It's coming back.

I had my reasons for removing it in the first place, and those have been justified. Now there's a very good reason to bring it back..

I have gone through every single draft pick from every league in Australia so far, and WOW it is BAD.

Since I've been looking at buying 2 HOF PG/SGs to train, I only found 1 that was worthy of anything at the moment.

Hopefully I missed something and Buzzerbeaterstats is online against soon..

Same here. I have seen your bids and I am interested in one too - I would have thought he was below your standard actually. Very few decent Aussies in this draft but have a look at the II.1 draft there are two great guys there maybe the teams will sell with a little persuasion. This could be an issue for the team in a few seasons time. What plans would you put in place to prevent this potential problem?

i have the same queries as leeroy. the off-site forum is very inactive, especially the U21 bit.

wouldnt mind seeing that kick off again

The crop of players I inherited were very half baked and I wasn't too happy with them.

Too many cooks spoil the soup...

So I took over the individual mentoring of a lot of players and they ended up making the squad.

I will be brining it back and looking to get more active on the offsite forum, especially in preparation for when I step down after my 2nd term, someone who has contributed a lot on the offsite forum will do well when they get the job.

Perhaps working with the mentors and providing guidance and a direction would have been the answer?

More that everyone trains differently, otherwise if I need to guide mentors... I may as well do it myself.

Like I said, it's coming back. I did state during my last election I was removing it, and this time it's back. Will be run in a similar way again.

Hello friends
How are you?
Who suggested me to try to maybe join the team of coach - so probably will not happen.
I sent a message to Iwen and I offered him my help. Unfortunately, he read the message but did not return my answer so I guess he was not interested.
In any case I'll be glad to help scouting and tactical advice.
Why do I want?? That the members here welcomed me and treated with respect.
And second I see the forum is very active here and I think this could be improved by sharing the forum.
In the coming days I will list the teams that are at home with Australia, including an interesting addition we need to know later in the season.

I need to give it some thought.

We primarily use the offsite forum, and have never had someone who wasn't Australian with access.
