Cap/Reli going into 18 years old is good??

Yeah it is pretty good to have. I am lucky to have 2 players like that this season

[valkorum]

I generally like to have them at least reli/reli by the EOS when they are 18.  Normally I have them at accom/reli

So for a non youth farm to have cap/reli, that is pretty good.

Yeah this is the first gen youth for this account. So it was training while I was still upgrading my academies. I'm at Lavish now, apparently that's the most effective Academy for it's price.

[valkorum]

Lavish is definitely a good starting point - I personally run a Deluxe

[PowerBug]

No superior is the most cost efficient. But if you are running a youth farm you should go to Deluxe. If you are running a Home Grown side then lavish is probably a good starting point to try and get your youths training quickly.

[Pkbaldy]

Hmmm I might be best to keep on upgrading then. I couldnt' give a flower about seniors on this at the moment... Until Alec Grant and Co are turning 20...

No point spending money on something you aren't utilising (SA). And may as well spend all the money on YA as you'll obviously get better players from it.



And because I'm bored, let's see how mayn Spare Ratings my entire Senior squad has...

Austin - 2843 (33 next season)
Aronstam - 1913 (31)
Kumar - 4723
Oppenheimer - 4765
Roach - 2117
Bitwott - 4261 (30)
Lwana - 3187
Byrd - 3086 (29)
Rasil - 3013 (28)
Al-Attiyah - 3636 (27)
Maloney - 2482 (26)
Livera - 2917 (25)
Hankey - 1683
Tasleem - 2575 (24)
Illeperuma - 2717
Madu - 2127 (23)
Palanivel - 3420 (22)
Naushard - 2641 (21)
Dorenagama - 3162
Hevey - 3381
Stevenson - 3972
Gamaarachchi - 2219 (20)
Wickramapala - 3208

At least no one besides Hankey has a really low number. Al-Attiyah probably the most exciting of the lot as I know he's base in Power and Fielding :) Might be close to getting both batting and bowling to Spec!
