You suck slats! ...lol
For everybody interested, I was talking to Slats on MSN after he picked Hadlee, I also didn't realise that Hadlee had been picked, I was saying how I was going to pick A.B. for my next pick!
Just a lesson for everyone - hold your cards close to your chests!!!

P.S. I guess that is payback for not voting for you isn't it Slats?

Most people try to do the opposite e.g. make posts about how rare this category is, or this player is injured etc ... all the while trying to push people in another direction in order to protect your next pick LOLMister Wright said:
Some under the table drafting strategy to remember

P.S. Mister Wright if you're heading out, or goin to bed, you can email me 3 possible players and I'll make your picks for you ... when Luckyeddie finally wakes up

My second and third innings are complete. I've kept Gavaskar's bowling stats there until we decide what we're going to do with batter's bowling stats.
I couldn't have Border, so I went for the next best, couldn't go past him.

In reply to a point made by Neil Pickup on the other thread:
The 10 game minimum refers to batting positions (opener, middle order and WK). The scoring system should be sufficient to police the positioning of players. If you place players who are primarilly batters in the bowling slots, then you'll do well in the batting categories, but you'll get completely swamped in the bowling categories, and probably finish in the bottom 3 or 4 at the end
I think that perhaps we should put a 100 wicket limit on qualification for bowling slots, and a 2000 run limit on the batting slots. We have 1 utility slot which can be used for either.
Is everyone OK with this?
