Good try tonight, Kanga. I'm thinking that game of yours was the perfect example of why I think you need more depth. Marcus was, as expected, awesome! 50+ points and 14 boards is a fantastic individual effort. To have a player do that and still lose by 20+ points highlights your lack of depth and especially your inability to stop opposing guards. I'm really not trying to be a smart arse, Kanga. On the upside, you will get wins with your current line-up against weaker teams on our side of the league but against most of the other teams you will likely struggle. All that aside, Marcus is outstanding!

hey matty. thanks mate for the info on the previous post, and also this one

basically my weekly income is now -$58K, so marcus needs to go. im gonna put a nice offer on the table and hopefully get some cash and i think start again, good think is, im in div 3, its half way through the season and things can turn around, just like st.kilda in the afl - they were gone for all money now have a look at em

you played well tonight also, definately cemented your place in the finals.

Cheers, Kanga. You're absolutely spot on with your chances this season. I was wondering how your finances were going with Marcus's salary. I had a quick look at him and the price you put him up for is dependent on a few things: Firstly, how desperately do you need cash? If it's serious enough, put him up for a Million and hope bidders go a lot higher. If you want to get the best possible price for him you could try and put him up for 1.5 mil and hope he gets taken. His GS is great and any good team with cash to burn will snap him up. You probably already know this but the best time to put him up is Ednesday night at 11pm, 12am is better to maximise the Europeans online. I usually have great success putting them up between these times. Tonight is also a good time to put him up for sale. Good luck and I look forward to seeing him sell and what you are able to purchase as a result.

Matty

Hopefully he sells for a lot, Kanga.

I did notice your injuries, Bilbo. The only good thing I can say is that at least it didn't happen in the finals. In Season 15 when I won Div IV.20 my star PF went down in the crucial grand final series. I was lucky to crawl over the line in the second game to clinch it. There is nothing worse than injuires...even more so at the pointy end of the season.

Hopefully your injuries heal faster than expected. Getting a better doctor won't hurt.

I can't promise you anything but depending on how things fall at the end of the season, who knows. If he is my first roun final game and his enthusiasm isn't high enough I may be able to do that for you! lol
My enthusiasm will be at its max but he will have HCA. If I get the tactics perfect and he doesn't then it is definately possible.

I'm surprised by a couple of things about Marcus. Firstly, I thought his secondaries would be a bit higher given his salary. Secondly, and a good thing for you, I think you've got a good chance of a top team taking him as he can still be trained! He's only 24 with MVP potential...I would doubt if he has capped in any of his big skills. A mangaer with cash can give him some additional training and still sell him for a greater amount down the track. The only real problem I can see is finding a manager (will likely be an ABBL or Div II team manager) who can afford to buy him and then train him. I was also suprised to find his transfer estimate was only $750k - 1 Mil. I still think you can sell him for $1.5 mil. Good luck.

3 players injured, Bilbo! All $10k+ players. I feel for you, mate. Hopefully that new medic gets them up and running sooner rather than later.
