The Second RedCafe Sheep Draft

If that happens, I'd just act as a puppet and let antohan pull the strings in the background and he'd torture you all in ways even Skizzo doesn't think of.

Out of the frying pan into the fire then.

Actually looking forward to the next round weirdly enough. Manager event sounds like something we can participate in and not something that is totally out of our control. Could be totally wrong here though.

Don't worry, you will probably have the chance to take him from EAP in the manager event.

This entire draft would be a huge letdown if we don't get EAP losing one of this best players at some point.

Why gang up on me? I'm already at the bottom with two sheeps!

In fact your team could do well with a trimdown.

Maybe because now you have three great players?

No worries, you should be allowed to protect one of them. And you should also have the chance to trim kps. Fair is fair.

:lol: Am on the prod here.

Internet backtrack setup - Complete
Skizzo location trace - In progress. 57% complete.
Ninja assassins - Hired.
Alibi for myself - Complete.

Didn't you hear Balu? Take out Skizzo and it will only get worse, and your ninjas are never going to find me.
 
Zidane was a good risk to take, tbh. As the matches involving him had other opportunities IIRC

I'll take that. one solid pick and one very good one.
 
I'm surprised the Zidane's didn't block each other, although MJJ helped the others there. feck knows what he can safely go for next.

Was expecting more sheep :(

Aye, was sort of expecting that too. But then it'll be interesting to see who the second round boys have actually gone for as their backup picks. Could be less than stellar names in the mix - as in, solid at best players. We shall see. I doubt everyone has managed to pull of a truly brilliant combo here.

Ouch, @harms that's desperately unlucky. You go again son

Edgar Allan Pillow said:
The other Zidane's are through. MJJ digging himself deeper?

@harms double block again? What luck in misfortune !!! :lol:




Managers event, I think. Skiz should be up shortly.

Nothing to do with misfortune. More so, I expected it.
If I fail in the third round - that would be unfortunate (and stupid :lol:) as it would mean that someone's incredibly lucky and stupid (if it was the first round) or clever/safe (if it was the second one) pick went under my radar. Need to check it one last time.

TBH, you can't possibly get it wrong if you wannt to avoid sheep. There were loads of less than stellar but rather good options which, as you say, wouldn't have gone in the first round and the only one starting anew in the second was Sajeev. Working out how NOT to clash with Sajeev should be rather easy.

If the point was to solely avoid sheep then yes, I must be incredibly stupid to pick one (or two) this round. But I don't want to compromise, I want certain players, even if there are some brilliant and safer options. Still, if I wasn't mistaken with my calculations, I should be okay - and if I was then I deserve what's coming for me.
 
Final results coming, I don't have the next criterion though. You guys have to wait for @Skizzo for the upcoming horror!
 
What's the name of those hay things that roll around in abandoned western towns? I want to post a pic but can't find any without keywords!

Before I go...to clarify before everyone sends in their 2nd stage picks.

The two sections for players are as follows:

1. A player from the losing team of a European Cup or CL final.

and

2. A player from the losing team of a Cup Winners Cup, Uefa Cup, or Europa League final of the same year.

If you get a Pass from a player in section 1, your next picks still have to be from section 2. Players from different losing sides, in the different competitions, in the same year.

You need one losing player from CL/European Cup final AND a player from Cup Winners Cup/Uefa Cup/Europa League

Just noted @harms does not have a sheep yet. A double to join me & MJJ?

No pressure ;)
Click to expand...

I might be moving on to three.
 
Quite pleased with that to be honest. No research, got me a solid CB and one of my favorite fullbacks in Zanetti!
 
Woah! The picks from EAP! :drool:
Raees and MDFC have done really well here too.

Rather pleased to have got Nedved, great two wings at the moment for me between Figo & Nedved.
