hahah its all good
smeltz has done it all now ... winning the cup and ABBL title seems like a pipe dream now so i'm happy to just yo-yo up and down if need be ... interest has waned abit so lets see how this season goes eh
gluck for the season fishy

Nice write up fishy! Pretty accurate if you ask me.

Im glad to have a nice upset victory 1st round, but i doubt i can keep it going for long!

Amazing work Fishy, pissed off i can only like one of your posts a day, part of that may be that you picked me for the title ;)
Tbh I'll be the same as last season, in it for the title but not going to do anything rash to get it. and bloody hell tonights loss was a wake up call, even though I forgot to set my lineup and did it 10 mins before I batted in my cricket this afternoon.
When I thought easy win so play 2 starters and then forgot to put one of my trainees at C :p
Not a great start but we'll recover :)

Thanks again.

Adam

Just a lazy 59 point game from O'Daire tonight. What's Xie got on that? ;)

great 8
SmeltzTroopers
West Adelaide Bloods
Learvins
West Coast Steel
The Pwnage
The Meateors
Cowboys From Hell
Vis Maior

With equal gameshape and enthusiasm, I won comfortably playing TIE against normal and playing 2 of my starters out of position... Fail?

Yeah, I think fishy's a little off with that one. Maybe he wasn't sure if you were going to tank again, and so he picked the halfway point of tanking/success?

haha...yeah im goin for the full set of div 3 titles, seems ive found that magic tipping point where my boys cant lose in 3 but cant win in 2. time for a shake up maybe?

well ur tie vs normal is cancelled out by the hca

he also played just like naker

made his happy bunch of pensinors all play 48 minutes or close to it which is never the best

normally he is very careful & he has given a lot of good teams a hard time but his players are so old maybe some unpops have weakened him

good win pabs

is this as your announcement that tanking is over & winning is here?

what an interesting 1st round

big 8
* adam forgets to set his lineup so cccpba gets their first d2 win
cccpbas 2 big men show their class white has a 30/16 game and the pf Voevodin gets a triple double

* goldfish r so worried about the players they put training off a week & use close 2 best line up 2 get the win

* marmots can barely squeeze past YPB even with odaire matched up against this player for 32 minutes so he can get his bloated stat line

* jw & HAX have the match of the round with jw showing his strength getting the win away and Jarrod Corica maybe (14844503) announcing his arrival as an elite player after 5 slow seasons of training
HAX also played all his stars 48 minutes dont know what he will do in the next 2 games
will he be giving adam a free win on tv?
will he do a koop & lose 2 a bot in the first round of the cup?

great 8

* smeltztroopers just obliterate WCS looks like he does want his 4th d3 title & as advertised smeltz now has quality company

* meateros slaughtered the 3 cowboys that turned up r the cowboys ridin into the sunset?

* pwnage vs learvins is already discussed but pabs is telling us watch out (esp meaty) this season he is for real

* vis vs WCS was a big upset with vis using the hca to get a great win over one of the teams i have high expectations for

lol funny my 2 finalists both lose 2 my 2 finishing 8th predictions


@rabidcamel - xie can just answer with a mere 41 pts 2nd best in the whole league but he got it against a 40k star not a 2k scrub

1) Let's take hca and effort out of it then. With the same gameshape, enthusiasm and his best lineup... I won comfortably.
2) I have a headstart on enthusiasm due to better management.
3) My players are not going to cost me a fortune in depreciation this season.
4) He didn't upset any decent teams other than yourself last season. Like most, just took advantage of the many teams who tanked.

That being said, I would say you got it horribly wrong...

is this as your announcement that tanking is over & winning is here?

That can't be answered with a definite yes or no. I am far from spending all my resources at a title run as Willie is going to spend a lot of time out of position, but this season I am confident with my current list I am a top 3 side in my conference (while cfh is tanking). Whether I decide to go the all out tank again depends on how I am placed after asw and also whether troopers look like promoting again. At this stage I have no intention of tanking again...

as usual putting an early effort into being mr diplomacy season 18 :P\

but u could be right only u know if it is time 2 go 4 it

looking @ ur roster i thought another season of training would be good & looking @ your conf with smeltz 100% bent on world domination i thought it would be a bad time 2 compete but if u r then no doubt u will be top 3-4

as 4 ur comments about learvins, which also apply to HAX & naker they can always get a good level of success from that sort of strategy but mostly i dont see teams making the abbl that way, they tend to be like fat boy, smeltz, seagulls, adam, monkey, zazz, kynlala etc & have trained their guys into the sort of players that they want

sure there are exceptions like hopelessly addicted but i think they are the minority
