Well I am out. This makes three teams in a row that have put in more effort than me. But that wasn't the reason that I lost. Sure Kurvits hadn't committed a single foul for the seaon until tonight and never fouled out at all last season but tonight decided for the one time in his entire life to go on a foul rampage and foul out in 29 minutes. Sure that was totally out of the blue and unexpected. But there is a curse on my team and his name is Sy Nguyên. Since he has arived everthing has gone wrong. I was so happy after spending $20k a week every single season and always getting total rubbish in the draft to finally get a great player who I could train amd make a star on my team. But no. This moron fouls out almost every game and tonight was no different. Hard enough to compete in the ABBL but training an 18 year old is brutal. Training one that fouls out every game is just pathetic and impossible. Enough is enough, Sy Nguyên you officially suck and you are no longer welcome on the Seagulls. If anyone wants a total loser on their team they can have him for $1.

im also out. 3 point game with just over 17 seconds to go. the boys couldnt quite come away with the win.

nice close game though - i do take issue with the shot at 1:09 in the 4th quarter -

"Wallace tries to bank one in from the wing"
have a look at the shot chart. Its like, on the baseline. rigged i say, rigged. stupid ref's didnt call it off the top of the backboard! haha.
sad to be out of the cup so early. ill have to sell my $200k SG now. :(

sums up the day really. Had to go back to work after Xmas, lost to Sid, and then had to pretend to be a pirate in order for my daughter to eat her dinner.

I've copped a bot for round 2. Good to see some luck in the draw after the last few seasons. Hopefully can match and maybe better my top 16 from 4 seasons ago.
knock on wood

You certainly had me worried right until the end.

108 K Riviera hits 43 points v the 204 K Eren hitting 17 points.

I expected you to have a dash at me but gees you gave it everything and in the end I was very lucky to win

On paper, my next tournament game is an exciting one with two U21 NT players, Cicvaric and Risley, set to do battle... but RabidCamel royally screwed up his gameshape this week, and I'm planning on sitting my guy Cicvaric as he will have played his quota of minutes for the week in the two league games. So, I'm expecting a fairly lack-lustre clash that will most likely result in my team getting the win. A favourable draw could see me go deep into the cup, and such a draw is quite possible for any one of us considering the number of bots and 'meh' teams that will still be hanging around come round three...

my starting 5 weekly minutes from last week.

Farrugia - 86
Eren - 106
Stern - 75
Groppo - 109
Demaqi - 105

my point being - never assume because he has played both his league games, that he wont cop the game shape hit the following week to keep going during the cup.
