Other teams that I have brought players from were Godzilla Raiders, Plympton Predators, Sydney Saviours, Tuff Gong Iron Backs, Steel City Rangers (the original, not current one).

It's like a history lesson for the Oceania Region.

There is even a few Bury Us Alive and Orange Ape Mentals in there also.

Who else has got somthing from way back? From an old long forgetten team? Etc?

Never knew Kai Harbar came from Kamikaze. And I remember Battlemoths belting me in II.3.Last edited on 2013-11-15 at 12:13

For a while, you were sort of the Aussie hoover, in that you bidded on nearly any Australian player who even looked like he had a sniff of potential. The sweeper so to speak.

I cannot believe it took me until 16.07.2012 (more than an an actual YEAR of active transfer activity) to buy my first Australian player. He was a dud, and purely a speculative buy (but had great other assets outside his talent). The market being what it is when it comes to speculatively buying high intel/cons bought him off me and I consequently saw him float through quite a few teams after.

In fact, since then, I have bought a total of only 3 more Australian players. One was Mason Lucas to fire him to ensure he didn't retire for the NT, one was Garrick Johnson who was from the Tuff Gongs and is my starting OT, and one was a guy named Bryce Patton. A 4.5* talent with yellow speed and 19 strength who is becoming an OL. The most hilarious things about Bryce is, he's actually a former youthpull of mine that I saw for sale much later at a low price. I knew his speed was capped when I sold him, but when I rediscovered him, I noticed his new team had taken strength up to 19. Unadvertised, and with me already knowing his talent, I picked him back up for $1k.


Long story short, out of the many buys I've had over the seasons, only four of them were Australians. One was a temporary thing for the NT, one was rubbish, one was my own youthpull, and finally, the last guy who actually improved my team. I did buy a Spanish player from the Steel City Panthers long before that though.


As for famous teams, I helped empty former NA Top Div team the Minnesota Xtreme. All of his players had decent physicals, and I picked up a 5* talent and 2 x 4.5* talents from him (one of which is still on my team, and another I sold this offseason). I also bought the last ever player sold by the original Sparta Nijkerk team. His massive firesale had already concluded a while before, but I was observant enough to notice him selling a brand new 4.5* talent youth pull before he went bot. His physicals were something like 8/8 to start though, and at least one of them capped pretty low before I sold him on. He's still around though and on a pretty well known user's team (though he hasn't had his bpos maxed or a high salary), so maybe I pulled the trigger too soon.

...this is why you're broke all the time!

But, thanks for creating a rockstar kicker for the NT. He's still being handballed around random teams at the moment though. Just need to find him a nice home in a club planning on quitting. A nice bot team to pay his ridiculous salary and ensure he doesn't retire prematurely.

Speaking of, I think I'll have to send a PM to the team that just won his auction. Yet another fresh team...

Holy crap! I sold Mason Whitecross once. I don't see him in the brought list. So he must have been a youth pull. Why'd I do that?

Brodie Small, 19yo, 4* TAL from Michigan State Spartans for $16k - presently 20/19 Spd/STR, still training STR. 15 CON, 8 INT - future WR/TE (15/7/2013)

Ryan Hooper, 24yo 5* OL from Mammoth for $500k. STR capped at 18 but hoping that training STAM from 11 will bump it to 19 at least. 15 CON. (14/10/2013)

Rhyce O'Meally, 19yo, 4* TAL from The Winners. Spd capped @ 15, STR uncapped @ 12. 18 CON, 10 INT. (16/6/2013)
