Phantom Draft

[zimbos_05]

Good one! But the Indo-German owned championship winning Mountaineers would be making all the headlines soon

Before we forget where we stand, its your turn now, zimbos_05.

Yep, on it. Just at work at the moment (I know right, how could anyone work whilst the draft is on).

Seeing as Madziva is now gone we now need to reassess our options. Will see how we go.

Well, you did succeed in breaking the family after all

Wellington was one of the two choices we had for this round, and were hoping that he won't get picked up, but not to be. Big disappointment. On the plus side, he is going as the lead spinner to Tuskers and had he stayed, would have been second spinner to Mushangwe at Mountaineers. So, great learning opportunities there. We would be watching his progress keenly.

[CrimsonAvenger]

If a guy has an FC average of over 30, T20 strike rate of 140+ and has played for 3 different franchises - that means one thing - "experience", which we can make use of. Hence we offer a stable career to Steven Trenchard in this round.

We were really worried when brmtaylor.com admin brought up that thread on Trenchard out of nowhere yesterday as soon as we had focused on him as our next pick. Feared the worst thinking one of the two would pick him, and had planned to go for Wellington if that happened.

Not to be, and welcome to Mutare Steven!

And yes, this is a steal

[zimbos_05]

For their next pick, the Eagles had the kitchen lady stick her hand in to the bowl filled with names and out she pulled, Brighton Mugochi

[Jemisi]

The Rhinos are pleased to retain Richard Muzhange with our 9th round pick.

The Tuskers would like to retain Steve Chimhamhiwa
