The only other player in last season's series who was a Queenslander and played for Norths was Adam Vago.

The bigger shame is actually for the players who've broken through this season. Someone like Os du Toit would be a guaranteed starter for Norths, I'd think, whilst he won't be anywhere near consideration for Souths.

 

Quite, but I'll only change it if there are decent reasons for it as the status quo is obviously simpler.

 

Pretty sure Du Toit has always been Souths. Would have played ahead of Cevno even last year IMO.

Forgot about Pilgrim but he'd be dropped anyway.

Anyway there's no need to worry about the front row when we have Niru

 

I'm sure under the CricSim model, he'd have been Norths this year along with all other South Africans. I think last season, South Africa didn't have any place in the mix whatsoever. I mean, they're still well short of having a team but at least they've got a bit of presence.

But yeah, Niru will deliver the goods.

 

Farcical. Definitely a time to keep things simple. Northern Hemisphere vs. Southern Hemisphere.

 

The Vimes as South African thing was completely revoked in all competitions iirc. He's Norway with Celtic Provinces secondary, so North.

 

News to me. It's great to be in the loop.

 

Ja-nee, I was/am CP and GB and was in the running for a start/bench slot for North last year, until I reminded you that Crib's N-S split under cricsim rules was different. I have thus never been eligible for North, nor ever played for them.

 

My memory is obviously failing me and I also believe that I'm struggling with my recall at the moment.

 

Contracts for Season 6 will open after the end of the North/South games. Season 6 will not start until every team has 30 contracted players.

Clubs will be able to contact Cnuts players to contract for them. These players will be eligible for first team action only.

 

New Romanian guy signing up gets us one step closer to a continental Europe team.

1. Samuel Vimes (Nor)
2. Vito Tigani (Ita) (Cnuts)
3. Isaac Dipper (Ger)
4. Quentin Goldenhaus (Ita) (Cnuts)
5.
6. Antone Sciappapetre (Fra) (Cnuts)
7. Milouse (Fra) (Cnuts)
8. Tiberiu-Mihai Pana (Rom)
9.
10.
11. Alan Bengio (Ita) (Cnuts)
12.
13.
14.
15.

 

Season 6 Contracts open after the final North vs. South game.

There is a contract limit of 30 per team.

Season 6 will not start until every team has 30 contracted players. Remember, you can contract Cnuts players - but these guys can only play in your first XV; they are ineligible for the reserves so they'll only provide cover generally speaking.
