No need to get it out. Nothing of any note to respond to for my part.

I entertained the idea of buying Grierson or whatever the name was, but then someone bid 4.4m and frankly better big men have gone for less these days. Never fails to amaze me how people overpay for English players. Maybe they see us as a micronation. Also paying 4m+ for 200k+ salary players is madness.

yeah one guy clearly wanted him. But to be fair, he's pretty much guaranteed an NT spot

How many players do we have that are actually NT calibre? What about the next generation as it were? Are there enough players coming through in all positions?

Maybe Vecx can try to do some kind of depth chart as he used to do in the past (I think). We're not a big BB nation, so the pool of 24+ year old players must be reasonably limited. It will require some effort after the election is over.

it was more that the auction ended at 4am and the guy just overpaid so that he didn't have to show up at the time.

Top quality, 8, of which 2 are bigs. Good NT players, probably another 5. Then when you look at ages, you'll see the team is not an old team, we have some good 25-29 year olds of whom if we assume they will still be trained, it bodes well for the next few seasons.

I've got my own chart, you are correct that we are not a big nation. This makes us much more dependent on the good players we have being in great shape and being consistently trained, even as they age. aiming for 130+ tsp should be the goal of any HoF player.
