HA would be better off if they were spending 200K a week less on players and wasnt worrying about training.

Playing a couple of the better players out of position for training minutes isnt winning HA any games even with the 600k a week players bill


If you know this, why are you continuing on this road? sell a few and be happier with that extra 200k. Life don't have to be hard you know.

So concede 5th spot and save up for a relegation series against yourself or Zazz?

Bit sad but the reality of this game is that its a lot less work and expense to buy ready made champions than what it is to train them

Well it wasn't like that a few seasons ago but guys that used to be worth $2,500,000 are now worth $500,000 or even less. It is only the truly well balanced and trained players that are perfectly crafted which have kept their value.

It took about 8 seasons of training to shape Pedrosa.

Its true HA wouldnt have received 2 lots of one million promotion bonuses without him, but on todays market Id be lucky to get more than 3 mill for him.

A team could save 3 mill just by tanking a season in the ABBL

Well it's nearly half the season and you managed 3 wins so far with that roster. Once Pancakes are done with the cup, it's hard to see you holding 5th. I am just giving you a friendly advice, even though, I rather have you holding on to your roster and come 6th or 7th.

At the current rate, I think Zazz and DFBS could easily dispose of the Great 8's 6th and 7th as long as it isn't Pancakes. Pancakes probably won't be in one of those spots and will probably finish 5th. He has the cash to dictate where exactly he wants to finish and I just can't picture him wanting to risk a relegation series when he is better financially at 5th and he has the means to do so.

While I agree with you, I wouldn't underrate the impact of home court advantage - 7th in the big 8 v 6th in the great 8 would probably be a pretty tight series just because of HCA...

I'm one c-c-c-c-c-crazy cat though! who knows what I'll do?

I also have a fascination with slippers, a fair bit of my cash has been wasted on various pairs or soft fluffy footwear...

It is getting interesting in the Great 8. 6 of us still in the cup and all have winnable games this week. Proabably helps the other half a bit if we all win this week as sooner or later it will be tankapalooza in some league games as the cup keeps getting tougher.

Here's hoping i get through this week and Draw a Div 3 team in the last 32! There's going to be at least 4 of them into the next round so a few of us might get lucky.
