I am not lying

Have a look at my roster and see "Xavier Rodger, Salary: $45 K" and have a look at the Games box score. There is X. Rodger in that lineup!!!

But will give me another chance to refine my team. I am looking forward to the new season

MM in 2 as I don't expect him to tank the middle (home) game. Sorry hippo but his starting 5 are just unreal, pretty much all of his money is in that starting lineup and he proved last night that game shape doesn't matter too much to his team.. I would wonder how that team would go if he had all his starters at Strong or Prof GS..

this is an extremely peculiar situation we find ourselves in. without either favourites promoting the logjam thickens. if we we get a div 2 demotee who has the power to dominate we may be in some serious trouble.

Well first I must say huge bad luck to the Beasts. So many injuries and your best player fouls out. I am no sure the best team did win.

I did have some issues myself, Hutch my best SG was out injured and didn't play at all and Diakite my best player also fouled out early - but he often does that.

The funny thing was you made the massive comeback after Neil fouled out and those other guys were injured.

So sorry for the ACT blaze, I knew MM were tough but I thought you would win.

Now it is just Many Men and me, not liking my chances considering to beat the Beasts I needed

1) His beat player to foul out early
2) Him to forget to play his best big man
3) Multiple injuries to his starters

and with all that I just hung on for a tight 6 point win. Sorry Neeber, you were robbed.

If Beasts > Hippos and ACT > Beasts and now Many Man > ACT then I wouldn't be backing me.

The way I see this finals series Many Men is better than me at probably every position. (I notice he is online right now planning...)

It was a tough match Blaze, I wasn't confident at all. I thought I was done late in the third and got a bit nervous in the dying minutes when Durrstein hit 2 threes in a row, I thought here is the late comeback...but thankfully for me, I got it done from the line in the last few and held on.

Time to get on the bus and take the MM to see the Hippos! Looking forward to the challenge.

MM hoping for a competitive win! GL Hippos

This was our SF lineups

Many Men
PG Alfred Smith 23k + training
SG Mahu Pugh 14k + training
SF Fabrizio Cozzolino 27k
PF Plepan Gurbardhi 21k
C Moric Zamiška 65K

Hippos
PG Ashley Garbett 23k
SG Lucio Alarcón 11k + training
SF Paul Presley 5k + training
PF Ndongo Diakite 26k
C Louis Hainbuche 38k

Looks like a strong lead in starters to Many Men especially at SF which was big against ACT. I no doubt have a deeper bench with about 6 that can contribute to his about 2-3, but I'm not sure how much of a factor they will be unless there are more injuries and foul outs and I think I have used up all my luck there.

I will be going all out to win but it will be an uphill battle.

If I don't win, if a strong team like the Dons or Naker Virus does come down and ACT and Beasts are still powerhouses it will be a very tough season next season.

Looking at those lineups it looks like I may have a slightly stronger starting 5, I doubt there is much diff between our bigs, so as you said, looks like the SF may be the spot I'm stronger.

Shoud be very interesting!

Thanks mate.

Unless I promote I won't be able to support this roster next season after the salary changes go through, so there will be a massive fire sale if we lose!

It's a nice competitive division to be in though, so it's not all bad if I stay.
