Hmm it looks like using twelve ITS on a worthless primary gets it to mediocre. Which means the worst I'll get next week will be a mediocre allrounder.

He'll do fine. Happy that he's got good stamina, loaded him on nets to get his secondaries up.

That's absurdly annoying! I've been training my guy Singh for over a season and your guy already has better primaries than my guy!

Although Singh has respectable stamina, respectable conc and strong cons it shouldn't take that long for your chap to get up to that level.

Not really, you don't know what he would be like without ITS

If he's any relation to Chuck, give him 10 nets.

 

[GotSpin]

Train the good people

 

[PY]

Yeah thanks for that.

All of those have something going for them.

 

[andyc]

I wouldn't bother with Norris as you've already got a proficient keeper. Just sell him for a bit.

 

[PY]

I was thinking that if I train him I could have him to proficient batting and strong keeping with equal secondaries by the time he is the same age as Ahmed?

I can't sell him yet, I may just train him up a bit in secondaries + stamina then flog him for a small profit (bought him for 11k).

Given that you only have a few weeks left to train for secondaries for younger guys, I'd be giving the nets to other players.

 

[Robertinho]

Anyway..

Batting: 48
Bowling: 30
Fielding: 34
Secondaries: 87
Stamina: 44

Pretty crap, to be honest. Fielding sucks, secondaries & stamina aren't that great either.

Batting: 50 (+2)
Bowling: 33 (+3)
Fielding: 41 (+7)
Secondaries: 76 (-11)
Stamina: 49 (+5)
Overall: 249 (+6)

Pretty shocked that batting and bowling haven't gone up more, and surprised secondaries have gone down so much. Ah well.

 

[PY]

Cheers mate, that makes sense I guess, plus I have a couple of older guys that need training in secondaries so I shall wait until the changes happen before I do that.

If I give someone two fitness nets, will they pop quicker in stamina?

 

[Robertinho]

Yes, PY, they will

 

[PY]

Batting - 54 (-1)
Bowling - 32 (+1)
Fielding - 40 (+2)
Secondaries - 94 (+1)
Stamina - 44 (+5)

Still pretty shocking for stamina, I must have added up the batting wrong first time round because my batting has improved a fair bit since last time.

 

[PY]

Yes, PY, they will

I guess my veiled question was, is it worth doing it?

 

[Robertinho]

I guess so, with 2 fitness nets a 17yo can pop in stamina every 2-3 weeks.
