I have never been contacted about Faletoese, never been given a skill guideline (having asked 3x), and had never received a skill check until this season. I PM'ed your old NT manager, Brooksy, at the end of season 24 and he had never heard of Faletoese. Meanwhile, he was better than a SF who was currently on the team around that time (Drury). I understand neither he or Drury should have been on the team at that time, but it's still a relevant piece of info.

I feel terrible about doing this, but this is more of a 10 month thing than a 30 second thing. I've had other bad NT experiences; I once had a big man replaced on my own country's NT by a player equal or lower in every single skill except +4 JR (this was a case of favouritism to GM-RiP's player). I really think it's reasonable for me to try standing up for myself now.

I want to reiterate that this is more about the other player than Faletoese. I actually don't even really care if Faletoese makes it. I'm just angry that I get the impression that said other player made it while there should be several of more worthy Australians (even if you limit by position).

And honestly, please don't even waste your time PM'ing me unless you want to give an extremely brief skill recommendation. You do have better SFs than Faletoese and you do have better SGs than Faletoese (although not the player in question). Faletoese very rarely pops too, so it's not a big deal.

Parsons is basically there for defense and outside shooting whereas Faltoese is more of a SF


I've beyond lost my dignity, but I'll also leave a final tip; HND/DRV/PAS have a strong influence on many offences (especially things like motion, push, LI, princeton) and HND also has a minor influence on OD and steals.

I have seen this mentioned before but the only evidence provided was the "logic" of hands being involved. I'm assuming there is now statistical evidence of this, can you point me to it?
