I am correct in reading in the Sturt vs Forestville women's game someone started last night and played a sum total of 2 minutes and never seen again for the whole game?
Yep, inside the rules. Outside the moral spirit of the game!!!

Might also like to check Norwood doing this with Foley already & Woodville men with Starling..
North alos did it last year with Petrie playing him for 5 seconds in a game..

Great promotion for encouraging "pathways" for Juniors into CABL (surely SA State League is more appropriate) than to have 'ring-ins' do cameo appearance during minor rounds, then start on court come Finals. Time to BSA to grow 'some' and set rules down.
Perhaps a minimum number of games along with minimum number of minutes??
Woodville men didn't do it with Starling they played him so he would still get paid ! If he missed game due to injury he wouldn't get paid.
Careful there Hanging Round. I got told by a poster here recently that I was full of negativity just for suggesting that CABL should actually just be called State League.

I really agree with State league as ABA is dead CABL sounds ordinary - State league brings it in line with the new name for SANFL comp.
Of course it's forrestville! The men's team will b bringing in lebron for the finals series! Basketball sa states: Don't worry it's all legit coz it forrestville and we let them do whatever they want
I think you'll find Foley has actually being clocking up minutes, except possibly against the mavs, she had a legit injury rolling an ankle.
Not in the spirit of the game from Forestville. They've been trying it for years, however doesn't seem to have gotten them too far!

Not far at all unless 2009, 2010 & 2011 Championships count, along with 2001,2003 & 2005 Championships..
Nice call, apart from being the most succesful womens ABA team this decade, you are right,
"They've been trying it for years, however doesn't seem to have gotten them too far!" ...
Oh sure Forestville have got championships, but there's one thing they can't get...
A dinosaur!
