You forgot to add that in season 12 he threw two games to Chumunga and went all out in two games against the Seagulls when the two teams were fighting to avoid relegation thereby sending the Seagulls back to division III.

As for Pearshouse I don't know if he has had a lot of downpops but at age 33 he shouldn't have but for a guy that has played 45 competitive National Team games and 16 National Team scrimmages as well as abing a star for both Pancakes with Jam and Cream and Koopasaurus he isn't that impressive.

Compared to Lawrance who is on the same salary he is behind in primaries, but the secondaries are way behind, way more than 20 stat points. Basically he is a good rebounder but besides the OD nothing else is impressive. And how does he only have Experience: proficient?

Must admit to being a bit bored today.

Didnt realise that; Yarra Park Bears, The Meteors, Razzle Dazzles, Doncaster Flames, Unbeatables and the Villians all had such long histories and then there is also Pheonix Five and Tasmanian Eagles

I know all of them except the Villians. Who are they?

Here's my thoughts on the all star game voting, just looking at the top 4 nominated for each position:

Big 8

PG: Hahi clearly the best. Could throw a blanket over the next three, though Goodall's efficiency probably got him over the line

Verdict: About right

SG: Anczkowski has shot poorly, but leads the league in assists, so probably gets in on that basis. I'd probably have Howarth ahead of Maicuru as backup, on the basis of his increased scoring and efficiency, but its tight, so I can forgive the selectors for that one

Verdict: Close to right

SF: Would probably switch Phung to starter, but him and Krajina have clearly been the best two performed SFs, so no real arguments here

Verdict: Fine

PF: Could argue either way about who starts, but the two picked are the best two by a fair margin.

Verdict: Fine

C: Kremer is the best here. Next 3 are close, but Fang looks a reasonable pick

Verdict: Fine

Great 8

PG: Asvestas is the best here. The backup is an issue - with 28% shooting, Jang would be a candidate for worst performed player in the league thus far. Calugus should have got the nod here

Verdict: bit of a mistake

SG: Bergman head and shoulders in front. Puac hasn't been great, but there are no real alternatives here

Verdict: Fine

SF: Wazza and Santos have been the best two. Would have started Santos personally, but not a huge mistake - Wazza has been good.

Verdict: Close to right

PF: Astaman clearly #1. Statswise, Carvalho should be in ahead of Lawrence - probably a victim of playing a fair bit of time at C. But given the relative ladder positions of the two teams, justice is probably done here.

Verdict: Fine

C: Galvin starting is fine. Bordeinu has been good, but he's only played 3 league games, not sure how he gets in. Quanrong has played great this season, and should be in the game, and arguably starting.

Verdict: Bit of a mistake

All things considered, I think the selections are pretty much spot on. That said, with 5 selections, I'm slightly biased

Here's my thoughts on the all star game voting, just looking at the top 4 nominated for each position:

First time in seasons that the selectors have a legitimate reason for not picking Pedrosa for the SF spot

I think Quarong missing is basically down the fact he has only played one league game a week due to th crazy cup draw I have had. Very happy with Astaman & Bergie getting the nod though at least

You cannot rate posts by the same person more than once every 12 hours.

But I theoretically think that was a great writeup, well done. I really don't know the ABBL players this season as well as I should, I actually knew my opponents better in division II.

You forgot to add that in season 12 he threw two games to Chumunga and went all out in two games against the Seagulls when the two teams were fighting to avoid relegation thereby sending the Seagulls back to division III.

This snippet of info made me chuckle :-)

It made me cry, for months...but that which does not kill you makes you stronger. Well that is what Bryce keeps on telling me anyway.

Some nice Big 8 v Great 8 rivalry in the next round of the Cup.

BLS v Whitebeard
BHB v Monkey Business
Seagulls v Wombats

Other game could see a Div 3 team make the semis.
