[Jamee999]

Justin Langer, please.

 

[Magrat Garlick]

****ing well hang you heads in shame shark draftees.

Don't blame me.

Rahul McDravid.

 

[Jamee999]

I thought that Hammond was before the cut-off, for some reason...

Edit: Sorry, I was so shocked that I couldn't express my thoughts in words.

 

[NUFAN]

I don't know why there is so much shock.

Someone may have picked him, I've picked a few players like Pollock who didn't make the cut, so the cut would be at 2 or 3 perhaps?

We only have 15 picks, if we all had 31 picks, almost all of the shocks would stop occurring.

 

[chaminda_00]

I'm pretty sure I picked Hammond as well, must be 3 picks aleast.

Anyway banking on another true great to fall through the cracks. George Headley.

Hopefully I end this draft with the most rejections, story of of my life.

 

[Matt79]

Justin Langer, please.

Accepted.

Rahul McDravid.

McDravid? Surprised you're taking a Scot-Indian who played one test for England in 1922, but whatever - Accepted.

George Headley

Accepted.

Round 5 - Nufan to lead us off I believe.

From here on people get one attempt to repick before demotion.

 

[chaminda_00]

Are you still drunk Matt. WTF?

 

[Matt79]

Thought it was fairly obvious that I AM!

Nag, just making the humour.

 

[Somerset]

George Headley's accepted?? Wow.

 

[NUFAN]

Denis Compton to bolster my middle order.
