I love secondaries as much as anyone, but the fact is they need primaries too, and international competitions are still dominated by big men with amazing primaries. In the NT this gap is a lot smaller but for U21, trip sensational against Chinese big men with trip prodigious is just too much to handle.

and you think three seasons of primaries and one of secondaries isn't enough?

no-one has the steroids and blood doping like the chinese have so there is no point in comparing

they have 1000 farm teams with level 7 trainers whose only job is to train players for their nt, they train other guys too so they can sell them and buy the best chinese prospects and we got lucky this time when jone bogan ended up on one of those teams

those guys get 48+ single pos every week from age 18 even in asw and offseason cause the teams dont care about winning or anything but training

then their u21 team has like 40 x max stat players with minor differences to choose from, remember the team they had rostered earlier this season with all those $120-$180,000 21 year olds? they even have multiple 70k + u21 guards. and dont worry there is row after row of clones coming every year so there is no point even thinking about the chinese team, they are playing a different game, their u21 team could probably give our senior team a good match

No, I think it's fine.

I think he needs to focus on primaries first. We have enough players focusing on secondaries that our primary skills end up lacking.

I have my reasons for this.

One think we all agree on, this season just smash ID and IS in single popsition training with at least 48+ minutes a week and at least a level 4 trainer. In weeks with just two games you can do rebounding. By the end of the season you will already pe in possession of a skilled player who can lead you to victory in division IV.

This guy is a monster... if you don't train him, you'd be wasting a great Australian prospect. Don't do a full year of secondaries btw, just do like up to the ASG in secondaries, or maybe another week or two after that. It's better to have higher primaries going in because it will be easier to train secondaries when he's 21 and already on the team, then it will be to train primaries then.

False. Secondaries will pop faster when they're young and if you train the primaries first and then train secondaries, his salary could become hard to support if he's in the IV.

Listen to the GM with 292 balls (uncomfortable) and me, not the random with 3.

You are in division IV, it is easy to promote, I did it in my first season and didn't lose a single match for the entire season even though I had no idea what I was doing and didn't have 1/100 of the mentoring available to you.

I have a level 6 trainer and I can 100% understand you wanting a level 5 as soon as possible, but trust me, they are a bit overrated. The difference between level 4 and 5 is around 5% at most, so after 20 pops you would be one better off. Just managing minutes so he gets 48+ every week and does single position training is much more important.

Obviously we all have different aims but I won division IV in my first season and then won division III in my second. Whatever you decide to do you must not neglect your arena and the rest of your team.
