Mediocrity Draft

[Shady Slim]

very confused by hb's strategy

i'll take the recently retired two metre Peter Fulton (who apparently has a first class fourfer lol)

 

[honestbharani]

Lol I am juz picking favorites and hoping there is enough mediocrity in there.

 

[NZTailender]

Adam Parore
Alan Mullally

 

[Shady Slim]

not necessarily a bad player - actually decent - but probably a decent shout for unremarkable (sorry i was out at a party and missed my turn technically)

Peter Nevill

 

[Shady Slim]

feel we've had a whole lot of skippages but continue

 

[honestbharani]

Red Hill's go right?

 

[Shady Slim]

well we've actually had five buzzings since my go

speaks volumes about the inactivity of cw around this time we were still well on the front page of the website

 

[honestbharani]

I m assuming then I can pick.. Nathan Astle

 

[Teuton]

Let's get this ​moving again then.

Roshan Mahanama

 

[Pothas]

Shane Watson

 

[Howe_zat]

Excellent, great work

I'll pick Tim Bresnan before anyone else does, though I'll have to pick some very poor players next to make up for it

 

[mr_mister]

Neil Fairbrother

 

[honestbharani]

I assume I get to make the next pick too.. Gavin Hamilton... Coz, every side NEEDS a seam bowling all rounder at 6.

 

[Teuton]

Dinesh Ramdin

mr > andrewb > pothas

with red to catch up (as soon as he finds another marsh)

 

[Red]

Hamish Marshall

 

[mr_mister]

Wally Grout

 

[AndrewB]

Maurice Read (mainly on the grounds that he was my great-great-uncle, and this draft might be the best opportunity to pick him )
