**Dev League Season 7**

25Smash Champions....i like the sound of that!

Well this brings development season 7 to a great end (for us anyways), while this season has not been easy at times I could not have asked for a better situation to kick start my cricket web career. Greens have had a nice settled season with Age always leading from the front. I look forward to playing again with all my teammates next season, if the powers that be let this happen. For the players who are moving on (or maybe staying and I’m moving on), I had a great time playing along side you and hopefully sometime in the future we may get another chance.

With out further ado....

We are the champions my friend *hic*
And we'll keep on fighting to the end
Cause we are the champions *hic*
We are the champions.........
Of the world! *hic*

Enjoy the off season....i know i will (beer and pies mmmmmm)

Daily Blast Comment:
We've either just witnessed probably the greatest One Day chase in cricket history or the greatest farce. Whatever it was, it was certainly entertaining if strokeplay is your fancy. The pitch was stated to be a belter, but in actuality it was more a Heaven/Hell surface - Heaven for batsmen, Hell for bowlers.

Rumours are that there may be an appeal for a rematch.
just a thought. liam asked us all for our predictions for this final and i was spot on. i said that the blacks would win and steds would have a huge game.

well the blacks batting was on fire, and steds 12th man duties were amazing! no drink too heavy, no magic spray too expensive. i nominate myself for ruler of the world.

Great showing by the Greens in the 25Smash final and a well deserved 25Smash victory, too. I agree with Blewy - I always believed that we were easily capable of winning the 25Smash season. :) Still, even though I sort of expected us to get it, it feels awesome to be on a winning team. Everyone has played a part at some point this year and it just shows how well we work together and I think that's been a strong point for us this season.

CW Green - the first ever CW Bar 25Smash Champions. You can never take that away from us. :)

Once you come down to it, we're all playing in the same sim - it would be nice if it was better, but the same advantages and disadvantages are given to us all. If you were to need proof, look at the record partnerships for the ninth and tenth wicket. Oh, wait - there aren't any! No team has ever lost more than eight wickets in 25Smash, which to me shows just how much the sim is inaccurate to reality - and it also shows that the same flaws go to all teams. Who knows how this season would have ended up if the batsmen were asked to bat more aggressively? I don't know how aggressive the captains ask their batsmen to be, but if there's a higher setting, it's possible that a team could bat far more aggressively and still not get all out.

There's no aggression setting in the sim, and it doesn't seem like the chasing/pacing AI is up to much, either.

In that case I completely agree that we need a sim capable of adding aggression etc. Have we got anything better that could/is being looked into?

oooh another final lost. Disappointing to say the least.
The season is over ... i have no reason the cheer.... the only thing i can give out is pats on the back.
