Sadly I think GT could have his best 2 or 3 players out, but it would not gaurantee an easy win for my team.

Might make it closer but would not get my team an easy win

Sincerely think Redbacks should play their best snipers and CT the game against GT.

Well mate, mission impossible has been achieved. A 10 point win against GT at home and his no.1 centre goes down as well.
In this case it looked like my depth got me the win as his guys wouldn't have had much of a break.

Very happy with this win.

Great win

Whilst I encouraged you to CT them, I personally had intended to TIE on them on Tuesday (I might re think this)

Bit disapponted in the fact that your sniper didnt manage to keep the GT player out of Tuesdays upcoming game

Aaaargh, Melvin Slaughter is back in my league. I have never been able to handle him (back in my div III times) and that's no good news to see again. sniff :'(

DAS means business

Looks like he has positioned his finances well the last couple of seasons to have a really serious tilt at promoting out of Div 2.

Interesting to see what teams like the Nevado Saucers, SBV, GT & Melbourne Redbacks do in response to this acquisition.

Will they up the ante and make serious investments to give their teams a chance of promoting or shall they give up and sell a few players and concentrate on training for the rest of the season?

Interesting forum strategy from HA, or to make your franchise look like a "poor no-chance to promote" team and then splash some ca$h at the end of the season in order to be the strongest? :P

If I've understand your post correctly I think that there is an inference that HA might be planning to splash cash at the end of this season to promote and in the interim is distracting attention from himself by highlighting the strengths of other teams in this league.

If this summation of your post is correct, then let me assure you that your hypothesis is flawed in that HA started his season in Div 2.III with a negative bank account

To make matters better for you all, HA blew near on $400,000 K in scouting last ABBL season and ended up sacking all 3 of his draft picks

Aye, I apologize if it's a little bit hard to understand me: I'm swiss and I came downunder for a few months in order to learn english, but now I'm back to my native country and I'm not really practicing english anymore. Though I hope I'm still understandable!

Well sorry to hear that the draft wasn't good in ABBL last season. However I still regard you as a powerhouse in our league. And "distracting attention" were exactly the words I was looking for ;)

Your team features good players and a very good balance of offense / defense. You also have some ABBL experience. I would certainly not be surprised if you made the finals this season.

Some good matches tonight.

I'm not going to be taking SVM lightly, particularly given they were finalists last season. It should be another good test for me.
HA v GT looks to be a great matchup also. HA continues to pump everyone else up but himself, yet he's currently sitting on top of the Big 8.

EGG v PNR should be could depending on what strategy EGG uses given that he usually throws in one game of "development" on almost a weekly basis (but never against me, dammit).

DA v NEV looks to be a great matchup with the debut of Melvin Slaughter for DA. Anyone willing to guess how many he'll hit in his debut.

All in all, there's some good matchups tonight. Who's going to break ahead of the pack?
Good luck to all.
