ABL clutch players

Was just watching on the NBA site some of the leagues clutch performers and best clutch performances. Got me thinkin of who would be the ABL's best clutch players? They don't need to necessarily be the best player on the team, but just someone who has the knack to make a big play(s). E.G Robert Horry.
Here is who I could think of off the top of my head.
Thoughts?

1. Darren Ng
2. Daniel Kosmider
3. Todd Matthews
4. Cameron Wilson
5. Erik Burdon
6. Andrew Webber
7. Danny Philips
8. Brad Sulivan
9. Anthony Spudavecchia (spelling?)
10. Tristan Braithwaite

Hasn't Krause had a few big shots late in games the last couple of years.

Andrew Webbers Half court shot to win ABL final would mean he needs to be higher than 6th. And I hate norwood

Hard to rank 'em. But yes, Andrew "Lloyd" Webber's prayer shot was a classic and should be recognised.

Webber's shot was amazing, but as mentioned... it was a heaved "prayer" shot.

Does that make it clutch?

In terms of making shots during set plays in crunch time (in no particular order)... I would put Kosmider, Burdon and Cam Wilson as my Top 3.

Webber for me. Sure, big shot in GF but was amazing and cool under pressure in preliminary against Forestville at MARS.

Those three free throws were so good.

Ask a few teams last season and they will say
Matt Clarke, Matt Atkins.

reckon if ya call Woodville, South, Eastern, North they might agree.

hell when did danny philips last hit a big shot, Kosi definately.

Those Matts are no doormats,
They scoot, then they shoot,
I like it very much,
they qualify as clutch

Over the years the Lions have been starved of wins, but in many of the wins Matt Atkins has been clutch in the 4th quarter.

In the women...
Cant go wrong with Sam Woosnam,
I remember Sammy hitting a big 3 to send a game against South into overtime.
Jess Fergus, solid in the clutch as well

Agree with Issac, Krause has hit some tuff shots. As I recall he hit the tieing three before Webbers bomb.
