I still don't know what's going on in this thread. 🤣

It's a DeeSpencer-inspired pick-for-pick to see who can draft the best team and then boast about their brilliance. Wanna take over my hand? I forgot to change the electricity account in my new place and the bastards cut off my power at 5pm on a Friday. Candles and hand-cranked internet for me this weekend. Or someone else (I got you Trac!)?

[Skuit 10,031]

Skuit trading in Green for Steele and Macrae may be marginally okay, but probably a serious mistake if framed as Hawkins and May. Hopefully the latter pair will bust each other up at training. 

[Skuit 10,031]

Pick 19 and 30 up for grabs if someone wants to offer up a pair of picks in the 20s.

I have about two minutes of internet left until sometime Monday morning. Whoever jumps in first can take over my team. See you all on the flipside.

Like ring in my picks from a phone-box? Smart-phones require power too. And fancy cutting off someone's electricity at 5pm on a Friday knowing full well there will be no service until at least Monday afternoon. 

Anyways, it doesn't fill me with confidence that no-one took over my hand. With pick 19 I take Jeremy Cameron.

Over the weekend I read MaddAddam, partially by candle-light, the conclusion to Margaret Atwood's trilogy beginning with Oryx and Crake, along with Will Self's Phone, neither of which I would particularly recommend. I also had to hunt possums and cook them on the camp-fire. 

[Skuit 10,031]

Adonski, adonski, Skuit, Picket and WERRIDEE next up at this stage, followed by WERRIDEE, Picket, Skuit, adonski and adonski.

21: Whitfield

Haha, an unexpected haymaker from the cheap seats. The tab over from this one on my computer is the novel I'm writing about a somewhat distorted character who shares my basic bio being stuck in the post-apocalyptic Mojave desert setting of one of my earlier novels after being digitally recreated by a troop of simian Google acolytes who misinterpret my internet browsing history. . 

A true story, then.

Basically. Though I left out the part where I spend most of my time chatting to a smart-mouthed woodpecker perched in the hole of a cactus oozing the essence of Morgan Freeman.
