Submit your draft order to me as a PM if you don't want to participate in the Live Draft If you don't pick and post in 90 seconds the next Captain will be invited and then the option will return to you once and once only once the next Captain has taken their turn. If you fail to select a 2nd time I will randomly draw a player from the Draft Pool for your team.

PWJ Posted March 8, 2021 Author Share Posted March 8, 2021 Here's a heads-up on how the "Bye" team will compete. Each week there will be a team having their bye week, however it will not be a week off. Picks will need to be submitted as usual. The Captain of the "bye team" can choose which of the other 3 matches they choose for their team to compete in. e.g. Seagulls vs Numptys Batbums vs Wombats Cockys v Cobbers Ratbags - bye So the Ratbag's skipper has to choose one of the 3 matches above in which they would like their side to compete. There are no head-to-heads for the 'bye" team. They are simply pitting their aggregate against that of the other two sides. If they beat one of the other teams' aggregate scores, they score one point. If they beat the aggregate of both teams they score two points. They are also eligible for a bonus point for a team profit. So the maximum they can score is 3 points. They can also choose to use a Joker in their Bye week if they choose. This should add some interest to the comp. Captains can canvass their team or go alone with their choice of clash. The Captain of the Bye team has until Midnight on Friday to announce who their opponents will be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maximus Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 (edited) What the flock is a numpty? A camel with no sense of feeling? Whatever it is, Max reckons it comes from the Land of the Bouncing Kangaroo and the Blind Platypus. Therefore it will either bite, sting, poison and/or irritate you to Death if you let it. Avoid the Numptys, peeple. MM PS: The Batbums don't eve bear thinkin' about... butt whatever you do, don't let 'em get behind you!

The Oxford English Dictionary has launched a search to find the first recorded use in English of the word 'numpty', which means a foolish or stupid person. Since the mid-1980s, numpty has been used as a mild term of abuse in Britain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maximus Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 Oxford English Dictionary researchers are considering adding the name 'batbums' as a description of the Australian cricket team. MM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
