Really fancy that Wolfenden allrounder bloke on the market but guess i won't be gettting him as he is selling in 2 hrs.

He's a complete waste. Such low primaries for a 50k wage, are you ever going to use his exquisite wicket keeping? Throwing money down the drain tstl.

As i mentioned previously i rate secondaries as being fairly important.

Unless wicket keeping helps his batting and bowling you'd still be throwing tens of thousands of dollars away a week.

Not what i meant.

Won't be getting him anyway so it doesn't really matter.

Playing a friendly against Dynamo Morpork...and Gibb's just started the match with a double-wicket over! Carter gets another, and they're 2/3.

I'm playing a mixture of utter numpties and 1st XIers -- batting not far off the usual, but I'm only playing one of my top 5 bowlers.

Virk, Herbert and Rock the only good ones in my team. Need fitness ahead of the FC league final on Tues.

However, this looks like a huge rout.

Not so much of a rout, given your fine recovery to 225/9.

Unexpectedly, I've not yet lost a wicket in reply, coasting to 90/0 from 14 overs. McGregor doing well I can understand, but Stone's only Competent/Mediocre, with Worthless batting form!

And Goodhead and John are med/comp and feeb/med, respectively. Numpties.

Should be wonderful bat soon. He's on a fielding net now as well, and will be for at least all of next season so he should look much much better next season.

I had a fairly comfortable victory over Sad Decadent XI yesterday, which was a nice suprise. However, apparently, my team GFI'd, which I didn't think was possible in friendly matches?

Well, Hocking is now finished with his training, as I think i can use the nets elsewhere. Also a useless pop on Beaumont.

According to a GM or MOD on sledging, it's just a display bug. The match displays whatever your default GFI/PAN/TIE order is, but all matches are played as PAN in the database (they claim).
