Not really. You can get a 17 YO version of that for quite cheap.

 

[Ollie_H]

why though? I have always wondered why people said don't train him?

 

[aussie1st]

He will train slower than the 17yo and you lose 1 season worth of training on the 18yo. If you stop both at 23 the 17yo gets 6 seasons worth of training while the 18yo gets 5.

so basically, baker cocked up in not telling me to train him last year?

 

[aussie1st]

Pretty much That's the only thing you can do with 17 yo apart from sell them or have them for bot bashing.

Up yours!!! I couldn't fit all your players onto a training schedule, there were always gonna be some who couldn't be trained just due to how many 17 year olds you had.

Yes

To be fair though, he could have set nets for like 7 players but then you'd progress painfully slowly but as a whole. I for one like things to happen a touch quicker. Boils down to this though: You can't train everyone!

My new best batter.

Surmon has him for breakfast

EDIT:

Surmon up to quality fielding and Houghton upto respectable consistency.

Hope Surmon gets a big pop this season, it's his last season of training.

Lol, stamina and fielding. :doh

A concentration pop would have been nice!

Anyway, if I have someone else worth nets, I will change his fielding (as it trains better when he gets older) and his stamina (as it trains the same at any age).

So:

Would I be better off giving him stamina and fielding...or this beast 2 bowling

I'm going to go 2 bowling on Wotton, actually. It's a while into the season, but if I can train him up just for a few pops or a season or two, he will be a solid player, but not a star. I'd be stopping at strong/superb if I went on, or maybe around quality.

EDIT: No. One bowling and one rotating stam/field net for the team.
