You're a fucker, you 

Agree with Nick, had three of the best centre halves ever to grace the game available, but the pool is so much deeper than in midfield, so I took the best central midfielder available who I can then build around. It always feels as though one incredible defender and a couple of average midfielders is worse than a world class midfielder with two good defenders.

 

[El Lobo]

Matthaus is a good pick wherever really....but there's more than enough top CMs from my 'short' list.

Awaiting Samie's shout of 'Nick has picked your grandad'.

I think he's far more subtle with his comedy than you give him credit for.

I'm also absolutely not expecting shouts of 'the goat shagger' in the next 4/5 picks

He's text her his next pick. Jo to lead the line.

I like the classics, so sue me. 

Desert Red has got the votes of the Paraguayan prison system.

I might go pre 80’s. What a team I could create. No one will vote for it, in fact my task in this draft is to get nil pwa

In this draft I think it’s essential to get a few older generations picked.

[Samie]

Where's PIM?  He was online not so long ago.

Of all the people in this draft, I think you're the most capable

Yep. Rich pickings in the 60’s-70’s. Catenacchio, sweepers, 442, no wingers 🤥

All pretty safe and 'boring' picks so far, Lastrador must be fuming. I'm looking forward to his out of the blue first pick.

My idea for a team when I was going to join in, was to do it backwards. South american defence with a Italian/German attack.

My first pick would have confused the lot of you.

How have we got so slow in these drafts?

It’s only PiM. Fuck him off. Next

[Samie]

 

I know who he will pick, he knows who he will pick.

[Linudden]

We should have some more generous time limits like four hours for the first rounds or this is going to be getting ridiculous

I thought we’d agreed that before, mate but may have been mistaken. First rounds have always been slow but this one takes the fucking biscuit. Got me black and white photos sorted and everyfink

[Samie]

Is that pic from your personal photo album?

[Drinks Sangria]

Maybe a way to combat is to send a PM to every participant when the drafting is open, I didn't know this one had begun until we were several hours into drafting. Might just give people an idea of when they may have to check the thread.

Perhaps move away from the 1 day in the first round rule down to like 4 hours or so, then an hour a pick from round 2 onwards.

[Crosby Nick]

Think we need to fix the picking order by time zone.

[Samie]

Classic Rawk Draft.

Might be overly complicated but fairer!

I think we're waiting on a US-based drafter, then there's a string of UK, a Swede and a couple of I-don't-know-whats.

[AndyMuller]

I thought we had Brexit because of shit like this?!

[Elzar]

I say send a PM giving a start time and do a time limit first round from now on.

[Samie]

PIM, Where are you? Letsbe Avenue!

Knobheads?

[El Lobo]

Much as I like PiM (and Sheer yesterday was the same) I feel like if its your pick, and you've been online but still don't go, then its kinda fair game if you get skipped....

Evening gentlemen, Samie.

He’s as good as his word.
