(Yes yes, we've all done our home-work, so I'm not disclosing a hidden player here. But even if you've haven't done your home-work, you're welcome to him anyway. All yours.)

lol, Dan already choose that clause, so all is good..

 

[Jarquis]

I've basically told y'all who he'd have picked

 

[watson]

Presumably you'd pick someone from a game where Merchant was a match referee or something? Pretty obviously against the spirit of things if so, people would just tell you to do one.

He was also a radio commentator in the 60s and 70s if I remember rightly. Have to confirm though.

Now using that excuse for the Clause would be stretching the friendship.

 

[Jager]

Apparently Season 1 was 12 hours, but Season 2 had a 24 hour limit per pick. I've always assumed 24 hours after that

But I'm all for 12 hours!

That wasn't a standard pick-for-pick draft though, that's when we all sent our picks in at once and it sorted out afterwards. The rest have been 12

I might have the weakest collection of 4 players atm but really happy considering the clauses I've used.

Good to get rid of the nastier clauses because it leaves you free for the next 2 rounds. And I think the next 2 rounds will determine who 'wins' the Draft.

It's now make or break time.

Thinking that 24 hours is standard will be my Alzheimer's playing up again.

 

[Blakus]

Damn. Nearly every player I hoped would come back to me has been selected. Curse you all for being on the ball

 

[kingkallis]

Jager, draw the orders for Round 5 please.

 

[Dan]

Hmm, picking the clause is difficult here. And sorry for the delay, Uni wifi didn't want to work for me today.

Jager, we need a new order mate.

 

[Jarquis]

We're being ridiculously generous about the fertang clause IMO.

Featuring heavily isn't the same as having an article about you ffs

Yeah, it should be about that particular player, IMHO.

 

[Howe_zat]

I mean CW features me heavily but I'm not going to suggest it's all about me
