The overall feeling is

It aint over until the fat lady sings!

I got smashed last time I went up, not sure if I have done enough to stay up IF I go up again....but the $ is good.

no, absolutely worth it holtz. from memory, inside was always your weaker area before you went up to the ABBL last time, so money well spent. especially in the ABBL with a guy like Rudolph Radford playing!

I am intrigued by Battlers use of Manovsky - clearly a good centre given the wage, but rarely rolled out for big minutes...could be the secret weapon. OR he is either weaker in one of rebounding, IS or ID maybe? either way, it will be Crocs or Holtz's problem to deal with next week!

I am hoping to reclaim 3rd, but am expecting Jeeves to try and go out with a bang in his final divII game for the season, so will need to be careful.

holtz to win it all. just in case i haven't said this enough!

already too excited for next season as it will be even closer than this one with several teams ready to take the step. Dell'Asta will be the player to watch. I'll call him the MVP for next season already!

I'm trying to slip ahead of Iwen in the draft standings so I'll be losing to you by as much as possible. Feel free to bang it inside against a couple of Lucky Fans defending at PF and C ;)

Koopasaurus going for it again
Razzle Dazzles tough and going for it
DownUnder Thunder already one of the top 3-4 teams
Yarra Park Bears even deeper
Ratman no longer tanking
Kynlala Knights no longer tanking
a relegated abbl like Lara Giants

Just to set you straight Goldfish, I spent the money on Goodes and Abundis in preparation for hopefully winning my upcoming relegation matches and I still have exactly the same draft position that I had before I bought those 2 blokes ..... and I most certainly do not have deep pockets but this season will hopefully set the platform for some success in the future thanks to some very tidy trainees on the list.
..... and now you know my strategy ...... sorry for pulling your pants down last match ;)

lol no worries

it is just a very scary looking division

next season if you and kynlala are both looking to advance as well as those other powerhouses then *wow* i guess there may be tougher division 2s but i know peeps in most of them and they all seem easier than this

and i will be sad if my perfect record of making the playoffs every single season is broken, but at least i didnt get relegated

but i sure cant afford to buy (and pay) a couple of 100k dudes any time soon so just not sure where to go next season, dont really want to just hang around 5th-7th each season struggling to hang on

lots of teams in this division have been playing for around 10 seasons with many in d2 and even some in abbl - they must have massive fanbases and income, this is our first in d2 and it is very different playing with the big boys

if this is the big boys then wat are the ABBLer's?

lets just hope our division doesnt get an ABBL demoted team... but instead get two div3 newly promoted teams.

The regular ABBL teams are the boys you call in when the going gets too hairy for the standard heavies

given you are the weaker conference and have been holding us back (ha ha), I think that if these changes occur as predicted, we will become the strongest div II league.

From memory, last season we were rated only 3rd strongest (which is offensive i think!). surely we are higher now?

Some of those top div III side are looking good and, if they have the money to spend, we will definately have a top comp. After a quick look, III.6 has a few good teams but also a couple good ones in III.10 and one in III.2 that will definately strengthen any league. It seems like some of them has grasp the importance of a good balnced D. Should be interesting to see just how good these teams will be.
