i and my son Sam Dunk have been killed in a terrible accident.

we are no more

sorry isaac

It certainly appears that the clubs are not helping themsleves.

We here complaints from the league about TV and sponsors yet the clubs in general can not even promote the basics.

They should not be just "flogging" season tickets but incentivising and value adding to Joe Public to encourage them to buy season tickets.

Perceived value is marketing 101 give the punter exclusive invites to team BBQ'S, tours of the Dome including the pump up room and change rooms.

get the people involved and they will pay $$$

No spectators combined with no sponsors = no teams = no league simple as that.

Murray - seriously? What happened?

I can understand if something like the club song is lost with progress, but not the mascot too? Murray/SamDunk was entertaining, worked hard and the flips down the court were a staple of a night at the basketball. Kids love the mascot and the opening club song, etc.

I would love to be back next year but i have to consider offers from overseas. A mascot only has a short time to earn his money you know.

Lets hope that the summer league try outs pay off other wise i here the Greek league is not that picky about Australians being in their comp.

As for Sam he is busy snacking on the left over Pringles from last year.

Murray

As good as Sam was, I think an "edgier", more "in your face" mascot is needed.

Look at the Kings Lion, the Croc from Townsville, and the Snake from Cairns, and they are always talked about.

We need a good mascot, not a recycled Crows mascot.

No offence to Murray/Sam intended, they did a good job for what they were/are, but tiem for a change to somethng better.

So your saying you want my job then Yogee, if in deed that is your real name.

Wouldnt want your job for all the beer soaked bread in the world :)

I rememeber when you and the Pura Milk Monster worked together, that was fantastic, till he got sick of being hen-(magpie) pecked every week and quit.

Would you share the limelight with another mascot again??

The court is not big enough for 2 mascots!!

you saw what happened to the pringles mascot when he stepped onto my turf!!

What about a new club song please!!!!!

Scrap the club song, scrap the bird, advertise Farley! Admin get your heads inn, I'm sick of this crap you call advertising, I will not be GOOD! I will support a champion team though, problem is that no one else will be there except us die hard supporters who know the game, and the off season happenings! So many people i speak to still don't know Farley is back. look well done on getting a draw card like Farley, but for god sake USE HIM! Last time he was here we were known as TITLETOWN, let the fans know it's going to happen again. After all, who ever shows up is going to see some great ball this season!

Bring back the old club song with the banjo's and all I say!! At least it had some character to it and was a good sing-a-long for all!!

Who's calling that song old? It's original! There's nothing old or dated about original.

We are the 36ers, the team for one and all. The pride of South Australia (note how this phrase has been stolen by that "disgracefull" mob from West Lakes - their words, not mine!), the tops in basketball.

If they can't find a tape lying around, I'd be more than happy to belt out the song and be part of a new recording. The new song was crap (I heard that Chocolate Starfish were part of revamping all the club songs in the late 90s and can lay claim to that disgraceful Wildcats song sung to the tune of the Hallelujah chorus).

It's back to the future, it's back to the times when big Ken Cole was puffing ..... oh, you know what I mean. When Bill Jones was the best centre in the league, when Karl Luke was the hottest prospect in the league, when Scott Ninnis was nothing but a dunking teenager with a crewcut, when Ray Wood and Peter Ali were still going strong, when Al Green was known more for his basketball than his [CENSORED] tom performances, when Darryl Pearce was plain unstoppable, when Lyn Parnell and Andy Kay were on the mikes for Channel 7, when Apollo and its darkwood floor where it and a bit, when the Sixers Bad Boys (Phil, Nords, Geoff, Drills etc) were stirring the pot, when you had to duck under the low ceilings in the corridor when going to the dunnies, when Ninnis/Spear/Sexton were fighting it out for scrap minutes, when Leroy/Cal/Rat were hamming it up in Brisbane ..... how I long for the good old days.

Progress is progress, but if you want real progression, hear this: bring back the damn song. It was fantastic and still is!

"We run and jump, and shoot to win, the best there is no doubt,
We are the best team in the land, so come on lets all shout"

I too love the song. PLEASE bring back the song

i reckon the song should come back
