Power doesn't help spinners much though  ???

I'm going to give him 2-3 more weeks on fielding and hope for a pop... he has 4.2K spare ratings, so want to see if there are some in fielding.
According to NAT managers, it does.
Do it Nails, will benefit him a lot more than a worthless fielding pop. He won't be dropping any catches with Outs fielding anyway.

I'm giving Lesnar 3 power pops after he pops in endo.

He has dropped a catch before  :-X I wasn't happy about it either.

The main reason I'm popping him in fielding is to find out where these SR are... AND I think spec fielding will add a few $K to his sale price when I do sell him down the track.

Average fielding would add more cash IMO.
Thats what I'd look at. Up to you though and I doubt I can convince you otherwise.

Played Roost today in the T20 Cup.

Roost started well with the bat and was 1/60 at one stage. Lesnar got a wicket and a runout straight after trimmed his total to 192. Still a hard score to chase though with a run rate of 9.5 an over.

With the bat I got myself to a commanding position of 2/133, requiring 59 runs from 5 overs. (Achievable IMO)
Roosts fastys cashed in as expected on the Hard pitch and left me 5/169 with an over left.
I needed 23 runs off this over.
Mr.Clutch Robbie Etwaroo kicked us off with a 6 and a 4. 13 runs off 4 balls the target.
Two missed runouts followed each other by Roost but the result was the same.

Roost defeats Maca by 7 runs.

Spin Ratings were great for me, as are my tail ratings.
Need to improve my seam attack and my middle order batting. Will address those issues at EOS.

Unlucky Maca. Hope I can pull off a win against PB today  ;)

Thanks for the game Maca, a lot closer than I think we both expected, exciting stuff.
I checked in after the start and saw I was (as you said above) about 1 for 60 so went about my packing (we are moving house atm). This ol' roost was very 'cocky' and didn't check back in until much later thinking I had it in the bag - wrong, very close result.
The result taught me something again about bowling orders so thankyou for the match and the opportunity to understand how to make my team better.

Good luck to all the other teams  ;D

No worries Roost. We both had some nice ratings  8)

haha damn straight!

well at least some of the fish are biting.
3k for the youth and 14k for the batter ;)

Maca24

Luigi in regards to those players.
They are obviously not a good buy for any FF member so best to stop advertising them as super buys and tell it like it is.  ;)

http://www.fromthepavilion.org/player.htm?playerId=564704 - 4,506 SR

Both due for a tech pop, both would be very good as 20year olds, would anyone like me to put them up for them??
Also how much would i get for them?

Maca24

Nice talents for both. Reckon you would be looking at 50k each for them.
