Because someone disagreeing with you can only be due to ignorance...

Was going to go for Laker if I had a chance in round 2 or 3. Thought for sure he would have missed the cut. Shocked tbh, especially with Grimmett missing the cut.
Oh well that nature of game I guess.

In this case, probably yes.
Oh no, can be part of tactics as well, as NUFAN has already pointed out...

Yeah this makes me think that some are the games greatest players were overlooked cause we all thought someone else will nominate him.
I've gone for all good players so to be safe some of you should pick average players to avoid nominating a banned player.

I'm quite certain all the people taking part know all about Grimmett and how his record compares to Laker's.

If you sit down and list off the 30 top cricketers, you quickly realize you can't fit all the great players in the list. There are lots of very good players who missed the cut.Yeah this makes me think that some are the games greatest players were overlooked cause we all thought someone else will nominate him.

Of course. There is a hundred years of history. That means an average of only three players per decade will make the cut.
I mean you can name probably half a dozen great players just from the 80s. Obviously not everyone who is a champion is going to be picked

Same. My fifteen players are the fifteen who I think are probably some of the best players in history. All of them deserve to be there.Yeah this makes me think that some are the games greatest players were overlooked cause we all thought someone else will nominate him.

That's why I believed what NUFAN said to be true...Part of tactics for some, you know...Otherwise I bet it wouldn't have been like this...

I picked mine based on who I'd pick in an AT squad of 15

I think since I am not taking part in this draft, it won't be unfair for me to say whom I chose as the 15 best players since WWI in the mail sent to Matt79, and the rationale behind it. No, I absolutely didn't use any tactics here (as they might backfire at times, ask NUFAN ), and I chose the 15 players whom I would have chosen (more or less) if I had to make a 15 member squad -
UNDRAFTED PLAYERS GALORE!
If the post-WWI constraint was not there, I might have chosen Barnes in place of UNDRAFTED SEAM BOWLER.
