highly over rated. Vic by a mile - watch Dandy - Sturt result at classics. Will give a clear indication. Melb will beat sturt you may find as well. SA has no depth.

U/16 Boys & Girls will both play in a (City v Country) double at the Dome next Saturday. Boys at 2.15, Girls at 3.30.
Should be a good day.

I think you are underestimating the SA Metro kids. SA Metro will smash SA Country by 50.

Country girls beat Metro by 20 in a trial game a couple of weeks back. Country boys played Metro with their train on squad of 21 (played 3 teams of 7) & lost by 30. This will be the first time they will play with their Nationals group.
Regardless the result this is a good oppourtunity to come out & support SA's Representative teams before the Nationals.

Metro girls haven't got the ball control or shooting options to do much damage at Nationals cept to the turn over sheet.

What do the club results have to to with nationals unless your ACT who play their whole team together.

I saw the SA teams for the first time at the classic and the top players are very good. Put them together and they have a chance to be a contender.

Vic Metro will be super tough but dont underestimate SA Metro.

I havent seen the SA metro boys however, watching the competition of the 16boys at the classics i believe both SA teams are going to find it extremely tough if not impossible. Just watching the semi and grand final of the 16boys showed what sort of talent that vic and new south have got this year.

Take the 2 best Sturt kids, with the West shooter and a couple of Norwood players and you have a quite good group.

Outside of Dandenong and Melbourne the Vic teams were only OK.

NSW better hope that they have some help for Jackson.

SA Metro will be ok i think. Not world beaters, but certainly contend to get through their pool. A lot will depend on their 2 big kids and the other guard from Norwood that didnt play this weekend. Will he be ok to play at Nationals?

Norwood was missing their best player, and those other 2 Norwood players particularly the big one, will excel in a better environment where they dont have a high pitched shrill from the sidelines in their heads the whole time.

Don't under estimate the teams from the West.

with a nsw champ and 2 vic teams highly competitive at classic it looks as though the same thing is going to happen at nationals.. west teams will struggle to contain individuals from both these regions

new south will be strong at nationals.. only 3 from northern suburbs are in the team, which is a bit surprising.. but 2 legitimate starters in the norths PG Aldridge and PF dont know his name.. Vic will be super tough with 5 dandenong and 2 melbourne players..

Keep talking up the NSW and Vic Metro teams from the classic result but beware the teams from the West.

You SA guys amaze me, your U16 boys have got some great talent and will be very tough to beat. You should be confident in them but maybe you dont know as much about the game as you think!!

The only thing against you is the fact that WA Metro, NSW Metro and Vic Country are in the same pool!! Interesting seeding by organisers.

Vic Metro and Qld South will be very tough also but are the only threats from the other pool.

In answer to your question dwill "what are vic country looking like.. where are the players from?"

After watching at the classics this past weekend I can say (with some authority) that Vic country look like normal kids with two arms and legs each (I'm pretty sure anyway)and they are defiantly all from Vic country areas.

Hey, no need for thanks, it is my pleasure!

Vic Country have 3 players from Horsham, all of which are very good. They have a small blonde guard that is a great shooter of the ball, and 2 athletic bigs that are good off the dribble and able to shoot also. Will be a tough group to match up with.

I agree with the above post, and despite what anyone from Corio Bay may think, they are well coached too.
