Great thread guys. I feel a lot more knowledgeable after reading this. At the moment I've been trying to soak up as much information as possible and it's things like this that make it a lot easier for me
Will be looking forward to the next write up after tomorrow nights games.

Round 5 Upsets Summary

ABBL

Only 1 ABBL team lost this week. The Canberra Crushers (5) lost 102 - 109 to a DIVISION 4 team!!! Windsor As, ranked 255 in the world. Now that is shameful. Shame shame shame.

Div II

My old pals the City Celtics (73) beat fellow Div IIer, Eggplantpopolopolous (54) 84 - 99 ...Team name of the week winner there
ACT Blaze(151) 92 - 87 High School Drop-outs(10 )
Haggards(30) 49 - 115 Stone Slashers(34)
Chirny Lakers(208) 102 - 58 Aussie Battlers (33)

Div III

Svetties(114) 126 - 131 Lewisness(143)
ChelseaBlue(162) 86 - 58 Massive Ballers(94)
Melbourne Redbacks(86) 73 - 74 Mangoloids(134) - Ouch 1 point! Interesting last minute of the game, where nobody can bloody score!

Div IV

All the DIV 4 teams either beat someone higher, or appropriately lost.


So there are still 2 division IV teams in the final 32, 12 Division III teams, 12 Division II teams and only 6 Division I teams remaining. 2 of those Div I teams are playing each other, so tere is a good chance here for an upset of a non-Div I team winning the cup. I am unfortunately out, having lost in this round i just reviewed. I had a good run. Final 64, for a Div III team is pretty good. Still.. *sniff*

I made the mistake of playing TIE in that game and only playing my regular starters on the bench or not at all.
Thought i'd have enough to get the W, but congrats to Mangoloids for getting the W. Disappointing loss at this stage, but there's always next season.

Most important did you see who their best player was? My old draft pick Wazza Tickle! My guys are spreading everywhere like a virus, but not a Naker Virus.

Great work with the summaries. Thanks for taking up where I left off.
