Well I don't know who is broke and who isn't but for interest here is the current salaries right from Buzzermanager.

Team TOTAL SALARIES
Lewisham Wombats $ 861 605
Whitebeard $ 845 254
Monkey Business $ 791 932
Chumunga $ 771 513

WA IS A DUMP $ 743 654
Guanzheng Goldfish $ 694 096
Koopasaurus $ 684 160
Billy Hoyles Boys $ 656 370
Chelsea Seagulls $ 611 619
Aussie Pride $ 573 637

No surprise to see Lewisham Wombats and Whitebeard ranked one and two. Monkey Business always say they mean business so maybe they will be the biggest threat as could Bell Park SuperCats. Aussie Pride and I despite coming 2nd in our conferences have fairly cheap rosters being 11th and 10th most expensive. Koopasaurus obviously had to be up there after his little slip up. But interesting to see three of the top seven salaried teams are not playoff teams but those that don't want to get relegated. Chumunga with the 4th highest salaries in the league fought hard to drop down and face the Guanzheng Goldfish and not WA IS A DUMP. The only one not competing is the Baxter Bogans who it seems have condemed us to have another season with WA IS A DUMP.

Predictions

Relegation Matches
WA IS A DUMP takes it easily in two over the Baxter Bogans who are heading to division II.
The Guanzheng Goldfish have the home court but while they were fighting to avoid this Chumunga has spent all season preparing for it. Chumunga in three.

QFs
Big 8
Lewisham Wombats will have to work against the ever consistent Bell Park SuperCats but wont lose.
Aussie Pride v Monkey Business is the game of the round and while Aussie has the homecourt I think Monkey can cause an upset here but this will be very close.

Great 8
Whitebeard v CROCKERS a first round bye.
Chelsea Seagulls v Billy Hoyles Boys will be very close with the boys having a slightly better roster to the Seagulls home court advantage. I hope HCA will be enough.

SF
Lewisham Wombats who PONd at home against Monkey Business who POCd, easy win.
Whitebeard is in the same situation as mllama against Chelsea Seagulls, home court, better enthusiasm and better team.

Finals
Lewisham Wombats v Whitebeard
Great to see two top managers who have had consistent rosters not just rentals battle it out even if it has been a bit predictable from the start of the season. Whitebeard will have both home court advantage and probably a slight enthusiasm advantage but I predict this one to be close. Whitebeard in three.

about 900k salary on 4 bigs ....... insanity

lol only 1.95mil in salary per week... not that far fetched from bryce gibbs championshop team a few seasons ago.

(48924045)

I'm spending up next season and going for these type of ratings :o :o :o

I was hoping that you and Trickster would each buy up rosters like that for your relegation series against each other

why?

its great 2 be top 5 in the league in rebounds, blocks & defence

but the getting relegated part isnt so great :(

cos lord sid is very evil and gets off on watching people shot themselves in the foot =P
i hope he never comes back to the ABBL!
hahahah

all jokes aside.. how come you are content at going back to div2 baxter?

cos lord sid is very evil and gets off on watching people shot themselves in the foot =P
i hope he never comes back to the ABBL!
hahahah

1.95 mill salaries each would render you both financially impotent for quite a few seasons to come.

Not so much them shooting themselves in the foot as it would be them machine gunning each other at close range


Hmm listening to myself maybe I am just a tad evil

I'm sure you are disappointed that neither bryce or I are that stupid (and tremmell and fishy for that matter).

Everyone has their own plan, if you ever make it back to ABBL maybe by then we will have worked out what yours was ....
