Shield Sheffield Shield Draft Game

[eth-dog]

We did one of these a few years back. Basically a complete redraft of the Shield. Given there are 6 teams I suppose 6 entries would be the best number of entrants.

That's what happens when you get six of the most intelligent and charismatic posters this forum has ever seen in one thread.

Travis Head

Pick 18: Tim Paine - The Australian skipper on the sidelines wondering what he has to do to get a game. He will captain the side too.

Pick 19: Joe Burns - Has had a rough start to this Shield season however he's still the incumbent Australian opener. Has nearly 6000 runs @ 42 in his Shield career which is excellent considering he's spent a lot of his career opening at the GABBA.

Can't be a Sheffield Shield comp unless Jackson Bird is taking wickets in an unexciting way.

Stoked this guy is still available as I consider him a better bowler than the previous several that have been taken.

He's still one of the classiest players around and would add value to any side in this draft. I'll shore up the top order with Usman Khawaja.

May need a RHB at some stage haha.

Considered taking Moises last pick but chose to prioritise the top order. Nice pick.

I have the flexibility to push Maddinson up to opening if worst comes to worst.

Ah damn, I never really come on here unless there are shield matches and I've missed the boat. Ah well, next time. Fun thread to follow though!
