For me the two german teams Pioneers and Furpach are the sleepers. Aufhausen had a pretty good draft.

I expect, that the playbook will play a major role this season. Teams who can handle the new formations and the passrush right will have more success.


Thx. Really looking forward to your grade for my draft

The new formations will really play a big role.
But i was really surprised that such a strong team like Aston came up

Aston was in League 1 from season 4-6. They could have been stronger today, but they sold a lot of their draftees.

Didn't realise Monmouth were in financial trouble again. Nope it's not too bad


Rebuilding this year - unlikely to make parity in terms of season record.

And sorry to disappoint, but I'm only a few quid over, and it was planned for.

Got what I wanted from my first two picks - OL - desparately needed some weight up front, and (after a wee bit of training) I'll have it.

Having cleared out most of the aged, the weak, and the overpaid before the end of Season 7, S8 is definitely a rebuild year.

For me I wish there was stability in the engine and playbook - every change has been a step too far for me, but there you go.

I'll buy a pint for anyone who can beat Buffalo this year - he's a master!

Oh, and I forgot to mention - new addition to the family coming very soon here so I DEFINITELY won't be posting predictions for any games at all.

Good luck to whomever takes on that role!

If you need any advice on it (1) take the piss out of everyone you can think of (2) don't over think the predictions (3) if in doubt, use a pun.

Relegation: assuming nobody goes bot then the Cyclones are on an obvious choice having been promoted too soon. I will go for the Raccoons, Motor City and the Pioneers to join then based on their tough divisions.

Very generous of you not to include me, but you should. Based on my schedule (not helped by the inevitable 0-6 division record) I don't see any better than 4-12. 2-14 is more likely.
Consequently I'm going to do the opposite of the last 2 seasons and focus on the supercup and use my league games for exp. and TW for my depth players.

I don't know, if i can repeat a 16-0 season, but I never had such a easy schedule. No Leeds, no Marsz, no Gotham... The Piskots are the only team with a win against me in the past.

That's very generous of you, but I think people are over-rating me a little too much (these new formations are gonna ruin me!). I have a really tough schedule and I'd be delighted with 8-8 but it is going to be more like 6-10 or worse


Next season though...

Wowzers, looked at some of your buys and you've really overspent. The 80 million DL you got I wouldn't have spent more than 5-10 million on!

yeah, i know... let's just say that's my mario williams of FA acqusitions


I just noticed you already had 4 players cut that you spent over 30 million on, and I would guess you will lose another one on Sunday! That really is a mess, and $80 million on a 27 year old - what were you thinking!

I think you'll be surprised how well you do. You have a good squad and should be extremely competitive in this league

As much as I would love to tip Portsmouth to go down I think you should have enough to stay up. You will do better than 0-6 in your division so don't write off your chances just yet!
