well you are out the rough patch of your fixture relatively unscathed. except for the lost to beasts who have confirmed themselves as the title favourites. it got a bit hairy for my team in the first half only managing to skip away from from the falcons in the second half

Betting odds

Title

2.50 Beasts Red
4.00 ACT Blaze
6.00 Wagadugu Hippopotamuses, Many Men
10.00 Mad Rangas, Bainsynators Plebs
11.00 Be High
22.00 Skyhook Dreamers
25.00 CRE Towers
27.00 Orange Spartans
31.00 The Lakeshow

at least that is what im thinking

Bains I am shocked, you put me as a definite outsider. I would've thought I would have similar odds to the beasts, seeing as he beat me by 7 at home if I get through with the best win-loss I would get HCA as Donny did last season. I actually have won more in the beasts=blaze rivalry until recent times, having said that I think you will find that Neebs has purchased a few more fellas than myself over the last season and half.. Having said that I think no matter the outcome it will be exciting, plus I think you probably rate a little higher once your guys start to work together, chemistry doesn't come over night.. :)

Wow, rangas gotta love thee buzzer beater to win.


it wasn't a 3pt buzzer beater actually
it was tied at 115-115 and we got the ball with 14 seconds remaining.
was never in doubt of taking the win!

outsider by no means. just intrigued to find out how you fair against Many Men. no offence but i have my reasons for the $4.00 price.

this will be subject to change.

plus I think you probably rate a little higher once your guys start to work together, chemistry doesn't come over night..


realistically - i lost to rangas, hippos, beasts, blaze.

play Many Men next up. if i can get the win in that one i may move in a bit. however the only potential contender i have beaten is Be High and they are off the pace.

keeping in mind the best i could probably finish is 4th giving me an extremely hard draw to the finals, with no home court performances until game 2 of the finals. all im saying is it may be wishful thinking this season. but you have to be in it to win it... and that game gap over skyhook now betters my chances to be in it

Full assault Ranga, I meant 'the' not 3! I also watched the end of your game, it was with 0:00 to go that he hit the shot to put you up by 2 but hey, who's counting as you got the win.

Agree that you will have a tough run no matter what Bains but as it has been mentioned many a time, tough div III. I have been in this league for 4 seasons, last season being the first time I had a chance to get out so it does take time to get competitive, think be high and many men have been in here much longer too..

hahah yeah mate a win is a win, and i played TIE so all is good at home for the rangas :)
looking ahead I think the Rangas are going to be a-ok :)


Interesting to watch Tomorrow nights block buster of the plebs vs many many many men.
the other 7 games should be all but pre-determined. would take some serious upsets this week i think. :)

Yeah, I would like to see Bains as having a chance but not sure... My tips,

Wags by 30
Beasts by 40 TIE
Rangas by 13 TIE
MM by 9
Zeds by 50
Be High by 12, assuming Chan plays
Blaze by 22

No problem enjoy the gift. I realy had to make the choice who I need to beat more you or the guys in the Big 8. Well you can see how I decided. I really wanted to just stick with the training at the moment and get the enthusiasm up to the max as I have a hard strech coming up when I play Plebs, Rangas and Beasts in a row and I will have to skip training then and set my best lineups for the first time this season.

While HCA will be an issue if I do make the finals against you it was a decision I had to make. My team really needs one more season of training to feel good about making the finals and possibly winning so training mostly comes first this season except for a very few games. I will make lots more changes before the playoffs but until then I am just trying to keep everyone fit, healthy and trained.

I am trying to sound smart but I have really made a couple of bad moves in the last season and a half which have set the team back. Hard to really know how things will work out until you do them. If this is the season for you or the Beasts so be it, I just wont be making it easy for you guys this season. I tanked last season, made a stack of money, got the trainee I always wanted for the future of the team (18 5k SS) and cut the players that couldn't take me to the championship.

Some close predictions there Brett, but i am honestly really happy to be walking away with the upset win against Be High. This puts me 2 games clear of the Spartans, and i really do not want to be in the relegation battle this year...

It was another one of those games where the opposition beat us in every aspect of the game, but we somehow walk away with the win, thanks to 1 David Chan.. I thought come OT when Hurriyet was off the court injured we were done and dusted, but we snuck home nicely..

Sets us up for a nice home game to the rangas next up, i expect to lose, but should be a nice pay day for us with a good solid crowd.

well a great win by skyhook with the tie.

i got the win but MM playing tie looks like he may be making a run at bretta for a title chance.

i continue to be astounded by the way you keep pace ranga. nice work

Ha,

Don't think I will be quiting my day job, just figured I would temporarily stand in for Bains :) Well done to you both Skyhooks and Bains, yeah he played TIE bains but you got the win which also helps your cause right?? Skyhooks, BH put more effort in than you right? So another season of strongs blues and an obvious differential on the reds.. Can that be reflected in Origin tonight?
