And Millicent is...?

Where exactly is Millicent and why does everyone talk it up? Isn't it just a hole of a country town? The only player i know that is half decent from Millicent is shannon seebohm. Do they hav any chicks that can play down there? Is there anyone but shannon down there or what?

Millicent is in the south east.About 4 hours from Adelaide. There is a very solid basketball program down there and it is run by Peter Seebohm. They won 3 out of the 4 finals at the 16 & 18 Country Championships.The only one they lost was the 16 girls against Yorke Valley and if you know who they have playing for them then you would know why Yorke Valley won!

yeah ur right- 4 hours from adelaide. They hav a pretty good program- best in sa country i've heard. yaeh shannon is awesome. Ferg hamilton plays for forestville and isnt too bad. As for the chicks, don't really know,um.. Kate someone used to play for forestville but dunno what she does now. She was ok as well.

Cash money. Brad Hill is from Hahndorf, not millicent.

Anon. At the moment the SA Country Association that provides the most state players is Millicent, across the board. For a town of their size, their basketball talent is exceptional!!

Millicent doesn't only have a great playing program, but it's entire basketball program is great!

Refs can blow a good game too!

Peter Seebohm got the recognition he deserves at Albury this year (along with Glenn Mathison from Naracoorte)!

Millicent are definatley producing some very talented basketballers, especially with the population of the town. Congratulations definately to Peter and also Jenny Herbert for the hard work over the past few years.
Everyone knows Shannon and most people know Fergus, but there are some others coming through -
Sam Thompson, Zac Doidge, Alice DeGallio(Spelling?) just to name a few.
Well Done onces again to all involved. Just hope Mount Gambier can get back to where they used to be!

Rhianna is also a good player! Did very well at the Senior Country Carnival!

Word out of Mount Gambier is that Millicent, the Mount and Naracoorte will combine for a winter competition. Should be great for each comp and see the standard rise. Can't wait for a late game somewhere, followed by a 1 hour drive dodging kangaroos on the way home!

it is the way to go - riverland used to all be - barmera, berri, locton, renmark associations - now they have combined at a country level and doing well.

the local towns all play intercomp

greta to see limestone coast juniors at state champs last year - will they be here again this year?

biggest problem for mt gambier is they need more regular exposure to intense comp

they are all big fish in a small pond at the mount - but when in the big smoke they are trimmed right back

they seem to be happy with this at the mount - if they are not prepared to travel - well it won't happen

Yeah the person you were talking bout up there is Kate Butler. She was pretty good but she quit. Rhianna is a gun! So is shannon.

The best thing about millicent basketball from what i have seen is that they play man to man defence, so when there players come to the big smoke they understand the basic priciples. Mount Gambier dont.!

Who is the ITC coach for mount Gambier?

I think the combine comp would be great!! be interesting to see how it all works out.

Shannon's got an awesome leap on him!
Yeah, one Millicent ref did great at Albury - considering that it was their first!

Mount Gambier's ITC coaching is shared between Kym Hammond, Ian Hanel and regularly Pioneers Players!

Young millicent kids are also willing to help out the association-it isn't simply run by the adults. Good to see a country town doing extremely well for themselves- congrats pete and jenny!

Carlo the girl you didnt no how to spell is Ashleigh Galleo. Where did you hear this information about a intertown competition Moses???? Are you talking about Green Triangle? Or would it be played weekly? Where are you hearing this info man. Cant wait to play you again next season mate, the cougars will dominate the competition. ;)

The intertown comp may replace the winter competition completely. It's still in the birthing stage, but apparently there will be no 4-team winter local comp, but instead a 10-11 (numbers?) comp involving the three towns. Should be great.

PS. Don't diss the Panthers. We're the strongest team in the league - we're holding everyone else up from the bottom of the ladder!

i am worrying about where you are getting this information from Moses. who is letting you in on this? i cannot see this happening. i have heard that millicent mite bring down 1-2 teams to play every week. that would be alright but seriously a intertown comp. no 1 would be willing to travel to naracoorte on a wednesday nite to play, some struggle to even turn up to the icehouse.

Hey, I'm only getting info second-hand. Speak to those in the know and you should know who they are. Having travelled from the southern suburbs of Adelaide to the Starplex for basketball, I'd be happy to be play anywhere down here (the distance isn't that far) ..... while the knees hold up, of course! ;-)

what where your thoughts on our shocking 2 point loss in the semi final against roos. Do u think that we were robbed?

PS do u have ne idea who this is?

"Home town corruption" used to be a term that was bandied about when I was a young fella.

I can't say much more for fear of retribution. You copped bad calls but that said, the Roos deserved to be in the grand final. They're a very good team.

As for those Panthers .....

Please tell me u r being sarcastic- hav u seen her play??? She must have played about one hundred times above her standard for u to say that. yeah she is really good- especially for a bottom age but making that comparison to Jackson is absolutley ridiculous- anyone agree?
By the way, jacksons sexuality is up to her.
