It's becoming a bit of a farce this, with so many goals being scored. At the moment, Goughy, Kennett amd Dravid are just going to keep getting better quicker than anyone else.
Maybe. However the counter arguement is that Smith is the 3rd or 4th ranked striker and he cant find the net :D Maybe tactics have something to do with it. Also Id like to include Hutchinson in any discussion about strikers as he has been brilliant for The Swell.

I would add a certain Myles Hutchinson to that list as well. Also noticed that the keepers improvements have slowed down, so it could get even worse in the future. I think a lot has to do with the high number of players out from some sides also. At the start of the season there was next to no injuries, now all of sudden there are all these extended injuries. Add to that the large number of defenders getting 2 match suspensions. It could be a case of last man standing here or who can score more going between Dravid, Goughy, Kennett or Hutchinson that wins the title.

I would say Smith inability to find the back of the net has more to do with injury to himself and the large number of players out. I would say i full strength regardless of the tactics he will be finding the back of the net as regular as the others.

I find it funny that some guys can't stop scoring goals and others forwards struggle to find the net. I think 80% of my goals have been pens, 5/7 in fact, missed about 10 though. Strange little sim we got here very strange.

I get great pratice from the boys, and they are only going to get better, In fact, who'd be the first to 60 in striking?

Swell are in a bit of form!! Disapointed being taken off after 18 mins though tbh.

Yeah, I understand the frustration. However, we had a defender sent off and with so long left in the game it was only sensible to take a AM off for a defender.

Very disapointed with my performance. What a shocker! When it isn't going your way, it turns bad. Hopefully I can turn it around for the next game.

What a brilliant win. Thamba was sensational and Dave and Rodgie had great games too. Delighted with my performance as well, especially pleased to have made the team of the week. Top team performance all round!

It's cool mate, just do what's best for the team :)

The other problem is that it seems to be mainly defenders getting sent off (of course, natural in a sense), hence they'll improve much slower than the attackers.

Maybe you should just have a stock improvement for all at the end of each season? With maybe a slight slight slight slight improvement above and beyond for high achievers....
