hahahha - actually your right - he got bad press, I think he's a very good choice!

by Bathite Mon Jun 20, 2011 11:30 am

Bad press?? really? One of the few welsh players i really really liked (and openly admitted), alongside Scott Quinnelll.

by Bathite Mon Jun 20, 2011 11:30 am

Charvis was like a postman....always delivered. Much less maligned then Martin Corry and he was a very good player

by CJB Mon Jun 20, 2011 11:32 am

Got 2 current players and a saffa who I'm thinking about as my number 8

by Bathite Mon Jun 20, 2011 11:33 am

I considered Chabal and Hari

by CJB Mon Jun 20, 2011 11:34 am

Ok both the current players.

by BANAFAN-AKA-HON Mon Jun 20, 2011 11:37 am

i like charvis!! but think he got treated badly.

by prop_lyd Mon Jun 20, 2011 11:38 am

Ok, here's a question: what are we doing about subs and how many are allowed thinking about the fact that they rarely happened in the 80's!!

by CJB Mon Jun 20, 2011 11:41 am

I'm going to go with Morne Du Plessis. Another player who won't be remembered as greatly as he should becuase of the apartheid but he was a class player and he brought together a disjointed South African side

by **Ozzy3213** Mon Jun 20, 2011 11:43 am

Well ultimately it's down to Bear, but I would say a 7 man bench, don't see the need for 2 props to be honest.

by BANAFAN-AKA-HON Mon Jun 20, 2011 11:45 am

bear has said minimum of 25 man squad and max 32
there will be injuries and sub bench will be taken in to account.
Once the draft is done the transfer window opens and you can start topping your team up. once everyone is up to 25 I believe we GET TI ON so to speak Smile

by BANAFAN-AKA-HON Mon Jun 20, 2011 11:46 am

7 man bench sounds sensible as well . . .

by pullthestrings Mon Jun 20, 2011 11:48 am

207 - pretty sure Morne Du Plessis was a 70's player. I googled it when I was picking an 8 and came to the decision he wasn't elligable. Otherwise he'd be a shoe in - probably the best 8 ever behind Brooke/Shelford.

by CJB Mon Jun 20, 2011 11:53 am

Last test was 1980?

by Bathite Mon Jun 20, 2011 11:54 am

I thought the same with Morne, was going to pick, but not an 80s player

by **Ozzy3213** Mon Jun 20, 2011 11:59 am

Du Plessis played 8 of his 22 tests in 1980, for me that makes him eligible.

by pullthestrings Mon Jun 20, 2011 11:59 am

I would have chose him in that case.. couldn't find anything on t'internet..

by Bathite Mon Jun 20, 2011 12:00 pm

in that case.......b o l l o c k s!

Balls. Good spot 207!

by Bathite Mon Jun 20, 2011 12:03 pm

Wow, only just sneaked in there to be honest

by CJB Mon Jun 20, 2011 12:03 pm

Sorry lads.

by **Ozzy3213** Mon Jun 20, 2011 12:08 pm

Right, I've just tweeted Driver to get him to do his picks!

by prop_lyd Mon Jun 20, 2011 12:14 pm

Got my prop, centre and scrum half ready to be picked!! Not sure about 2nd winger!!

by Steven_Sharks Mon Jun 20, 2011 12:21 pm

I'll have Gary Armtrong as my 2nd SH

by prop_lyd Mon Jun 20, 2011 12:23 pm

2nd scrum half: rob jones

by BANAFAN-AKA-HON Mon Jun 20, 2011 12:36 pm

Yeah I have prop and Winger ready for action as well, but being down the line a bit I will be lucky to get either!! Smile

by GloucesterBear Mon Jun 20, 2011 1:09 pm

Cheers

by Steven_Sharks Mon Jun 20, 2011 1:17 pm

I couldn't get on yesterday evening at all Bathite. Not sure what was going down

by BANAFAN-AKA-HON Mon Jun 20, 2011 1:18 pm

by BANAFAN-AKA-HON Mon Jun 20, 2011 1:19 pm

by BANAFAN-AKA-HON Mon Jun 20, 2011 1:22 pm

Driver: Tighthead/Center/winger/OpenSide Flanker/number 8

LDCpetee: Scrumhalf

inthefastlane: Blindside flanker

Pull: Hooker

have I got that right guys?

by GloucesterBear Mon Jun 20, 2011 1:23 pm

Pullthestrings - Hooker
Driver - Quite a few
LDCPete - 2nd scrum-half

Please, Driver is online on the portal just have to be patient.

by BANAFAN-AKA-HON Mon Jun 20, 2011 1:24 pm

I am just trying to work out whats on Smile

no probs mr Bear!!

by **Ozzy3213** Mon Jun 20, 2011 1:29 pm

My replacement scrum half is the triple Heineken Cup winning Frenchman Jean-Baptisite Elissalde.

by GloucesterBear Mon Jun 20, 2011 1:30 pm

All three of them have been online so far today, but not bothered to pick.

Come on you lovely guys, I might raise the cash bonus for the start of the season...

by GloucesterBear Mon Jun 20, 2011 1:32 pm

Thanks Pete much appreciated.

Driver, Luke and Pullthestrings to pick now.

Getting closer to the finishing line.

by pullthestrings Mon Jun 20, 2011 1:33 pm
