You know I was just thinking about that
in terms of monetary reward, it seems to me winning div 2 and the national tournament is more beneficial than winning the ABBL.

A div 2 win gets you the 1 mil promotion money, plus half of a seasons worth of outrageous ticket prices cos the fans love you for promoting. By most peoples calculations, this results in around 4 to 5 million, possibly 6 if you get a real good draftee.

However, if money was not the objective, there is no greater glory than winning the ABBL.
I know why whitebeard is called whitebeard - hes actually Phil Jackson - gonna go for 11 rings!!

I did contemplate tanking.

But I'd like to try and stay as long as I can.
I think I should be ok to compete with my current starting 5 atleast for the first part of the season, then look to upgrade a few pieces around allstar week when I should have a lot of Coins Collected. :)

It's scary having Akuma as the other promotee on my side since his roster was around almost double mine to make it here.
hmmm

I paid 1.8 for him just last season, so a big loss, but cant complain as he was dropping massively in skills

Actually $1.7 two seasons ago but we get your point, he is a special player.

It was never a sustainable roster, basically just a short term thing to beat Sid in our div 2 finals, considering he was running a rental roster that was close to 1m as well.

I would imagine the only people in Australia that would be able to sustain a 1m+ roster are top tier ABBLers

No I am not aware of any problems regarding "setting a lineup". I can change my tactics and lineup just fine.

After you set your lineup, make sure you press the "send orders" button. But I assume you already know that cos you have been around for a long time LOL

Only thing I can think of is that you got the positions to "play defense" incorrect.

cheers
Koops

Wish i had more cash to spend theres some decent older aussie talent on the market at the moment. Weipeng , Degas or bin Salim would be useful.
