Well ive only got 2 Youth Academy products in my whole squad, but some of my products from the Academy have gone on to be very successful.

Grady Oneil was pulled under the old system. Took 133 wickets in 72 games and was sold for ?1.5m last season.

Nigel Semple was also pulled under the old system, he was an amazing pull! I'll try dig out his stats from when he was pulled, but I sold him and since then he has been sold for a whopping ?3.1m!

Here were Semple's stats when I pulled him, when I saw him on the TL recently, I think both his primaries were Superb and his secondaries had gone up to around Competent/Respectable.

Nigel Semple (485553)
RH Batsman, RH Spin Bowler, respectable batting form, respectable bowling form, fresh
An attacking player with mediocre leadership skills and abysmal experience.

Plays For: Briggs XI

Wages: ?2,039 p/w

Stamina: worthless Wicket Keeping: respectable
Batting: respectable Concentration: abysmal
Bowling: respectable Consistency: worthless

The two I have in my squad now.

Des Midworth - 17 yo, BT Rating=9,844

A cautious player with abysmal leadership skills and abysmal experience.
Stamina: respectable Wicket Keeping: respectable

Graham Storer - 18 yo, BT Rating=10,931

A cautious player with worthless leadership skills and abysmal experience.
Stamina: competent Wicket Keeping: abysmal
Batting: worthless Concentration: worthless
Bowling: respectable Consistency: proficient

Just goes to show how the products of the Academy can differ, I dont get much luck, or didnt until I got Midworth.

Hoping to pull a pretty decent 20 YO today, no free nets for a trainee.

Wavell Folkes - Med/Resp/Med week 1 17 YO, now a Superb bowler.
Leeroy Spearitt - Mediocre bat with high cons, fielding and stamina. 20 YO, but pretty good. Will be extremely useful when FC games come.
Xavier Eli - You all know him.

That's it really. I bought Rudi and Abdeen.
