Bradman Connection Draft Voting

[Line and Length]

With just 10 teams to judge, voting should be a little easier. Please nominate the best 3 teams from those below. I would like to have all participants voting as well as 'outsiders'.
Thanks again to all involved.

Feels like there were less options in this draft, which is an interesting change. Poor Kenny Viljoen has even picked himself..

 

[Line and Length]

We appear to have a 3 way tie. Do we have a tie breaker (vote for 1 of the 3) or shall I declare 3 equal winners?

The draft is so close and a bit obscure that a 3 way winner will feel right imo

 

[Line and Length]

It seems the voting is complete and we have a 3 way tie.

6 - Fuller Pilch, Patience and Accuracy+Gut, Line and Length
4 - ataraxia, Pothas
3 - AndrewB, Bitmap, Teuton
1 - capt_Luffy

I will follow @capt_Luffy 's advice and declare 3 way winners.

There was merit and weaknesses in all teams and this is reflected in the voting. It was a difficult draft with numerous players cropping up who are rarely, if ever, mentioned in other drafts.

My comments on the 3 winners.

Fuller Pilch - I thought this was one of the better balanced XIs and deserved to be on the podium.
Patience and Accuracy+Gut - tail seems a bit long with Tallon at 8. Otherwise a solid team.
Line and Length - Good openers and front-line bowlers. Middle order is "iffy".

Thanks to all participants and to all those who added votes and comments. I enjoyed conducting a draft with a challenge.

 

[Teuton]

Thanks for running it @Line and Length.

Congratulations on the win too! And to Fuller & PAGas well of course.

I t was a difficult draft with numerous players cropping up who are rarely, if ever, mentioned in other drafts.

This was the best part

 

[capt_Luffy]

Thanks for running this draft @Line and Length . It certainly was one of the more challenging ones and several players popped up about whom I have never even heard. Congrats to you, Fuller Pilch and P&A+G for winning this tricky one.
