Thanks for doing these. I'm interested to see what shakes out in the Asian division. It seems like all of the challengers to Mumbai are in different stages of their rebuild/decline but it's impossible to determine which one can explode into a legit playoff threat in 2125.

Once again, underestimating Melbourne.

[claphamsa]

i will be way better than these estimates...but i think we should draft off them now!
