Midnight Caller Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 Happy to make up the numbers in the draft. Also happy to be nightwatchmen if others want to play. Cheers PJ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PWJ Posted June 25, 2022 Author Share Posted June 25, 2022 Okay we have enough for 8 teams of 5 people. We still need TWO from the draft list to step up as Captains.

VC! Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 I was going to sit this one out as Captain as I’m not overly keen on Winter racing, that and the fact I’ve won the last three comps as Captain I thought I’d give someone else a crack at being a winning Captain, however if no one else is keen I can Captain again and make it 4 in a row just saying 😎 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordy Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 Ok, put me down as a captain thanks Peter. I did captain the Blues once, unsuccessfully I might add. About time I put my hand up again. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back to the old drawing board, but you can rest assured cap'n Max will think of sumthin. MM Edited June 26, 2022 by Maximus 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hesi Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 You're a gifted analyst Ian, but I doubt you can do it again and select a team to take out this comp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the whole team is combining with the 'same race pick' to put the 5 opponent away simultaneously , they'd be a strong chance of pulling it off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same race pick has to win though, easier said than done. Please note, that the Reapers had the highest aggregate by some sizeable margin, yet finished well back. I have my first draft pick sorted, and seeing as I am first pick, that is set in stone. It will come as a surprise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
