Yes, I noticed that. I was going by Fox's schedule. Remember the difference between AEST and AEDT? No? I don't either.

640 is local time in Brissy

We are an hour behind the rest of the Eastern seaboard as we dont have daylight savings :)

We are half an hour behind NSW and VIC (as per normal). During daylight daylight saving QLD are half an hour behind us (SA) and one hour behind VIC and NSW, as they don't have it.

Kerle wasnt a factor tonight and was hardly used - lets hope that Willie can get on him early and keep him down. Mathews also hit 8/12 from the line - surely with his seasons record that sort of foul shooting will be a one off!
God I hope Wille has another night out and gets right up mick Hill - I cant stand him!

it will be a tight game. With derek in this time we will need to find an extra gear. Hopefully the bench guys can lift a bit more and keep the pressure on. Anyone know have ticket sales have been going?

a sign of things to come perhaps?

30 free throw attempts to brisbane
a staggering 8 to hunter for the match!

fouls 24 hunter
13 brisbane

thoughts? the home team getting the good deal? will this continue or was it just a coincidence. 8 free throws for the match! bit rough surely

i would say so! if they were there ok, but it could not be so one sided. Just hope we play a good strong game and all turn up to play, thats the key in my view. Farley, dusty, maher will have big games but we need the other to keep pressure on so we have no flat spots or go missing. We cant let black and rucker start to feel it from range.

WEll, considering the refs were Weeks, Aylen and another non Brisbane ref, I cant see how the home team got an advantage.

All refs on all games will be refs NOT associated with the state of either team playing.

the other non brisbane ref was roger shiels from sydney, so aylen is from melbourne, weeks from adelaide.

however, yogee you will be found to be WRONG with your bit about all refs not being associated with the state that is playing.

the top 3 ref's in australia are mildenhall, hunt and butler

if melb plays brisbane as unlikely as that maybe you should find that combination on a game

if brisbane makes the grand final i'm sure scott butler will have one of the series.

if sydney makes the grand final i'm sure roger shiels will have one of the games

if adelaide makes the grand final i'm sure geoff weeks will have one of the games

only at the olympics and international events do you not referee the country you represent.

Last night we were talking about who we were hoping might be "unfortunately" injured, just for the next game. From Hunter, my pick was Kavossy Franklin; from the Bullets, Bryant Matthews. (Oscar's were Wethers and Black).

How many lay-ups did the Hunter big men miss? Not good.
