Are there any MVP + guys on teams likely to go bot? Might be worth adding them even if they get no training for half a season.

Not unhappy with our performance against Australia, but GEEZ did they have a big last quarter.
Easier games coming up - tho' nothing "easy" per se.
Iran (#35) - wins against Pakistan & Kazakhstan. Big center... I'd guess strong primaries.
Indonesia (#41) - a win against Pakistan -- good side, some very strong players.
Pakistan (#96) - losses to Iran/Indonesia. Not so strong... we should win this one.
Kazakhstan (#79) - losses to Australia/Iran. Not a bad team, but it's one that's within our capabilities.

My goal's to try and sneak a victory in within the next two matches. Try and finish 3-3. That'd be a good finish for us (and performing better than expected). Beyond that would be gravy.

Who is the world's most expensive U21?

No win but I think the team did really well.

Sigh... losses to Iran and Indonesia - not totally unexpected, but I did have hopes. Tied game after 3Q, and then outscored by 5.

I'm quietly confident about the next two games - Kazakhstan with the surprise walkover win over China has me thinking that something is fishy there about where they want to finish (I hate that kinda stuff), and next up Pakistan.

Keep those pops coming, and GS in order!!

Well... crap.

I missed a scrimmage opportunity through not paying attention (or close enough attention) to the game dates.
Ugh... I'm sorry all.

And that's that. We won the games we should have won, and lost those we should have lost.
Unfortunately, the gap between those two groups remained a little too large for us *this* season, and we'll finish just outside of the four.

Some good players sticking around for next season. We could have a pretty good team. Work those pops, guys!

Yessir.

But honestly, this was not our season. Our draw was always a little beyond us - even the most likely to win of the losses (Indonesia) where ranked nearly 40 places above us. I'm hopeful that the next season should be a little better...
