Ahh well..without HCA my team is screwed.

AAAAAANNNYYYWAYYYYYYY....the short version: BLAH BLAH BLAH Akuma is a sook. Well done Sid, you've pretty much got this championship in the bag unless one of the other guys make some major moves.


Mate as I said, I may have won the battle but I think you might win the war.

There is no way I will be able to maintain my current roster for long.

If you can keep your currant roster you might end up starting favourite

My desire to win tonight and to do well in the cup, may have put my team back 3 or 4 seasons

Well said akuma.

I hate it that with a few weeks left to finals some people buy up big. That also doesn't happen in real life. This is supposed to be a 'real life' simulation, no?

Like Ive said Ive probably put my team back 3 or 4 seasons by doing what Ive done and its sort of a compliment to you both that Ive had to go to such measures.

This season is incredibly open

Currently Im trying to decide what my next move will be with my squad.

The 3 players I sold were 3 of the players that gave my squad such flexibility, depth and a solid weekly profit.

My current team is not sustainable and I just might have to lose one of my 200K plus players in the next few weeks.

MJP, Cunning Linguists, Geelong Vipers, Northcote Slammers, Mangaloids, possibly Avalon Jets and both of your 2 teams are all very much in the race for promotion and it just might come down to who plays their cards best and has the most luck

Disagree - the smart thing which ur gonna do is sell off one or two of ur high paid players - thus reducing ur loses per week, regain all if not most of expended capital spent getting those big guys, and still have a team good enough to beat everyone - ur only opponent was TAK and now you've gotten that win out of the road its smooth sailing to the finals with HCA

Sure if myself, or Corio or Hadders buy up big towards the end of season, then u still have only lost maybe $200-$400k in the past few weeks, which, in the scope of ur curent bank balance, is not a big deal and so you can combat it.

uve always been in a position to do so with a high bank roll, but even so, its well played Sid from me.

and its sort of a compliment to you both that Ive had to go to such measures
- I think its interesting that u did go to such measures. I personally feel that TAK's purchases are not an attempt at promotion, but rather a personal interest set of purchases that allow him to have players on his team frmo his old set of friends. So it may have been a false dawn there, but either way, if Sid sells up now he ends up with HCA, an impressive roster and still enough cash to take the missus out to dinner.

This is true but Id be very surprised if he wasnt hoping to promote given the team he has.

Wish I could cyrstal ball who my cup opponents would be if I could keep on winning.

Potentially 180K worth of prize money from the cup during Allstars week, but ofcourse the smart thing to do would be to list both of my beastie boys on the market.

Okay Ive done the smart thing and put them both on the market and if they sell then the small profit on each will cover the 21% sales tax.

I probably forgot to mention that Urb had Legendary Inside Shot.

A few factors plunged me into the darkside and premeditated my purchase of the 2 beasts.

Smeltz's biological dad Urmumma made a few "encouraging comments" , I wanted Riviera and the beasty part inside me wanted to sabotage Team Akumas cash flow.

I hope no one takes offence at the quotes Ive given the 2 players.

Hope I dont have to line up against them in the cup next week.

Assuming they sell, they will play their last games for HA against Hadders this Tuesday night

Wow I'm am appalled that no one has actually mentioned the power of HCA even once. Even with more effort, TA lost pretty decisively.

HA's lack of gameshape on his players was made up by the depth on his team. Gameshape like that in the ABBL will not cut it.

Wish I could cyrstal ball who my cup opponents would be if I could keep on winning.

It'll be an ABBL after next week LOL

yeah i reckon Sid will sell up now and just buy back up again a week or two before playoffs
thats pretty much the best way to get the best bang for your buck

he doesnt really need that roster to beat anyone else..Hadders just bought a pretty big center but hes in crap gameshape. That centre is gonna be a headache for me once he has a few weeks to recover gameshape, while Sid gets away with playing hadders at less than 100% strength >.<

ahh bad day yesterday
lost a crucial league game, and kobe out for the rest of the season :(

Mangoloids, MJP, Geelong Vipers and the Cunning Linguists are all pretty reasonable teams who I have another game against.

Hadders just bought a pretty big center but hes in crap gameshape. That centre is gonna be a headache for me once he has a few weeks to recover gameshape


If you cant beat the beasts I brought in, why not join them? They are both on the transfer market and would definately give you an edge against Hadders

Thanks but no thanks
They are a tad out of my price range and I don't really want to resort to short term rentals

What about in EPL?

Dont players play for other clubs whilst on short term leases or contracts before returning to their original club.

With luck my 2 beasts will play their last game for HA tomorrow night against Hadders.

If they dont sell I will have one more go at selling them before the next financial update.

Only 70K worth of cup winnings up for grab this week where as next week if I can keep on winning there are 2 games worth 180K collectively
