Yeah right, he did a good game, he has been a little slow to find his groove this season and I imagine that has to do with the opposition defence but hey, he has finally found proficient GS and hopefully will continue on his way.

I think you still have a good chance bains, your team will still be working each other out. I don't think anyone should be getting to set in their ways yet, we have more then half a season to go and I am sure plenty of changes throughout the league, hey I am happy with my team but not sure that the current list will be the exact team I finish the season with... :)

looking forward to see what the rest of the season brings for your team. they are in the middle of a tough 4 game run, so good luck with the next few games. they should be exciting and hopefully the title contenders from blue side throw some major punches.

my predictions for tonight are:

Plebs crush CRE by 48

Beasts probably still too good for Be High by 16

The Lakeshow to climb into a playoff spot after beating Freesky by 19

Falcons get their 3rd win over tigbots by 36

ACT far too strong at home for the Rangas... 32

Many Men are on a high and are dreaming of beating the Dreamers by 29

Hippos will face the one man army of Pabich and take it by 22

This is an interesting one. The spartans seem like the favourite pick but i think Sammydog has a bit of promise and will scrape through by 7

ACT looks very hot in all of this with best defence, best ratings and 3rd best offence. Also impressive are the Bainsynators plebs and Beasts Red. As usual the cut price Rangas somehow feature. Some really interesting ones, for example the Sparting pass the ball very well, CRE Towers score like crazy and the Hippos are the rebound kings.

lets not do a bottom 5.. i get the feeling the Dreamers will feature heavily :D

Not surprising that the same 2-3 teams keep popping up.. The Plebs have spent up big this season and have a huge salary budget, with that budget they should be dominating.
CRE scores lots, but they also CT every game nearly.. if they could balance enthisiasm better, they would prolly be a more consistent team and definite threat.
Blaze defense looks impressive, but it is in no doubt boosted by the walkover game i gifted them :D
Rebounds are a big weakness for the Dreamers, but we have had a trainee at C with resp reb all season, hopefully that will pick up as players develop!

Ndongo Diakite is a guy who i have been watching as a possible MVP candidate come seasons end, interesting to see all 5 top rated players from the blue side!

Wow Bains, what happened mate? I watched the last 3 mins and held my breath for you but it didn't help with your boy fouling on 0:00 to go! I must admit I haven't checked forward and back, did you change strategy against CT towers??

Really happy with those stats you show Hippo, it is appreciated that you spend the time to get them, makes for a great read, all I need to do now is figure out how to get my boys especially my PG to pass a little more than shoot, my percentage overall can't be that great even showing that I score a lot I want my guys to be getting better scoring opportunities and less shots.. Can't really complain though I am happy with my overall position. Unlucky bains, time to bump up the effort or reduce your salary champ

well mate i am not suprised i got CT'd, although i did beat him TIE - CT last season, so... idk. he beat my FCP which was probably a poor tactical error on my behalf. i probs wont give up already because im not really a fan of tanking. i still make just as much as some of the other guys despite spending more so i will keep myself in the mix and hope i can play better tactics and pull out some better performances come PO time. although finishing 4th again means i will be up against the best team in the conference.

the worst thing about tonite's performance was the massive amount of points i conceeded oh and the foul on 0.00 which is just stupid defense. had the momentum so i reckon wouldve got up in OT.

feel like im playing out the exact same tale as last season. tie'd vs zeds army and that really hurt. now happened against CT Towers.

lets hope i can compete with MM this time round, i feel like i let that one slip last season. MM shows alot more promise this season without the big salary big man.

I do not understand the result at all.. Crunch Towers has CT'd 8 games this season, without TIEing any.. His ENTH must be 0-2 at best.. how can 1 team continue to crunch time all season, and really have no effect.. Fair enuff he might have some good players, but how they can perform with such low enth each week is astounding.

Maybe the penalty for CT isnt enuff... Link it to stamina or gameshape or something... if team plays CT, then the players that play are unable to get a gameshape increase that week, with maybe even penalties to gameshape or something...

MM to me look to be a defensive juggernaut.. 3 of my guys fouled out tonite and we couldnt get anything going offensively.. i wanted to play look inside against em, but dont have the bigs for that just yet :D A loss to MM could see u drop out of the playoffs temporarily, if everything goes alright for the dreamers against Sammy

Some big scoring games tonite!
