Wow,

Dunno about that man.. I have the luxury of a fairly weak conference which is why I will stay up the top..

My advantage this season is the money, I am making over 100k a week due to a much reduced salary (145k) and sitting on a handy wad of cash already. Beasts will secure home ground as I think their is little doubt that he will lose more than 1-2 games, but as WAGs and MM showed last season that isn't the be all and end all.

Agreed to on Zed's player, I can't see how a player like that could be worth that, unless... He may have some strong secondaries as they don't affect your overall wage unless you are an SF (best pos). If this is the case he may train him with Gallot and Pablich..

i was actually thinking today
i might do some investigations into where Zeds is buying his players from
coz he overpays for everyone, and not just buy a little bit either.

is Zeds a financial feeder team? hmmmm.

just seems dodgy as hell.

Brett looks like you are about the same as me. Costs way down this season as well.

Typical Weekly Net Income: $ 101 634

So I guess in the weeks before the playoffs there may be some big purchases, I am still bidding on guys trying to get an ice-veined-lock-down defender to slow down the Beasts. So I could shoot my load a little early.

But if we are making that much I shudder to think how much cheap teams like the Rangas, Dreamers and Gladiators are making, probably near $200,000 a week.

Rad - Zed is just very slack with his money, good news for all of us.

End of the season I expect ACT on 22 wins, Beasts on 21, be high and me on about 18 and then Rangas, Dreamers, Spartans and Gladiators on somewhere about 14-16. Don't see anyone else in the Great 8 causing many issues although Sammy Dog has a brilliant center.

Yeah I'd be thinking around 13 - 16 wins for me.

Hippo, when my stadium fills up i'm earning only around $110k profit. down from $135k at the end of last season.
my salaries went way up with Gab, Daniel and Schiavio all bumping up... and I'm not too far behind you guys now with total roster salaries.
Thinking i need an entire team restructure.
For a team called the Mad Rangas, i'm lacking a number of key red head role players! :P

Blaze will finish on 21 wins, beasts 21 also.
hippos will finish on 19 or so.
be high will be around 18 wins i expect.
then probably bains/dreamers and myself all fighting for 3rd.
i'll pick dreamers 3rd, bains 4th and me 5th at this stage.

No more cup for me, I used last night's purely for minutes and didn't get as badly scalded as I thought I would.

Hippo, even though I have HCA against Beasts this year my team as it is will not be strong enough I don't expect to beat the beasts and I don't expect it will change before we play. Oh, I am about 120k a week actually. :)

Ranga, maybe you should go with a name change, get a bit of ethnic culture included.. Uno Rangas, Dos Rangas lol..

not a terrible idea Brett
but i think i'll wait for my non-rangas to retire then i will replace them with folks that have a tinge of the ginge!!!
and if i get any wicked players in the draft that aren't rangas, i will FIRE THEM on the spot instead of selling them.

j/k
but seriously.. going to theme out my team in the long run.

Well looks like I'm 6th. Well done Bains. Proving again you're a much more well rounded team than mine.
Going to have to review my player list and salaries.
