And in an awesome scheduling result for me I get to play Rimmers in the 4th round...who I have only beaten 4 times out of 17 matchups all time, and I can't recall any recent wins at all. Seems I may be in for an early exit again...sigh.

Well that was an unexpected result. CT against an ABBL team, double overtime and won somehow.

Huge congratulations to The Black Dragons for making it to the semi finals in just their 6th season of BB.
If you don't draw me in the semis, I hope you pull off a huge upset and win through to the final.
If you do draw me, then I hope that doesn't happen :) but still, great job on getting this far.

Tannum Tantrums vs Hard Ball Gets tonight for the trophy. This season the tournament stung me in the form of a CT from a division II side, but it's also given me gifts in the form of both of these teams conceding games to be recently for the sake of their cup campaign. But I digress, seems like a pretty even contest judging by league form, maybe advantage HBG but only slightly if it is.

Yeah congrats to Hard Ball Gets - they handled me pretty easily.

Seems I need to try something different to get over the hump. Pretty safe bet you will have home court so you have a great chance of taking out the league title at least.

Hard Ball's B3 form was something I hadn't considered when assessing the strength of both teams. They finished the group play 7-1 in a competition I went 0-8 in last season whilst legitimately trying. Honestly, if I 22-0 the league it'll be in spite of my team strength rather than because of it, I know Laga'aia has blossomed to MVP form this season but I still have reason to be wary of my opposition come the play-offs.

Way too close for comfort tonight. Drew an ABBL team away, and HBG tanked the league more than I did so garbage time threw my minutes off. In trying to save some players for the quarters I go down by as much as 15 to Dark Passenger, and the comeback got hindered by the GE deciding that 17 and even 20 JS isn't enough to make threes. Was 1-21 before the luck correction kicked in.

On the other hand, I caught a break in Manchester's injury making Duffield the effective starter in a situation where I ultimately needed him to actually win the game. In that context maybe DP was the one who got screwed by the GE. All I know is that if I had that one back, I would've gone normal instead of TIE.

How about with JJacks drawing Glenvale Cheaters in the quarters we are guaranteed to have a Div 2 side into the semi finals. How often would that happen?

Almost every season a Div 2 team makes the semis. Out of the last 13 seasons, 10 times a Div 2 team made semis (but never 2 in one season), 1 time a Div 3 team made semis and only twice has it been all ABBL. The last time a non ABBL made the final was Season 35. Seasons 2 and 7 have been the only time a non ABBL has won the Cup.

I stand corrected.
