i am seasons off having a crack at the title, got some young talent to train up first. most of the teams all have that 100k monster centre but I will not crack and buy one. they dont seem to dominate like their salary suggests

what type of players do you all think make the biggest impact to a game, PG or a monster C or well rounded guys?

I agree with you on the monster C. They take up too much salary, and they don't perform up to par. I would go for the pg, although I'm not sure how good well-rounded players are. Interesting league full of a lot of pros. Hopefully I can perform well.

Haha i thought the exact same thing Bains, couldnt believe it haha

Big Dell. My finest work in BB.

Would love to bring him home but he's a bit pricey. Would love to retire him at his hometown club.

The man is a walking double double in the SF position.

2nd most expensive player I've sold at $4.3m. Only just behind Kosac at $4.5m.

The Blue Preview!
Season 21 is upon us.. Pancakes has gone back to the ABBL where he belongs. The Rampaging Marmots also farewelled Div 2.1 last season, but headed back to division 3 after finishing in 8th.
2 new teams join the conference from Division 3, with The Tornado's, crowned champions of 3.1 last season, and the Skyhook Dreamers securing Bot promotion.

Yarra Park Bears
The bears, led by the infamous PeteVas, return to Div 2.1 for their ninth season in the league! In season 20, they got off to a slow start dropping their first 2 games, but then went on an incredible 20-0 run to put some fear and pressure into league favorites Pancakes. The Bears sold up at the end of last season, and have yet to declare their intentions for season 21.. Once they make their move however, they could be an unstoppable force in the Big 8!
Rival : JW City Bulls
JW City Bulls
Led by JW himself, the Bulls had a great campaign in season 20 finishing 3rd in the Big 8 with a 16-6 record! The Bulls showed a competitive streak throughout the season, but were just outclassed against the big guns in the league.. They have made 2 key purchases this off-season, in the hope of going 1-2 places better this season! The Bulls at this stage look good for another solid playoff season, and could challenge for league honors!
Rival : Adams Guns
CCCPBA (Aust Div.)
Led by the mad Russian Vladdy, CCCPBA return to div 2.1 for their 4th season, after finishing 4th in the Big conference last season. They are a young team on the rise, boasting U21 starlet from season 20 Darren Lonergan on their roster! They will be looking to not only improve their record this season, but get some sweet vengeance on new Great 8 promotee, Gisborne Gladiators!
Rival : From Way Downtown
From Way Downtown
Led by the infamous hittingtreys FWD returns for their 2nd season in the league.. They got off to a great start last season, and once securing a spot on the roster outside relegation, sold up and held onto 5th place! Most suspect they are cashed up, and will need to spend some coin before the season kicks off if they are to improve on last seasons 5th place finish!
Rival : CCCPBA
Lewisness
Awesomeness returns for his 2nd seasons in the league, after winning their relegation battle over The Pwnage last season. A young solid core is supported by a troupe of wiley veterans, and after a season of building up, they could have the cash reserves to make an impact this season, but will be hoping to finish with a greater record than last season 7-15
Rival : CCCPBA
Adams Guns
The Guns fired blanks last season as they finished in 7th spot in the league. In the off season they have declared their intentions, replacing their blanks with live ammunition bringing in key players, and making bids on possible future stars.. The relegation battle is not an option for this team in S21, they are targetting a solid playoff berth.
National Representatives : Peter Morgan (Scotland SG) Svibor Vidas (Aus PF)
Rival : JW City Bulls
The Tornado
The Tornado left a path of destruction in 3.1 last season, finishing with a 21-1 record before whipping up a storm in the playoffs against the Melbourne Ravens. The Tornados have done it in style to this point, but will need to bring in some serious players if they are to survive Div 2, whilst at the same time building up their arena to the required level
Rival : Adams Guns
Skyhook Dreamers
The Dreamers won the bot promotion battle last season and are looking to stay in Div 2 to prove they deserve to be there. Led by French u21 starlet they had a perfect 22-0 season. They have added to their inside game in the off season, and have a decent

Dreamers rivals are Lewisness!

Sorry i tried to fit all in 1 post but didnt work out :D I was surprised we only had 2 national representatives in the blue side, both Adams Guns, even tho we did have a couple of U21 players last season!

Should be a very interesting season! Some teams have declared their intentions early, whilst others are still holding their cards close to their chests!

For miine, Yarra Park Bears are favorite to take out the conference title, with Adams Guns being the big movers up the table! Tornado probably has a really tough battle ahead to avoid releagation, but anything can happen across 22 games!

Good luck blue boys, lets show these Reds who's the boss :D

nice write up Skyhookz.

I'm looking forward to a good test first up :) Can wait!!

Haha, it is my intention Matty, Bains ain't getting no easy rides here.. Or will he.. lol

i dont need an easy ride from you SchaBoom... i will make it an easy ride!

not running that 190k C anymore i noticed. shame because you might need him in round 2

Dreamers rivals are lewisness

This wil be fun!
And a nice conference preview btw. I hope to secure 6th or 5th position.

Much more rounded in all positions now mate, will be interesting to see if your boys have what it takes... Doubtful :P

@Whompas - Big Cs can't do what they have to do on offense without a great passing PG (LI) or a good passing players in 1,2,3 (BO and PTB) Reckon I put more money on the lower positions unless you have all the above elements, speaking from experience :D

yeha agreed, i am investing some training into 2 young high potential kids atm. I have trained a fairly promising PG who was u/21 for brasil last season. He needs more work but think I may need to sell him and buy an established gaurd.

he has some god starting skills if anyone is keen???????????
