Poll up. I've gone with the 8 playoffs teams from last season in order of regular season record. LIDL and Bournemouth Drunkers could have an argument for being there over a few of the choices though.
Given there's 4 promoted teams on the red side and only one on the blue side will it mean the best few teams on the red side can take advantage and end up with the best overall record?
Does anyone give Tide of Fire a decent challenge this year? 3 seasons in a row they've managed to win the finals in the first two games. Also current WR: 10. That's impressive. Your highest Vecx?
How many of the promoted teams stay up? (I'm setting the over/under at 1.5. Place your bets...)

Team salaries (at week 2 Sunday):
BC Žalgiris - $ 812 273
Arsenal 98 $ 768 628
Bournemouth D. $ 742 999
CWA FURY $ 717 209

Going to stick my neck out now and say that this season won't see four teams relegated from the red side.

Already looking like the most competitive season ever, especially on our side. Three games and no unbeaten team and no team without a win, and only one of each on the blue side. Plenty of the promoted teams looking quite good too. (I'm looking at you especially hono! but the Fury have started well too)

Actually: for once CWA were neither relegated or promoted last season! I agree with the rest of the post though.
Tide somehow lost twice already when they only lost 4 times all of last season. Bournemouth at 2-1 when in the relegation places last season is a nice start for them, if they beat Zalgiris on Tuesday those two will be looking strong for two of the playoff places already.

I've just updated the OP with team salaries if anyone wants to go back and look at that. If we call LIDL and Donny a draw, 4 and a half of the highest salaries are on the blue side...We've actually been very even conference vs conference record-wise recently, so maybe our side are just not spending smartly.

I was looking at the list on buzzer manager last night and noticed how much more the blue side is spending. I'm not too concerned about being near the bottom of the list.
