CW Draft League - The Reserves

[watson]

It's hardly life and death is it

True.

But neither is waiting for a late bus, being putting on hold by Telstra ("your call is important to us"), being stuck in a traffic jam 15 minutes from home, a delayed flight, being stuck behind a slow driver in the over-taking lane, taking the day-off work for a tradesman who never turns up, and waiting for your girlfriend outside a movie theatre when the movie has just started.

 

[NUFAN]

The best thing to do is not give them an extra 12 hours or whatever it is for people who still haven picked in the previous round.


Phil Jaques (11) completes my team. I'll name the final batting order later but my XI is:

Merchant Jaques Jardine Irvine du Plessis Gregory Hendriks AmarSingh Tyson Bosenquet Croft.

 

[Cevno]

Eddie Barlow

 

[watson]

Eddie Barlow

Taken in Round 9.

These were the first 2 times, i have missed picks in this draft i believe.

[watson]

On Sunday it will be morgieb's go.

 

[Cabinet96]

Mohammad Asif (23)

 

[Jager]

Asif a gun choice.

 

[watson]

It's virtually impossible to tell - but I reckon as a rough guess that it's morgieb's turn.

I will also lay a bet of a 6-pack with anyone who wants to take me up on it that Round 12 will not be finished by mid-night GMT Christmas Day.

 

[morgieb]

Everton Weekes (48)
