Hi everybody,

Merry Christmas!


Wow, West (edit) Adelaide Bloods look a good team, they weren't disgraced last season when they got beaten by eventual league champions HSD in the Semis and since then have spent a couple of mill upgrading their roster, with the big acquisition being 3 days before Christmas when they parted with 1.75 mill for the 145K 26yo PF Liekne.

It is one hell of a tough division to be in, and with one of the games all time greatest Aussie Managers in Mllama present in the other conference, I am resigning myself to the need to down size my roster and to be patient and wait my turn

Prospects of that took a real hit when I drew the short straw and ended up in Div II.1

Looks like you are trying to start a rivalry by disrespecting West Adelaide Bloods and not even getting their team name correct. You have brought that ABBL arrogance with you:)

PS - Thank-you for including me in your post along side the word champions. My ego needs this as I will be the ABBL punching bag this season.

Can you feel the excitement leading into round 1?

I'm after some friendly advice before tomorrow's game regarding ticket pricing. With an arena my size should I have ticket prices at the maximum allowed? I'm thinking the promotion bonus for the first half of the season should help me draw a crowd.

Or do you suggest a lower ticket price?

Thanks for your help and good luck for the season.

I think that they are to high.

With the size of your stadium I would have set them around %70 to %80 of the maximum given your arena size and promotion bonus.

If you had a 20K arena and were venturing into the ABBL for the first time, then id set them at the maximum, but not for Div 2

I remember having had my prices set at 12/35/110/600 give or take depending on how successful my results were. However, I also had a bigger stasdium. You can alway go slightly higher with your stadium, especially first 7 matches. You could also have a look at what the managers in this league have set, and base it of that.

Thanks. I've bumped them down a bit. See how that goes. Cheers

Update - Packed the stadium out so missed out on some takings but not too much. Probably could have left them at the maximum.

So which teams in this league are going to be most favoured by the rule changes?

i.e. Which teams have got established players that they have trained up them selves?

68 points from Kahan has brought a nice surprise with a victory in round 1. I like the new tactic predictor (helps when you guess right).

How'd everyone's round 1 cup draw go? I drew a team ranked 80 higher so won't be too easy but should win. Trying to manage the minutes will be the hardest part.
