    Hi all

    has anybody made any good youth pulls lately?

    I heard that there was a change to the youth training (making it more effective)... but didnt believe it until i pulled a player today.


    he was 25 stars and 19 years old, & had 144 youth games -when he came out at 45k CSR :eek:

    hes better than the lad i spent all last season on 10 individual sessions (albeit only just and a year older)

    so my question is has anybody else had a good youth pull or is this guy just amazing!

    Pulled a monster yesterday who just turned 17 on the weekend, 37k csr ! gonna be a beast when i train him

    By all accounts the increased ya effectiveness has had a big effect.

    I would say it might be overdone, I didn't have any couches before but am now advertising for lvl 2's and will be trying for lvl 3 couch and facilities asap.

    Although knowing my luck they'll nerf the effectiveness back down just after I have it set up :(

    Yeah I have a feeling they are going to nerf it. Some of the pulls coming out at the moment are absolutely ridiculous.

    Yup, the academies were epic this past year. I suspect we might only have another half season of this or so.

    Sigh, Had a 199cm 126kg player earmarked as an 8 to replace with 100 star recruit. 100 stars and he is 203 and weighs 97. I already have two young locks. Sigh

    pulled another monster today

    http://www.blackoutrugby.com/game/club.squad.php#player=11900492

    Hes come out at44K CSR.


    i reckon they;ve overcooked the youth academy 'tweak' and we might see some huge players for the next U20 s20 world cup



    only problem is I used 80 stars hoping for a lock and got somebody 199cm :(

    guess he'll be an no 6 then

    Pulled crap today... but he was scouted at 10stars so not unexpected!

    Was supposed to be pulling back row, but looks like he will be a back of some sort with height and weight stats. better not be rubbish after spending 150 stars! :D

    Not happy with my two pulls. Looks like they will be back rows, the one position I am sorted for :mad:

    I have lvl2, just checked. clearly forgot to go any higher. wonder how big the jump is from lvl 2 to 3, and is that the difference we are seeing? or are our academies just full of ****e seanand!!??:eek:


  • Registered Users Posts: 850 ✭✭✭seanand


    i dont know maybe thats it but i cant afford to make the jump because im looking at lvl5s but if they keep coming out sh*t ill be getting rid of training altogether
