I think that Blakus is on the right track with his last pick, therefore....

Ave. 25-40 = JHB Waite = 30.44

Watson's XI

03. Walter Hammond
04. Dudley Nourse

I'll take Archie Jackson via the US President clause. He shares a last name with Andrew Jackson - the seventh President. Nice to get that one out the way.

Cheers mate. Really enjoying the draft so far.

Had real trouble with this pick - probably the most in any of the drafts thus far. Jackson definitely not the best quality player left, but the US [Vice] President clause has hardly any quality names left.

Howe_zat · 30-09-2012, 05:02 PM

Sincerely disappointed with the lack of pisstakes re: women's cricketers

My first pick would've been Claire Taylor under the clause "Shares a name with a US president"

Jackson - Gets rid of a difficult Clause and fills one of your empty top 3 batting spots at the same time. Very clever!

Les Ames (Played in AUS, ENG and WI).
