Ashes Draft

[NUFAN]

Overall career. Of course that doesn't stop you from picking top class Ashes performers if you want .

Sweet, I think I might do that.

Does it have to be just the one series for the decade, with 12 of us picking one of say 25-30 players I don't think it will be as interesting as picking a player who played in an Ashes contest in the entire decade..

 

[Himannv]

Personally I like the entire decade idea, but lets leave it up to Blakus.

Agreed, this is his thing. I'd rather see it restricted to one series per round, makes it more interesting when there's fewer great players on offer and you have to weigh up the dodgy picks. But maybe that's just me.

I prefer drafts where you have to think and carefully weigh up your choices. Gives me the opportunity to find out about lesser known players. So I think I'll stick with the series idea

 

[fredfertang]

Agree with Blakus 100% so always assuming my slot is still available I'm in

 

[Athlai]

I'm not in sorry.

 

[Blakus]

I'll get this thing started tomorrow. Need to go to bed now

In, In case you're not full yet.

 

[Blakus]

Ok, it was pretty easy to pick the series from the 2000's. As much as I wanted to pick the drubbing of 2006-007 I just can't go past the 2005 Ashes. Still the best and most entertaining series I've ever seen.

It's been nearly 12 hours for kk. What's the course of action here? Does their turn get skipped?

Yeah, the draft continues on without them. They can still make their pick though.

 

[Howe_zat]

Okay then. I'll take Ponting.
