Touch over for a Medium, but the XP is very nice. Half way to Excep/excep too.

Overall, not too bad.

Thought that was the case. Exp, talent and age drew me in with his wage. I had him for 550k with a couple minutes to go

That's a nice player there cookie. But may i please ask, why is it that you never go through with a plan? you had a plan to go all 20yo's then change it and spread out the ages of the players not too long after and now you sell some of your squad, change countries and buy similar players? It may seem harsh but it looks like you're trying to avoid the big divisions in fear of being beaten. Using the "i'm rebuilding" phrase to those who question you're success as a manager.

Wasn't planning to go full 20 year old cause it would have royally flowered me over in the future when they were all ready to retire. My original plan was to have 3/4 players from each age (20-23) by this stage, which I have done. I haven't changed countries I was planning on it as part of a Garage idea. Unless you were absent from the Sri Lankan forums, which you weren't cause you quoted and replied to my response where I stated " div 3 is weak this season. I'm sitting second gonna push for promotion

At the time i had forgotten about the change countries bit, and when i posted above i forgot about the promotion bit. I suppose if you are staying in SL then all is forgiven, just did seem a bit like you were trying to avoid the tough leagues when i first saw you were changing countries. :-\

It was nothing to do with difficulty as I love a good challenge. It was mainly because of work and the Garage association

Torpedo10

Forgot to set orders so my reli/reli bowler opened the batting.....and scored 51.  :P

K. Musa 4-0-39-1, J. Orr 1 (1b), L. Schreurs 12 (11b)
End of over 20 (13 runs) - Torpedo's Titans(155-7) RR 7.75

On a Hard/Cloudy it's defendable.....just hope it's not close.  :P

Like that player Cookie. Would have been well in but the missus called just before JuJohs auctions ended so missed out.

Good buy.

Messaged y'all Ash's plan. Feel free to suggest something which I'll pass on.

Overspend though. If you went over 700k he was yours

Sapientia

He's the kind of player I'd keep for his career so price isn't really an issue. Hate the terms over/under spend; different levels of spending are acceptable for different teams.

That's the way I feel as well. Prices really depend on a) the amount of teams requiring a player b) how much those sides require the player c) the money available.

Couple of teams for all and it could go well over what the community thinks
