Your stupid. Why are you buying anybody in the first place when your in serious debt?

 

[mattfb]

Jakes constantly buying players and is constantly in debt lmao.

 

[Hooper]

What a n00b. Just because hes bored?

Just stick to a low number of players in your squad and resist the temptation of buying unneeded players.

I'm after a trainee bowler. I've picked up myself a 'keeper to train (never tried training a keeper so this will be interesting). I've got no idea what nets to give a trainee keeper.

Age: 17 Years Old
Battrick Rating: 4,754
Wages: ?465 p/w
Stamina: mediocre Wicket Keeping: worthless
Batting: mediocre Concentration: respectable
Bowling: worthless Consistency: feeble
Fielding: worthless

Cost me 2k. Will put him on 2 bat in place of my 18yo Resp/feeble. Here is what my nets will be

18yo resp/comp on 2 batting nets
18yo prof/med on 1 bowl, 1 field and 1 wicketkeeper
32yo strong/strong on 1 bowl, 1 field and 1 wk. [He'll go off this schedule if I get another decent trainee]
17yo resp/med on 2 bat.

 

[Hooper]

32yo still on primary training? Get another trainee. Hes past it.

 

[mattfb]

I'm training his secondaries. I need the bowling to make sure his cons pops and not his conc. He's gone from Strong/med to strong/strong in a few weeks. Every second week he pops a few levels in cons.

 

[Hooper]

Wow, thats good! I may do that with this player:

Maurice Dyer (1294282) shortcut

I've got him on a batting net and a fielding net with 2 Sports Psychologists.

How many SPs do you have?

 

[mattfb]

He wouldn't be old enough for his secondaries to pop as quickly as my 32yo. Do you have a good 30+ year old?

I have 2 SP's as well.

Edit: Really good player though. I would stick a WK net on him too.

 

[Hooper]

Nah, no really good 30+ year old to train. I want this guy to pop at least once or maybe twice in both secondaries so he can be a top 6 batsman in my team as well as open the bowling (I'm playing in lowly divisions and plan to for this season and the next).

 

[mattfb]

If he pops just once in both secondaries he would be pretty damn good. If you have At Stumps it should tell you when he should pop. Battrick Helpfile also has something which gives a general idea of how long it will take for a player of a certain age to pop.

On SP Battrick Helpfile

No real time frames.

 

[aussie1st]

They basically tell you to hire a SP for each player you are training. So if you are training 4 you would hire 4.

 

[Hooper]

That makes sense. Cheers.
