My side isn't THAT old, just the 4 older guys I bought to help this season.

I currently have:

1 x 25yo
4 x 26yo
5 x 27yo
2 x 28yo

^ pretty young for a Div 1 team. Am going to look at adding another ~27yo.

2 x 30yo
2 x 31yo

Really I would have liked to try and win, but any 20yo I bought wouldn't get a game all season. The idea was to have an olderish squad in div 1 and have a genuine shot at winning.

However with Labrooy it's impossible. He rated 282K today

I'll just rebuild if I have to.
That is at the moment though. Remember they age 1 year this weekend. Labrooy is almost done though. His side is nearing retirement. You can't keep doing the rebuild process. Need to add a structure to keep your side running for the long haul

You should try running a senior and youth academy. I have done it to keep the constant flow of players. It provides more enjoyment

Still a lot of div 1 teams are just full of 30yos. Granted Turbz team are all guns too. Maybe I just do a youth rebuild when they all old. Or continually buy 30yos for forever

The younger 12 will be an average age of 27.66 which isn't too bad. Also the 2 x 28yos are probably 2 of the worst players in the team.

I'm also considering selling my spec/spec/spec AR and adding a spin AR or someone else.

On a different note, I was watching this game the other day. I totally forgot to follow it through to the end.

Myself vs. PB's affiliate in youths

End of over 29 (4 runs) - Off the Radar(121-4). 53 runs required from 11 overs. RR 4.17 RRR 4.82
M. Wijeratne 33 (54b), T. Seeman 20 (27b), Q. Abdellah 7-1-21-0

End of over 39 (8 runs) - Off the Radar(167-9). 7 runs required from 1 overs.

End of over 40 (6 runs) - Off the Radar(173-9).

Match tied

Turbz is a player that pumps money into both academies and just feeds his good youths into his seniors. Something I am hoping to do. As the teams become better and my finances improve, then better players will become available.

If you do, let me know. I need a seam all rounder

Today is a nothing game for me. Not much to take from the match if I was to play full strength. Instead I will be playing Anthony Pettis and James Piper

Will be interesting to see how my young future go

Both players bowled pretty well
J. Piper (rf) 9 1 45 2 5.00 3 1
A. Pettis (rfs) 10 1 30 2 3.00 0 0

Thinking I might have 1 more season left in Netherlands with my affiliate. Considering moving to Scotland

Pretty sure you're still not allowed to move countries with your affiliate.

That's what I thought. I thought you could only move an affiliate if a new country became available

I thought you could move it

That is from the affiliate team of kiwi2011
14 Jul 13 03:34 Club transferred from New Zealand to South Africa at the end of season 20

I think maybe back when they brought in the credits to move your main option you had a one time choice to move your affiliate. (not sure though)

This season will be the last in which clubs can switch countries for free.

Starting after the end of season updates, the following restrictions will be placed on team transfers

1. Teams will be able to freely switch countries at no cost for the first 4 months (ie the switch request needs to be submitted within 4 months of your team being activated). This caters for teams who mistakenly signed up for the wrong country (perhaps they didnt realise the start times of their matches would be inconvenient) and for teams who have friends in another country and want to play in that country.

2. After the initial 4 month period, it will cost 50 credits to move countries.

3. Affiliate teams will be allowed to switch countries after paying the 50 credit fee. Affiliates cannot move to the same country as a manager's main team.

That was posted in the main forums

I read somewhere on the forum lately where it said affiliates weren't allowed to move teams.

I used to think they could then like 3 weeks ago read something saying they couldn't and according to that from a while ago they can

It's confusing lol
