western suburbs privilege

If ya gonna be da spelling nazi den give up ya day job cos its full time 4 ya hear.

a question from those more knowledgeable ...
when was the last time the dominant in season teams?
last year hawks were 6.
year before redbacks were 6 or 7.
year before ??

People complaining about them is just as bad as they are.

I tell ya what guys all this talk about the reds demise and me winning mvp gets me raging hooooornniiiiiiiiiiii.

Seriously though - are we going to see the suns in the playoffs for the first time in a while? Both imports are studs, Blanchett is gobbling up like a FIFO worker at a Kuta buffet and rumour has it Coop Lowe has been rooting everything with a pulse. Good time to be peaking

I need a rub down lads my back is killing me from carrying this frickin team.

I miss the days of Redhage, anyone else??? Mwa mwa C ya at the club!!

I got something for Blanchett and Marty Nelson to gobble up with them sexy lips of theirs

I realise now that @ Lukosius would have better a better thread creator than myself

I like this username for when I'm trolling.

People associate crap with this name

Guize this thread sux can we please talk about SBL? Potential playoff match ups? Best announcers in the comp?
Cheers

I will be sure to check out the Kalamunda announcer grrrrr #hornywolf

Don't be hating!

I cheat on the Mrs erry chance I get!!!!!!!!!

This thread is getting silly boys and girls tone it down.

African American kid walking around with swag is automatically cocky? Gee whiz whitey step your game up.

Parsons' is a greek adonis. Don't know what you're all looking at.

PL has taken the identity of their coach which happens. Running around thinking they are real tough until they get punched in the mouth. It's all a facade it will disappear if anyone fights back. It is that simple.

It's over. People trolling Parso now? No coach is safe. Give them a break FFS and don't get personal. That's some low-level shit.

Parsos a top bloke and one of the best coaches in this league. Enough with the low blows

Anyone in admin who has had to deal with Parsons at a club knows he's a complete knob.

In admin hahaha thanks TVL

Wolves supporter arrogant? it is unheard of. Damn if they are salty at all the teams they have lost to in the finals, can't be too many teams left.

#EttoOut

Hopefully the brains of the operation up there aren't at a wedding again!

#Hawks:)

Tell me more baby

Not hard for people to be tracked through ISP Addresses here clowns. Enjoy Nik suing you all for defamation. Regardless of what he did or didn't do with Michael's aunt, it is absolutely none of your business, nor should it be aired on a public forum. You may think you are funny and get off on the admiration of your equally immature friends on here posting under anonymous but how would you like it if these comments were about your sibling or partner, or worse yet about yourself. Pull your heads out of your ass and show some maturity as well as a bit of decency. Lacko might be seen as arrogant and overly sure of himself but he is also somebody who would always say hello to you if he knew your face. If you want to continue this crap then I hope he takes you to court and you learn a valuable lesson about respect

is a bit disappointing to hear bs instead of basketball

I saw Suns play great tonight, Braun and their PG were playing great. Team was sinking shots easily. They have quality players and experienced in their game.

Maybe Braun has talent for an NBL go?

Also Redbacks been getting blown out, not enough talent there to compete with the others

Man it seems the Suns are red hot right now! And thats without 2 of their stars in Viskovich and Timms

pretty low talking like that about lako.

I mean imagine having to play your sbl game on court 2 of your brand new stadium...

!!!

Nix is god

Response

Why did Joondalup play on court two?

.

What is the brightness oh its the Suns rising I need sunglasses out here it is getting hot!!!!

Bump

I think Kalamunda has had enough developing the last 5 years or so now time to win!!

Utley is a great coach, one of the best in the comp, and has proven it time and time again despite the hate.

Does he get stud imports? Yes. Thats part of being a good coach, having networks, being a good recruiter and being good at recognising talent.

No local development? get the hell off it.

Cooper Lowe, Carl Aylett, Ryan Blanchett, Logan Viskovich, Louie Timms, Jono Diaz. These are all local products that Utley has allowed to flourish this year. Diaz and Ryan have been starting, Carl started early on, Cooper been playing some great minutes. Clarke criticised for rotating too much, Utley criticised for not rotating enough....the wins speak for themselves.

So salary cap breaches and rorts, imports being promised penthouse apartments and arriving only to sleep on a mattress on a teammates floor, players being paid on the side because they "work" for basketball academies, players being promised extras on the side and not receiving them, SBL referees reffing their own club SBL games in a biased fashion and you want the SBL to conduct a Royal Commission into a coaches style of play!!!! What planet are you from? I think perhaps Planet Bitter and Twisted because you must have got rejected or embarrassed by Clarke somewhere in your past. Get over it and move on with your life you sad little person.

Anyone that believes they are going to get a penthouse apartment in the SBL I got some beach front property with ocean views to sell you in Idaho lol

Bump

Despite all the BS on this message thread, there are still plenty of positive stories about the SBL, and the Giants (and SBL for that matter) were featured nationally tonight on the "7:30 Report" show...

https://drive.google.com/file/d/101SuPqst_7iJ0_5TlqBMy-6QjqXUH_Mc/view?usp=sharing

And there is also a related story on the ABC website...

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2019-07-09/regional-australias-american-basketball-stars/11061690?fbclid=IwAR0PE7tLleHUQqMIbrC-ZLjkPzlOkd5IRPzRc2dILzo7y2lU6tfN00L9WnA

Kidner did her knee a couple of weeks ago

The race for 7th & 8th spot is down to 3 teams - Giants, Suns and Willo.

GIANTS - Currently 11-11

After 3 losses in a row, the equation is simple for the Giants; win both games against Willetton and Cockburn this weekend and that will see them all but seal a playoff spot.

With their remaining games against Cockburn (A), Eagles (H) and Slammers (H), the Giants should be a lock for finals basketball.

Predicted Finish: 14-12 and good enough for 7th

TIGERS - Currently 10-12

After a big road win in Kalgoorlie last weekend, the Tigers have kept their season alive.

Their remaining 4 games are Mandurah (A), Giants (H), Bunbury (H) & Perry Lakes (H). These are all very winnable games, but I think the Hawks will be too strong in the last game of the season.

Predicted Finish: 13-13 and enough to seal 8th spot

SUNS - Currently 11-11

4 wins on the trot by an average margin of 19.8ppg have put the Suns in a playoff position. However, they have a horrid run home with games against Cockburn (H), Rockingham (A), Lakeside (A) & Joondalup (A).

They should do enough to beat Cockburn, but it's a big ask to knock off the top 3 teams on their home courts.

While it's a brave effort, they will fall short of making the 2019 finals.

Predicted Finish: 12-14 and time to look ahead to 2020.

This weeks games will let us know everything we need to know. If Willo loses to Kal it will be curtains if KES wins both. Which they are capable of doing.

Oh my gosssssh guize how gwd is Javion The Snake Blake!!!! no 1 can stop him he is so qwik and so fast and sa stwong. Watch him go for forty forty again dis wekend!!!! Go Suns!!!! better luck next year Redbax!!!

The only thing flatter than me will be the Suns finals hopes after we keep winning!

Why does that bloke on the SBL slam always sound like he has peanut butter on the roof of his mouth?

Hey guys Corey Easley and I are going to sizzler on sat night at 4.30 for dinner if anyone wants to come??

Where is random?

Ha... You can tell its school holidays again can't you! Let's try and get a bit of civility back on this thread and look at the remaining games for the Top 9 - whom I believe are the only ones remaining in Finals contention with two weeks left of the regular season

1. Joondalup Wolves (18-6)
Remaining Games: vs Cougars (W); vs Suns(!?)
Led by as much as 5 tonight with two mins to go up in the Midwest before the Buccs pulled off the comeback win with a huge 3 with two seconds remaining on the clock, and the subsequent turnover following the timeout from the in-bounds pass all but costing the Wolfpack a guarantee of locking in top spot on the ladder. Only two games remaining and should have more than enough talent to cover Gav and the Cougars next week at HBF, before what looks like a very interesting game versus the resurgent Suns at HBF in the last week of the season.
Predicted 2nd @ 19-7 (Hold H2H over Lakeside +16)

2. Lakeside Lightning (17-5)
Remaining Games: vs Suns (W) @ Perry Lakes (L) @ Rockingham (W) vs Buccs (L)
Arguably the toughest run home out of anyone in the top 8 with all four games against teams headed for the Finals. Even split of two @ home and two away which I see them splitting both, but could knock off the Buccs in their last game for the regular season to possibly take 1st if the Wolves go down to the Suns on the same night at HBF. Gero will want to secure that Top 4 position though and Home Court for the Quarter Finals, so I will go with a loss at home to the Buccs to wind out their season
Predicted 3rd @ 19-7 (Would lose H2H vs Wolves -16)

3. Geraldton Buccaneers (16-6)
Remaining Games: @ South West (W) @ Mandurah (W) @ Lakeside (W) @ Warwick (W)
Huge win for the Gero boys in front of the Midwest Maniacs tonight over the Wolves to hold onto that chance of a Top 2 finish. Back to Back double headers will be a tough finish to the regular season, but with what i expect to be a fairly easy double header against the Wooden Spoon-bound Slammers, followed by the Magic on Sunday in Waroona, it leaves their task of winning the final two games of the season back down here in Week 20 against the Lightning & Senators respectively, alot easier than it could have been. You have to wonder if this could be the swansong for local legends Moot and Ralphy, so will this be there final chance at holding aloft Bob in nearly two decades... Only time will tell!
Predicted 1st @ 20-6

4. Rockingham Flames (17-7)
Remaining Games: @ Warwick (W) vs Lightning (L)
Just the two games remaining for the injury hit Flames who have had to rely heavily on Hire in recent weeks after his 3x3 efforts overseas. White has turned out to be more dud than stud as the season has gone on and with Ritchart out with a leg injury, the boys from the Ham have done well just to get to where they have. The ultra talented Travers due back from a US trip in the next week or so will be welcome relief for Coach Petrik in his endeavours to win the Men their first SBL Championship
Predicted 4th @ 18-8 * Hold H2H over Hawks 2W-0L

5. Perry Lakes Hawks (17-7)
Remaining Games: vs Lightning (L) @ Willetton (W)
Somewhat of an inconsistent year for the defending Champions, but have started to find a bit of form as the season has gotten to the pointy end. Huge matchup against the God Squad at the Church next week, is followed up by a danger game against the Tigers in the final week of the season for Parso's feathered fliers. Do not hold the H2H over the Flames so if they want home court for the Quarters, would need to pull off the upset of Lakeside next week.
Predicted 5th @ 18-8 * Lose H2H against Flames 0W-2L

6. Warwick Senators (15-8)
Remaining Games: vs Flames (L) @ Mandurah (W) vs Buccs (W)
On their night, the boys from Warwick can challenge anyone in the League. But the consistency to do that on a regular basis has evaded them so far in 2019 and is the reason they currently sit where they do on the ladder. I think their second last game on the road to the Magic could give them alot of confidence with Mandurah having not much to play for rather than pride, and the Senators needing some momentum before they host Gero in the final game of the Regular Season on the Sunday of Week 20
Predicted 6th @ 17-9

7. Kalamunda Eastern Suns (13-11)
Remaining Games: @ Lakeside (L) @ Joondalup (W)
Its incredibly hard not to be impressed with the Suns late season form. Since their road loss to the Senators in Week 14, them boys from the Hills have won six on end and fear nobody at present which is just the mindset they will need ahead of their remaining two games of the regular season. Braun has to be the short priced League MVP Favourite, but it is how Coach Utley has this entire unit playing which makes them the Cinderella story heading into SBL Finals 2019. Interestingly if the Suns were to split their final two games and finish 7th, they would play their Week 20 opponent in the Wolves in the Quarter Finals.
Predicted 7th @ 14-12 ^ Hold H2H over Willetton but Lose H2H vs Giants

8. Willetton Tigers (12-12)
Remaining Games: vs Slammers (W) vs Hawks (L)
Massive win tonight ensured they stay above the Giants on the ladder but also secure the vitally important H2H matchup against the Kalgoorlie-based side as well for the season 2W-OL. Shouldn't have too much trouble against the visiting Slammers next season, but hard to see how they can stop a Hawks side still with a mathematical shot of finishing Top 4 in Week 20 if results go their (Perry Lakes) way. If results go as I predict, would have the unenviable task of facing the Buccs in the Quarter Finals
Predicted 8th @ 13-13 # Win H2H over Goldfields 2W-0L

9. Goldfields Giants (11-12)
Remaining Games: @ Cockburn (L) vs Eagles (W) vs Slammers (W)
Its fair to say the Giants season all comes down to whether or not they can knock off Cockburn at the Cougar Den tomorrow at Lunch. The fact that they lose the H2H battle with Willo means Creeky's boys must win their remaining three games for the season to ensure they play Finals Basketball in 2019, and set up a huge Quarter Final Series against arch rivals Geraldton. Unfortunately for the Golfields, the back end of double headers has not been kind to them this season and ending another teams finals aspirations could be all the motivation Coach Nener's Cougars need tomorrow. Survive and advance starts now for the boys from the states gold capital...
Predicted 9th (13-13) # Lose H2H against Tigers 0W-2L

The also rans...

Perth Redbacks (10th)
Departures, Rumors and the money well running dry will be the story of the Spiders Season. Big questions over whether or not Nik will still be at the Helm in 2020 but if he isn't, who takes over? Massive rebuild to begin under a new coach I am predicting

Cockburn Cougars (11th)
If Gav doesn't get injured and if Millam gets here a bit earlier, possibly could have been a finals contender but I doubt whether or not they make it past the first round. Alot of positives down at the Den - Nener has done exceptionally well with the limited resources he has but they will need to either recruit from intra & interstate to once again be a competitive force in the League.

East Perth Eagles (12th)
New Stadium and the return of Forde promised alot for the Eagles 2019 campaign but it all started to go downhill when the coach moved interstate to take up a position with the Kings in the NBL, leaving Coach Driscoll to see out the season. Maharaj, Williamson and Taiwhiti were all good leaders for a relatively young group, but they will need an injection of funds and a quality restricted player or two if they are to reverse their 2019 form.

Mandurah Magic (13th)
A young squad with two relatively young Imports was always going to make it a tough season for Trahair's troops. Not much in the way of junior talent coming through int he immediate future for the Magic means a couple more lean seasons yet unless they can coax some talent from the neighbouring Slammers and / or Flames programs looking for more opportunities.

South West Slammers (14th)
Tough first year back in the League for Coach Triscari with ageing Americans and a relatively inexperienced bench leading to the one win season. BWA taking over at an administrative level at least shows the need is there for the club, but alot has to be done in the way of developing alot of the south-west based athletes in the U16 & U18 state teams to progress on the development pathway into the SBL system down there, otherwise this kind of season will not be just a once off.

Rockingham... a bigger joke than the Fremantle Dockers!

Well... My bad. Its what working night shift and doing a preview in the early hours of sat morning does for you haha Id say Lakeside to get the win at home which would take them to 20-6 on my predictions and possibly second position on the Ladder at the end of Week 20. Alot of ball to be played between now and then however

See im back at work tonight so priorities are not obviously thinking about Bball lol 4pt win for the Hawks back in Week 13 at the Church, so we will go with the Hawks to get the job done again on their anti-shooter friendly rings by 7pts

Giants with big win over Cougars at Cockburn today now makes 7th/8th/9th very interesting.

On the subject of Giants, Burke is outstanding and has no back-to-the-basket peers in the league at the moment.

Last 4 games...

44 pts (18/30 FG)
29 pts (14/20)
38 pts (15/18)
33 pts (13/21)

Ave 36ppg at 67%

and add 9rpg to that.

Javion Blake last 4 games:
33-9-4
40-11-5
35-13-7
31-7-7.

Do suns have the two best imports in the comp? could they cause one of the top seeds dramas?

All-import team at the moment....

C - Carter
PF - Burke
SF - Braun
SG - Stewart
PG - Blake

Javion Blake first 3x POW ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

All quiet on the Western Front

gee Whiz guize I'm a lil worried about da hot sunz 2 nite!!!

Utley is going to need the holy spirit tonight if he wants to take us down! YEAHYA!

I'm back baby and my fury will be unleashed like the crashing of a thousand winds!!!!

The power of christ compels us the power of christ compels us lol

Lakeside: Doing nothing of any importance on court since Andy left all those years ago. Keep popping those pills boys and pumping that 'iron'

what are the tie breaker rules for two teams at the end of the season?

Bump motherfuckers

LOL, what is the point of imports? This isn't a league for the spectators.

Wouldn't it make more sense to only allow one restricted player? Wouldn't it be more even that way?

Allow clubs to keep money in the juniors rather than tax them for the benefit of guys coming in from overseas and leaving with the cash straight after the season?

Take a step back. Isn't that craziness?

Some clubs are getting it right, and have a great balance. Others evidently are not.

It seems short-sighted to suggest go and make a rule and diminish the product, to ultimately try and improve it for a small few.

Agree problems, and solutions required, but equalisation doesn't work - there's a cap in place that is the ultimate tool for this

The SBL is a competition. Which means you compete - against one another.
Those clubs that can spend up to the cap - which is every club's right and advantage, if viable, put themselves in a better position.

Viability is early and proven. Stability over a long period, sponsors, junior pathways, good decision making, there’s quite a few clubs that have this. Others seem to really battle, having sold the farm in previous eras or due to amateurish decisions and actions.

Not sure about balance mentioned above but certainly there appears reward for competency, which is entirely appropriate.

Wolves finishing in second is disappointing.

If you're not first, you're last...

Although even first we would lose in the GF anyway with the master choker in charge. *sigh*

getting a fringe nbl player isn't the answer! Marshall Nelson is a contracted nbl player and his team has been blown out quite a few times. Its not that simple bruh

Anon, you are onto it! What is the point of imports!! What is the actual purpose of the SBL? We have clubs, competing for the sake of competing- there is no prize money, so that's not the point; clubs recruit players and imports and sit locals on the bench, so development is not the point; clubs use money from juniors to pay for their players, so most financial security isn’t present.

The league needs to work out it’s purpose.

I suggest having no imports and it is a development league OR have one import each that doesn’t get paid!

What's the difference between those two options?

Pretty clear- No imports OR have one import who doesn't get paid....0

Women's Finals Outlook - Week 20 Games of note:

Cockburn (11th) @ Perth (9th)
- Perth MUST win to have any hope of snatching 8th position from the Suns, who would then need to lose to the Wolves on Saturday night to be relegated to 9th as Perth own the season H2H (+7) over the Suns
- Redbacks on a 3 game losing streak but did beat the Cougars by 20 down at the Den earlier in the season
** Perth to Win comfortably and keep their Finals hopes alive for rookie coach Craig Allen

Lakeside (1st) @ Rockingham (7th)
- Flames can not finish any lower than 7th but could finish 6th with a win if the Hawks go down to Willo on Saturday night, with Rocko holding that H2H over the Hawks
- The defending champs guaranteed to finish as Minor Premiers and secure home court advantage throughout the Finals at the Church yet again. Lakeside won the first matchup between these two teams comfortably by 20+ earlier in the season
** Lakeside defeat the Flames on the road, meaning the Flames can only finish 6th if the Tigers defeat the Hawks on Saturday

Warwick (2nd) @ Mandurah (4th)
- Arguably the most important game of the round with both teams entering this one with a 14-7 record and all to play for here
- Interestingly the last time the Senators beat a Finals bound team this season, was all the way back in Week 11 with a 25 point win over the Tigers at Warwick. The Senators also won the first game of this matchup by 13, but the Magic are now on an incredible 8 game winning streak stretching back to Week 13.
** At home and with that impressive win streak, i'll go with Mandurah to move to a 15-7 record and leapfrog the Senators in the process

Hawks (6th) @ Tigers (5th)
- Willetton currently +12 on the H2H after winning their Week 6 clash at Bendat. If Tigers win, they hold H2H over Wolves, but lose H2H to Senators & Magic
- If Hawks lose and Rockingham lose, Hawks would drop to 7th on H2H
** Tigers to win their final game on their old home court before the move across to the new Showcourt in 2020, defeating the Hawks by 6

Suns (8th) @ Wolves (3rd)
- Huge ask here for the Suns to keep their Finals hopes alive, knowing that they will know the result from the night before in the Perth game as to whether or not they need to win to keep their Finals aspirations alive
- Wolves with H2H over those around them, could secure home court advantage with a win here and results going their way. Wolves won their game in the Hills earlier in the season by 14
** Suns to lose and heartbreakingly get knocked out of the playoff race, going down by 15

R@nD0m's Final WSBL Ladder

1. Lakeside 17-5
2. Joondalup 15-7
3. Mandurah 15-7
4. Warwick 14-8
5. Willetton 14-8
6. Rockingham 13-9
7. Perry Lakes 13-9
8. Perth 10-12

R@nD0m's WSBL Quarter Finals

QF1 - Lakeside vs Perth (Lightning 2-0)
QF2 - Joondalup vs Perry Lakes (Wolves 2-0)
QF3 - Mandurah vs Rockingham (Magic 2-1)
QF4 - Warwick vs Willetton (Senators 2-1)

our locals are scoring less this season than they were last season + the 2 imports are dominating = Development

So I see the bible bashers are most likely going to finish 1st in both the SBL and WSBL above Wolves in 2nd. How much are they spending in comparison to Joondalup?

Random why did you leave the radio show? You have shown more insight in one post than the entire year's coverage of the women's competition on that show this year. It always feels like the three presenters are all trying to compete for who can talk the most, not to mention the poor jokes which i can only assume must be a perry lakes inside joke thing, otherwise its just terrible like Josh Garlepp's Hair (Stop trying to look like Conan O'Brien mate) Hopefully if there is any sense in the world, or at least from bwa - you will do the play by play again for the grand finals which i feel you did very well last year with Fleur and Mark.

Cougars women already announcing their coach is done

There wasn't much further back to go from when Triscari had them

2 x QF with Triscari

After Lukosius's great synopsis will the Hawks not try tonight to let the Tigers get 8th spot if the Suns dont bet Wolves.Should watch the betting odds.

Surely they wont reschedule the game to be played back at Willetton after this?

The top-6 positions in the mens SBL have been decided...

1st - Wolves
2nd - Lightning
3rd - Buccaneers
4th - Flames
5th - Hawks
6th - Senators

Even though there are still two games remaining today, the above standings cannot change.

As far as 7th/8th in concerned, these will be determined by the result of the postponed Tigers vs Hawks game at 5.00pm this afternoon....

(a) Hawks defeat Tigers
7th - Giants
8th - Suns
9th - Tigers

(b) Tigers defeat Hawks
7th - Tigers
8th - Giants
9th - Suns

OMG

What happened to the bucs starting point guard? He hasn't played the past few games. Tough to start finals without your best player

It should not be overlooked that over those past few years the core of Wolves were recruited and paid juniors from other clubs

The Big Bad Wolf....Awoooo!!

This is why Earnest Ross is so hung....

Did someone seriously just state the the Buccs best player is their Point Guard. What dream world are you living in mate?

Earnest Ross is a back court player not a big he just happens to be a big wing. Suns win 2-0 Lakeside 2-0 Rockingham 2-1 Gero 2-1.

I can't wait for the Wolves to make yet another Grand Final only to be Etto'ed and lose.

hey Perthworld
can you ease up on the christian bashing and your stupid crass and unnecessary comments.
lakeside have never pumped their values on anyone else and personally i have a lot of respect for the way they go about things and I have nothing to do with them.
you are not even slightly funny.i am not laughing and i doubt any decent people on this forum are, if they all havent left after the recent trash you spew.

enuf is enuf mate!

i respect that this may be the way you talk to each other in the green army with your crush kill and destroy arrogance but for the most of us ... it is low class trash.

will isby and alipate be back for gero?

I'll see you at HBF Perthworld, I won't be hard to miss either. You'll find me wearing the orange jumper!

perthworld when i just start to respect an insight you have your next post is dumb bravado with cheap innuendo or religious slander.
personally have no desire to go to HBF ever, and be around dumb arrogance and anyone so crass and pathetic.
sorry perthworld just calling out your unnecessary religious slander, innuendo and 'meet you in the carpark' trash that has no place in our community or sport.
these sbl teams we are talking about are funded by junior basketball and i hope (and pray) that wolves never allow you to be around any of kids that fund your sbl team!
time to put out the trash.

I'm ok to meet you on Friday night look for me in an old school Pacers jersey with number #31.
However I have to say being loud and proud is fun but on a basketball chat page we should tone it down.

@enuf Alright well I apologise for the Lakeside nickname. You don't seem to understand however that most of the posts under my nickname are being done by someone else pretending to be me and the mods are on holiday at the moment. Just ignore it.

Interesting that both of the Cougars Head Coach positions will be vacant in the off-season. I feel for Nener as I think given the limited budget he has / had, he did very well considering. Who do we think takes over down at the Den in 2020 for both the Men's and Women's programs?

As far as I know no moderators have ever bothered with this thread.

Fake Perthworld = Ettridge?

Wonder if the GM will hand himself one of those jobs?

I thought the same thing Anon. Could see him giving himself the Men's position and then somehow having the budget for two imports and perhaps even an NBL player

Funny how people make fun of Lakeside bcoz of the church aspect yet they do the most drugs and bad shite in the league.

Parsons had the same budget as Nener just used it to get working holidays visas and found the imports jobs
Hardly would say it's career suicide since he went on to win another championship within two years
Agree that the GM would’ve set this up for himself to take the men’s role. Nener will be better off at another club

I would say that the politics would have a lot to do with the past previous men's coaches and Nener leaving
Funny that they had no budget but managed to score a great sponsorship and car from Honda and put on a paid GM
If the GM doesn’t give himself the coaching role don’t be surprised if it’s the Van Lits .....

You wouldn't take it on?

Why?

Because Cockburn doesn't conform to what everyone else says SBL is all about?

Everyone else - Winning/Money/Egos

Cockburn will not conform!

I know for a fact that the "core group" of players would leave or sit out the season if the GM took over the coaching gig at Cockburn.

haha he would probably clean house anyway to get his type of players so them sitting out or not playing will just make that easier.

I love $$$$

What is interesting is the lack of 3pt attempts and makes by Willo this year were near the bottom in both need more shooting

Making 7 3s a game just not gonna get it done in today's game

Anon you stupid rooster - Lakeside do the most drugs, I was pilled up to my eye balls every weekend at Metros mate - Daddy splashed that cassssshhhhh though.

So I guess the new nickname for Lakeside is druggies? Since "b**** b******" caused outrage yet these serious allegations haven't had any pushback at all.

and there u go again perthworld.

how many SBL imports have been potheads? if i start counting i will be a while.
if every club got branded as a whole due to what a few of their players have done while playing for them clubs would be writeoffs.
sof boys havent played for years. move on!

and bible bashers didnt cause outrage. i just called you out as trash for wanting to use religion as a cheap shot.

Okay noted.

What imports enuf? I'm just wondering if you can step down from your high horse and elaborate. By the way pills are a lot different to substances like cannabis and caffeine.

When you write utterly stupid shit like that it makes people think you and Perthworld are the same person

just saying some imports over the years have had issues. dont see perthworld slandering those clubs.
perthworld for some reason is just focussed on lakeside.

wait . who is wolves biggest threat on form in the 4peat IF they get through to the GF.

ha ha true to form . etto getting his excuses in early.

It's pretty clear now the last six posts above were all made by the same guy, i.e. the Perthworld impostor/"enuf"/Cheech/anon et al. So sad.

Yes

Paul, LC, Koberulz, etc.

Enjoy watching SBL games with my grand kids. Been on this forum quite a few times over the past few months. But disgusted of late with the rubbish on here. So thinking why bother to come back on here. Lot of posters need to have a good hard look at what they are saying - great promotion of a great family sport - NOT !!!!!!
