i like ur style ;)

hmmm he looks very good!!
had mulled over another player recently, sold for $555,555 and he was a HOF... not as developed as Zero (love the name hahah) but I guess had more potential. If he stays below $600k i'd definitely snap him up!
jw

And it ends up being another Australian owner, Pancakes, who massively jacks up the bid and forces me out :P

nice name, Nerd Zero. I'd pay 600k just for his name hehe.

Maybe C-Cat is trying to keep him in Aus. What are his skills, anyone remember?

yeah i had bookmarked him too

there were a ton of great aussies 4 sale this weekend

i was trying so hard 2 tank but i have had 2 suck it up 4ever with crappy big guys letting the team down while xie, rad & barlas had 2 do everything & guys like smeltz & duffill raped us

so when i saw thick socks selling his whole roster i bid on a couple of the bargins

& got 1 at way below the tpe

ok i admit it

i suck at tanking

i dont know how people do it

so all that tanking & i am back 2 where i was just with a couple of extra losses 4 not much, i guess i upgraded 1 position

still adam, da fat boy slim & cowboys r all still fighting 4 the big 1, i guess i will try to fight everyone else 4 5th lols

well it is the 1/2 way point of the season so time for some 1/2 way stats

Total Salaries in Season 17
# Team Players Salary Tot Average Std Dev.
01. The Tasmanian Eagles (38596) 10 $ 427 958
02. Da Fat Boy Slim (196263) 14 $ 379 643
03. JW City Bulls (38667) 14 $ 365 506
04. Cowboys From Hell (196291) 12 $ 339 062
05. adams guns (196228) 11 $ 338 053
06. West Adelaide Bloods (196127) 10 $ 337 617
07. Yarra Park Bears (38601) 12 $ 325 001
08. The Meateors (38699) 12 $ 292 636
09. Melbourne Goldfish (38642) 12 $ 286 722
10. Home Axis (196319) 12 $ 269 459

15. Gold Nuggets (196401) 9 $ 115 352
16. DownUnder Thunder (38838) 7 $ 23 399

so i would have predicted a top 4 in salaries of eagles, slim, guns and hell so im surprised to see it is really a top 7 with jw, ypb & the bloods also having the big salaried rosters

funny that there r only 4 middle ground teams meaty, hax, learvins & me

then there r 4 tankers & 1 bot making the big $ while jw, ypb, bloods & i pay our big wage bills for the glory of being fodder 4 the big boys

next ill add 2 that the maxbbstats 2 see how well every1 has played

i know this is an imperfect measure but they use it in Big BoysBanter to compare teams so it isnt that bad

but it is obviously affected by cup runs & player buys/sells & is only a reflection of the best single game so 4 example mine will get better when my new guy my 2nd best player gets off inept gs

& it doesnt reflect the hidden value of teams 4 example adam bought a $3,000,000 trainee who will be amazing but not 4 a while

some massive surprises there

1 the great 8 dominates & will provide the winner in s17
2 learvins is 3rd best team in the league with a roster that doesnt look that good on paper
3 hax & i are best in the big 8
4 some teams like eagles & jw r overpaying some underperformers
5 adam & ypb MUCH lower than i would have thought

predictions

big 8
adam
ypb
goldfish
jw
5th hax - being the most ruthless will take the most profitable spot :)

great8
dfbs
cowboys
learvins
bloods
5th meaty - lucky guy makes the $$$

1st round
adam pon beats jw poc in a v close 1
goldfish upset ypb
dfbs spank bloods
cowboys have 2 spent enthusiasm to beat learvins

sfs
adam spends the enthusiasm & spanks the goldfish
dfbs knows this is the real final so has hca & poc & sends the cowboys out 2 the paddocks in a tight 1

finals
no contest dfbs goes to the abbl

I can't see adams guns going down in the playoffs if he secures HCA. DFBS/CFH (whoever gets through) will have a very, very tough semi, while I think adams guns will have an easier time of it. I think that'll show in the final.

no contest dfbs goes to the abbl

noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

All very interesting, well done.

I'm not sure I understand what this is really based on, can you explain in more depth or is it just a pretty general thing?
