It is a serious consideration.

Why you gotta be like that Micky?

For the record - we're currently running a 712k salary roster, which up until last week was below league average. Recently, a couple of teams have started selling some players which has dropped the average back to 682k, but it still leaves me in 8th place on the salary ladder - with four teams from my own conference and three from the other ahead of me. I've always tried to build my team on defence and I think that's what I was known for in II.2, however we're currently the #1 offensive team in the league, the only to be averaging over 100 ppg, leading the league in 3pt %age, and are easily leading the league for both steals and fewest turnovers committed. So things are looking pretty good, especially since I was only aiming for a 50% win record at the start of the season.

Good luck SN13 against the Wombats, hope you can knock them off! Would make the Cup run a little easier ;)

I would love you to win it. But I know the build of most his side and it is very good. I ran a 800k roster for 1/3 of last season and had trouble winning. And it was not 800k on mono skilled monsters. I do look forward to taking you on again before too long.

@Micky - I didn't want to say too much before my game against rimmers, but I had already decided to semi-tank that game as I felt I'd be stretched too thin if I'd tried to win all three games for the week. Seeing as my Cup opponent was clearly saving his NT monster big for me meant I had to hold some back if I wanted to cover against a potential CT.

That being said, I never said it was easy, or anything against your team and what you faced last season. I only started how I was happy (and if you catch my tone, a little surprised) that I'm doing well, and that I may reassess as circumstances allow. To imply that I've had it easy or that I'm only doing well because others aren't trying is disrespectful and I found it a bit insulting. As I pointed out, I've been right around the league average for salary all season, and I've been beating teams spending more than me. With the balance I now have, and with some freedom to make a planned acquisition or two, who knows how things might go?

@SN13 - ouch :S might want to get some rebounders! They got almost as many offensive boards as you did on the defensive end!

Mate I meant no disrespect. I am very pleased you are doing well. I knew you would. I'm looking forward to making it back to abbl before too long. Hope to pick up our rivalery again then. I also hope you do very well this season, which are are doing atm and with some luck (we all need it in this game) could win it all.

Good luck to all real teams in the playoffs. This season has been a disaster, bad game shape, injuries, disappointing training and poor management by me, I will have to do something radical next season to revitalise the team. I have 19 players I think probably most need to go. Too much sentiment and not enough sense. Cunningham, Eric, Ðuričko, Tammela, Fyfe and Dougan are the only ones likely to stay.

Should be a interesting season. Might have to think about what I will do next season regardless of the outcome this year.
