Both Avalon and Hadders have been like ghosts since joining this league. You wouldn't even realise either of them has been in the ABBL with how quiet they have been. Bit like the calm before the storm really.

Both teams are full of young Aussie trainees that they have drafted themselves

Hadders appears like he'll be focusing on training and unless he abandons that path, he'd be unlikely to push

Avalon Jets are closer to a push as one of their trainees is around the 100k mark

If I was to focus on training trainees and Avalon Jets and Hadders was to do the same then the league just might be open for the rest of you to have a push, that said Im not sure that Im as patient as Hadders and Avalon Jets

Well maybe someone will trump him this time and he will go bankrupt. Always a risk if more than one team has a spend up.

I could actually run an 800k roster for the whole season without getting one of those nasty emails about bankruptcy

You'll be up for long service leave after this season!

I will probably look in the trophy cabinet and find a gold watch.

do it ...

do it ...

Id rather leave the "vault" untouched for 2 reasons

The challenge of one day promoting (not neccessarily this season) without having to resort to an unfair advantage

Being able to keep the "vault" intact for that one day if it ever comes of rentering the ABBL, so that I can have a real crack at the ABBL title and or cup

Looks like i've managed to sell off my big $130k let down player from last season. I've been trying to sell off Luis Encina since he went down with his injury in game 1 of the finals series and due to his age, had very little success. Dropped him to $1 just to get somebody to bid, otherwise he was going to get fired before the next finane update.

It will be interesting to see at how little he actually goes for, somebody is going to be very happy with this purchase. Personally I couldn't afford to keep him 1 more week as he was just costing me money. I'll then be down just over the salary floor, where I can sit comfortably for the remainder of the season.

I had some success relisting guys, down to my last one currently.

Look out! A price war has started!!! He's gone up to $2000... :-/

The pants! We wants them down! :)

Would be interested to get an impartial briefing as to the status of all the teams in the league.

Rare for a promotee from div 3 to be an instant contender in div 2, although it would arguably be easier to do now with the collapse of the players market, than what it was 3 or 4 seasons ago.

Have an understanding of where Avalon Jets and Hadders are and will be keeping a constant eye on them.

I have a feeling that Avalon Jets arent that far away from having a push

I obviously know Vios and Moosas Mad Men, but there are several teams whos Managers and teams capabilities, that Im not all that familiar with.

Based solely on last years ladder positions of Tannum Tantrums, Cunning Linguists and Geelong Vipers, one would assume that those teams are fairly competitive.

Whats the gyst there Vios?

Love you not to stop at the "pants off" of the newbees, please give us a complete "undressing" of all the existing combatants.

Perhaps yourself or Moosas Mad Man or one of the other knowleagable Managers could also give us a "full call of the card" as to what you perceive the odds are for each team to win the championship this season

Does Avalon Jets or Hadders ever grace this forum?

I had footy training tonight, so most likely will only look into the pants down tomorrow night, over a couple of cold Guinness. Just trying to get warm now but may have a look at it.

Not sure i'm too keen to run over every single team, especially for an ABBL relegate who's just looking to figure everyone out. I'm afraid that's up to you to do the leg work there, I just like running the newbies in with a warm welcome! ;-)

You have such a suspicious mind.

Fancy thinking that Id stoop to such levels as to trying to "case" each of the teams, or worse getting some one else to do the time and work involved in casing teams.

You know me, its all about participation and having fun and never just about winning

(will anyone believe this crap?)
