PW Boards Draft XII - Discussion Thread

The speed we are going with less players, rd10 is coming around a lot quicker than usual and there are still more game/storyline changing picks available so I don't intend to start writing yet personally.

That's what I was kind of thinking myself tbh. I have very tentative points written but all is subject to change at present. I think (unless anyone wants it opened and if they do, please say so) I'll hold off until round 12 or 13 anyways.

Do people want the Write Ups Thread opened from round 10 or are ye happy to wait another little while? I don't mind either way, just wondering what the preferred option is. I know I likely won't be posting anything till probably after the last round concludes.

I'm in no panic anyway, plenty still up in the air for me.

Mr.Nice Guy

I don't plan to write anything soon anyway.

Will there be an extra 16th round at the end as was the case the last two years? I'd think it would be a good idea since there's a serious amount of talent available.

There....MIGHT be

Ok folks, can I have... ah I'll just let one of my own draft picks say it:



As per usual the PW Draft will have a Royal Rumble linked round. As such I'm going to need everyone to pick a number from 1 to 30.

What it will be linked to... will be revealed when the round is

As well as being fun, it gives a bit of extra interest in the Rumble for all of us.

I'll go last and pick the bones of whatever is left.

I'll run this round in either Round 11 or 12 depending on the pace of Round 10.

TLDR: Pick a number between 1 and 30 please!

Alfred Borden

Yeah, keep it all together for ease of access for all. Just checked and all 15 players posted in the thread at least once so should see it. Will PM people if necessary though.

I think the reveal of the importance of numbers should be revealed when all have picked

Ruat Caelum

Number 13 please

It just gives people a way to root for their number.

Bounty Hunter

I'll take no.24

A Brad Maddox Guy

I'll take #8

paulie21

Number 21 please

SlickRic

28 please.

ShagNastii

Double post. Sorry.

ShagNastii

4.

Mr. Guappa

I'll take #5.

I'll have my pick up shortly too.

Mr. Guappa

I thought the ladies only round worked out well in retrospect. I had a 5 name shortlist at the start, and 3 of them survived to my pick. Still plenty female talent available too.

JP Liz V1

25

Necro

Thanks Liz, just Lord, MNG and myself to pick now and I'll announce what it pertains to.

Necro

Also, if anyone wants to partake in the Royal Rumble Pool for PW Boards the sign up thread is open

Cheers Necro. You're doing bang up job.

Mr.Nice Guy

I'll take #22.

Mr. Guappa

Andre is savage value at this stage. I came really, really close to picking him, but just went for Liger in the end as I prefer him as a fit for my roster.

Cheers, Yeah I was humming and haying over whether to pick him as he can be hard enough to book but that is more so about finding the right opponent. I have someone in mind for him now though and hopefully that will come to pass.

being able to take Haku with him makes it even more value for me, always liked hearing wrestlers stories about him. Sounded like the nicest guy in the industry while also being able to take on / kill anyone in real life.
