Is that three Vice Captains or a Vice Captain, a Vice Vice Captain and a Vice Vice Vice Captain?

If so, please advise which is which. Thank you.

 

[Daemon]

I can't decide if I want to vote for Bluelegs or Bluelegs.

Why do people bother doing this before the trade period?

It’s a triumvirate or threepeat if you will.

FWIW Sparrow is co captain but not best 22 yet.

 

[Dancing Potato]

FWIW Sparrow is co captain but not best 22 yet.

It's not worth much, but thanks.

 

[Proper Gander]

Vote informal

Memories of Brad Green in the yellow vest came to me just now.

 

[Dancing Potato]

I can't decide if I want to vote for Bluelegs or Bluelegs.

If it's any help, I voted for Bluelegs because I just couldn't bring myself to vote for Bluelegs.

Shame there wasn't an option to vote for Bluelegs though.

I just can't even participate in this thread because I'm so wracked by indecision. This would have been much easier if it was turd sandwich v giant douche.

Would be a big statement to start Laser Laurie (c) in the twos but it's time to get bold. I love this.

 

[MartinPrince]

CJ starting 18?

 

[FootyBot13]

CJ starting 18?

Chris Johnson is a niche reference.

 

[Dancing Potato]

OK, trade period is over, now can someone do a best 23 that doesn't include Sparrow, Laurie or Picks 7 & 8?
