Boys, don't they have a forum on your soccer game? Not really interested in your results on there.

tank our next game and i will never mention it again :D

no idea on all stars at this stage! give it a few more games and i will make some wild predictions :D

lol, no chance big fella, whilst I culled the roster a bit this season I am still wanting the wins, therefore strategy has changed a bit and if I can keep myself up the top of the red at the end of the season I just may splash a bit of money! Having said that I won't be buying any quick fixes like last time round, if I buy it will be a decimating machine that will become a core piece of my hopeful div II team.. Still only a thought at the moment so don't stress too much Neeber, same time don't get too comfortable.

BTW Neebs I am your competition but I am an ok bloke, thought it a mad statement when you closed out chat as I entered...

haha after looking at the stats the game was relatively even. i know you had 2 injuries and it looked as if it was one sided. all the stats except fouls/free throws were close. the fouls and free-throws ultimately decided the game. that being said you had 2 injuries

but well done Brett

I didn't even see you come in mate because I wasn't focusing on that window as I was on the way out of the house at that time!! I do want to reply to your pm but I just haven't had the time to do it as of yet but it will be coming!!

RL is just really really busy at the moment

Hey don't stress man, was a bit of a stir in there, sorry if it came across all serious :)

What's RL?

RL = real life.

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.

Maybe didn't make that comment clear Wags, I meant inter-conference.

You and Beasts are both stronger then my team at this point and when you look at the cost of your teams at about 40 or 50k less you are getting some serious value for your coin.. Will still have to see how we we go, I am not going to lie down and let either of you walk over me purely for pride, still will play my strongest side against you both and see how I do compete.

BTW Be High are not a threat, his guys are getting much too old and as you pointed out no training,he will fall out of the top 4 sides of the Red next season or the one after.

Just note that i have not really said much in the discussion but just remember that Beasts totally have a different view point to be the one going around.

Yes, I do feel like i have one of the strongest lineups in the competition, people were saying the exact same thing last season about me and look how that turned out. I have never thought that i am going to have an easy ride to the finals and even there i am not 100% confident.

I mean seriously I put alot of people on close to the same odds as my self.

Neeber

well just days after Skyhook saying he would be fine with seeing the Dreamers go down a division he has made 2 purchases which look to put him back into at least a chance for 4th

what can i say, i change my mind alot :D i saw this guy on the TL and thought why the hell not :D He gives me a fair amount of flexibility and means i can compete in the front court now.. If any other bidder had placed 1 more bid, i was prolly out of the running..

i have 2 guys leaving tonite, so had to get a couple of guys to replace them.. the advice i had was spend 450k on a C who was 30+, (great advice to i think BTW..) but i figure the extra 100k for a 23 year old will save me a fair bit down the tracks.. he does need to get 1-2 pops in somewhere, but i am sure i can work it into my training with my SF to get what they need...
