Who would have thought at the start of the season that both 6th and 7th in the Great 8 would be able to survive


Wasnt just the start of the season that I was reading posts on how the teams in the relegation zone in the Great 8 would struggle against the huge bank vaults of their likely competition from the Big 8.

Hadders is obviously a quality manager and Datzilla has been cruelled by an injury.

I obviously got lucky with a couple of good acquisitions and sales towards the end of the season and was especially lucky that Shanmag took pity on me.

I expect her, Yoda & Iwen to come back to the ABBL and firmly entrench themselves there.

Datzilla will have a major decision to make about his roster as the salary of Duffman is almost unsustainable in Div 2

Now that the regulation season is over the MVP will be adjudged.

Not that Im biased or anything but Pedrosa has had a consistant season and matched it with players who are paid twice as much.

He probably wont get a vote, so who will win it?

Pretty rare a player outside the playoffs even gets a vote.

Carvalho would probably be favourite I guess

I wouldn't write DFBS off just yet, he just needs to sneak a win at home in game one, and he should have Duffill back for game 3. Anything can happen yet, but ti did make the relegation series alot more interesting :P


As he hasnt logged on since before saturdays game, Datzilla wont even have a line up set for tonights game.

Lets just hope that hes okay

If he doesn't log on before hand, let's hope he has a standard line up set... which doesn't include Duffill...

Yet other teams who are in the playoffs with the funds available to take out the ABBL title aren't willing to budge a cent since they are content with finishing as non-title contenders.



I am content with staying up this year but i had a red hot crack at the cup. If i beat BLS (5 point loss) i would have taken out the cup - i added 190k of wages to try and take him down but it didn't happen. yes i still have a very hand bankroll to play with but it wasn't worth taking a shot at the title this year as i had 3 guys injured heading into the playoffs and i'm training up an MVP 20yo that will be a force in a season or 2's time.

No point in blowing my wad too early.

I make no bones about the fact that i want to have an ABBL trophy and a Aussie Cup title on my wall. It just might be something that takes me a few seasons to get.

I regret to conclude the following

Datzilla must be dead and if not then hes in hospital recovering from a heart attack and will have another heart attack when he finds out about the injury to Duffman.

Anyone saving up to buy Duffman for when his team goes bot ?

I don't think they're evil at all - just very active BB users that know what they are doing
