It's definitely wide open at the moment, with several teams on 2-1. I was a bit surprised to lose my game, mostly because Titans played TIE. Guess I got used to winning during my exodus in Div III...

Good to be back in some genuine competition again though!

Yeah, yours was a surprise result too.

I wonder if it was a freak thing or something to do with tactics.

Neither...teams often underestimate the well-rounded team that is the Titans. :-)

Agreed 100% Matty..

I have a poor history against the Titans, I have won 4 out of 15 and 2 of the 4 were Titans tanking for cup. I couldn't sworn on quite a number of occasions my lineup on paper looked stronger and even better game shape but their is an X-factor to the Titans, the intangible thing this game presents, team cohesion.

I know it isn't supposed to be a "recognised" factor but it just seems the better teams line-ups and strategies seem to carry them through more often then not.

Robhoe, did you set for TIE because you were confident you could win easily with HCA? Or were you actually trying to gain enthusiasm because you thought you might lose no matter what you did?

I'm just curius to know if this was a lucky win or one that was planned and expected.

Not sure what more I can do to improve my team to make it worth for a title run this season. A loss vs TIE has me really doubting any chance I thought I may have had!

To me it has always made sense to TIE the first game at home when everyone has the same GS and the HCA can be best exploited.

Hah. His team may be sound but his mind...?

@ Rob, your fans are the worst in Div II...no doubt about it!

@ Violator, don't throw in the towel just yet mate; your team looks good. Need to give it time to adjust and perform imo.

Thanks mon. :D

I told the big boys I had done all my aims.

Make D1.
Have an all West Indies & Aussie team.
Train Thad Haldey (draft pick) to the NT.
Get players on West Indies Rep teams (had 7 NT players before sellup)

So now I have a new aim, something I think has never been done before. I'll let you know how it goes. ;)

Yeah I know, not throwing it in. Guess I just gotta get used to actual competition again. Titans do have the twin tower combo, the two highest ratings in the league to date!
