Sheep Draft version 5.0

[watson]

Better than just 'meh' IMO.

You're such a tease.

 

[NUFAN]

I'm not going to put up the results until 6 or so tonight. uvelocity said he's going away over the weekend and I wrote back to him and said that it's okay, I'll slow it down a bit - just for the weekend.

Anyone who is bored waiting might want to look back at the banned players list and the players already chosen list..

 

[Spikey]

nah eat ****, ****

 

[NUFAN]

nah eat ****, ****

That's what you'll be doing with your 3 sheep, ****. Or maybe not..

 

[Spikey]

sheep mainly eat grass, clover and forbs ftr

 

[NUFAN]

Oh good. At least the **** you'll be eating will be healthy.

request that NUFAN be removed as host of this draft as it cannot be guaranteed that he will be neutral towards all it's participants

 

[adub]

I'm bored, but I've already looked back at the banned list and selections. Drinking a new coffee sent in a sample pack that I'm supposed to provide an opinion on. Wondering how to phrase 'it tastes like ****ing dirt' in a way to be most helpful.

Also if Morgie thinks his team is 'meh' I will selflessly offer to swap my outstanding team of world beaters for his rank no hopers. I know, I know, it's far too generous an offer, but it's just the kinda guy I am.

[Spikey]

ill take it

 

[fredfertang]

Would've been amazed if I hadn't got my pick for 7, but surprised and delighted to get the other two

 

[Spikey]

you picked Voce didnt you

 

[fredfertang]

you picked Voce didnt you

Did think about it, but it wasn't him

 

[watson]

MEMO: Fred now winning, stress free, and sitting pretty.

 

[NUFAN]

Fred's round 8 pick being unique surprised me. 5 Shaun Pollocks also surprised me.

 

[Red]

Re-sent for this round.

Great questions Nufan….proving to be worthwhile challenges to find unique players, but not impossible.

MEMO: Fred now winning, stress free, and sitting pretty.

I wish, still it gives me a bit of time to prepare for my rapidly approaching court battle with the evil Mrs Fertang

 

[NUFAN]

Just for question 8 and all questions actually.. If I say career, I'm talking about Test career.

Glad that the questions are proving a bit challenging Monk.
