As we enter the business end of the tournament, some players have more picks to make than others. AndyZaltzHair still needs 8 picks. Red Hill still needs 6. At the other end of the spectrum, Milenko needs 2 and Stephen and Teuton both only need 3 more players. Good luck to all.

Oldfield is before O’Reilly (and yes, I did check that before picking!)

You are absolutely correct. I went by the statsguru results page, but you correctly went by the player pages, which list Oldfield before O'Reilly.

Statsguru player pages list Mc and Mac names before Ma names (with the exception of Mace). Player pages ignore the apostrophe when listing players. When getting back results from a search, it orders the Mc and Mac names the same way the player pages do, but it lists the apostrophe'd names before the other names. I'm really glad I specified the player pages in my initial set of rules.

I will amend.

Curious fact I noticed while looking through an alphabetical player list for this draft: the 4 Murrays who kept wicket in Tests (David, Deryck and Junior for WI and John for England) all had virtually the same batting average: David 21.46, Deryck 22.90, Junior 22.39 and John 22.00. The other Test-playing Murrays (Anton for SA, Bruce and Darrin for NZ) were also all between 20 and 24.
