We have already set a precedent of being a little flexible with the clauses. Therefore Guyana should be OK.

Or put it this way. If you currently walked into the Guyana Cricket Club foyer you'd probably see a plaque on the wall listing the clubs famous players. It would be headed 'Guyana Cricket Club - Famous Players', and Walcott would be on it.
Fair enough!

Could people double check their own picks and clauses to make sure I haven't made any screw ups?

Eds should absolutely have Walcott. Still think he was wrong to do the order though.

Jager's decision as to whether he wants to use the order or not. Don't really see what the problem was - anyone else could have done the order if they'd have asked?

You're Marcuss, your opinion does not count due to its general lack of quality.

Don't really see the issue/problem with someone besides Jager doing the draft order (he must be having a big weekend!), so I've chucked them (R. 5 & 6) in to the updated list above.

Hmmm. You do get that golden double pick though. Makes planning a touch easier imo!

Where is Marcuss? UK? I want to pick!

Golden double pick? I already did that in 1st round. Give anyone else a chance to go for the 'golden' double pick...

Yes, he'll be sleeping like a baby.

Wonder whether Eds tucked him into bed and sung him a lullaby.
