CW Draft League

[Jager]

That'd be great, I could only find ~15 myself and that's just not enough seeing as a whole bunch of those players will be taken from other clauses - that's my main concern.

Fair enough re the concern.

However, Himannv has used the Fred Clause already and so it seems as though we should keep it IF possible. I'll post the list this evening then we can see what the folk say.

Was I the only one who thought fredfertang feature meant "pick an old guy" or "pick someone awesome".

Or "pick someone named Douglas, Stan, or Harold"

We're going to have to veto the Tangy article clause, there just aren't enough players. Any idea of how you want to replace it, Howe?

I found at least 20 and I only looked through half the articles. It's a bit time consuming to search through them, but other than that it's a perfectly acceptable clause imo.

In the 'Archive' section of 'Cricket Web Features' I managed to find 35 biographies with Martin's name to them. He kicks off (I think) on September 2009 with Harold Larwood. There is also Barrington, Tyson, Cowie, and Ponting to name but a few.

I'm even thinking of leaving the 'Fred Clause' to last since it's very broad in scope. Only one keeper though, but he's a goodie.

Kyear gets a double?

Yea. these are hard.

Sachin Tendulkar

[Red]

I think you have another pick kyear.

 

[Himannv]

That was his second pick.

 

[watson]

Malcolm Marshall
Lords

Malcolm Marshall is the 11th pick!

I don't think he's ever lasted that long before in a Draft, but I guess that's the beauty of Clause Drafts.

 

[Howe_zat]

Cut to see Tendy go, wanted to pick him up as having captain against Mark Taylor. Was my one good planned move.

Yeah, I've got my next 3 picks mapped out too. They're obtuse enough to slip under the radar, but someone is more-or-less bound to beat me to them. We shall see!
