A key game this week is back in III.1

the tornado (17-2) vs. Tannums Tantrums (19-0)

This will be the Tantrums biggest before PO's. We know a fair bit about the Tantrums. But their opponents are relatively unknown throughout BB Australia. They are managed by Crazy Dave and have a country rank of 63, so are obviously doing something right. This is their 10th season in III.1, where they have been unable to make it any further than the semi-finals. A career highlight is their final 32 appearance in the Season 17 National Cup.

The will need to be able to push the Tantrums in this game if they have a hope of progressing past that semi-final mark.

The player to watch in this one for the Tantrums is their spanish guard Abel Araluce, who has averaged 22.5 PPG vs the tornado in 4 previous outings. He is in the kind of form where he might be the difference, averaging 23.2 PPG in only 34.8 MPG in his last 5 games. The proficient GS will only help his teams cause.

Adalberto Tomé will be the key player for The Tornado, in the past he has been devastating vs. Tannums Tantrums. In 5 prior meetings between these sides Tomé has averaged and incredible 23.0 PPG, 7.4 RPG, 4.6 APG, 1.8 SPG. If he can perform at his best the Tornado might stand a chance.

However i think the Tantrums will stay undefeated and in with a chance for that bot promotion spot. HCA will be too much for their opponents to overcome.

My Prediction: Tannums Tantrums by 18

yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay 20 wins in a row :)

Very impressive. But without win number 26 it means nothing.

Yeah I know, spend the next week looking for the player that will make that a probability.

gee I wold love to be in your league! i would promote for sure then!

How do you figure?
Your team isn't so much stronger than any of the contenders from here.

III.5 is where you want to be if you want an easy promote

Great work Bainsy!

Especially love the interview with Akuma were he talks me up a bit. Dont worry Akuma I clearly haven't bought anyone in as I am bleeding so much money at the moment. If I don't win promote this year it could be a long time III.6 for me as I will have to sell up and save for a year or two.

So here is hoping I win the championship and you can promote through the bot cleanup.

Southern Breakers look alright but there is a league somewhere and there was a guy in chat from there and he pointed out that the top team has all their players in inept-respectable game shape. That is the league you want to be in. I also spoke to Vis Maior and he will be announcing "The Decision" in the next few days as soon as he organises a time with ESPN.

Just spent the day reading through this tread and have to say it's been great fun XD

I will continue the support with +1 every day :)

Nonetheless I think Bainsy should do more write-ups for our own league, although it would be no surprise the big 8 will win it all this season.

yeh III.5 with the Sydney Sea Eagles
