Could you rename the old one please James because think Trev may have wrong URL for it and/or put the link to the new thread as the last post.

I've no idea whether Trev still needs all this doing or not but isn't worth the risk of not doing it!

Can we have the archived ones stickied again? Or would that cause some strain on the server?

Maybe just links in the first post of this thread to them would suffice.

Yess, Harris pops to Masterful

23. Liam Harris - 21 yo, BT Rating=85,502
LH Batsman, LFM Bowler, superb batting form, superb bowling form, sublime fitness.
A defensive player with woeful leadership skills and competent experience.
Stamina: respectable Wicket Keeping: abysmal
Batting: masterful Concentration: exceptional
Bowling: woeful Consistency: feeble
Fielding: respectable

On 1 net, would it take more than 1 season for a 21/22 yo to pop?

Managed to sell Verhoeven as well, have an 11m balance now, hoping to pick up a decent bowler.

Hmmm, cheers. Reckon it's worth it for Harris? Thinking I might change it to a stamina net otherwise, as most of my squad has **** stamina.

I personally wouldn't train anyone past masterful, the wage/performance ratio goes whack around there.

Fair point. Getting players to higher levels of stamina is probably going to be more beneficial to the team as well in the long run.

Bidding on this bloke as a replacement for Verhoeven. Hoping he doesn't go for over 10.5m (have no idea, haven't followed the TM for aaaaaaaages). Would contemplate slapping a bowling net on for a season till he pops to exquisite then.

Cheers Pete and James, found my way here okay. Only two pops, batting on 21yo Akhtar, (Now Sens/Sup Bat), and Cons on 20yo Katleho (now Wond/Prof RF). Both in need of a fielding net, currently with Akhtar until he hits Rem Conc or there abouts, then I'll transfer it over.

Later, Trev
