PWJ Posted January 5, 2023 Author Share Posted January 5, 2023 OKAY - Here's the update. Nine teams of 5 We need 3 from the draft list to put their hands up to be Captains. I see some very capable leaders in the draft list - Craig, Ray, Howie, Rob, Jack, Maria, Robert, Tom, Smiler, Richie, Rees, etc. Just need 3 of you guys to step up CAPTAINS Max Graeme Rex Ian Hesi Roland DRAFT Allovertheform Blind Squirrel Craig Gary Gee Geoff Gordy Harewood Heather Howie Jack Jamison Jason Jen Lightning Blue Mardy Maria Maurice Moose Pam PJ Punter Pete Ray Rees Richie Rob Robert Sarah Secret Squirrel Sharne Smiler Steve P Stevie N Tassie Tiger Tom Tonkatime Trotslover Wrinkles Ziggy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maximus Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 4 hours ago, Hesi said: You don't need computer skills Graeme Being a captain involves the following 1. Picking a team during the draft, and a team name. A list in order of preference can be submitted to PJ in advance if you do not want to do it live 2. Making sure all your 4 team members post selections each week. If they don't then you have to put in a set of selections for them in the 30 min grace period before PJ shuts it off. There is a further 30 minutes after that before the comp starts each week 3. Subbing in any scratchings any team members who post early, before the scratching deadlines for Aussie at 10.00 am or NZ at 8.00 am, may have picked. I usually post a set of scratchings for the races online at 8.05 and 10.05 4. Some captains have a group PM(optional) to exchange banter, strategy and tips. Ian is very good at this lol 5. Thanking the opposing team at the end of the day(optional) Max would like to add to that list ... 6 Deciding when to play the Joker(s) for Double/Triple points Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maximus Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 I see an entry in the draft from That Darn Cat ...has his recent startling form encouraged him to reach for the stars...or has PJ been needling him to enter and got under his fur?

Hesi Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 There are a small number of people and other, who have indicated that they will stand aside if any others especially from the Xmas/New year comp still wish to join, but don't leave it too late Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
