A very good
5ยบ place in the final NT race to Siena. Well done, ophiuko.
So, a good finish of this "in-between-season", with even a not suited calendar.
About next season ; so far still 0 candidates.
No problem to me if I will be (automatically) the NT manager of next season.
So, if there are still no candidates on the last day of this season, I will be a candidate and I will try to win the elections.
But next season can be a great opportunity, and it is almost 100% sure Australia has a much better prospect than this season.
Of course, also a bit depending on the s17 NT calendar.
So my advice to every Australian manager = think about it / consider to be a candidate.
And for sure including ophiuko, because despite this was (as expected) not a great NT season to Australia,
I'm impressed by the amazing job ophiuko did as Australian NT manager, including lists and previews.
My vote goes to you if you want to do the job again, ophiuko, and next season will be better = more fun.
But no pressure at all on anyone ; if you are not in the mood, or you don't have the time, or any other reason why not ; no problem,
also next season Australia will have a good NT manager, just like in
all previous NT seasons.
And we even have some very good managers Down Under who never were the NT manager. Season 17 will be perfect for a debut.
