Season 16 ends with 6 Buffs players playing over 50 matches.
Highlights included:
- Main Striker Harper seemed to bug his 1on1 SA in the second half of season and ended up with 35 assists - so only 48 goals;
- Harper did however break the Club's MoM record with 21;
- MC James Morrison made a valiant attempt again at achieving a 7.50 average rating but after 51 matches he failed with 7.47;
- MC Liam Henderson matched the club record number of bookings - 10 yellows = 4 suspensions;
- 2 players averaged under 7 for the season - the GK that played every game (6.96) and an aging DC/DMC that only played in 25 matches (6.85) and was sold.
Surprisingly I managed to save some rests this season but because my final league match was not unti 10 pm today the devil found work for etc and I spent around 60 of them on Playmaker SA for my DMC/MC just to try it out. The DMC/MC performed not that bad with 6 x 6s and 8s, the rest 7s. (An injury in the second half of the Season hampered his performance.)
I think I'll increase the number of subs again to 6 - 4 was just too few and doesn't allow rest after injuries.
14 players will be carried over into the new Season - a decision will be made on whether the 3 Stooges will be retained thereafter or sold.
