We need one more to get 16. I'll start tomorrow around lunch time with either 14 or 16 ( Betty was in if it was 15 plus him).

We already have shit in the country, and the game of Liverpool fills life with joy. Thanks

If any of you regulars have a sleeper account that you have in case of emergency now is the time to step forward and register an interest.

By the way, if anyone wanted to suggest any rounds, send them to me, as I have a load but I'm sure you all have interesting ideas.

I assume over 31 is current players, and we can’t just pick players who have retired?

All players must still be active, and any dates/cut offs will be as of today 28 June. (caps, age etc)

Love the link to the original sheep draft (I guess). It was a cricket one. Me and blurred ended up with Aftab Habib and Chris Cowdrey as our final two picks so I’m guessing it didn’t go to plan.

Pretty much the past season or so - It's impossible to make people vote for an exact time frame really.

Anyone is welcome to change their pick up until deadline by the way. If we get all picks in early I will just move onto the next round.

I obviously misunderstood how this draft works

If he's being asked to head the ball too frequently - which isn't exactly his specialty - it could affect his ear and cause an infection. Especially if the ball hits him on the ear directly.

Gold.



Thanks for the tip. I'm going to take great pleasure in blocking him.

Anyone who names their picks in here will get torpedoed by me. Since I won the last draft, I'll happily take one for the team in this one by sabotaging all attempts to use this strategy.

What if others post names too? Or will you torpedo them with your other accounts (assume that’s how you always win)?
