Anyone know how long a 21 yr old will take to pop in conc with 1 bat and a feilding or keeping net.

Also how about consis with a 17 yr old with bowling nets and a keeping and feilding.

 

[Jamee999]

a) 6.1 weeks
b) 5.2 weeks

21 year olds take ages to pop. Wouldnt bother training him to be honest.

The 17 year old will pop crazy if he has both fielding AND keeping nets.

Are those accurate, or were you just being random?

21 yo are worth training if they are gun players already. i.e remarkable and above.

Thanks for the help Tharmi.


The player in question is Quality/Strong so i see 1 net not really being a waste also considering he's my 2nd best bat behind Bertos at the moment.

Train him, a couple of weeks extra to pop doesn't make much difference. My 23yo bat (Janes) took 7 weeks to pop in concentration (with 1 bat and 1 fielding net) so a 21yo will probably take 8 weeks or so.

You probably should have waited until someone good was listed.

 

[chaminda_00]

You probably should have waited until someone good was listed.

He did though, he just didn't get a bid in time for Hook or he was too expensive.

There was someone but i got outbid on him.

There is the finished product. Roger Mcmillan, promoted on the 28th on January 2006, has now completed his training. One club player. Legend. Also has awesome symmetry with all his attributes

Mulholland also a mere six weeks away from getting a fielding net. He'll be awesome by the end of next season.

Only noticeable pop, should be getting close to remarkable 'keeping as well. I'm thinking about stopping his 'keeping net at remarkable, as I can't really see the need to have it any higher for the time being, or would I be better off letting him get to wonderful? Some advice would be much appreciated.

 

[Robertinho]

Yeah, I would say get him to wonderful. You may as well. Doesn't cost that much.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

I'd probably take keeping to exceptional maximum. Don't know why, just seems like a good stopping place to me. It's where I'll stop my future keeping trainee.

Anyway, one pop, but I'm pretty stoked with it.

He's on a fielding net now as well, so he should pop again in conc and fielding before the end of the season, and by the end of next season he'll be sensational-remarkable.
