Assunto: I.1

Thnk SILVER SENTINELS nice wery gud matchup playoff meyby leeter next seson

Well played Dudina ! Terrifically close games - Your PF/C's are very difficult to play against. Best wishes and again, very well played.

Tbh, I thought I was in real trouble after game 1. I couldn't get any of my guys to make points from Medium to outside. I remembered that last season I ran an inside set up and well... I thought, 'oh hell.. Let's see if Tommy and the gang can pull it off against a very accomplished inside outfit. Fire vs Fire, so to speak and it was a coin flip. So close. Great playoff's. Take heart Lopini, your team is well set-up and I would say a tough match-up for anyone. It was our time today, I'm sure you will be a lot stronger nest season. Best Wishes, Nigel

Well played Hearts, a well-deserved series win - my tactical gamble tonight backfired spectacularly, it was worth a shot though.

Thinking about next season now... I feel a bit of a fire sale coming on, time to let the young guns earn their stripes I think.

Good luck to those who are still in it, I'm looking forward to seeing the outcome of the Fodder/Jays series tomorrow.

So ladies and gents, your last four are: Mavericks, Jays, Sentinels and Hearts.

Anyone could take the crown, but I reckon my money is on the Mavericks. Who would you tip to be I.1 champion this season?

Well played Hearts and best wishes for the final. Best regards, Nige

What do you guys know about height growth - have all your 18 year olds continued to grow until now at the same pace?

My two 18 year olds have both grown 1cm more than I expected this season, however I haven't had time to go through the numbers and figure out how/when it happened yet. How about you?

Unfortunately I cut my only 18 year old. I have many 17 year olds though. I have read elsewhere players might grow until the same day they are pulled in their 18 th year. In other words 210 days of growth.
This is not how I interpret the manual. I am guessing players stop randomly during 18th year. Which means upto 280 days depending on when the player was pulled. Your experience could disprove the first stricter interpretation.
I have also read players could grow more slowly after 18 but I don't know if this source has any evidence for this.
Interested in your views. ..

If players grow in their 19 th year that would make things very interesting.

The first bit is not true, I got lucky and still have my first SA pick pulled in the first week of July - he's grown three or four times this season including a week or so ago, so way past the anniversary of when he arrived.
Surely they won't keep growing at 19 will they? That would really mess things up (and defy the laws of physics for most people)

so your experience suggests random length of growth in 18th year. have any stopped growing early on?

No, both have continued in line with previous growth or possibly grown more than I expected... But I only have two 18yos, its not a representative sample...

Good game tonight btw - looking forward to the rest of the series

Congrats to our champions this season, the Dallas Mavericks, and also to very worthy runners-up Hearts.

Lower down the final rankings, the rest of us are still battling it out in the Fodder/Lopini and Seagulls/Dragons matchups, as predicted some really close games this post-season.
