Congrats to you Hadders you beat me TIE, stuffing up my next home crowd and game shapes in the process.

The better balanced team won, well done

Probably a few people who might think the loss was Karma

I guess there is always next season for me

Calculation - correct me if im wrong.

2 x Linares Weekly salary - $434,000
Sale Profit (Approx) + $30,000
Cup Winnings + $60,000

Total net loss on Linaries = $340,000
Is that about right?

I only paid the one weeks salary on Linares .

Must admit selling him sort of made up for losing to Hadders.

Profit after tax was $21,040.

Agreed, bringing in rentals should never be a successful strategy. Enforcing a minimum contract period of e.g. 8 weeks would be a much better way of discouraging this strategy.

bah ur right! I suck. i was looking at staff at the same time as writing your post and got it in my head that when you sell someone, you have to pay one weeks salary as a 'transfer fee'.

but thats only with staff. so yes, correction - one weeks salary.

Top effort to be one of only 3 teams from this league and the Big 8 left in the cup.

Two games in the cup next week and after the first game it is likely that seven of the eight remaining teams will be from ABBL, it is unlikely that any of us 3 remaining teams will be making the final 4

Both of the beasts I brought in for the Team Akuma game are now gone and luckily after taxes I made small profits on each that helped ease the financial cost of their salaries for the week that they were on my roster

The dynamics of the competition will change after this week as it is likely that no Div 2 teams will be left in the cup after this coming Thursday.

By the end of the season I expect to sell off 3 fringe players and if the right players come on the market I just might buy another 2 starters and sell off 2 of my existing starters

In recent seasons the Big 8 has won more of the cross over games than the Great 8 only to lose the Allstars game.

This season the Great 8 has 8 more wins than the Big 8, could this be an omen that the Big 8 will win the Allstars game?

The Mangoloids have made an interesting play which I suggest might indicate their desire to promote.

Obviously they are a threat given their position on the ladder with a relatively cheap roster but now they have placed Taua Kemp (25989920) their Under 21 Australian representative on the market, assumably to get a decent size war chest ready for finals time

Okay he is unlikely to see for 2.5 mill but it is interesting to check out his skills

You will probably notice that I have 3 of my better players up for sale.

There is a short profile on each player in the "Bid up you buggars" thread in the Wombat Federation.

Why the sale of such important players?

Perhaps Im just thinking about taking it easy for a while and focusing on collecting achievement points
