You might go broke as I might have a big bet on Aussie

:D


SO you either go for the Cup or you go for the league title. Gone are the days of winning the double in one season. Direwolf and whitebeard are just ABBL legends of the game



Until just recently I didnt consider myself a chance for either, now I give myself an outside chance of winning the cup.

If I was lucky enough to win the cup with 200 odd K less salary than Dire, I would somehow then have to try and resist the almighty challenge that you have just posted of winning the league & Cup double, so as that I could achieve my primary objective which is ofcourse the training of my SF trainees

I think I read somewhere that Fish had won a cup, bit of a concern that hes been saving for a couple of seasons now

You would be a massive chance this season to do the double. Personally, I still believe it was possible for koop to have done it last season aswell.

Perhaps your just trying to make me feel a little bit overconfident.

We havent played each other yet and your team is well and truly alive in both.

Still possible for him to do it in both this season as well.

H's only 2 games out of the 4 and could easily come with a run if he decided to buy up

Yeah wouldve been possible if Scott Sneider didn't bury that trey in the last quarter.

anyone can win the Cup. Like, I said, whoever wins the Cup won't win the league title.

My thoughts on this were, if you won the cup do you really need to win the league in the same season, given the strain on finances that this might cause

Of course you do, winning the Cup and league title in one season puts you in an elite class. Only done by two managers in ABBL thus far.

But yeah it does put a huge strain financially, and you also need lady luck on your side.

3 managers. Though the eagles doing it in season 3 probably barely counts anymore :p.

I just feel that if you do win the cup, and keep 1st spot in the league, you are a big chance. However, still a long way to go and you may overestimate a team and lose, or not set tactics right, others buying up, etc.

I'm not trying to make you feel somewhat overconfident, but it is what I see. Others may feel differently, but you know your team best. So, I can only judge from what I see.

Doubles;

Eagles x 1
BLS x 3
WB x 1

In the 25 seasons that this league has been around for, winning both cup and league has happened 5 times. So on ave it happens 1 in 5 seasons. It's been 5 seasons since the last double, so we are due for 1. However, the league this season is very tough between the top teams, so perhaps unlikely.

Reality is that ive never ever won anything of consequence, so to win either a cup or the ABBL league would be great, to even briefly contemplate winning both in the one season would be fantasizing.

Like I say Dire has an extra 200k in salaries than what I do and has already beaten me once..

For the record; Stone Slashers forgot to set a team against me
I had HCA against Aussie and he played Schneider for 48mins at PG
I had HCA against Immortals

Just been consistent rather than overly good

When you say it like that, you suck.
