Bad week for the U21 team we put more effort in and still lost to the Phillipines. We were badly GDP'd which didn't help and while lots of players had issues our PFs going 7/24 in a LP offence designed for them is a horrible result.

yep was disappointing to see tactics worked against us. It is the first game Phillipines havent gone with a slow offense. With our bench bigs the only talls ready to play, they had a hard game against the mighty phillipines bigs in proficient. We really missed bridgewater there. At the same time youve got Santigoeds who shoots 70% from C, so that makes the offense appear to have worked from there. He just needed some help.

MVPs:
3. Santegoeds- 7-10 fg for 15pts, 6 rebs. Also held his man to 5-14 fgs.
2. Hamburger- top scored in his first u21 game, with 17pts including 2 3s from the SF spot.
1. Grief- 11pts, 3 rebs, Grief held his own.

Next up we have world number 1 USA, the draw certainly does not get any easier at this stage. Ill be contacting all managers today regarding game shape and training.

USA defeat Australia 91-70 (31235)

It was a well fought out game, but we were well off the Americans in terms of class. I was amazed Team USA didnt use a fast pace, given they are battling out a spot for the semi final and need percentage. There is now a real battle going on for a finals birth, and just a shame we are not a part of it.

MVP Votes:
3 votes- Doran. (18pts on 8-11fg, 5 boards, 1 assist, 15.5 rating) in 15 mins game time!
2 votes- Grief (12pt, 2 assists, 2 rebs, 2 stls, 15.0 rating).
1 vote- Santegoeds (9 rebs, 7pts, 1 ass, 1 stl, 1 blk, 15.0 rating).

Next week is our final world cup game vs China. It is a dead rubber since one of USA and Lithuania will be fighting it out for 4th in their last match.

bad luck - good effort tis season though

the Points per 100 shots are interesting. Base Offence is always a good offence is use to see where deficiencies/strengths are offensively.

Well this was always going to be a difficult task but what you have achieved both this season and especially last season has been very impressive. Certainly a highly succesful tenure. I assume we keep the curent team for the last meaningful game (as it does have a large impact on our rankings) but then will be starting to look at next season's players?

That's the aim, yes. I've been in close contact with players for next season, it certainly is a strong one.
