2 home games left, looking forward to the money at the end of the season.

Top 3 are set in the great 8, a couple of teams fighting for the 4th and final playoff spot.

Top spot is the only set one in the big 8, but positions 2-4 are being fought between 4 teams now, should be a good run home for the big 8.

Any thoughts on MVP this season?

yes, all very exciting! lots of cagey tactics and managing of minutes. The fight for the final playoff spots should be a cracker...

as for MVP - maybe Carrington? McNamara? Berdomas? they always poll well. my man Polgalse won it last season, but this year hasn't been quite the same player.

Title is very open, but i still think you are the one to beat Holtz, but look forward to see how you will deflect this attention!

I think next season will be even tighter than this one given the way teams are positioning themselves roster-wise.

The interesting thing is that there are 5 teams going up to the ABBL next season as coolcats went bot. Will be interesting to see where the 5th team comes from.

Looking at the stats for the game between Razzle and Downunder Thunder, Downunder is getting some very impressive ratings now, across the board.

But there is always the chance for an upset in the first rounds in the playoffs.

What is the highest your enthusiasm can get too, does anyone know?

i think it can go up to 14 with CUP games
and 12 without cup games.

anyways my predictions still remain the same, DT and meteors are still the teams to beat.

Nah, only 4 teams. CoolCats will be relegated, he forfeits every game and is in relegation territory, so he will automatically lose the playoffs.

Well this is How I see the tables come playoff time.
BIG 8.......................GREAT 8
Koops...................... Meateors
Downunder................Crocs
Razzle......................Slammers
Goldfish....................Cowboys


With the big 8 top 2 are easy, Razzle having a game against Bricklayers gives them a certain win and 3rd with it. Goldfish only need to win 1 against Rat or the Knights, which I think they can do, despite the danger in both those teams. In the first round of playoffs Koops will beat Goldfish and Downunder will beat Razzle. Leaving Koops and Downunder to work out who will represent the BIG 8 in the final series. I think the winner of the BIG 8 can win the whole thing.

GREAT 8 is very similar, Meateors and Crocs are easy, and Slammers will take 3rd spot. I think Cowboys will take 4th in the end with a better pts margin than Aussie. They will finish in the same points, I think Aussie will find it hard to win another game this season, where Cowboys will won one more game. With that win will come the points needed to take 4th. Once their the Crocs and I will go into the GREAT 8 Playoffs, and recent history tells me I have the edge over the Crocs.

For the league I think Koops will represent the BIG 8 (not sure why, but giving them the spot due to ladder position) and I will represent the GREAT 8. Hoping I have home court advantage and get the chance to have another shot in the ABBL, then I will probably see you guys again the season after that.

wow, put it out there Holtz! I don't know whether to be offended or agree.
I'll stick with agree.

Crocs only just beat me in the playoffs last year and my SG was injured after 6 min (i clearly haven't forgotten or recovered). But he is a tactical master and has the NT PG, so I don't expect to win, but it will be closer than many think.

I think DT or Razzle will be the Big 8 finalist, not Koops (sorry Koops, noting personal).

as for who goes down...that is anyone's guess!

great work on the predictions and i hope you will be right although there is still a lot of movement left at the bottom

dt is a crazy team and when they actually start trying in the playoffs i dont see anyone beating him in the big8

in the great 8 the top 3 are really strong but dahm, the meateors and in a different league

so gf should be meateors beating dt

~*~

the coolcats news is big in a different way

every season each d2 gets a relegated abbl team that kicks butt, not season 15

coolcats will drop to div 4 and an extra div 3 team (best record that didn't win) will promote

so one lucky d2 will get 5 new d3 teams while the rest get 4 d3 and 1 abbl

ohh is that how it is huh Greeno, im very cut by those comments.. next season dont expect any easy games from me, im gonna CT everytime i play you.. your in the black book =P

but the truth does hurt and im afraid, as i predicted, it will be a DT vs meteors grand finals.. unless razzle dazzle can prove us all wrong!! hehehe

*crosses fingers* that Berdomas, jimenez llanes and schinkels all slip on a banana peel.
