Retirements!!

[lord_of_darkness]

ofcourse i wouldnt there wouldnt be a reason to

but when i get 2 extremely crap players for 2 good players then you have all the reason to moan..!

 

[Slats4ever]

Give Blewy a break.
you can drop your rookies off into the draft and get more draft picks. we'll be punished of draft picks if we wish to retain our players

 

[Blewy]

3 words Lord, Get over it....

Im sorry but i try to do something good for the people who lost players BUT once again what do we get????
Complaints...

Retirements are part of life, you were not entitled to rookies, and if you want i will take them back and force you to keep 10 from your original squad, would you prefer that??? Thats what the people had to do last season....

 

[age_master]

i agree, retirements are part of sport and they happen, get over it

I think this is the best thing to do as many of the teams are getting undue advantage over us and it should be same as the last season.It should had been announced at the start of the season that rookie would be given to the teams whose players will retire.

You can see yourself the QLD side for eg.They lost 3 of their worst players and a good one and got 2 great rookies and 3 good ones.Now their team is fully made.They dont need any more player.This is totally unfair.

I thing no youth should be alloted and the retirements should be accepted as they are.

OR another option only if finance is added

All the retired players will have a salary which will be given to the teams to invest.I think this will be the fairest of all only if finance is included.

I think to allot rookies for the retired players is absolutely unfair.

In real many players who retire prematurely come back.EG J Srinath,C Hooper etc. And always players retire from 1st class much later than tests.Only 1 out of 1000 retire early.

I think the best solution is to not to allot rookies as the teams get undue advantage and the question is what we have done wrong.

All the teams have at least one great rookie except mine and hamp.I know its luck of the draw but not fair at all.

 

[Blewy]

I can understand your dissapointment that you have got a couple of not so good players, but like someone said earlier on in this thread, if you had got 2 good rookies there would be no complaints on your behalf...

Unfortunatley thats the luck of the draw, the players were totally drawn from the program randomly and there is always going to be a couple of people unhappy...

This idea seems to be welcomed by many so we'll see how it goes...
Like i said before there is no obligation for you to keep them you can trade them off, or you can drop them from your team all together...

 

[aditya]

But all the other teams are getting undue advantage.All are happy as they have got good rookies for their bad players.Why not just drop the rookie players and leave it like last season.Every team whose players have retired have atleast one great player coming in.And in any game if good players retire we get good rookies and for bad players ok rookies then why not here.

The best thing is to have finance and give extra amount equal to the players salary to all the teams whose players have retired as in the real life.This will be the best option as no one will get advantage.

Or if finance is not included then we should get draft picks better than the others as our best players have retired.

I am very upset from the time this news has come and i think its not at all fair.Something better than this should be implemented so that no team gets undue advantage over the other.

Now the teams like QLD will have so many players to trade and will have so many options and our options are limited.

Not all teams have got good players and not all have complained, so far only 2 have complained, others have been disspointed but gotten on with things...

Why not just drop the rookie players and leave it like last season.

This is a idea i have brought in to assist in the trading, QLD would have had 4 players retired and then only 12 players left to trade with, now is that there fault??? Also in real life, if a player retires the most obvious choice to replace them is to bring in a youth player...

Every team whose players have retired have atleast one great player coming in.And in any game if good players retire we get good rookies and for bad players ok rookies then why not here.

There are quite a few teams who have not got great players... IMO you use the word GREAT to easily...
Look at some of the players in this years teams who are rookies just cause their stats are good doesn't mean they have performed...

The best thing is to have finance and give extra amount equal to the players salary to all the teams whose players have retired as in the real life.This will be the best option as no one will get advantage.

Finance is not included yet so how could this be implemented yet???

Or if finance is not included then we should get draft picks better than the others as our best players have retired.

You have chosen to have older players and if they retire why should you get a benefit of getting a higher or even more draft picks then others???

I am very upset from the time this news has come and i think its not at all fair.Something better than this should be implemented so that no team gets undue advantage over the other.

Now the teams like QLD will have so many players to trade and will have so many options and our options are limited.

All in all this is the fairest way to please everyone....
This decision as i said has only created waves from 2 people, and as they say u can never please everyone...
if i please 28 out of 30 then im doing pretty well...

Northern Districts are not surprised by the news that Jonty Rhodes will be retiring at the end of the season. Eyes_Only was reported as saying:"The Mangement and Staff of Northern Districts wish Jonty Rhodes all the best for his retirement and for the future. He has been a solid member of the team for the last two seasons and he will be missed. We also wish his replacement O Cardew, all the very best for his association with the team and club and hope it is a long and fruitful one for all concerned"

 

[marc71178]

To his credit, nibblet is possibly as hard hit as anyone, and he's not moaned one bit (unusally for him )

I lost a player who I had very good trades offered for last season, but turned them down. It's my own fault (especially since he's been doing a chocolate teapot impression all season!)

 

[marc71178]

Now the teams like QLD will have so many players to trade and will have so many options and our options are limited.

No, they'll have 16 to trade with - same number as everyone else (before players are dropped)

 

[aditya]

they will have 16 players but better than the 3 guys who have retired who no one would have taken for trade.

Now they can trade the replacements easily as they are much better.

If it is included in the coming season then shouldnt we get the salaries of the retired players?

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

Aditya, that's the roll of the dice. You'll have to deal with it. It's true to life. No team can be on top forever, because there are retirements and new players come into the team. Those new players usually aren't as good as their predecessors but that's life.

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

That wouldn't happen in real life. If a player decides to retire, he still gets his full salary unless he's under contract. There are no contracts in WCC.

Here there are no contracts so i think we should get back the salary of the retired people so that we can invest it if we dont want the rookie.

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

Did you not read what I typed??? I said because there are no contracts the players would be paid in full of their salary in real life. This would mean that whether a player retires prematurely or not, the team would not be reimbursed in terms of money.

 

[marc71178]

Since we don't know for sure a salary method, surely this is all speculation?

 

[Blewy]

Maybe, But the whole idea was to make it even so that all teams had the same amount of players they could trade...

Now surely you couldn't expect everyone to get the same quality player, and its the same case with the start of the season rookies, you could get 2 duds there but what can you do??

nothing, its part of life....

 

[lord_of_darkness]

A better system should be thought of to replace this ... ?
