Need to get your prop sorted tonight then, or pm someone a couple of options for when it is your turn tomorrow.

InTheFastLane wrote:Dimitri Yachvilli

Won't be on tommorow

Winger - Thomas Castaignede

Yes good idea Pete, pm your three choices to me inthefastlane if your still about.

Then see if your lucky and your top pick still remains

dam it pull!!!

Casteignede was never a winger. If Healy can't be in as a 9 then no way can that be allowed.

Prop - TBC.. Hold on!

looks like someone spotted it pull

Castaignède doesn't count.

Never played on the wing for France ever!

Must pick again plenty of quality left so it won't be hard Pullthestrings.

I shouldn't come on 606 drunk..

Either I try and argue Casteignede's winger-esk qualities or I admit I have shown my cards too early.

dont think you can win that one mate now its out in the open

Besides I bet he was on a few lists already, I know he was on mine for later!

Shouldn't of come on 606 drunk.

I take it you are drunk were on 606v2 not 606

Mine too. Good player to have covering 10, 12 and 15.

Can we all agree that noone will take him and they'll leave him for me? Brilliant.

Heymans for winger.
Dai Young for Prop.

he was rapid and had great vision for a little guy. I wasn't to far from his home town of Mont-de-Marsan and he was a bit of a hero near us.

well pull he's on my list but not high up for when the transfers start, so as long as my players don't go I shan't be bidding on him for a while can't promise the others will be as kind lol

He'll be my free choice if noone goes for him - only four in front of me.

If you go for him you're an egg.

Doubt Driver will be on tonight, won't be on much tomorrow myself until the afternoon but im hoping I can get a computer somewhere and check the progress.

I am and i'm half cut haha

What position do i have to pick? Doesn't matter as bear will tell me Dan Carter is not a fly half cos he's played 5 minutes at centre for New zealand

hahaha no problems mate your in the clear from me - i just have to hope my choices don't go . . .

my god i love the look of my wingers . . . it's all Maori side steps for my 11 & 14 lol

Driver you need a hooker mate.

Are you half cut from doing an actual hooker tonight, after downing 5 pints of cider?

All down to Bathite and Driver.

Prop for Bathite
Hooker for Driver

That's it we have done very well today, quality stuff.

You right i do need a hooker but i'm short of cash and my mates sister ain't cheap

finished rugby mate and the wray and nephews expired behind the bar yesterday so we pollished it off with a few stellas it was fooking awesome

Yep you have had too much.

Hooker please driver, Im off bed soon and will be out till mid afternoon tomorrow.

Richard Cockerill - best leicester hooker in history besides blogs

He was taken by Luke.

You must pick again lol.

What the hell Luke! we used to be friends and then you steal my hooker lol

Mario Ledesma is next on my word doc so i'll take him

Driver you need to pick again.

Will give you two mins then im going bed.

Bathite you need to pick a prop when you come on in the morning.

Inthefastlane if you get some time you will need to pick a prop aswell, or give me a list of three by PM.

Cheers everyone

ooooooo a word doc - how flash

Can't i pick later think i'v just Poopie myself and need to go to bed after using toilet

Thanks Driver, good choice.

Steven - Hooker
Bathite - Prop

Then after Bathite I need a prop from inthefastlane and yourself Driver.

Then free choice begins, also feeling an extra round of free choices just to push the numbers close to 25, then from 25 players I will let you have 32.

You don't have to pick again, I posted that before I saw Ledesma.

Go and let out the sick and diarrhea.

Was it drunk central here last night or something?! I'm out now till 1.30ish but am working from home this afternoon so will catch up then!!

Think im going to go for Sylvain Marconnet. 83 caps during a very strong period of french rugby and scrummaging and the ability to play both sides of the scrum

Gone a bit quiet on here!!

am waiting quietly in the wings . . .

however I have to get out today so wont be back on until this afternoon!!

laters

Needed.

inthefastlane - Prop
Steven - Hooker

Thanks

Yannick Bru

Just two more props now and we're off!!!! Got a while to wait for my picks but hoping one of them doesn't go, got a few back ups...i'm looking at you steve :p

Do I need to pick?

If I don't pick a hooked or prop, which are the only rounds not completed, can I make my free choice pick so we can get things moving?

I'd be up for that Pete

See no reason why not - crack on Pete.

If people behind you do want to pick a hooker or prop they'll have to wait though.

Just so you know guys, Steve's picked his hooker so we only need to worry about not picking props

Cool. Sorry pull, I pick Castaignede.

Heymans for winger.
Dai Young for Prop.

LDCPete wrote:Sure Pull, no problem. You're a swell guy.

I thought we all agreed to not take him?!

Pete - you're such an

Austin Healy.

hold on i wanted healy ffs pull you giant p i s s h e a d lol

inthefastlane said he wouldn't be on today so I guess we will have to wait for him. Driver you have to be patient for your next prop.

Free choices can start then I guess, added yours Luke and yours Pete.

So for the time being Banafan it's your turn to pick.

but for free choices I can't pick which positions??

ok the Marlborough Devils pick all black legend, the play maker, the heart breaker, the one the only incredible

KING Carlos Spencer . . . . woooooooot wooooooooooooot

so happy . . . .
