Hi there everyone, yeah I am up for another season. Although I am still focusing on training up TT so I am not sure whether I will be getting a whole lot better competitively just yet. Still, I think I am closer than last season, and thanks to Naker I am not last ;)

Looks like we will have the two div league proposal at the end of each season, but I think this model is a good one. More players more fun eh? Good to build a stronger Aussie community too.

OI :P lol

I like the idea of more teams with 4 on each team, because then each week it makes the games matter more. Where as at the moment half the games are against your own side. Might be worth trying. :)

Hello boys and girls,

I've been chatting to Iwen and as he said i wouldn't mind getting on board if you guys are happy to have me, I've been playing in the BBB Private Leagues for a few seasons now but the games are at like 3am and a pain so gonna give that a rest for a while as I'd rather play with a few active aussies instead even if the standard is lower.

I understand I'll rape the shit out of u all so if I'm gonna mess up the whole system and evenness then just let me know its not big issue, don't feel like you cant tell me to bugger off...

Perhaps if we create an artificial salary cap for this league? Then anyone can join, including C-Cat. So we could come to an agreed value, and teams can't set a lineup where salary exceeds a certain amount. For example, perhaps a 300k salary cap where the 5 starters salaries count 100% and the backups count as 25%. This total cannot exceed 300k for the lineup. This would mean everything is fair.
Just an idea.

I'm not so bothered, seldom do I get to play an ABBL team with my full strength team. It'd be fun to see how far behind my team is.

Maybe teams can nominate 1-3 players to remove from your lineup so it gets slightly more even?

Can you smell what the Hobos are cooking... oh wait its just Roger. (18085274)

lol well at least a couple of guys are up for a challenge!

Realistically a lot of the time i wont be playing a full strength lineup / regular tactics I'll be trying to things and experimenting a bit.

But honestly guys if your that worried about me that you wanna start bringing in rules or caps etc... then just say so. Really I'm not that fussed and seems like you guys have something decent going here so if I'm gonna be a hassle / cause issues then i can go else where.


P.S. iwen, no one can stop Couto Costa, Couto Costa just relaxes from time to time...

hahah I can't wait for you to join so i can test out my team against yours and see how I'm doing. I havent even had the chance to play against a TOP tier ABBL team yet. and cups dont count since i just TIE and tank it with my bench players anyways when i do draw an ABBL team.

For our league to accommodate teams like c-cats we will definitely need a promote/demotion system and also a few refinements or else c-cat will just simply wipe the floor clean with every team he faces.

So maybe have that 4 or 5 team mini league thing within the 16 team PL.
eg.
team 1
c-cat (abbl), immortals (div3), jw allstars (div3), possum pete (div3).
team 2
goldfish, iwen, koops, cowboys. (div2.1)
team 3
seagulls, datzilla, sas, naker (div2 allstars)
team 4
u get the idea...

this way even though c-cat will get 16-0, it will still be a competitive league and he will have to carry the div3 guys either thru coaching tactics or simply being awesome with 16 wins.
