Sheep Draft Version 3.0

Also disagree with weldone being allowed Dravid. Think it should be pretty clear that when the question is asked is when the cut off is. It's not a competition about who's online at the right time. The fact the people who answered correctly in 4a and 4b never had the opportunity to pick him is reason enough IMO.

A very valid point IMO.

 

[Howe_zat]

Yeah. When in doubt, the important thing to hold up is that the question doesn't change from a to b to c.

[G.I.Joe]

Sorry for the delay. I was out. I've mailed you now, NUFAN.

[Howe_zat]

Tremendous bonus to get even one of the players I picked.

Such a random looking side I'm cobbling together.

 

[Blakus]

Damn you Neil!

 

[weldone]

bloody hell....how can people pick Peter Kirsten??

That's what I thought of asking you...

 

[NUFAN]

Some pretty awesome Cricketers were successfully chosen for round 9! I wonder how many players from round 8 will make their teams final XI's..

 

[Himannv]

Sent two more answers. Fairly confident that one won't be accepted but I have some hopes that I can get the other one right.

EDIT: Changed it before sending after reading NUFAN's last post. Should give me a better chance.

 

[Spikey]

Really happy with 7. In retrospect I could have done better with 9. 8 meh.

 

[Himannv]

I wonder how many players from round 8 will make their teams final XI's..

I have a feeling mine will. He's not bad plus I already have three sheep.

 

[Spikey]

Or maybe I'm really happy with who I got at 9.
