Ashes Dream team competition

I guess a few of the users here, Aussies anyway, have had the usual email from Cricket Australia inviting them to participate in one of the Dream Team competitions.

On this forum as well as the glory of victory there is usually a battle to see if anyone can score fewer points than Ange, a feat I think I managed once.

Who's up for the competition? So far, off the board, I've had some indication from Ange, Zim, Zat, and skully that they're interested. Horrie, Fred, BD, Nath, simkat, taccy? We have two weeks to set up a league ...

all for it

I've created a league, I think ...

will send out invitations to those whose emails I know over the next hour or so

Sounds like fun . . . or at least more fun than being locked in a room with bradders and smerky

I already entered a few weeks ago. Probably should rejig my team though

so, you're in then ...

Count me in lardy please. Is it OK to PM you from here with my Email addy ?

Go for it, Growls. He's an email addy whore.

sure

just the two contenders so far ... thanks for joining up, Ang.

What does it involve?

What's the entrance fee (plus commission)?

Is there a big fat prize?

pride and prejudice

nil - invite on its way

no

I'm in

First prize is a bag of virtual Malteasers..... supplied by Ian Bell

It's happening over Christmas, the prize should be a selection box which includes a bag of Malteasers.

and a Christmas Calendar, signed by the Belf and Dello

signed in crayon?

that's the one

no Gareth Batty images though, lest they scare the children

Can't wait to take that to The Antiques Road in 50 years time, I'll be a millionaire.

The Belf would make a fine image for a team T shirt ...

Dello, do you have copyright?

welcome aboard Ang, embee, and Growler

And also to 'coach Tino' WTF?

mind the windows

I'm trying to persuade my O/H to select an XI at random and enter.

She sometimes watches the cricket with me if she's bored ..... understands the basics but not really the finer points - but has absolutely no interest in stats & record

so I'd LMFAO if she won the league with a side selected by a "pin in the list of names" so to speak ...

stranger things have happened ... Eyes_Only nearly won the ABC competition one year and she wasn't sure if Warnie had ever taken a 'michelle' in any form of the game
