Just start with 8, everyone has had time to enter

Torpedo10 · January 30, 2015, 04:07:54 PM

I'll go in I guess.

Righto, will kick off with 9.

OOP is on the draft thread. PB is first out of the blocks.

No requirement to pick from teams in any order. Just 1 player from each team. This will require a bit of strategy!

What's the go with injuries? If one our players gets injured and ruled out of the World Cup prior to it starting can we replace them with someone else from that country?
