Would've thought atleast 1 South Aussie would be in the team after his game vs Victoria in the GF at Nationals.

Phaps the SA boys missed the boat on development here?
Agree a couple, if aged, should have had the chance.

LA,

This is a bottom age U20 team along with the Albertschweitzer age group and junior worlds age group. 1 boy went to camp but didnt make the team for this tournament.

The SA Boys did greaat to get to the finals. A tight group, smart and well coached at State and Club level.

To succeed takes the right mix of work ethic, smarts and GENETICS.

Unlike other years between the 2 teams there was no NBL talent on that court in the GF with the exception of Mitch Creek who I guess will probably end up taking an $80,000 AFL rookie salary over the nbl. Drmic has a LONG way to go to become half they player his brother, who plays in Europe, was!!

Have it on good authority that the SA kid is definitely touring with the EMUS to Germany the week after next. Good for him!

there is actually a s.a guy going to the tournament in germany now. Nathan spehr will be replacing an injured jackson hussey. and creek would go to afl but the fact is how many times a year do afl clubs travel overseas.... with basketball and being so tyoung i personally know that he watns to travel young. maybe in the next year or so he will venture across.
