I clicked on the link just for a read

The top of the last is ridiculous for fantasy purposes. It probably lacks defenders, another ruck and is too heavy in terms of KPP in the young guys, but it has a nice base. It will also be difficult picking a captain option because although you have a few guys that are elite in their position you don't have a clear guy that will average 115+ a week. You either role the dice with Gibbs/Goddard for their ceiling or go with Sauce and hope he gives you around 110 a week

I think whoever takes the team will do some trading  :)

I also notice a couple guys no longer in the league in Hardingham and Edwards so if there is a delisting period they would probably need to go

[Pkbaldy]

Hey guys! Pk is interested  :) I'm currently the coach of a BXV team (Crosby Cruisers), and of course i5's team (Greece Lightning), with me also being a Assistant in both WXVs and EXVs. If you want a full application just let me know. Little late and busy so can't do one now haha.

[Football Factory]

Awesome PK  :)

Im sure Sydneyrox will contact you soon about it

Yeah he has, just at the moment I got bugger all time to do a proper application! So I might be able to later tonight or tomorrow night.  Team need a little work with the defence, but looks pretty handy.

Any luck finding a coach?

I think, given the list, we will have to find a relatively new coach on ff forums to appoint. I can't see a more seasoned coach wanting to acquire this club unless they were looking for a Paul Roos-esqe challenge. Should be a strong team in a couple of years so don't want to see another club going defunct, it is only a question of who wants to attempt to build this side towards its future potential over the next few seasons (the hard years - unless they pull off some beneficial trades early). My suggestion is look for a first-time coach with either Supercoach or DT experience (I'll message around as well).

Pkbaldy's Brooklyn Hawks.

I am applying for this coaching position so I can bring this young and uprising side to the top of the ladder. It won't be a goal in 2015, but 2016 would be a most definite. The young mids are nothing to worry about I can see 4-8 players their that should become 100+ scorers. The main probably is it's defense, terrible depth and terrible choices. Not much I can do with that until next year (Unless there is another set of trade periods scheduled). Although it's Captain choices are slim, I still see Goddard, Gibbs and Jacobs being able to pump out high scores for me. I can also see it is a very tall team, mainly in the forward line, but a lot of them are still young and developing so I wouldn't even try to get rid of them this early, as they could still become 95+ scorers in the future.

I have a fair bit of experience with Supercoach, been playing it since I was in year 8 or 9 (4 years out of school now), and back in them days everyone had Judd, Cousins and Kerr in their team, so it's been a while. I finished top 1000 this year in the first year of me actually trying to make a good ranking for myself instead of picking players I liked. So i'm not a complete scrub at knowing who is a good SC player and who is a terrible SC player.

My experiences in the XVIII format in 0, but I am the senior/solo coach of Crosby Cruisers in BXV, the assistant to ML and Nige of Cairo Sands in Worlds, the co-assistant to Eg in T10, and then I am also the Assistant along side Jayman and Toga with coach Nige with Swiss Storm in EXV. Although this has all happened in the last 3-4 months, I plan on staying here for the long run.

It's a bit hard right now to name the best 18, as it's still only pre-season and I will assess the entire thing during and after the NAB challenge, so i'd prefer to not post a best 18. If i get the position, I will be kindly asking the mods/admins of this to be able to delist the 2 players in the list whom should of been delisted anyway, and also gain 2 new players left over from your rookie draft. Don't see how the new coach should be punished for the old coach missing on the delistings (although it could of been done on purpose, no idea why).

I'm not the greatest at doing these applications, but at least if you let me take over this team i'll do my best to get it as far as I can... I'm pretty competitive that way. Thanks.

He'd be like M2 now with Goddard in the FWDs :P No chance you're getting him haha. The pig is mine.

There is a trading period about to go, the only real hold up was this coaching role.

Ahhh I see cool. What about being able to ditch the delisted players that the last coach didn't clean up?  :o Or would I just have to deal with them for the year.
