Don't feel bad, I had a few mates who went Goodes as a unique last week - I was expecting something in the 130 range from his V richmond especially at the G.

Just leave the C on Swan mate, he always finishes the year with a bang and Arizona seems to have done wonders for his knee so lock and load the big "c" and bloody leave lol

Ah a Charlton man, I don't mind that - I noticed you guys were doing well and picked up a few decent signings in the transfer period - Johnnie Jackson gives you flexibility wide and a bit of firepower and Eull was a very good acquisition. Hope they can promote this year. The black cats are alright but I'm never allowed to say that around my toon mate lol I used to like them when Phillips and Quinn were running around and now Steve Bruce is virtually turning them into a Man Utd reserves team (I think there might be an undisclosed gentlemans agreement between he and Sir Alex lol).

The Saints are looking good and have one of the best youth acadamies in the land so I hope for their sake they can make the transition and hopefully hold onto a few of their starlets as opposed to being poached dry by the free spending bigger clubs.

I hate the Victory with a passion so I'm glad you said Heart hahaha ;)

too early into the english season to know how it will all turn out but our side is definitely looking better than previous. alot more creative up front and more consistent at the back. enjoying every moment of it atm.

be good to see the saints climb back up especially after the few seasons they had to start on -22 points or something like that.

gotta be happy beating the boganators on tuesday for your first win. just a matter of preparing your side for the relegation series unless skyhook and ranga want to be incredibly nice and let you finish 5th and condemn 3 teams on the other side to relegation.

good luck mate. good to hear from ya. hope you stay around these forums when you arent too busy with other manager games

I guess I missed GOLF in my list of likes, not as boring as soccer. My biggest problem with soccer is the faking crap they do, we lost to Italy in the world cup because some retard tripped himself up with no aussie players even close to the man.

Yea I was happy but I hear I pretty much won by default coz Boganators doesnt check his side - I set my team to GFI so I probably couldve just gone TIE and taken the win, I had no idea he wasnt even looking at his team!

I was talking to Skyhook about what I wanted to get out of this season - I was pretty much going to write it off and focus on training my PG & SG's all year and get relegated so I can come back the season after next bigger and better, but Skyhook pretty much convinced me to atleast try to stay up, secure a 6th or 7th spot and battle it out to atleast give myself a chance of staying up rather than resigning myself to relegation.

Cheers mate, I try to get on as much as time allows me - being an insomniac helps, as late at night is pretty much the only time I have to relax and do the things I enjoy doing like this! I get on here at work here and there but they are pretty anal about these sort of sites so I try to keep it to a minimum.

there is a simple way to check who gets on... On the standings screen, if you clock on BIG 8 or GREAT 8 at the top of the conference standings, it shows you the last time each GM was online... A handy little feature...

I think botanator will take 8th, so if u finish 6th or 7th then you at least have a fighting chance at staying up... I think you really need to get ur finances sorted tho.. if u are losing money, cut the crap out of your staff even further..

You play me in a few days so I hope you stay a mess until then, but after that I will be happy to help you. I had a recent season of tanking and so know what to do. Rad and Skyhooks also know a thing or two about being stingy.

Well done Neeber on our match, when I made that massive 3rd quarter comeback I thought I had you (12-0 at one stage) but we fell apart in the 4th. Your 2 guards Neil and Jacek couldn't miss from 3 point land and the 9/16 they hit while my team went 2/19 was the difference in the match. I am sure my guys can go 2/19 again but I am not so sure your stars can consistently hit nearly 2/3 of their 3 pointers.

Perhaps it was "brave" (stupid) of me to have my trainee playing 48 minutes at the PG spot being abused by Neil. Neil ended up with 36 points and my guy had 0. However as I said my aim during the season this season is to train, train, train. I didn't actually think the game would be so close, I thought you were much better than me at this stage. I don't know what I thought. If we meet in the playoffs I may just have someone a little better guarding Neil and hopefully things will be a little different.

Good luck everyone in the cup tonight!

Whilst Neil is definitely quality he is not my best guard!!! But where my team also is [team=XXX] good is the quality of the guard backups, LEN and KERRY I have every faith in to hold their own against any of your bench guards!!

It was close and I was more confident of taking it this this time but I think you underestimate the power of HCA... What would have been a 15-20 point win gets reduced on the road...I as I have always said I think that this league is definately one of the 2 hardest league III's to gt out of!!

And I am also continuing training so m y guard lineup will only get better!!!!

lol i can cover neil for you hippo but you can deal with Jacek and Kerry cause they have me beat

and our Cup Dreams are over.. Possum Chasers dismantled us.. 2 positives : their trainee fouled out so wrecked his minutes, my trainee got 48m... really looking forward to training update tomorrow!

Yeah I can't wait for training now. :)
Good stuff Dreamer!

Well I was thinking I could just get by on my $25-$40k a week income (attendances should rise a little once new prices are in effect I'm hoping!) and then sell a couple of my trainees later to get a bit of a bank balance happening for arena upgrades next year. Am I way off in my thinking? I have no idea haha

You definitely convinced me to atleast try to stay up, so I'll do my best in that regard but my team is going to take some time now to develop after an entire first season wasted ie grossly incorrect training etc.

Thanks Hippo, please don't destroy me too much in our game lol... my prediction... PAIN
