[33/3from3.3]

Man you got a poo squad. First thing would be to get Pitt off that net he's craphouse, same with Stockley. Give Flitney both of them. Hire more coaches a stamina for Hickes maybe.

More advice later!

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

That is such a terrible squad, how are newbies supposed to actually get into Battrick when they get such bad starting squads? It's ridiculous.

[andyc]

Hmmm.. looking at that, I'm salivating at the idea of selling Canning next season.

He's not that good.

 

[Adamc]

That's the guy I was offering to buy last season, offered him 4m when he was a mere exceptional/quality. Pretty happy I ended up with Whitehorne instead though, would be a hassle getting that guy at this stage of the season as his PFL is shot.

 

[AussieDominance]

quite harsh

 

[chaminda_00]

Having a look at my training program i think this might be my potential sqaud by the end of the season. Hopefully im a bit closer then i was before, but i put that down to inexperience. Looks like i might be competitve against the better side by the end of the season, if this end up being correct.

Strong/feeble
Proficient-Strong/competent
Strong/competent
Strong/feeble | Superb (wk)
Proficient-Strong/Medicore | Strong-Superb/medicore (LS)
Respectable/woeful
Competent/mediore
Worthless/feeble | Proficient/feeble (LF)
Abysmal/woeful | Respectable/feeble (RFM)
Abysmal/woeful | Respectable/mediorce (RS)
Abysmal/woeful | Strong-Superb/mediorce (RFM)

The secondaries still look like they are going to be very poor.

 

[PY]

Hopefully, mine'll look like this approx if nets stay the same:

Superb/respectable
Remarkable/strong
Superb/proficient
Strong/proficient - respectable/competent
Respectable/Respectable WK Proficient
Competent/Proficient - respectable/quality
_________/__________ - _____________/_____________ [new all-rounder]
Competent/competent - Remarkable/mediocre
B Strong/respectable
B Respectable/competent
B Proficient/respectable

That all-rounder needs to be superb in bowling and probably at least respectable batsmen.

 

[lord_of_darkness]

word.. at first i thought thats how everyone started off.. and yeah i kinda had the feeling i was workin with a stack of cow dung....goddamn..!! more suggestions please rather than just admiring the stack..i need some intense repairing thats forsure!

 

[PY]

Get into the market Reuben, there's some fine bulls to be had on the cheap.

This guy for example would get in your team and you could stack him up on nets as you don't have anyone else to use them on:
