Yep, I absolutely do and I see no reason to be ashamed of it. I have never listed an 18 yo player of mine at that time of the season but I do not blame people who take advantage. That's the nature of competitiveness.

I believe most managers don't even take this "opportunity" into account when listing their players, they probably just want to sell them early to get fresh funds for the new draftees. As to the "tricking" part - no-one's forcing anyone to buy, it's actually quite simple to make sure of the age of the player in a number of ways before you bid.

Yet, I do recognize the issue and how it could be troublesome, especially for not so experienced managers and I actually suggested possible solutions.

Cheers

It's all good, no worries.

We share the same disposition after all - addressing this will be good for BB as a whole.

or put an additional layer of label notifying that the player is a new arrival which will last until the Season Update or the existing Players in-game grew old

My preference would be something like this on the TL search and then maybe a logo on the corner of the player image on the players page, like the ones a player has when he is on U21 or NT. Simple and noticeable.

Surely when you purchase a player in this GAME it's a simple case of buyer beware? Not everyone who lists a young player at that time is trying to rip anyone off - I'll take you on your word that some do, but fair dinkum, it's not a hard thing to check. I think the game has bigger issues for the GMs to work on.

I'm sorry but this isn't really a problem. Just check the DMI. Rookies have 0 DMI. The real problem BB is going to run into is tanking for BBM glory. I have a team in my league who is in Tier 6, he tanked from the mid-season news and now he just added 3 players and spent big money. Why not lock line-ups for BBM the Sunday before it starts. Players bought after can be used in league games but not BBM games.

I thought we were talking about loopholes here. A lot of suggestions before mine.

how couldn't you notice the player played all those matches in season 53? how could a 18yo player play all those game?

i can imagine your frustration....but if you offer 1.8 million, please spend 30 seconds to give a detailed look at the guy
