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.

Look my team proved tonight in their comprehensive loss to GT that they are a bit off the pace.

However if you all choose to believe otherwise please continue to do so.

I am quite happy if you all sell up your best players and play your second best line up and TIE against my team, all because you know that you cant win against them or promote when my ex ABBL team is in the league

Who am I to argue against this logic

Dont let me interfere if you all wish to tank the season

lol

I'm just stirring anyway mate. I'm pretty happy with the effort of my boys today. Managed to do some out of position training for two of my boys (trakys and stevens) and still come away with a win away from home (just).

Lara Giants with another walkover is starting to get concerning. That's about 7 or 8 walkovers now, tracking back to last season.

lol - I was stirring the stirrer.

Having said that based on the last two games your team is 31 points better than mine

lol touche

But how do you figure the 31 points when you've got a PD of 54 v 5 for me.

That game of EGG where i TIE is coming back to bite me though. Could be sitting on 4-0.

Simple mathes

Redbacks beats GT by 10 points
GT beats HA y 21 points

Therefore Redbacks have comprehensively proven to be a 31 point team than HA

You should be able to play your second team against HA and TIE and still win based on those figures.

Better yet give up and sell all your players, because as was eluded to by ezlife, HA is good .

Happy for you to employ either of the these two strategies

lol if only that method actually worked, i would feel much more comfortable.

So many variables that aren't factored into all that, like GT's best player going down in the 2nd Q against me, but playing for the entire game against HA.
Not to mention strategy, effort level, stamina levels etc etc etc

However, the TIE approach when playing HA does appear attractive given it's likely a walk over anyway lol.

I agree

Interesting to see what a real conteder like DAS does now

Going to be hard for him to support his expensive roster with a tiny stadium and no cup income

Speaking of no income from the cup, I've just seen the draw for my teams next cup game

Double Bugger what a horror draw for HA

Makes matters worse is that the upcoming opponents 2 league games previous to playing HA are against a soon to be bot and what appears to be a tanker
