This might help remind us all about how big the rivalry with Perth really is.

Yeah, that and its also the grand final rematch.
Nice of Fox to highlight the brawl, but if they truly followed the league, they would know that this rivalry is already regarded as pretty big in the NBL throughout its history, or that its the GF rematch.
Still, nice of them to remember the push and shove.
Wildcat Fan, watch it again. Not only is it mentioned but Gibbo talks about using the loss as motivation this season...

Ahh my bad - Admittedly I didn't watch much of it at all. Probably should have watched it before making a comment. Thanks!
In that case, good on Fox Sports for giving this game a bit of a rev up - Which it deserves!

Would be a better rivalry if Adelaide were as good as last season.

MMmmm.. One of Perths own, developed by Clarke and Wright now in Europe leaving a big hole in Sixers roster.... Terrible stuff Adelaide, NOT….
Trying to build a new team and hopefully after some good stuff showing in the match up against Perth on Friday this is the start of them getting it together after an unsettled season. We saw 2 great games so far despite the issues so although a tough gig they can still get there. Some things don't always work out, players don't' develop and injuries happen. How would Perth be if Beal called to NBA or Childress and McRae went down. That would change it up for the BIG 3 as well… Move on, and watch as it is hotting up. Perth are just lucky they have had the dough to buy in big to back themselves.
I don't think Wright is the worst coach in the NBL. He's the right coach for the right situation and Adelaide isn't it.
