S27 Discussion

Lost 200k today, don't know how some of you guys do it, no YA or even training facilities I guess.

Yep I lost $202k

Won 200-0 against a bot. Not bad considering some of the dross in my lineup.

OMG Yfronts is in NZ!

I guess he really wants that #1 world ranking. There is no better place to get it than in NZ tbh.

Oh dear....there goes the national cup...no one will be able to compete against him especially whilst in div 3...will be at perfect energy throughout

Guten Tag, I've just got off the plane. No-one understands me though so I'm working on my pronunciation!

welcome razor...i think

Welcome razor.

Thanks for the welcome gents! Already looking forward to smashing the poms at the end of the season!

League kicks off today. Good luck to everyone. I have Matt's - Excelsior, always a touch assignment in The Manawatu, turbo country.

Let's do it!

Sparker's far too active, looking at my shit line-up so he knows to go WNWIM

I could be wrong, but it looks like my first guy (The Gropers (Rynoid)) is coming after me! The guy's got balls, respect!

Just looks like a normal to me, inactive manager most likely.

Your stars :O

Nope, he was on this morning (NZ time). Stars are the same as their first league LTNT last season on same CSR more or less where they went after the top of the league team. Stars are nice for a WNWIM. Put out the first team just to show my hand.

Oh we shall see then.

Sad to see his CSR is about the same a whole season later. Not going to get near Div II that way.

Strange team. Should have a lot of money in the bank, started 1 RL year after me. Keeping 30 players, stadium at ~15k, but training 1 player, looks to be an U20 TH, with the rest spread out. Definitely should have enough money to push up to at least the second division.

Haha the WNWIM razor.

In Div 1 Chewy got squeezed out by Excelsior, but the bigger upset was newcomers Ulysses Riders (on normal) edging Falcons who went with the wnwim.

Which begs the question - is this the end of the road for the Millennium Falcons? The road in this case being the playoffs. There is a long way to go of course.

Great win from the Riders.

I dk about end of the road, who knows what he may be planning, but look at that front row!

Haha, major thicko error there. Shows how much regard I give to stars!

Gotta look at this though:

My game (them on WNWIM and 108%, starting CSR ~145):-
Scrum - 7,5
Lineout - 8,5
Ruck - 5,5
Maul - 6,5
Stamina - 7,5
Attack - 7,5
Defence - 7,5
Handling - 7,5
Kicking - 6
P&G - 7
Driving - 6,5
Exp - 6,5
Creative - 6,5


Their 2nd league game last season (them on LTNT and 106%, starting CSR ~140):-
Scrum - 8 (+0,5)
Lineout - 9 (+0,5)
Ruck - 6 (+0,5)
Maul - 7 (+0,5)
Stamina - 7,5 (+0,0)
Attack - 7,5 (+0,0)
Defence - 7,5 (+0,0)
Handling - 8 (+0,5)
Kicking - 6 (+0,0)
P&G - 7 (+0,0)
Driving - 6,5 (+0,0)
Exp - 6,5 (+0,0)
Creative - 6,5 (+0,0)

Okay, their game against me had a HA boost but their form last season must have been fecal. I had every reason to suspect without doing a full measure that they were at least normalling, this is why stars in BR have as much value as astrology at times.

All in all though, good first day at the new NZ office!

Haven't looked at their line-up at all but averages aren't everything. May have a much more rounded more solid team this season.

Going back down the facilities route - so splashed out to L2

Feels better, I never liked the no facilities route, but found it was an easy way to get a good squad, really fast.

Need to sell a couple of oldies rob jump on them

Phew, what a game just won after extra time, Kruizey could afford to go LTNT against my normal, he played a few youngsters which may have cost the match. He bossed the line out count, but the 2 most telling stats were turnovers 17:2 in my favour and penalties conceded 14:7 in his.

So over this forum's compatibility with chrome o my iPhone.

Works on safari fine, but just keeps on asking for login on chrome. Enough to almost turn me awayz
