Mediocrity Draft

[NUFAN]

tbf that was just a joke than ran out of steam. see also http://www.cricketweb.net/forum/testing-forum/69791-cricketers-who-sound-bit-like-cheeses-draft.html

That was one of the gouda drafts.

 

[NUFAN]

I'm not in btw. I'd rather just someone name an ordinary side and discuss it.

 

[Teuton]

So we're up to 6. 3 more anywhere?

 

[Red]

ok

 

[Howe_zat]

7 teams will do?

 

[AndrewB]

I was about to post that I'll take part if you need a couple more, but if you want to go ahead with 7, feel free.

 

[Shady Slim]

7 could do though i'll give to midday tommorrow (15hrs) and if we get one more at most or we get to that time (whatever's first) we start

 

[Shady Slim]

so we did have nine people wtf i can't count

round one is as follows

Howe
Pothas
hb
Teuton
mr
NZT
Shady
Red Hill
AndrewB

round two is the opposite

AndrewB
Red Hill
Shady
NZT
mr
Teuton
hb
Pothas
Howe

rules:
-we have a ten hour limit between picks but Howe can have a day to kick us off
-we rank all the teams after all picks are in (and others are welcome to), the team with the fifth most vote wins most mediocre
-we try to pick mediocre teams too remember, not bad, just mediocre
-also try to keep a semblance of something looking like a real team don't just pick eleven mediocre players
-have fun and play in the spirit of mediocre online competitions
-they have to have played a test (retrospectively added after howe's bradman pick but it doesn't disqualify any picks made at time of adding)

 

[Howe_zat]

Don Bradman

 

[mr_mister]

interesting

 

[cnerd123]

interesting

he's going with Bradman and 10 spuds I guarantee you

interesting strategy

 

[Teuton]

Out of the box but why not. The chance to draft Bradman almost never comes around.

Next month ... Howe starts the "players you have drafted in recent drafts" draft.

 

[Teuton]

So who's up?

 

[honestbharani]

I think I am up now and I pick the height of mediocrity known to cricket - Allan Border ​

 

[Shady Slim]

Howe: Don Bradman
Pothas

Quite probably.
