My team's first ever captain and given his first game in ages at the weekend in the cup since i needed to rest some guys. He has this week lowered a level in Stamina. 33yo stat may be the cause of this, but i will keep him around to see what happens as he ages

A cautious player with abysmal leadership skills and abysmal experience.

Nice pop for Dodd. Ludlam popped to respectable concentration, and Heath popped in experience - despite a golden duck in his 1 innings this season.

2 pops for me, but more interestingly a de-pop (need a better word than that )

I think the term 'plop' is used by some people, which I must admit to quite liking

 

[Jaztheman]

Plop

Marsden is absolute gold

 

[Griffo]

theres no new U-19 manager, only NT is changing...

Thats not what I heard, the existing U19 coach wont be around for the next world cup

Where can you find all the international fixtures??

Lol Plop is a Double Pop?

 

[voldemort]

its the opposite of a pop...

 

[Griffo]

Oh I get it now I thought you were talking about Eagles for the Plop

 

[The Spin]

Plop

Marsden is absolute gold

Amazingly enough he is only borderline for U19. We will have to see if he manages to get into the U19 squad for the WC or not. It all depends on whether another manager has been training properly and can inform our U19 manager about the player's stats

Here were my pops for this week.

 

[TheDon]

gough is the best player ive ever seen

 

[aussie1st]

Hes nothing special the over achiever guys would be nearing quality at that same time.

 

[GrayNicolls]

So? He should still be Remarkable by the end of this season, and that's good enough for me and most teams.

 

[aussie1st]

Never said he wasn't good just saying to TheDon that isn't the best player floating about.

 

[ZoraxDoom]

gough is the best player ive ever seen

You haven't seen Ryan Crouch, Lennox Rudi, Bill Tuckett, Wavell Folkes or Xavier Eli then
Even Zat Falken and Mohaideen Abdeen were worth a look in...

 

[Griffo]

Keep living in the past Zorax... The Real "Challenge" is getting you and effine to stop talking about your past players

 

[ZoraxDoom]

Of my current squad, Stearman is gold and Brookes will be brilliant
