Daynason Learmond

Bought for 44k. Overpay? Has minimum experience needed. Decent Secondaries so went a little higher than I would have liked.

Ordinary really isn't that bad :P
I bought Monty (exp/exp 20 y.o project) and Horton (accom/accom finisher) who both have ord exp. They'll both play every game though, give or take a T20 game or two while I'm still in the PC. While their exp will always be behind guys like Pyke & O'Brien, they'll still have decent enough exp.

Got sent in to bat, so ended up having to bat out the 50 (made 427) instead of bowling first and having the whole game after 50 overs.
Frustrating stuff.

Oh well, opened Shagmeister on D as he's been having a bad trot, worked a treat but now he'll be smashed >:(

Thanks Alex. He won't be in my First XI, but is decent backup and can use him on Spinner Pitches. Need to get another Project Batter as Pav Cup for another 2 weeks :-\.

Nice win Alex, even though you had to bat first! That 200+ score is gonna kill him :o. Hopefully you can beat your opponent next week although he rates pretty well :(. Then we could play off to move into the 6th round (Halfway through!).

I played my best side as I wanted to see how much I dropped in rating since selling my ex WK Lindsey for O'Brien.

I made 315 with Rowley making 144, then Boomz was bowled out for 144. Thanks for the game Boomz ;)

I basically played my best side although I didn't play Torres coz he was for sale & wanted to see how my young FM went. I did pretty flowered up bowling orders too :-X Still messing around with them. No success yet :p

Thought you were giving up?

[8-6 Suited]

He has. He is offering to buy peoples players for moneys.

[CrowsFan]

Buying players for well over their value is cheating though

hey i will buy players for their value.

i never said about paying over.

Yes, yes it is  >:(

I have been buying 20yr olds that get missed on the TM at 1k and putting them back on in a different time slot, with mixed results. I know I only get 50% but when you're buying at 1k and selling at 10k (one at 26k) it is worth it. Some people are naive and get caught in bidding wars for low quality players - have they cheated? have I? - no.

Maybe what cookie monster is proposing is not with the intent of cheating but the clever manipulation of the system to assist fellow members with some monetary leverage. It's like if your parent dies slowly and they wish to see you spend the inheritance, they get to enjoy watching the pleasure you get before they go.

everyone puts a different value on each and every player depending on there need for that player, i wouldn't mind paying extra for a player that i really needed, so who's to say what player is truly worth?  Like buying a house, might be worth 250k to someone, 350k to someone else, thats why they do it in auction form.
