Sheep Draft version 5.0

Question 3b is proving to be rather unforgiving.

This is only my second Sheep Draft, but I don't recall any other previous question with so many outstanding drafters going into round 'c' - seven in all.

That's not my style. It was just an observation and nothing more than that.

After all, whether you get a Sheep or not is just a matter of pure luck as evidenced by Bill Edrich cancelling out three picks. Who'd have thought?

Nah there were always more drafters than good players, so if you didn't get lucky in round 1 you were always ****ed

Re-sent for the Best/Friend clause. Trying not to overthink it.

Maybe not, I went for Adcock, but obviously Watson got there first.

Bob and I had the same pick three times in a row for Q4. Gilchrist, Sangakara and the strangely unnamed third pick (which I will leave to n00fers to reveal).
 

NUFAN

Yeah I probably should have mentioned the fails.
Q4
Monk - Gayle
Pothas - Aravinda
Riggins didn't pick

Q5
Adub and Weeman both picked Barrington

Q6
Adub - Adcock
Valer - Goddard.

If you guys help give out sheep for the fails, I'll start the next 3 questions..
