The extra factor is every season your stars get one season older



What you have done by staying in the ABBL for as long as you have, is quite an achievement.


Back in season 20 I made the decision to sell off some good players whilst they still had value.

Perhaps I could have stayed up for 2 or 3 seasons, but if I had of stayed up, all that would have happened is that the good players that I had at the time would have aged and continued to lose value

I couldnt see a path forward that would take the team to the top, that didnt involve taking several steps back.

That said Fishy, Urmumma & Koops have all managed to restock the vault without dropping out of the ABBL and have all won significant trophies whilst using this strategy

Yes they have all had success while I have merely achieved a lack of failure.

A lot of big moves this evening I think we are getting some hints as to people's intentions.

I don't know if you'd call it success, but I regard it as a failure. I lost not once, not twice but three times in the grand finals. One win out of four is only a 25% success rate so that in my eyes is a fail.

Having said that, I'll rather be broke and have one ABBL championship. Its totally worth it even if it cripples your team for seasons.

I have enormous respect for your experience and managerial nous


I might also add that I for most of last season I competed with a 728 K roster

I actually really like my roster. But playing wayne and durling at pg for most of the season will limit my competitveness - i reckon ill be battling to avoid relegation.

We of the Big 8 love and respect you, but we do need a team from our conference to embrace the concept of relegation


I dont really want to be the first team to win an ABBL championship and then relegate the next season?

Immortals nearly did and after their one moment of glory they haven't come close to winning anything.

OK my Great 8 friends let's keep our salaries under $700k (Koops you need to sell someone) until the crossover games. Those greedy Big 8 teams are locked in a financial battle for supremacy.
