Fantastic work Brooksy and well done on another great season building on the work of Whitebeard, Direwolf and the other NT managers.

I guess there are some difficult decisions to be made on the older players.

Whilst they might be okay at the start of next season, by the time the business end of the season comes around they may have dropped 3 or 4 skill pops.

You dont want to be trying to bring in 4 replacements for them during the season

Perhaps have a word to a couple of the Managers of these legends and see if they would be interested in getting "career extension" trainers.

Even then Id at a maximum Id only have 1 or 2 players in that squad at the age of 33yo or older and they would have to be managed by Managers who you could be sure would look after their game shapes and also have the career extension trainers.

Also congrats not only in taking Australia to the World Cup but also portraying yourself with great dignity in some quite difficult circumstances at the start of the season.

I hope that you can work towards leaving a legacy in place such as Iwen and Whitebeard have done.

I believe the real worth of a National coach whether it be U21s or the seniors, is not how the team performs during your reign, but instead the work that is done setting the team up for the following 3 or 4 seasons

Anyone with 32 or 33 year old players should have this in place already. I've had one for the last 3 seasons.

Also congrats not only in taking Australia to the World Cup but also portraying yourself with great dignity in some quite difficult circumstances at the start of the season.

Excellent choice of words. Grats again Brooksy.

The national teams have a few changes this coming season with Thad Hadley being selected I to the squad, West Indies has trained him great and he is a good PG that will help push the national te further next season and beyond. Lucas frost of the goldfish will also be added.

While we will say good bye to some national team greats and legends. That I'm sure would be in the hall of fame if we had one. National Team caps holder Jackson Mansfield has hanged up his shoes saying he's just to old to run up and down the court at national level but will always be ready for a recall If necessary. Sun cumming another of koops boys will be retiring from duties to focus on sinning koops and abbl title that's if he doesn't get traded away for Jala.

Another household name in McArthur, will be sitting out the season unless he is called upon due to players bad gameshapes. While after a season of bad gameshape Weiping has been dropped and it will come down to the new owner if he keeps him in good game shape will get a recall.

I've sent coaches of there respective players messages thanking them for the season

Great work and I notice that you have been hard at work scouting, it takes a lot of effort but is well worth it. Well done.

Thanks.

For all those interested ill be updating the current team and there skills on the offsite forum on Thursday. Ill post here again once it's done.

I'd like to say congrats to mickyster on being selected the junior team national coach. Hopefully we can work together to mild U21 stars into future NT stars. Our nation future in big man stocks are looking good. As are some if our guards the SFs are still about a full season away before becoming worth while.

Yeah the big man situation looks great atm. We need a few more guards though incase of injuries or gameshape issues.
