful.

 

[Pothas]

We have all done now. Old move.

 

[stephen]

I'll take Maurice Tate.

 

[Pothas]

I'll take Maurice Tate.

Oh what

 

[stephen]

The remaining folks on S:
Michael -> Pothas -> Andrew -> AZH -> hb

RH can jump in when he pleases.

 

[stephen]

Oh what

I needed a bowler and I also had two picks to make. Rather than roll the dice on my W pick and hope for sometime half decent on Y or Z, I took Tate

 

[trundler]

Oh what

Set the trend with Cameron and Flower though
