I would think its all about gelling and playing as a team. These players all have skill, and should be intelligent enough to play the game, its more if they gel really well, they can beat anyone put in front of them. Team work is Twizz and Markie C's challenge.Twizz - out of interest, do you know if any other nations have gone for the same selection style as you did by taking a couple from each team, was that the general rule ?
I see the team has been mostly picked from SPL players and three Nexus players, could be rough going up against a nations team picked from the CPL, best of luck though of course
To be Honest I did try and contact Ulrich last week by e mail, as he is in charge of the rules, to find out any thing about how many players per Team can I have on the field of play, per point, and a couple of questions, by no reply, so just in case we get there and they tell me 'you can only have 2 players per team on the field of play'Twizz - out of interest, do you know if any other nations have gone for the same selection style as you did by taking a couple from each team, was that the general rule ?

No, I agree that it has been under-publicised, about the only thing MS have pushed this year was the Longchamps venue. As for everything else, they seem to think the 'Mushroom Culture' is the way forward. FFS, they didn't even announce that the Bitburg event had moved from the airfield back to the sports fields until the Saturday of the event! However, that press release was eagerly awaited as it was the confirmation of the event dates and venues, I guess everybody stopped reading it there!Pete [Onasilverbike], are you suggesting that one-off Press release in January can be deemed as a satisfactory and timely notice for what was to come in June???
Twizz, I wouldn't have worried on that one, the Ladies Cup was pretty much played by complete teams wearing a national Jersey, there are a few countries on that list that don't have enough teams in the MS to be able to draw from to comply.To be Honest I did try and contact Ulrich last week by e mail, as he is in charge of the rules, to find out any thing about how many players per Team can I have on the field of play, per point, and a couple of questions, by no reply, so just in case we get there and they tell me 'you can only have 2 players per team on the field of play'
So I have guessed that they will say something like that, so I just picked a few players from each team a that I know off.
Nxt year we will put something else in to place about looking for other players from all over the UK!!!!!!!!!!!
But I am VERY HAPPY with the players that we have, but I know we will give it our all and.....................have a smile on our faces too!!!!!!!!!
