I think there's quite a bit of uncertainty around... if not in BB in general, then definitely within our own nation.

One thing that is certain is the draft: how'd you guys go? VERY happy with picking up a 6'3" 18yo Superstar... quite lucky.
Comfortable with sharing him at this point of his career:

Given his skills at the moment, I can pretty much go anywhere I like in developing him. Would have liked another 3-4 inches in height!

Thoughts on the draft?

Did somebody go in to the player name database and screw with the names? The names of the draftees are messed up. Frank Fraley, that is NOT a name found in Japan.

So... Chimpy13 (Tokyo Tornadoes) is going to be the new U21 manager - dude... maybe introduce yourself? Even in Japanese would be ok!

Sorry! I meant too but I had no internet for a short spell!

I noticed nobody else was having a punt at it and considering there is a NT Scout tool i figured that would take the workload off scouting. Honestly I don't have much of a speech or anything, Ill drop out if someone else wants it but if I do get it, I will commit.

Nah dude, I'm bailing on it to become the NT manager next season (or... so I'm planning!). New blood around the place'd be good. Great, even.
Just - put a post up, tell us about *you*!

Oh nice! You would be fine for NT!

About me, Errr, I am in my 3rd season with this team, I'm currently training up a young gun so I am somewhat invested in the U21 NT already. I am the sort of person who researches things to death and I have already been looking at all the prospects and seeing who is who and how they might fit with each other on the court.

I have a pretty good grasp of how to train players.... at least in theory! So I hope if anything the small amount of Hall of Famer potential young players we have, I can help their guide their trainers into becoming NT players some day.
