Last Man Standing - Euro 2016 Edition

We've played this kind of game before, but during the regular season in England, so this is a little bit different. Many of you will know how this goes, but here's a run-down for those that don't.

-Before each round of group matches, you will select a team. If that team fails to win, you'll be eliminated from the game.

-You may only select each team once during the game, so pick wisely.

-Whoever gets the furthest without being eliminated will win the game.

Be aware that picking the bigger teams early could be a decent strategy, but if we get to the Semi Final stage and you have already picked all four of the teams, it could mean that somebody else still has a couple of them spare and is able to select one and get further than you.

Time will tell how well this game runs. There's no need to sign up as such, just pick a team from the first round of group matches to represent you!

The first round of group matches run from this Friday night (France v Romania) and finish up on Tuesday night (Portugal v Iceland). Remember, pick wisely! 

Good luck. As usual with my games, there'll be a prize for the winner.

I'll start off with Austria.

So ... Am I picking a team for each group? Or just a team in the first fixtures?

[Colly]

So it's a total of 7 picks? 3 group, 4 knock outs? Could get interesting trying to avoid picking the finalists early doors.

@Walker - To begin with, just a team from the first set of fixtures. But know that you can't pick them again. 

@Colly - Spot on. Again, you can go gung-ho and hope you've outlasted everyone by then, but it's up to you!
