Interesting anaylsis.

I had Melbourne Redbacks and Nevada Saucers picked because of their depth in roster, cash flow & reasonable sized stadiums

Glenelg Tigers certainly have cash flow and a decent sized stadium.

SJOD is interesting in that he obviously has money in the bank but at the moment his roster IMO is not all that strong.

DAS is currently losing about 100K a week by my calculations

SB Voultures finances might not be that sound, they appear to be losing money and have never bitten the bullet to expand their stadium - but certainly have experience on their side

Not sure which side of the draw is best to be on. Likes of Nevada must be laughing - TV game and rival was Lara Giants- easy win with no waste of enthusiam.

Youself tanking and Lara Giants doing whatever his doing should make it easier for teams in that side of the draw to have great enthusiam levels which should aid them in the crossover games

HA will have to choose what games to use enthusiam on and have an almost impossible cup game this week.

Fan Survey and consequently gates will take a pounding because HA can't win all of these games during the next 2 weeks.

Lara Giants could turn everytning on its ear with a spending spree.

HAs first goal is to finish his stadium which by doing so will affect his short term capabilities on entering into a spending spree.

HA will also be selling some big name players towards the end of this season if he is convinced he can't promote

Anything can happen should one Manager be lucky enough to make some good sales and purchases at the right time.

Through no fault of the Manager, injuries can cripple the best managed team at the worst time

Very good read as well! Have a ball :-)

I just have this gut feeling about nevada that they cant do it hey i cant explain it. However Ros was always a big supporter of my team when i was playing monkey in big games a couple of seasons ago so i feel very bad writing him off. Maybe he will prove me wrong!

I've stated before that I'm not a fan of his posts but that said I rate his smarts.

Has a decent stadium, a good balanced deep roster, cash flow and seems to have an understanding of the game.

Same reasons I rate Redbacks.

Glenelg Tigers have massive massive cash flow probably around the 120k per week depending on what they are spending on staff

DAS and SB Voultures are currently both losing money by my calculations

Yeah just looking at the arenas it is amazing how well SBV did making ABBL with only a 9000 seat arena. Really the only good sized arenas in the league seem to be yourself, Redbacks (agreed they are going to be ubber dangerous in a couple of seasons), myself and broometime. DAS and nevada and glenelg still arent huge arenas, they are around the level i was at before i started tanking.

Whats you goal for arena size Sid? I thinking 22k.

First stop will be 20,002

The stadium will have a breather at 19,771 seats in about 2 weeks time, to assess what its final configeration will be

Will be One of the following

17171 17071 17071
2222 2332 2442
565 555 656
44 44 33

20,002 20,002 20,202

Hurt me in the ABBL only having the 14 or so thousand seats

If I ever make it back to the ABBL I will then reassess the size and might consider going to the 22 K mark

Any theory behind 20002?? Or you just like the symmetry?

Yep I like the symmetry.

I'm a bit wierd like that

Likely scenarios for stadium are

19,991, 20,002 21,112 or 22,222

Intend to finish build for this season on 20,002 and may leave it there

Haha fair enough!

Hey Sid u seem to be active on the forums, have you ever considered getting supporter and joining the fishbowl PL? It's all Aussie teams and about 3/4 of abbl teams are in it.....

Thanks for the compliments guys, though Chumunga is closer in his analysis of my team.
After only promoting last year and working to get a solid base behind me, this year is going to be focused on continuing to train guys like trakys and stevens (weightman is nearly capped), while remaining in contention for the playoffs. You can see my strategy coming through with the losses to EGG and most recently PNR. Both times i played TIE and both times I played one of my trainees the whole 48 mins.

I'm hoping that Trakys and Stevens become two cornerstones of my team moving forward, and that the rookie Agustino can be that third key player in a cpl seasons. So I would say in 2-3 seasons i'll be in a position to hopefully promote. Hell it took me about 7 seasons to get out of III.6 once i finally put some time into this game.

That said, i'll always make moves it's going to put my team in a stronger position.

As for the favourites this season, as i said earlier in the season i think SBV would have to go in as favourite after getting pipped at the post last season.

Thanks for the thought

Main two reasons why I havent joined a private league are;

Being a Married man means I have no money

I'm "hopelessly addicted" to the game and spend too much time as it is without being in a private league as well


Plus those ABBL guys were a bit rough on me last year
