I'm interested in a rankings table measuring div 3 teams' strengths based off average game player rating and/or the average difference in OS/IS/PD/ID/REB/OF rating between the team and its opponent after every game. If only there were a search program for such detailed stats :(

3 of those 5 undefeated ABBL/Div2 teams are sharks!

too bad we are getting whooped in the PL :( haha

lol whereas the 3 calamari in the abbl have 8 wins in total :(

but we do have naker holding the banner w a 6-0 record in d2 & matty8 in d3

Speak for yourself I'm 5-1!

its nice to be on that list, but not sure we can go through undefeated in this league...

Yeah, I'm thinking the same thing. Tomorrow's game will give me sone idea of where I'm at as I play the Div II relegator who is also undefeated. However, strangely, he sold his two most expensive players yesterday. Is he going to buy something bigger or is he backing out of this season? At this stage, in terms of my chances of going undefeated, Kintoc's Flames and GoldCoastSH are my two immediate threats although a few others are stepping up their teams. I would like to say now (you heard it here first) that Div III.3 will become another Div III.12...hard to escape!

You mean another III.6 right?

Yeah...both. lol

Alright lets crank this up!

How about we start with who the Australian community thinks are the favourites.

III.1

Rather disappointing that this division has only received 7 votes considering in previous seasons it has been one of the more active leagues in the last few seasons. Anyway...

Both Fishy Kangas and Jerries picked up 2 votes each as Karmar went bot early on. This is the only div III to lose 2 of their top teams last season with both the Winnerz and Tannums Tantrums departing.

Jerries however look to be disappointing their supporters already 3 games back of the 7-0 Kangas. The Tornado are up there as usual representing the Great 8 on 7-0.

III.2

A better turnout here with 14 voters. Poppenpop and Magicvsbird are touted as favourites with 4 & 5 votes respectively. However 3 manager believe someone who finished outside the playoffs or promoted last season will take the title.

Magicvsbird clearly didnt get the memo as they are in a massive tank and 0-7. Popenpop are more promising with a 5-2 record, although are not looking as dominant as they did last season.

III.3

Only 7 voters again here. And they seemed to have narrowed it to a field of 3. Moorditj Magick with 3 votes, Flames with 2 and Gold Coast SH with 2.

The voters seemed to be paying attention with only a single loss between those 3 sides.

III.4

7 voters again. Maybe the same 7 people lol. Last seasons runner up Sambo 54s are the favourites with 3 votes while unheard of Dellas Stars are 2nd favourites with 2 votes.

Sambo has started well with a 6-1 record and atop their conference while the Stars are 5-2 on the other side.

Teams left in cup - 3

III.5

The Favourites here are the Flow Gaming with 3 of the 9 votes while Sydney Sea Eagles and Home Axis are backed well with 2 votes a piece. With 5 teams on 6-1 there may be some other challengers to check out later, but all the favourites are there.

III.6

There are two overwhelming favourites hear with the long awaited arrival of Brisbane Thunder who have 6 votes and then the dormant III.6 stalwart Possum Chasers heavily backed with 8 votes. Both the favourites have dropped a game already this season. But at 6-1 things are looking pretty for the two favourites.

III.7

A very even comp here according to the voters with the Atrains with 3 votes and C U Next Tuesday, Springvale Shaquilles and Sonic Booms all picking up 2 votes a piece. The Shaquilles have the undefeated record, however have the other 3 hot on their tail.

Teams left in cup - 4

III.8

Possibly a few teams voting for themselves in this division, but Unbeatables is the crowd favourite with 3 votes and Eggplantopopulous 2nd favourite with 2 votes.

The Eggplants wont have a say with their 1-6 record, Whereas the 7-0 Clippers and Demons weren't backed at all by the voters.

III.9

Div II relegate Learvins was looked over for the title here with Mayhem and Bringing Sexy Back polling 3 votes a piece, with last seasons Runner-up MTbreds polled 2.

The voters seemed to know what they were doing as Learvins struggles at 3-4, while the other three have had solid starts. The Wild Turkeys questioned their omission from the poll and have shown why sitting atop the Great 8.

III.10

The two ex div II teams receive the tags of favourites in the eyes of the public. The Meteors narrowly edge out Doncaster Flames as the favourites with 4 & 3 votes respectively.

Both sides are atop their conferences and looking good for title pushes.

Teams left in cup - 7

III.11

The money has really come for Zazzocalypse to demolish their way back to div II being an ex ABBL team. They however had other plans and have tanked their way to 0-7 in an attempt to out-tank Tetrahedron for the top pick. We will take a closer look at the actual competing teams later on with 4 at 6-1 there will be some big games.

III.12

The league everyone has been waiting for! A fairly good turnout with 17 voters picking their favourites. The clear favourites with 7 votes are my lads the Gisborne Gladiators. Although Skyhook Dreamers are also well back with 4 votes, with 2 unfortunate souls voting for the erratic South Brisbane Vultures.

There were two voters who believed someone can drop from the clouds and take a championship away from the elustrious list of teams.

The Gladiators have disappointed to date with a 4-3 record, whereas the Dreamers are looking the best at 7-0. A few teams left on 6-1 who could have justified some votes.
