Oooh goody, I like being the underdog. ;)


Thanks for the write up. I guess I had myself ahead of Balwyn and Millers as I know my players skills.
But I don't know theirs and I don't know anyone elses bank roll.

Ooops and the landscape changes with the purchase of Ty Raftery, the aussie veteran. :)

Rofl, well that makes a difference and yes I do know a bit about individual player strengths and weakness from most of the starters with about 8 teams but I can't give up all the knowledge(really isn't that much, play way to many browser games to devote to much time on one).

I'd give your side maybe a rating of 21 or 22 now, most certainly the fave now as it stands barring injuries, GS etc. I'll have to make a purchase or two this season. Really didn't want to, but if I want to have a chance at promotion it seems a formality.

Funny thing is, I put that bid on Ty days ago and had completely forgot about it. Woke up this morning and hey, new SG. and he's a bad ass. :)

From here on out I will probably look at replacing my bench players with actual players and not just cheapo scrubs.


Can't wait for the season to start up and get this show on the road. :)

Yeah it's shaping up to be very competitive with maybe 4 real chances for promotion and a few roughies. He's going to be tough to match up on. Willing to let me know what his inside shooting/defence is like skill wise? lol Sounds strange maybe to some to ask of that of a SG but I know how dangerous a good inside SG can be and seriously underated. Not many sides have guards or even SF's with good inside skills these days. I love to train up my guards with inside skills and will be working on that a bit this year. Pantelidis has played on many a opposition twice his salary and completely outplayed them, his salary is not a true indicator of ability. Not the most spectacular of shooters but not to shabby either but it's periphial skills like handling, passing and inside defence that make him so versitile, plus he has an amazing assist to turnover rate. Rarely turns the ball over even once a game. Just wish I did single position training on him, he would of been a superstar by now. Oh wells, my next round of youngsters(next year maybe depending on promotion) will be one position training exclusively and I'm looking forward to the project.

I could tell you his stats, but I'm simply not that generous. haha

He is likely to play SG for most games.
He could do ok as PG/SF also. But I have solid players for those positions. :)


COME ON SATURDAY!

On the lookout for a certain player atm, have one lined up now but not sure if I'm willing to pay more than 550k, well thats my limit on this position I'm looking to fill.

Which position?

Well ideally PF, I could compromise on a C or SF with the appropiate skills but that would involve maybe a further squad reshuffle. Really dislike even listing players, the fans hate it and I've noticed it can make a big difference on attendances. So yeah a PF, my budget ceiling barring any sales is about 40k salary but I might push that to 50k if needed.

so you're after a <$50k PF for <$550k purchase price.
If I get some time I'll have a look around, but you know what skill set you're after.
I'm assuming it's some decent IS/REB skills with nice JS/driving and good enough ID.
