Hey Yoda,

Now that your not in the ABBL, is there any chance that you might be able to privilige the readers of this forum with an incisive unbiast prediction of the season ahead?

Whilst Mllama, Dire, Bryce and Whitebeard IMO are likely to have a dash at glory, im curious as to who you think will "risk it all but not make the top of a podium", who will be content to "avoid relegation without really pushing themselves", who will "tank", who if anyone will "ignore the inevitable and simply struggle and relegate" , who will concentrate on the cup, who will win the cup, who will go bankrupt, who will go bot and who will hold the championship tropy aloft?

Could be the last opportunity for a long time for the established resident teams to win a championship , as Id imagine it wont be long before the billionaires Iwen and Zazz make it back to the ABBL

No I feel guilty every time I post here thinking that Dire, Mllama, Coachnoodles etc are getting more angry about the "spam" in their forum. But I will point out that while it is obviously early and things can change, the way the teams approach their first game can give a hint of their plans.

Zazzocalypse 28 point loss.
Kynlala Knights 24 point loss.
Hadders Heros 13 point loss.
Chelsea Seagulls 27 point win.

Obviously it is just one game and means nothing in the long term. But a serious bounce team I would have assumed would have gone all out to get those early wins to intimidate their opponents.

I know of a team which was about 6th in div 2 at the All Star break in season 15 , and went on to promote that season.

But enough of that, Id love you to tell us all what your crystal ball is saying will happen in the ABBL this season

I know a team that went 0-4 to start that same season but who ended up on top of their conference and may have promoted if it wasn't for a very famous scandal.

Scandal is a bit of a strong word isnt it?

To my knowledge nothing happenned that was outside of the rules.

Bit sad that it broke poor Beechys heart

haha wha?

I think the talk around here lately has been good. I don't think any of that IV.7 spam you see sometimes has made it here yet?

Cool. IF I ever make it back next time I will do some more serious writeups on the league. I didn't feel motivated this season, tanking destroys your soul.

"ignore the inevitable and simply struggle and relegate" <<<that sounds like me.
who will "tank"<<i should do this.
who will concentrate on the cup<<will probably end up doing this as a compromise.

It isn't funny not being on the Smeltztroopers side. What is funny is that they beat Slam ! by 27. Next they have WA IS A DUMP and their GS may not even crash too much even with three games a week as I suspect they were training it for the playoffs. Could grab some wins from Billy Hoyles Boys or Pancakes with Jam and Cream before GS starts to really stink and they become an easier target. I would love it if they got a top division II or ABBL cup opponent next(as long as it isn't me).
