Games have begun and already a bunch of upsets.
Looks like vics will dominate in u14 club champs.
7 of the top 8 in girls are vics. Forestville the other.
The top 8 teams on boys are all vic teams.

Thought Dandenong would smash Sturt but Brett got them the win.
Pretty bad considering you have 4 future Australian reps in the Dandenong side.
Not unusual for Vics to dominate the top half of 14s but still see some challenges at Nationals. They are more consistent participants at Classic and most comfortable with the format, officiating, etc. Historically, their use of zone D would have been a factor, though, and that's no longer the case.
#643 how many all-interstate finals would have been contested across all age groups in Classic history? I can't imagine it's many. Great result for SA there.

appears Vic have increased the gap since January in 14s
Who can challenge vic teams at nationals, thought sa teams would come closest.
Sydney was nsw best, Forestville sa best. Only one that could possibly challenge would be Gold Coast with there size.

You would imagine one of the WA teams might challenge in the boys given they made the SCC shield game in 14s. Cairns will also go very close in the boys too
Wa Players who played scc are spread across many teams.
Looking forward to seeing those u16 grand finals on livestream.

What a joke basketball Victoria is. If you are down at the classic and going to Nationals you can see Victoria's state side play in the GF today. The state coach is also the Bulleen coach and has 7 of squad in her rep team. You would hate to be trying to make a state team in Victoria, not rigged much.
6 in Bulleen the squad, 1 of them is a reserve.

Yes as indicated above, alot of the boys I had in my 14s WA Metro Team are very spread out across the three touring teams - 2 with me at Rockingham; 4 at Willo and 3 at Perry Lakes. Looking forward to getting across to Vic and seeing how we all match up club wise
