Strewth been bloody quiet here. Maybe all youse bloker are scared of Slam, I reckon the Allstars had a chance but they got belted. Looks like Slam and Titans in the grand final.

There hasn't been a lot of support of this forum, I am hoping next season we get a few more active players around.. I am thinking Titans will be hard to beat, even for Slam.. I wouldn't count Screaming Eagles out as an outside chance.

On a different note, anyone drafting?

Yeah forum has been a bit quiet. But not too surprising considering it has been xmas and new years etc recently.

I agree that the Screaming Eagles are a chance at winning, but Titans does have HCA so I think Titans are probably favourite at the moment.

Nah I'm not drafting at all, been a waste of money in the past for me.

3 SG's all with Prof GS, nice pick ups.. Maybe not quite enough to pick up 4th again though, guessing that was never your plan though.

I have spent some money on the draft, not really enough though, once you do the combine and the demo never really have enough points elsewhere to get a good grasp of the draft.. I haven't found anything exceptional, 1 5/4 ball but he will obviously go in the first couple of picks.

Thanks mate. Yeah I'm not trying to pick up 4th, just want to stay in 5th :)

I wish the draft wasn't such a waste, they should really work on improving the calibre of players that can be drafted. I hate getting 3 crap draftees every season.

Am hearing that, I have once got a decent set of draftees which is where I picked up my SG Moodie from and I think I finished 5th that season.. I don't think I have finished at all in the bottom couple where you seem to get a good chance to pick up a good player, maybe if they added a few more quality players...

I wish they at least made the 19 year old players worth getting. At the moment they are no better than the 18 year old players but they are a year older which means one less year of training. I wish they made it so the 19 year olds came with the extra season of training provided so maybe they could start with skills up to proficient instead of a max of respectable.

Leigh Rieffel (19608083) Point Guard
Weekly salary: $ 12 050
Role: rotation player
(BuzzerBeta)

DMI: 228900
Age: 20
Height: 6'8" / 203 cm
Potential: superstar
Game Shape: proficient

Leigh Rieffel was pick 7 in the season 15 draft by West Island Tigers.

I reckon the rileman was worth drafting, this bloke is gunna be a grouse SF when I'm finished with him. I really need a new rookie cause Kryst is way past it now so fingers crossed youse bludgers don't spend a brass razoo. But pickin in the last few aint the best I got nuthin but daft drongos last season.

Slam is grouse but I reckon Titans having it at their home ground will be hard to beat.

Yeah fair call, at least maybe some strongs. I think that a 19 yr old should be a slight disadvantage but not to the current level. I haven't even bothered trying to train a 19 yr old training, fired or sold..

Nice player, there are one or two in the draft I suppose, but you have to get lucky to get them.

Yeah home court advantage is what will make the difference this time in the playoffs I think.
