This proves there are serious flaws in the game if this is what it costs to promote from II to the ABBL. Add to this the fact that you spent all of this and almost didn't make it and I think BB has some serious problems that need to be addressed.



I seriously doubt that there has ever been 2 teams with such high salaries fighting it out in Div 2 for promotion.

Any of the old timers with an understanding of the history of the game able to comment on this?

No chance. You saw the salaries in season 15. Beechy got robbed and had what a 350k roster. Times have changed

Nope and if you take a look unless they have fired someone the Coin Collectors made it with a team of about $500,000 and struggled to beat the teams fighting over relegation late in the season. The Yarra Park Bears were also only at about $500,000. The Immortals had a team of about $300,000 most of the season and only picked up a giant $250,000 rental and two $130,000 guys late in the season still leaving them at about $800,000. It was just an epic battle in this league.

Don't know the backstory to this. Why was it considered that he got robbed?

they are just highlighting the point that in a Div II GF, if you have a team salary of $800k+, then you should be promoting.

or the inverse (which is what Sid is getting at) - is that he will now hold the record for the highest salary of a losing team from a Div II GF.
