    I am, but I've got my foot up on the bed due to my ankle injury and I'm typing on the iPad at the same time.

    Cheers Droos. Still quite shocked to be here! Need a top performance tonight. Drawn the away team (never trust the game) and Gilgil has top energy and massive (I mean massive) players. But it's the cup and I definitely have a shout! Keep those fingers crossed! I want number 5!!!!!

    I saw that he has some mad top players, but he drops heavily after his top 5 players. His 15th best player is just over 70k, so he is undeniably strong up top, but weakens very fast!

    Yea, but it is how those weaker CSR players stack up in terms of tactics and set up and if the top few are stopped and not allowed to dictate things. When a team has a few top guys, they can be very dangerous if things are done well throughout the team. I'd rather a consistent 15 any day of the week, but it is going to come down to small margins. I think I have everything in place to the best I can, though crappy injury and being down on energy stink in this situation!!

    I actually prefer ave CSR above the tactic of having a couple of monster and the rest very far below par, I have seen many such teams and those crappy players at the bottom drag them down every time!

    Tbf to Gilgil they are not well below par players. They in comparison to his top guys, but not really in comparison to mine.

    But I completely agree with what you are saying. If you come up against a team who are consist throughout it makes it quite tough, but with those stars you can get "one of those days2 where they dictate play and are simply unstoppable. Hope not tonight!

    Sure you don't want weak links in your line-up but you definitely need atless 1 or 2 stars if you are going to be any good.

  15. Mattt MP Jones

    Yea I agree with Squeaks. It is pretty tough going unless you have a good bit of £££ to hav depth. When I was any good and had great battles with Squeaks we both use to have weaknesses IIRC. Though some great players too. I can remember I'd have a team all over 140k+ CS but my wingers would often be 70/80 even 60K. I just use to make sure they had speed above 10 and defence around 15. That use to work a treat for me, and if you have a set-up that can fit them in, it works a treat.

    As for last night, well it just wasn't meant to be. 31-3 down I think inside 30 minutes, managed to claw it back to 28-31 but ran out of time. I have taken advantage of a few guys having a sh*t day of it with the Match Engine so can't really complain.

    Big thing now is another mini rebuilding process has to take place. I will take a huge dip in quality now and hopefully manage to pull it back up for the playoffs if I can make it, which is a long long shot.

    The stats were real close, I think the bounce of the ball determined the outcome as there was nothing else that was significant enough to flip the outcome one way or another. Good luck in mini rebuilding, again.

    Playing in the SZC semi tonight away vs Safe Hands, again, will lose, again! #sonofabitch#

    Good luck Droos.

    Look at my ratings tonight and tell me they have removed HGA when comparing to last night. Absolute bollux that is, game gets more frustrating by the day

    Croatias 17 year old's, easily the best we've produced so far, also the most 17 year olds we've had got about 50 to choose from!! And already at the same level our current team was at when they ended their first season!!

    1 30,413
    2 36,833
    3 30,625
    4 30,860
    5 38,390
    6 32,807
    7 35,962
    8 36,772
    9 31,698
    10 34,139
    11 28,997
    12 32,726
    13 39,900
    14 27,706
    15 35,153

    How do we compare to your nations? Zimbabwe? Belgium?

    I'd say we are around the same Darts. Got a couple of 40k already and a few pushing for it, but all in all not much difference at all.

    Current U20 are 7-7 with NZ away from home
