You see, poor decisions like that are the reason you are no longer the coach.

play duffman damn you
DUFFMAN!!!!

:)

Was tempted to buy duff man and torture him for 2 seasons :p

That was clearly an oversight

Any news from scouting? Keen to see if you think there should be some changes to the side or some new young players on the verge.

Well there's currently two fringe players that one will make the team while the other wont and it'll come down to who has better game shape and if we need a guard or a big in the team. These players are your boy foster who is for sake and whitebeards guard shishvev. Both will make the team next year with one or two pops and would be replacing Cummings and Mccarthut or Mansfield

On the Sf point it looks like in a season or 2 we should have two legit SFs in the side.

Good work mate. Glad to hear. Sure the last week has been crazy.

Great start !! Great win :), over us :( hope someday I'll manage a team like that of yours!

After what you have done to our cricket team, never!

Game 1 of the Asian Championship

Australia headed to Taiwan for their first game against India. With many of the players being fans of the australian cricket side, they were out for blood hoping to get some respect back for the country. This wasnt going to be a hard task with the Indian basketball team not quite as good as there cricket team.

Australia went into the game under new coach Brooks, who was looking for a win in his first game at the helm. He had kept media quite during the week and told the player to do the same.

In the pre game shoot around you could see that the coach had opted to go for an outside based team bringing in Duffill and Vidas to play at the SF spot. This was probably the winning move for the team.

The first quarter saw a seesawing on the scoreboard with both teams going basket for basket and neither getting on a moment against the other team. The start of the second was the same until a scoring out burst from the aussies who managed to find another gear and a score 32 points for the quarter but it was really the defense that was a spectacular with them managing to keep the indians to just 15 points. This would set the tone for the third quarter where the lead was increased 27 points. This would be the finally winning margin of the game as the aussies just traded baskets for the third team.

After the game one of the reporters caught up with player of the game Shaun McArthur and asked him for his thoughts
"it was a great game we came out here to get the win and show we ment business and that second quarter said it all, i reckon it will be good for the coach aswell who seems to be like gillard in the opinion polls at the moment"
when asked about his own game he responded with, " It was a good game i just made the right decision and was seeing passes before they were there and my shooting was great shooting 50%, it just felt good though im suprised i beat Issac for the player of the game"

MVP voting as done by the officals

3 Shaun McArthur
Played a great all round game shooting 50% from the field for 17point and also collecting the 8 assits to go with his 2 steals and kept his opponent to 9/20 Fg and 0/4 3pg

2 Deion Isaac
The big man had a solid game collecting a double double with 14 rebounds and 24 points the three turnovers were costly though

1 Kyle Duffill
shot an incredible 66% collected 9 boards and was great on the defensive end

There next up opponent is Thailand tactics will posted on friday after a game shape update


sorry interent was slowed for the last week so havent been able to get on a computer to do everything has been done by phone recently

Well there was a time when I use to be fan of Australian side(around 6years ago), but in my opinion IPL raised us to new level of cricket in last 3-4 years.
Same as that for us in bb, you laid a great foundation and I'm working to maintain it and the results & team look better from now.
