Okay.. i've never heard this one. Can you give me a quick 'cap of this?

And.. the current work in process:

Strangely, that's now the third draft pick with the word 'bull' in it. Not that it's interesting.

Excellent. I keep changing mine.

Don't worry Esk, that was quite a player in his day.

Interesting choices sir.. I wonder what formation you'll end up going with. Looking forward to the finished product.

& Sivy is next with his two picks.

Don't hate the player. Although as a Derby fan, it pains me to say that's a great pick. Although he did captain Derby in a testimonial once. As weird as that is to believe.

King Cucaracha's 12 hours are now up, so Sivy is now eligible. King Cucaracha and Jorge Gorgoeus both have one make-up pick.

Deschamps was my equal first choice.. just Makelele for some reason is regarded as the best.

DH Smith threw some doubt on it, but then he went to SmackDown.

Sorry for the abuse of power here, but Deancoles has 2 hours left to make his pick, but it's 1am here in England, and he just isn't going to make it in the next two hours, so rather than hold this up, i'll make my pick now. I'm sure nobody minds that. Claude Makelele Before you judge, i'm not talking about the second rate Chelsea midfielder.. well, I am, but i'm talking about the same player when he was in the Real Madrid team. Because my team is so, so attack minded, I need a defensive midfielder to sit in front of my back four. And in this position, in his prime, there has never been a better player.

Not Hardcore Holly~!

The original King.

I thought that was an awesome pic.

BOOM BOOM BOOM!

Huss is officially on the clock. Jorge Gorgeous has one make-up pick.

I'll just add my $0.02 Two reasons i'm actually absolutely pissed about this.. I get Sky+ (basically DVR to us) installed NEXT monday. Thinking Raw wouldn't be worth watching tonight, I went to bed at 1.45am, 15 minutes before Raw started. I'm just about the biggest CM Punk fan/mark in the world. I watched this show via download this morning before reading the results (like I do every time I dont watch live) and even after the talk of Punk cashing in at the PPV Sunday night, when batista laid him out, I STILL hadn't clicked on that Punk would come out. Like a few people mentioned, with Lillian/Referee messing around, it occured Punk would indeed not win his MITB match, like people have speculated for so long. But him winning was possibly the biggest markout moment i've ever had, bigger than WM20's ending, bigger than Summerslam 2002's street fight, maybe even bigger than No Way Out 2004's main event with Guerrero winning. Like others, I thought he was losing it to JBL later on, with JBL giving that promo Sunday night, I thought Punk might just transition from Edge to JBL.. I was even too scared to watch the match, as lame as that sounds, but once Cena and his Cryme Tyne goons came out, I knew he'd be okay to keep the title. Basically, speaking just on my behalf, I won't miss a Raw live while CM Punk is holding the title. Thankyou, WWE.

Interesting, i'd have thought someone would have taken Eugene by now as their comedymidcard act.

I saw a half-page full advert in The Sun the other day. Was taken by surprise.

He wouldn't have problems with Cena at all. The visual wouldn't seem out of place, it just takes a few weeks of ultra-booking, and he'd be acceptable with Cena.

Triple H vs Randy Orton Unforgiven 2004 World Championship Notes: I remember this match just for the finish.. Killed Orton's reign immediately, but a favourite.

Carles Puyol is the defensive steal so far. Very underrated, catalan legend.

Jericho IS defending the title tonight. They've just said on the wwe produced Night Of Champions preview here on Sky Sports. It didn't say against who, just said that with the draft, there's lots of potential challengers.
