Hello fellow FF FTPers.
I am looking for an outstanding (not the skill) batsman under 24 years of age. I have been looking for a while and haven't found anything yet.
I will be willing to start at 200k, lower if I don't think the players are worth that starting, and will bid up to 250k.
Sorry none of my players would be what you are looking for ;)
24 outs/exp, been on tech for a while?
Doubt it but can hope.

I have Spectacular 23yr old?
ive got a couple of 22yo exp/exp, probs not good enough though...
Got a few Alex, they are pretty good. Not sure if I'll sell them.
Drew Currie - http://www.fromthepavilion.org/player.htm?playerId=311679
David Sweeney - http://www.fromthepavilion.org/player.htm?playerId=254139
They are both closed Barlow...The exp is not a good start for either though.
Who might that be Maca? I am extremely interested, although he'd probably go well beyond what I can pay (if I take out all academy investments...320k)
Exp/exp 22 y.os are good Zz, but I wouldn't start at 200k for them, any preferences for a starting price?

Hmm. I do have Mahesh but Lesnar sounds like he is better. I'd hate for you to put him up if I missed him though :\
If you don't want to sell then don't Zz ;)
http://www.fromthepavilion.org/player.htm?playerId=425634
http://www.fromthepavilion.org/player.htm?playerId=385067 - Good captain
http://www.fromthepavilion.org/player.htm?playerId=412704 - most likely to give up
Secondaries are probs not where you want them, for all 3, kind of attatched to them so would want a decent amount of cash :)
Also, but not as good;
http://www.fromthepavilion.org/player.htm?playerId=379751 - much better secondaries.
http://www.fromthepavilion.org/player.htm?playerId=486090 - terrible secondaries, but only 20yo.
If you want Lesnar he needs a big offer ;)
I'd sell Currie for $150k. :)
I would actually be up for that. His talent fits what I need him to do (bat at 5) so...This may work :D
I like the first 2 Zz, but I can't make an offer until I see what happens with Currie, sorry :\
Maca, as much as I would love Lesnar right now I need batsmen, I have 2 promising finger spinners and can't afford to spend 300k on another when I would rather invest it elsewhere.
So, Barlow. Start him at 150k?

did he? kool :D didnt see that
De Rooy and McDowall are my number 3 and 1, how much would ya offer ;) ?
Well. If I got Currie for 150k I would start at 50 and go up to 100. Probably not enough for you though?
i did only get McDowall for 16k and De Rooy for 10k but yeh theyre my best batsman :-\ bar Subdoh bhut he doesnt count cos hes 28
http://www.fromthepavilion.org/player.htm?playerId=412297
You know you want him, but you ain't getting him!
Coming along nicely R&B ;) I concede he is and will be better than Collins, but both are simply awesome players ;)
Is he getting a regular game for you now? Hasn't played nearly as many senior games as Collins :P
Yeah I've sold off Ali and Hof to force mysle to play him haha
That's what the Candian NT member suggested.

Just look at Willow, he is a beast but with a 2 level boost in exp he would be more than a beast. He'd be Willow Norris.
That reminds me if I ever get another Shaggy his name shall be Shaggy Norris ;D Elder brother of Chuck, he is wiser, stronger and just better.
Maybe if I get my membership I will change Teakles' name? Hmm
I would buy you a membership but I just can't right now :'(
Just made a rather large purchase so I need to not spend money for a while... :P Or I might need to dip into my savings :\
Haha nah it's alright, I should be recieving my prize from GC sooner or later ;)
Cool :)
I don't know what you would call him ... Andrew Swallow?
Haha yes when Damage was my mentor we were talking about that, he had a whole bunch of Kangas players and asked if I wanted him to change any of the names so I could use them.I suggested Swallow, and he said he was about to sell him soon to may change it beforethat. Could you please do a search for me to find out?
Nah there is no Andrew Swallow I checked before I suggested it :)
Thanks Damage, true to your word! ;)
And thanks for that Alex :)
Swallow possibly then for Teakles? I do LOVE them both..
Or both? It is the same person ;) They breed 'em good in Canada.

When u look at his endurance, power & experience + the fact he's a medium it isn't that surprising but still a handy player for u for 1k :) nice talents too.

McKintosh, Lesnar and French mine. Have2 say I appreciate them more than the oldies.
Im tempted to have a cleanout at EOS... league results are so hard2 achieve.

Nice :)
Alex, GS has just put a couple players on sale here... I'll link you to them.
Shakil Arman or something. 21yo exp/exp FM with average experience and good secondaries.
http://fromthepavilion.org/player.htm?playerId=414939
Oh and he put Sayers on the market haha :P
Also considering selling Simon parsonage
http://fromthepavilion.org/player.htm?playerId=345021
Put a bid in so that I can keep a tab on him...Dunno why I didn't just bookmark him. Oh well :P Thanks Shaggy :D
No problems. GS is in debt a fair bit due to his high wages, trying to clear some of it up lol Down like 50k with his academies now both at meagre lol haha
bahaha. Nice work I remember when he was uber rich :P
He is paying the same as my wages basically lol Was never going to be a good choice. Plus he needs a keeper as his is utterly useless lol
How bad could his keeper possibly be?
I think he is like reasonable/capable/outstanding with accomplished fielding. Great keeper but showerful batsman for his middle order haha

So in other words....Ethan Cain 6.0 :P
How old though? He is alright I suppose.
I think he is 26 or something. Just not good enough for his team to improve though. Weakens the depth of his batting, so I told him tot ry get some cash to go for someone that can.

Oh in that case he is very average :\
Is a major weakness for him as it means his tail therefore goes from 6, not 7-8 like most people.
I think, not sure but I think, that Allen's batting summary is like reasonable so it is terrible. :x
Yeah that is rubbish, even Collins is better at 21. Reli/reli/exp...
Doubt Sayers will get a bite at 100k with (still) ordinary exp.
I reckon he will personally. The skills will get a noob onto it.
If he had started him lower I would have had a go at him, could play 2 AR's..
Actually i have a 21 yr old acc/outs.

Hmmm...I'm not sure :\ With the exp maybe 30k but could go for a lot more or a lot less depends how many noobs bid on him :P

How much would you pay?
I would certainly look at him. I bought Shagmeister with the same primaries and age for 110k. But he had lower exp and secondaries. Not 100% sure how much I'd pay but certainly well north of 200k.
is he a NAT?
Quote from: Cicjose on April 29, 2011, 12:28:42 PM
is he a NAT?
No, he's Australian. Too much depth in the Aussie ranks. He might squeeze in one of the monior nations, but not Australia.
He doesn't have enough experience to be a NAT. He'd probably need to be at least spec/spec as well. Shaggy would be best to ask.
Doubt it being from Australia Cic. FTP slow right now so I can't check. Shagmeister is English so he'll never get in. Still he'll reach excep/excep and has already proven he will be a great club player for me :)
Damn its so hard to get a Nat for Australia your academies have to pretty much be deluxe to have a chance :(
Yeah it is. Academy doesn't neeed to be deluxe but it needs to be very good, and it needs to be a very good player and he needs to be trained well.
Still trying to decide if I'm going to take Shagmeister to excep/excep or spec/spec with beter secondaries. Seeing as he won't play NAT it may be a little excessive to go to excep/excep no?
That's right Cic or you could just buy one :P
Alex could you post a link to your guy?

Why not go to excep/excep then work on secondaries, he'll be awesome then.
http://www.fromthepavilion.org/player.htm?playerId=340508
Training fielding at the moment as it is average and needs quite a bit of work. Taking it to capable and then I will re-assess.
Close to an exp pop also.
True Fletch. But with the tiered training over outstanding it may be tough. Took me well over a season to get Shagmeister these pops. :|
I really need to work on fielding before that slows to a crawl as well :\ Luckily he has gifted power.
Alex he's locked.
Can't see him Alex.
Well I'm doing that with Thomson. He doesn't need anymore fielding for a while, and his endo should pop with the primary training, and as he's a medium and has reasonable power. There is nothing left to train him in.
yeah alex neal is the out/expert 21 year old. got his fielding to pop twice this season already so going strong.
gotta love neals talents though. Skilled(Technique) and Gifted(Batting). Awesome that is
