Hi fellas, sorry for the break, with our 13th pick, Rhinos would like to give Bornaparte Mujuru another chance to take his game forward.

Mountaineers have monitored this youngster's progress closely for a while and, after holding our breath during the last few days (having made him available to other teams by provoking a veto on Nyumbu), we are glad to welcome Godwill Mamhiyo to Mutare.

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooo :(

He was my next pick, how about the Tuskers trade Wellington Masakdza for Mamhiyo, he will be gutted to leave the Tuskers

I was thinking once the dust has settled on the draft a trade period might be a good idea too; as well a something (?) to determine who compiled the best squad while also allowing our franchise owners the chance to use some tactics.

Not a bad idea, but trading GAT Mamhiyo for Wellington Masakadza at this point would hurt our team's balance badly :(. No doubt both of them would feel great at their respective homes, but for now, the Mountaineers management would like to assure the Tuskers that we would make Godwill feel at home, and ready for a national duty as early as possible, "God willing"! Hope we can expect the same for Wellington from your end, until an opportunity arises for us to see how we can unite them with families and homeland.

I could use my domestic ratings system, devised last season, and work with this season's results. Every owner would have to pick an XI for the Logan Cup and the Pro50, designate, say, six batsmen and five bowlers, and then we could calculate an average rating for each team in each competition to see who comes out tops. It's a bit complicated, though, and would take some time ... Any more straightforward ideas?

Sorry to hurt you, but we honestly thought someone else would pick him ahead of us this round. We thought we had messed it up by not directly picking him after you vetoed Nyumbu.

Now, if Jemisi wants to take Munyede back, we could maybe strike a deal: Tino Mawoyo belongs at Mutare Sports Club ;)
