Who's taking the 3.12 championship this season? I don't know enough of the teams, so I'll withhold my judgement for a few weeks...

As with the way this game goes, if the guy with the cash wants too...he wins... who has the most cash? you.

I guess it comes down to your plans for the season. sit and train or win and promote.

I was in the Semis last season and Tilley was in Quarters, the other 2 guys that are left from last year Harey and Hansbroughs both had late season charges, however, Mangoes promoted and Many Men was up there and then went Bot, everyone else is either brand new or promoted in.

Should make it interesting, and should be plenty of how to questions raised here on the forum.

Agreed. Cash is the key but spend it all and fail to promote and you'll need a season to recover. I think this happened to hippos a few seasons back. Or if 2-3 teams decide to spend up then it can get ugly like a div 3 league a few seasons ago when 3-4 teams had weekly wage bills of 350k plus.

Most of the recent promotees have all run it a similar way. Finish on top by doing just enough then spend some cash on 2 bigs and rely on HCA for the victory and promotion.

Seems to me like it's too hard to compete every year and then promote aka be high. Need 1-2 seasons of tanking to build a slush fund.

Others might have a different opinion though.

Precisely what happened to me. I just missed out on the abbl... oh well..

It's difficult to do if you want to be "strong" all the time. Tanking is the best option.

i have bigger merch than that will see how much i get start of this season though. Plus even with prices down ill be looking at around

Ill be looking at 280k came receipts and that isnt a packed out stadium and after all star break my prices will go up.
85k tv rights
thats 365k there which covers salary then my merch which is about 55k
plus im aiming to make final 16 cup so thats 50k each week

staff is 16k
no scouting
salaries currently 320k

so 415-336 = 79k without cup
465k-336= 129k with cup
