SUMMER SUPER DRAFT COMP DRAFT THREAD - Draft is Tuesday 11th Jan - 8.00pm NZ time (6.00pm Oz time)

[PWJ]

Summer Super Comp Draft 8.00pm NZ time (6.00pm Oz) Tuesday Jan 11

We have enough players for 9 teams 

First round next weekend will be Gold Coast and Trentham (and maybe one from Flemington).

How the draft will work -

Each Captain will have 90 secs to submit a draft pick (if they have not already submitted an email to me containing their draft order). Captains, 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.

Doing some slashing this morning, so going to re-invoke(dig up), the Grim Reapers.  They have never done anything, so maybe this time, as I have a chance to beat Howie to claim Geoff

[VC!]

Team name OffNGone 

[TooFast]

I hope Geoff's still there when I come in at No. 27 ! 🙂

It gives me great pleasure to announce the name of our new team for the summer comp. Surf N Turf.

Our motto: "Eat or be eaten".

Howie, You're the only Cap who gets two picks in the first 10 draft choices plus you will be all done when the dregs of the final 8 unchosen are fought over - I'd say you were looking good provided no one steals the Plodder in the first 8 picks....

It gives the Mustelid great pleasure to announce that he hath not yet come up with a team name, for a variety of reasons. Not least is that he knoweth not who his team consists of, and Max likes to get team approval of the name before Round 1. He also has to invent a name that is short, easy to spell, outrageously klever, and does not cause The Legendary Scorer any grief (too many letters etc).

As Rachel once said; it may not happen overnight but it will happen.

Always the rogue Max...

No Panteening around here mate. Keep it clean.... 😜

indeed, Rayzor Sharp ...sometimes inspiration cometh quite quickly and sometimes not at all. Will be fab to see who you pick as #1 in the Draft!

MM

It will be! The curse of the first pick has ruined the chances of many highly sought after players and as a consequence the team that select them. I just can't bring myself to jinx any Turbo players so instead I'll be looking outside the Turbo box. Having said that, Turbos line up 2-5 on my list. 

So, for reasons of form, reputation or just plain sabotage the following people have come into serious consideration to carry the curse of the first pick. 

In no particluar order.. Maurice, Geoff, Gordy, Jack, Richie, Sharne, Tom.

Funnily enough my first pick is in those names.

[Hesi]

Sharne or Gordy
