Getting a base squad together for the upcoming season.
The players aren't great, but we need to start somewhere :P
Hoping to do well in Div5 and pump the Academy along the way.
The next EOS sell up and do it again!

Ah he's an AR. Will already have two and not sure a third will be needed. :P

Still, I'll have the funds so if he comes along well enough might just sell one of mine and take him. >:D
I still need a finger spinner for this season though and there aren't many good ones on the market at the moment which is...unusual.
Cookie wants him anyway, as I'm sure others will as well. Ali is good though if you overspend a little. He'll be worth it in the end.
Yeah Nails is kind of confusing me now and I am half considering 1 more bid. :-\

The TM is really freakin' horrible these days. :(
I swear the TM used to be a bit of fun...

Which is why unless I have to I don't use it. Too many nuffies. Last guy I bought that actually has been needed for me was Boom, at the end of last season (And I may still sell him)

Easy to get spuds though :P

Who was bidding Ali so high? It will be adjusted I reckon. That's a lot for a finger spinner

He is an out/outs 20 y.o I doubt it will be adjusted...

Some guy ranking outside the top 2k I think...Probably hoarding cash not unlike myself. Took me all the way from 400k to this...Luckily I underspent on some others to cover this. :S

He sold for 1.4 mil

There is a 1k difference in wage to be fair.

Yeah it's overs but you pay a premium to get the best players even if they're only the best by a little bit. If I do get him he will be a beast of a bowler for me for 10 seasons time so it's a decent long term investment in my opinion..,Gah nails you're in my head. :o

worth it?
No, not at that amount.

No talent, only just spec/spec, lacks power. I bought Tikolo for $203k when he was 20yo and he had those talents at that age too.

He's far better, but I don't want to improve your ratings against me in Div 2, so I hope you don't get him :P
