What's Hot/What's Not
What's Hot:
- Over 700 people to the Forestville v Sturt game, (and seeming as coaches like me were not counted going in the door), great job all involved getting the game up and running, with the stand being up and running with a great game to boot. Sure beats family and friends at North Adelaide games.
- Films not starring Ben Affleck
- Oscar Forman, 37 points on 15/32 shooting with 16 rebounds (6 offensive)
- Channel ten at the game to do a story on Brad Newley
- The Playboy Mansion game, well for a laugh
- Club 33, nah just kidding, I admired you growing up Mark, but I've gone to that place twice now and the walls have mould on them
- The Great Mates charity screening of Coach Carter, I'll be getting a ticket
- The Difference, with 20 points, 7/19 shooting, 18 rebounds, 5 assists 2 blocked shots 6 steals
- Jason Dix, 9/16 shooting for 26 points and 14 rebounds, the kid has game
- 108 shots by Sturt, jacking them up good to see, (34% less pleasing to see)
- Newley's vertical leap, he was just showing off with some mad crazy boards at the end of the game
- All junior refs doing a great job under tough conditions
- Will Smith, just has a cool name, from here forth I will only refer to the bloke as the Fresh Prince
- Jason Farman 12 points, 5/7 FG with 7 rebounds, nice contribution.
- Sam Prior providing photos, good job.
What's Not:
- Marcus Ngs shorts that guy needs a Queer eye make-over desperately
- Darren NG I love the guys game but he really is stinking it up lately it pains me to say this but he had 3/17 shooting, 0/6 from downtown, for 11 points.
- The haters.
- Date movies
- The fact that if EC and DarkAngel don't show up the Sturt fan base is cut in half
- Peter Nguyen look-a-likes
- Sunday Mail write-ups that have Andrew Bogut listed as a point guard
- 67 rebounds by one team and 60 by another, enough missed shots to go around
- The national anthem (for the haters)
- Adam Benson missing a wide-open lay-up
- David Shepherd 1/6 shooting
- $6 entry for student to the game
- AFL football, boring sport played in one country in the world with minimal skills, where's the innovation? Boring flooding as well
- Junior teams who wins comps playing 1-2-1 zones all season.
Flop of the week:
- Brad Newley. I came to see a show and Newly plays like he is drunk for the the first 3 quarters. 5/19 shooting, 3/8 from downtown, 3/8 from the line with 8 turnovers. Sure the guy stepped it up for the last two minutes, but 700 people expected to see more of a spectacle.
