itbt = If truth be told.

This is an example as to why Heath has a phobia of acronyms

 

[Mister Wright]

Guyana picks sent.

Please confirm.

 

[Dark Hunter]

I'm unable to send them from here, as our school emails don't let us send to hotmail accounts. Is it alright if i send them tonight from home, seeing as i'm just within the two hour deadline, and would have sent them now if i could. Completely understand if you say no. Apologies, misread the deadline, thought it was midnight.

You could always post your choices in this thread tbh. Everyone else has made their choices so they're hardly going to change their picks in regards to yours...

Couldn't change their choices even if they wanted to. The deadline has passed.

My point, really.

My point, really.

I just worded it better...

If possible Myles can you post them here. I can understand if you can't access your email at school. But you could have emailed them anytime over the last two days. I'll give you half an hour to post.

I hate you, but im pretty sure Hay will be playing for Colts by the start of the season.

17. Auckland - K Amarnath

Right. Now I'm worried I've picked a lemon as I think this guy was my number one. Obviously he was not favoured by anyone else... What have I done???

As a query... do younger players improve quicker than older ones? Do players improve at all? I think there was a key assumption to both of these questions in my picks... Oh dear Heath.

Nah good stuff Heath. I'll take care of this one though but if you have any suggestions on who to pick email them to me. It's zgelman at hotmail if you don't have it already. I'll try get it in extra early this time as well.

Most guys went for batsmen this round. He has the potential to be one of the top bowlers FC cricket. So you picked a pretty good player. Younger players don't improve faster.

Phew. I was expecting to get the cardboard box when I turn up to training tomorrow.

Just a reminder to all managers, there will be two less rounds in this draft, due to reduction of squad sizes, as mentioned in the other thread. This means that teams have 8 rounds to finalise their squads instead of 10. Make sure by the end of the draft all teams have 3 keepers. This really important for guys to remember who kept 17 players, as you only have 5 draft rounds left.

Duly noted, thanks Tharmi.
