I predict that the ABBL series will go to either Whitebeard or WA

Frankly, I think the teams are relatively evenly matched, but HCA is against us big 8ers, so reckon whoever makes it from our side will struggle to take out the finals

Happy to be wrong though

Clearly you have taken pity on me.

What was the reason for selling Gary Lawrance?

I'll be tanking and training so it was a waste having him on my roster.

true enough... but he would be handy to have in Div2.

goodluck and hope you come back to the abbl asap.

why didn't you keep him and Ton to get you through div 2, not like they wont be 2/5th's of your starting 5 when you come back to ABBL? Lot's of work to build a Lawrence from scratch.

Unless of course you are planning on doing a Iwen in which case you should have started Ton at a lower price ;)

Its 4 pm and only 9 hours left to acquire a player before the playoffs and relegation series.

Hard to believe that the only two managers who havnt been on line today are Datzilla and Yoda.

Datzila may be completely unaware of the injury to Duffman, and Yoda would have been all over this injury and its implications and written it up accordingly.

Shocked that only mllama is having a dash at winning the championship.

I can understand Dire not having a red hot go as his mob is already into the B3 games courtesy of the cup but what about Bryce and Whitebeard?

The likes of Shanmag must be licking her lips at the prospect of bouncing back to the ABBL in a seasons time with millions to spend, with the prospect that if this trend of the experienced managers not chasing championships, that she will have a clear path to glory.

By "not having a go" do you mean not going way over my 'salary cap' just for the playoff run? Are you not allowed to compete for the title without rentals anymore?

Look its admirable to not use rentals and I personally think that changes need to made so that the use of rentals is not so convenient and cost effective.

Perhaps I should have used the phrase "win at all costs" rather than "not having a go".

I tend to have an over developed competitive streak in myself and just dont understand why teams who have a chance of winning dont employ a win at all costs attitude.

Perhaps the financials of some of the higher ranked experienced teams does not allow it and if so you might all be easy prey for the likes of Shanmag, Yoda and Iwen in a couple of seasons time
