So what does everyone feel the punishment will be for the Heal V Mackinnon. Personally i think the NBL General Manager (Chuck Harmisson) will give them a fine.

They both should get 1 week, but then Chuck Harmisson will give them a fine as per usual as he will not want to upset the new franchise or Mr Groves ball club (bullets). It is time for the Iowa born General Managers shows some balls!

Totally agree with GJ and DrB, Chuck will continue his spineless management and fine them as he does not want to upset the big players of the league. The NBL should sack the General Manager, he has created a pathetic NBL schedule and is too scared to piss off the money ball clubs! Sack Chuck the corn boy from Iowa!!

Agree they will get a fine, however they should get 1 week. What i do not understand is that the NBL ( Chuck Gen Mang) should have had this sorted before Brisbane next match against the Tigers) Then again we know that the league is turning into the Groves National Basketball (GNL) and Harmisson doesnt want to upset the big time investors ball club! I agree sack the General Manger, shit NBL draw i agree too!

i didn't think there was much in it they fell over and both wanted to make a statement... that they were not entirely comfortable on the floor together.
On a tangent i thought there were set responses to players coming off the bench to join the fray even when they come on to provide a degree of separation. Anyone know what the official point on this is.

Catt got 1 game for hitting Wright, Heal should get the same, Mac should get 1 game plus a community service medal for doing what most of us want to do.

No-one HIT anyone, that's the difference with the Catt incident.
They'll both get fined.
Ironically, there seemed to be more people cheering for Sam than Heal in the stands.....Odd? Maybe not.
I reckon those fools that came in later should be getting fined too, what the hell was Rosell Ellis doing jumping in and causing even more hassles.

all sammymac did was accidently trip over heal, if that stupid tool had just got up like mac was trying to do, instead of grabbing him around the neck, there wouldve been nothing.
sammymac didnt even attempt to hit anyone during the whole thing while that assh0le shane heal was obviously lookin for a brawl.
verdict: Heal-1week + fine
SammyMac- maybe a small fine but even that he doesnt deserve.
you can see sammy mac grabbing shane and it even looks like he is trying to "slam" his head against the floor. The tool seemed to instigate it, by pulling sammy down, but they were n't getting off each other in a hurry.
