Sturt or West? Always a close game, let's share our tips.

should be a good game last 2 times they played it was close 3pts then 2pts sturts way.. too close to call
after watching west play north last week i noticed the zone is strong and if west turn it on thell win but other wise sturt by 10. GO WEST
West zone is strong what I have seen. Going to come down to outside I think.
if the tree is strong, west has a good chance
but maybe Sturt can chop it down via the high post
Heh heh, go the trees, west wouldn't know what man-to-man is. Just depends on what type of trees they will play.
I'd like to call Sunday 25th September, International Day of the Tree

west have done a good job this year with 4 bottom age kids in the side if the game is like last week it will be a great game to see sturt by 3 in o/t
what i heard west have lost there point guard so i think sturt will win
Thats sad if west only have one kid that can bring down the ball
What was that word again that rhymes with 'Hunnerup'...?
Bond is playing. Rumour is the other point guard might not be playing.
Probably due to the fact that he won't improve by playing zone every week for another year. Good decision by his family. I wonder who West will be bitching at now. Perhaps they should look at their own backyard first.
Hopefully Sturt can win the good fight by beating West and there 2/3 stand like a tree zone to prove to everybody that you can win and develop players at the same time.

i cant see Bond going anywhere his family tried to get him to move to sturt two years ago, but said he wanted to stay with his mates at west.......re.51399 one player is not a team, just means others have step up...... sturt to win by 3...
i heard that humphries hurt his shoulder pretty bad and might not be able to play
if you think back to the preliminary final in the state champs, west beat sturt by 17 or something. so i think west will win by 7pts, (around there)

With all of the injury stories, I hope West can field a side, because it's about their turn for that little bit of luck required to win
west and sturt are always great games 2 watch, very high standard GO WEST
West have a good chance considering the game wont be at Pasedena and hopefully wont be ref's from there either

if all of the west boys play a team game and dont try to win it on their own they should get over the line, hope to see a great game.....team game west by 10 otherwise sturt by 10
team game west will win, there's no doubt that west are the most talented team in the leauge if they can get it togerther like they did in the state champs they will win
Yes they did it in the state champs but have they improved? Playing Zone will not develop these players it is the Lazy way of Coaching. Maybe their coach doesn't know how to develop players. He just thinks winning is everything.
Anon #51493 - so when Sturt beat West at Port Adelaide what was the excuse then?
west lost then beause they were missing there starting point guard
Yeah, and Sturt were missing their starting centre, starting power forward and their coach. Next excuse?
Here we go again lost because of missing one kid

As i'm a player in west's team i think i have the best idea what's gonna happen. If u believe the rumours sturt will win, but by fact WEST BY 1 point. Bond hits a 3 on the buzzer!

i think west three man played very well and so did there point gaurd but there 2 man was dissapointing and could of put the game out of reach in the first half if he played well

belive what you want about bondie as someone who knows his family if he was to leave it would have been last season before he went to 16s this kid loves west and his mates that play with him,even if they lost every game he would stay he just loves the game and just loves to play, as long as the kid is happy and enjoying the game why would he move
