I think not.
I guess the person who you have ton convince the most is your own self.
This game (and I mean RZA not the Conference Championship game) is about management and there are right now a few path which your team can go.
If some just don't fit with the planning of next season, well I guess it makes sense to make them the least likely ones.
It happened in the past with other managers and will happen in the future.
But ... if you like to get rid of you players, why not fire them NOW and save some money?


Good point, looking at the Runners results this season, the likelyhood to win the monday Supercup game isn't very high. But in a single game with luck and day form, I may have a 20% chance.
Afterwards I will cut the expensive ones and will try to sell the good one's, that still have a low salary, even if the market is difficult at season end.

I can't say I'm not disappointed. Again. You win some, you lose some - good luck to those still in it.


You played a fantastic game. Except the two interceptions, which are always a bit of luck, I couldn't stop your offense. Even your Backup QBs had completion rates of nearly 80% and your running game also work against 5 DLer.

I think you had a small glitch in your playbook. At the end of the game, you should have gone for the 4th and 2.

Additionally you should consider rechecking your defense tactic. I think you could have easily smashed me in this game. Next season it will be two wins for you. Drop me a PN, f you need a hint on your defense.

This game is really weird or I just still don't get it.
Last season I really felt ready to compete in the Elite League and it was just disappointing. So I decided for a full rebuild around my young QB and got rid of 21 top players with ending contracts. Funnily this is my best season in RZA now, even if my Supercup season ends with the expected loss against the Runners on Monday. It feels like there is not just a day form factor, there seems to be also some season form...
To finalize the rebuild I will reduce my roster to the minimum at season end loosing basically the remaining starters except a few exceptions on positions, where I don't have enough young players yet. On the one hand I don't want to give up a bowl opportunity, but on the other I don't think it would be fair to steal a much more competitive team the elite promotion spot. Would it be tanking to play the Conference Championchip with the backups on the friendly playbook?


I completely agree with you about the weirdness. I felt I had a much better team last season but couldn't crack the divisional title. This season after many retirements and a decision to cut my squad to basic numbers I felt sure I would do much worse. In fact I did better, won the title and only just lost the playoff game. Like you I saw this season as building for the future so was totally surprised at my success. (I even posted at the start of the season that I expected to do badly).

I don't think I would have been ready for Elite and was also contemplating something similar to you if I had made it to the CC. However, I hadn't made up my mind definitely. I am convinced though that there needs to be another stepping stone between 1.1 and Elite.

I totally agree, especially for Monarchs 1, there is far too less competition

Good game, gatorfan1.
After the 1 half I was thinking that this is not my teams game, but 2. half did turn the tide to my favor.

Interesting that the Bruisers did lose ....

Well, any way, we will play Elite next season again, together with the Pirates.

They never seemed very active but still a shame to lose another human.

Overall numbers are a bit up, but that is normal during NFL season.

Thanks mate, good game to you as well. I dont know how my team gave up that lead, but I am a bit relieved at the same time. Due to retiring players, I know Elite would have been a very rough time for my guys Best of luck mate!
