Haha, yeah, that must have been it. A perfect 7-0 record in the group stage and then a win in round of 32 before being knocked out in the round of 16 of the BBM1 must have been upsetting to some.
Good news is I've had 5 balls in the "performed well last season" since the start of this season, so thankfully they're over it by now.
Thanks for the congratulations everyone, on to the new season!
