Default 1: Leland Hone 1877-80 (2 catches in 1 test was next best after Blackham)
Default 2: Ken Wadsworth 1969
Default 3: Adam Parore 1999

I can at this point complete my XI by picking the R11 player too from 1913-14. Himmanv has already picked R10 from 1913-14 and the player I am going to pick will have not possible clash with anyone in R11. Should I go ahead?
yeah, might as well
OK, jumping into R11 pick.
