BTW Neebs I am your competition
Blah blah blah Beasts, blah blah blah Blaze. Everyone seems to think this is a 2 horse race just like last season. Well I hope it is a bit like last season.
As for people saying this isn't a strong competition well just look at Many Men. I think even they would agree that the top 4-6 teams were very even last season with Blaze, Beasts, Hippos, Rangas and Plebs also a chance to win. Now look at them in div2 with a 4-4 record and only PD away from 3rd spot. If we have up to 6 teams that could be mid table in a div2 how does that not make us a deep and strong div3?
I know a lot of the top teams (all but the Beasts?) have sold a few players but I think with the exception of Be High all the top teams are training like crazy. They are also making a lot of money so Dreamers, Rangas etc are probably just waiting for their opportunity.
Demoting teams can be tough, Naker and The Dons will be bad but a lot are easy beats who will just be content to rebuild for a couple of seasons until they are ready for their next push.
As for Be High, I just don't know how big a threat they are to the Blaze. People like to talk them up but last night my backup team + 1 starter took them on at their arena (it was hard to set this knowing the risks) and won by 17. If it was at my arena with my starters it would have been huge.
