Cool, my idea was to do it like normal from Round 1 anyway but it seemed the Random #1 pick was liked. 

[Samie]

I will give the possible newbie drafter till midnight to confirm  if he wants to play or not.  Then I'll do the selection order draw and we can begin in the morning or whenever. 

We're going with 14 it looks like. 

[Samie]

Selection Order

There were 14 items in your list. Here they are in random order:

    Drinks Sangria
    Linudden
    VBG
    Lastrador
    El Lobo
    Sarge
    PoetryInMotion
    Sheer Magnetism
    Tubby
    Hazell
    RobbieRedman
    Betty Blue
    Samie
    Crosby Nick

[Sarge]

So we starting tomorrow?

[Samie]

Yes Gramps.

[Sarge]

Cool, bed for you so young fella. Off you go.

[Drinks Sangria]

We are up and running. Linudden PM’d.

[El Lobo]

Do we know if Lastrador is *ahem* able to post? He went pretty hard on the Welsh last night, he might have pulled a Lobo 

[Crosby Nick]

Knocked out by Wales in the preliminary round of the Draft. A new low.

[El Lobo]

Samie didn't put a time limit in did he?

[Linudden]

Extensive bike ride last night and a nationwide holiday this Monday. Then the alarm clock didn't work on top of that. Sorry about that guys Consecutive nights of +9 hour sleep-ins.

[Crosby Nick]

If everyone picks the 90s/00s stalwarts and I go last, I can just replicate a great team from the 70s and have no peril whatsoever.

Do they have to have played together at club level, or can you have international too?

[El Lobo]

Nah club level

[Linudden]

You'd better hope the 13th pick had a really long career to be able to do that

[Hazell]

DS and Linudden, you do know you don't have to pick the players mentioned in the OP in the selection thread, right?

[Linudden]

He forced my hand, good luck finding a better team mate to Ronaldo than ZZ

[Hazell]

He forced my hand, good luck finding a better team mate to Ronaldo than ZZ

Have I misunderstood or you make your own first pick and then your next pick must have played with that player, and so in. So whoever DS has picked is irrelevant for you.

[El Lobo]

I'm gonna proper stitch Sarge up with my Francis Benali pick

[Linudden]

Aw Lobo

I picked Messi instead then.

[El Lobo]

Should have stuck with Zidane, Messi is draft poison now

[Linudden]

Linudden himself is draft poison so why not?

[Drinks Sangria]

That’s a nice change, thought Linudden was going straight for me then.

I know I didn’t have to pick Ronaldo, just never got him in a draft and he’s one of my favourite ever players.

[Hazell]

That’s a nice change, thought Linudden was going straight for me then.

I know I didn’t have to pick Ronaldo, just never got him in a draft and he’s one of my favourite ever players.

I was just messing, found it funny that the first two picks were exactly the same that were mentioned in the OP

[tubby]

Next draft should be what Linudden thought this one was.  You have to pick a player who played with the previous pick.

Would be carnage.

[El Lobo]

I think this'll be carnage in about 2 rounds when everyone starts to see the plans emerging and start tactical picking to piss people off

[Crosby Nick]

[vivabobbygraham]

Sorry all. Just got in. I'll have a think

[El Lobo]

….has he just pulled a Lewis Hamilton’s #1 Fan?

[Drinks Sangria]

Bobby choosing Mbappe -

[Crosby Nick]

Haha.

I think Bobby is just old before his time. He’s only 37 I think.

[Samie]

Bobby is 73

[Hazell]

Bobby choosing Mbappe -

[Sarge]

Haha.

I think Bobby is just old before his time. He’s only 37 I think.

His grandkids are 37.

[Crosby Nick]

His grandkids are 37.

They’re 3 and 7. And dress like Prince George.

[Sarge]

They’re 3 and 7. And dress like Prince George.

[El Lobo]

Seriously though….Lastrador might not be able to post Are there any lurking mods who can tell us, or you just gonna watch and laugh at us wait for two days?

[Samie]

I PM'd a mod when you brought it up before. Standby. 

[Sheer Magnetism]

Three picks in over 15 hours, is that a record for one of these?

[Crosby Nick]

There’s not many players left to choose from in fairness.
