The Draft - The Teams Revealed, So Lets Tip Them and Name Them!

So here's the teams for The Draft, starting next week.

Why not suggest some names for them? We have! And yes, we've made some silly comments about each team. Expect some proper analysis in the comments.

And how about tipping who's going to win!? (speaking of tipping, Wetnose is soon to announce the winners of the BPL Season 1 Tipping Comp)

Team 1 "Prime Minister Rudd"
Alistair Don (c)
Arrlann Christie
Daniel Henbest
Dave Warren
Isaac Stone
James Morrell
Nandor Locher
Paul Sanguinetti
Stefan Rapazzo
Tim Johnson
Tom Daley

aL has done well on the "loud foreigner" selections. Despite this, should make the Final.

Team 2 "The Polite Ones"
Nathan Litzow (c)
Alex Livingstone
Chris Fox
Gavin Croft
Geoff Spurling
Juan Guerreo
Manual Ramirez
Maylin Chuah
Rob Lowe
Ryan Garrahy
Stuart Austin
Tyson Buhagiar

Look very good on paper. Will make the Final, and our tip to win it.

Team 3 "The Brown Rednuts"
Andy Lankowski (c)
Ben Worby
Brenton Mottershead
Dan Blacklock
Darren Shi
Dustin Czok
Jack Liliwall
Leon McIntyre
Oscar Hernandez
Reece Stewart
Tony Ross

Quite possibly the best looking team in The Draft, if only because all the other teams contain some quite ugly players.

Team 4 "The Egos"
Graham Prickett (c)
Adam Beau
Bevan Rudolph
Doug Crowley
Finn McCarthy-Adams
Matt Eastburn
Mike Nolan Jnr
Nathan Lindsay
Phil Stocks
Stephen Cameron
Trevor Lovering

This is going to be all over the shop. Will beat some team 15-2 one week, then lose 4-12 the following. Anything can happen here folks.

My Tip: Prime Minister Rudd

Prime Minister Rudd will have to change their name.

Egos! *snicker*

aL said...

yup.. read this post this morning before I heard the news about our new PM. Thought at that point that as a team name "prime minister Rudd" was looking like the worst team name I'd been associated with since the fatally named DFHA..

Definitely going to have to come up with something catchier

aL said...

I'm tipping us to win regardless of whatever name sticks ;-)

Probably taking the final against "the ego's" in another tightly contested final.

Actually, I'm thinking Team 2 must surely be named *Vuvuzela*. With more thought now that I'm awake, I'd encourage all teams to have something very 'up to the minute'. This used to be a tradition in Ultimate.

JdR said...

Note the above comment is not an encouragement to get vuvuzelas down to the fields.

There would be few surer ways to get us kicked out of Annerley than if that amount of noise started.

Team 1 - CNUTs Confederated Nations Ultimate Team
Team 2 - Maylin White and the Several Dwarfs (and Lex)
Team 3 - Toy Story 4 - the Sex Toys
Team 4 - Trevor Gets Drafted and Goes to 'Nam

With the official banning of vuvulezas thanks to no-fun-JdR, I call upon all BPL teams to have a makarapa on at least one head next season.
