Looking good coach. Hopefully Monday draw will be kind to us for once. Crossing fingers it will be a 5 team group.

Its a shame there aren't more National Teams available for the World Cup...

there is plenty of teams. Personally I'd like to see more qualifying games and less finals games.

Pierce Boyle is for sale for $5M. I'd hit the buy button if I didn't have younger just as talented player coming up the ranks.

Hahahahaha. How do we keep getting these matchups?

We have Brazil and Poland. Poland are Poland, while Brazil also did quite well last cup (from memory they reached a similar stage to us). Two big teams very much in form.

Croatia with a coach we will also have to do a professional job against.




(Did you see the 5 man groups the UK and the Netherlands got? Shenanegans!)

Easiest qualifying group we've had in 5 World Cups. Still tough though.

Yeah, I noticed that.

Honestly, we've had a few really weird position changes. Our former #1 QB is now a gunner, while our future star CB is now a HB, and that's just this cycle. They still have the skills to do well in their former position of course, but it's weird to keep track of. Kai becoming a safety is another one (or was he always a safety and recently got the CB BPOS? I can't even remember). That plus already known dual position players mean we have a lot of guys who can technically play in several positions (some better than others though of course).

Anyhow, I'm setting tactics now and will obviously check for injuries tomorrow.

Kai Harbour was a CB for 5+ seasons. Bucs had 4 good CB and were short a SF. Kai was strong and he moved regular position.

A starting CB was injured in round 1, so had to move Kai to Cb for a game. He then switched back to CB. Then Back to SF the following round.

Harrison Wall is also gonna play CB shortly too. Time to use his speed and strength against outside recievers. Just a few final touches to go.

This will be pretty cool. I like his build for safety too (maybe except for intel, haha!). Will add some consistency to the NT core.

With an emerging crop, katsuben's work on Keith Raynes, + Mason Whitecross genuinely coming along really well (credit to viktor from USA, despite also turning him into a HB lol), our previous clearcut #1 CB is now slumming it on special teams (though with 15 blocking, he'll do very well there). If only all the super duper talents overseas identified in the past and present emerged like Mr. Whitecross...
