Good luck with those exams NZ! It's just as well, if you become captain I won't be able to make a bid for you

Less of the aggression thanks, bondy - the swear filter is there for a reason.

I haven't really got the time, to be honest. I'll be watching with interest though to see how an IPL-style sim can work on the forum as I'd like to do a similar thing myself in the future. Maybe.

Future sim?
I'm hoping you post a bit more on here JP because I love to see interest from all members and there hasn't been much activity from you lately. Hopefully we'll find a captain. If not, it's you!

If I'm captain, I will expect to seal the capture of both Bell and Collingwood for about $5 on current form...

It's between you and Monty then - maybe Monty can put through the bids and you can control the team?

Right then Round 2. Seeing as Monty's signing in now I think we'll limit this round to 8 bids, make sure you keep to the limitations and rules on the 1st page and don't go over the limit for bids.
PS > Monty if you want Robbie as an assistant coach you'll need him in your team.
