Yep we are in rebuilding mode as well and it means we won't be featuring in the playoff picture. My first season of potential relegation hope I make it through.

I hope we don't end up in relegation zone and playoff against each other cause that will be sad.

You've still got a few good players and I'm sure that you'd still be a tough team to beat. Grothe is a fine example and those 46 points he scored 8-16 from 3PT range and 17 rebounds as an PF makes him an early contender for MVP. You've still got Desmont and Manovsky, so I'm sure that you'll figure out what you need before end of season, and then you'll start ripping teams.

Wrapped I won my 1st up match over DT as these early matches are so vital for my team. Ex ABBL team Snuffies next, so no rest for my guys.

Should be a good game, yes snuffies are an ex ABBL team, but when I last looked you are also an ex ABBL team.

The only new teams to get a win in the first round were snuffies, and maggots. I play maggots next up, so should be good to see how I stack up agaisnt the new compition.

The only real blow out was Fat Boys, but they appear to be saving up their stars for a cup run, so not a real lot we can read into that result. Except a free game to Northcote.

Match of the round this round I think is Suffies taking on Yarra Park Bears. Should be a good game with both teams pretty even in all positions, but I think looking at the positions that Snuffies have a stronger point guard position, and will get over Yarra Park by 8 points.

Yeah I know that would be terrible given our history

We will see if I can get some firepower behind me and make some noise. On the flipside I have never drafted better than eighth so a bad season might help me get some youthful talent in.

Bad early starts last two seasons have put us in the hole. Good for you to have one under the belt.

wierd startto the season with teams tanking for the cup, hard to get a guage on where everyone is at.

1 good thing for me is that it looks like I will be making a profit every week this season, rather than losing $40+ K every week.

Yeah.

First cup games start soon. I wonder who will be the first to get kicked out of the cup this season?
Looks like there are a few teams planning to go an a cup run, so there should be some easy games for some teams come week 3 or 4 onwards.

Interesting to note everyone seems to be in a rebuilding phase this season, trying to talk down their ambitions and turn the target onto another team.

So I think I will join the chorus and state that I need to start rebuilding, especially when you look at the ages of m players, all starting to get a little too close to the 30 year average.

LOOKS LIKE A SURE 50K FOR ME THIS WEEK. Anyways, I need a rebuilding but I cant afford it this season because I am new and very poor. I don't think I will be tanking anymore game after the previous blow out....it will be play hard or die trying...

After Razzle Dazzles great cup run last season (In season 14, Razzle Dazzles were one of the final 16 teams in the Battlers Tournament) they got a bad draw this season and went down to ABBL team Avalon Jets. The Jets are currently ranked 5 in Australia, and are one of the mainstays in the ABBL, being in the top league since season 4.

I guess that means Razzle will be focusing on the league games now, watch out the teams in the Big 8.

Wowzer, Winniepoo just followed Kylala Knights bet and raised it with a 373k center! I can see this season will be battles of the bigs. This 373k center is so awesome and expensive that it makes my Duffman looks like a little tadpole swimming in the ocean.

Anyways congrats on winning that center Winniepoo, hope he'll be the one to carry you to ABBL this season.

More like bankruptcy. Nobody in II can maintain that kind of salary. I think it's just a rent-a-big.
