U183 Southern cheating in finals

I play in the div3 competition and during the finals series i have seen at least 5 ex u18 div2 players playing in the div3 competition. Last night they played Forestville Eagles and they were too strong for them. They did this last season and they beat Sturt in the semi finals to make summer season grand final. Sturt who were unbeaten the whole season. My concern is that the teams that have played really hard all season will lose out like Forestville last night. Another reason of concern is that it makes the whole finals series a big joke if they are going to win the competition. Is there any way i can report this matter to BASA so that Southern get eliminated for cheating and Forestville makes finals by default.

I play for North div2 and i saw #50 playing. When he played against us in the div2 comp he was undisputably the best player in the team scoring over 20 points. I found it outrageous to see him play div3. There were also three other div2 players and i agree with anon that they need to be reported for cheating in the finals. If someone lets this go on they will make a team that deserves to win to be eliminated.

Thats just wrong no team should do that. Thats unfair for the competition and they should be banned for it. Iam an u16 div2 coach and i would find it unfair if one of the teams i was playing dropped a couple of div 1 players just because the div 1 team did not make finals. I think the club should be fined if what has been posted is correct.

The funny thing i have noticed is that the starting five i played against in the beginning of the season is different from what it is right now. Four div2s and 1 div3 player. Another thing i noticed was that the starting guards were not playing in the team last night. That is weird because the div4 team also made finals. I have a feeling that they have dropped a couple of the div3 players to div4 team to make the team stronger. That is great i think they want to win every competition in the u18s.

Its true they are attempting to win most of the competition but Forestville 1 have taken the div2 comp. But do you think this should be happening (Southern dropping players) in the first place. Southern disgust me and if i am going to play against them i might start a fight.

In fact, the Southern 18 div 2s finished last. Maybe their coach was spending more time in the opposition huddles than his own.

I believe most of the 'dropped division 2 players' have played division 3 all year. They played summer season in div 2 and hated it, so a few of them were going to quit, but the div 3 coach convinced them to play in the lower division where they could have a bit more fun with their mates. And with the star div 2 player that was actually dropped, I believe that it is within the rules, so get over it.

The Forestville team that played the Southern team had beaten them twice before in the season. The Forestville team was stronger than the original Southern team. Forestville to me has been one of the teams that have worked very hard to make finals. A few weeks ago they nearly beat Norwood1 which finished on top of the ladder, the game finished in a draw. I think they were shocked when they found out it was not he same team they played earlier on in the season. Forestville did deserve to win the game.

Jimmy de bas if that is what you are saying what about the players who were playing in the original div3 team. If the div3 coach wanted them to have fun what about his original team. Did they have to quit to create vacancies in the team. If i was playing for the team i would not want some player to take my spot in the name of "fun". The star player as you say i am sure he has not played the required games. Because i played against them in round 20. The coach should have been concerned in developing the players he had in the team. Southern to me has changed the way the game is played, teams bending the rules just to win the competition. So are we able to get a few div2s or div1s to make our team stronger?

Seriously waht are we teaching our basketballers. What kind of a behaviour is Southern developing. I think their mentality is to be the best and they are going to do basically anything to get to the top.
Teams that have lost an opportunity to make finals because of Southern players getting dropped is Sturt. They were doing very well and in round 20 they lost their game against Southern causing them to make finals. What Southern has done has angered a lot of teams. Now that they are playing North2 which to me is the most improved team in the comp will they also be eliminated by a stronger div 3 Southern. What a disgrace for a team to know that they are cheating and still go on playing.

I play for North2 in div3 and i would definitely hate it if Southern beat us and go through to the grand final. No one really knows the pain we have gone through. The whole season we have done a lot of fitness and skill training all season. We finished 7th in the summer season and this season we finished 3rd. I would hate it if we play a bunch of div2 players and we lose. They should be eliminated so that all the teams havea fair go. I know BASA allows players to come down but not the whole team.

Lets get a few things straight from the start:

1 - has anyone approached a Southern D3 player to suss out what has actually occurred?

2 - has anyone approached anyone from southern to find out what has actually occurred?

3 - My mail is that one palyer was dropped for disciplinary reasons and the rest of the team followed him.

Furthermore, does anyone know whether the div 3 players went up to div 2, rather than have to "quit" as another poster suggested?

I come from an age when the club was bigger than any individual and all players strived to be their best - some players (from a variety of clubs) these days dont want to do the hard yards and work through the lean times - they expect glory and bitch and moan when the dont get glory.

If i'm correct, the players who went down to d3 have forgotten more than they were taught in preious years.

From an optimist point of view, i couldn't imagine anything better than playing the southern team and beating them... How about you others fire up and kick their ass?

Thats a good point Pickles Housemate. One of those teams that might beat them are Norwood1 and North1. Both teams as i know only have seven players in their teams. Southern has a full house of about 10 or 11 players. Those two teams might beat Southern but North2 are a bit weaker and i think they deserve to at least play the last qualifying finals to enter the grand finals. #50 playing div3 thats a bit low. I have seen him play and i am sure he will be playing div1 next season is that really in the spirit of competition.

This incident is refelecting really bad for the club. I know most teams in the club play very hard e.g Southern div1. The players and the coach should be ashamed of what they did. They are soft in that they could not toghen it out in the div2 comp and left the div3 players make finals on their own. I wonder what happened to the other div3 players. Because none of them would want to leave the team and play in the div2 team which finished at the bottom of the table

The whole div 2 team has not come down... it is one player who was dropped for disciplinary reasons. And you say that you would hate losing to a team of div 2's, well when you are playing finals basketball, the word losing shouldn't even enter your mind. If you have worked as hard as you say you have, then you should win. Stop whinging and get on with the game. It sonds to me like you are already creating excuses for losing.

What a liar you are Jimmy i think you ae in the Southern team. One player more like 4+ players. Everyone knows about it. Its not creating excuses its a matter of putting things right. I think Southern should be dropped and Forestville brought back. Its not about losing its trying to be fair to the weaker teams. You cannot be sitting there and saying that what you are doing is right. Now the team is bigger, faster and stronger. Last season (summer) the team pulled out the biggest upset the reason for this is that they dropped two players for finals. I think that Souther should be stopped before they start making it a habit.

Sturt was knocked out bacuse of those div2 players playing in div 3. You, under BASA rules must play 5 games (sitting on the beanch for the entire game doesn't count)to be able to play for a different divison. I think it is high time BASA got there act together and followed the rules they set down. Shame on you Southern, BASA and shame on you jimmy de bas

Ah, but AJ, I think I need to remind you of a comment you posted not too long ago....

'No i play for sturt and BASA dosn't allow that to happen. The penalty for any team caught playing and player who has not played the 5-7 games in Div 3 is a 0-20 forfiet. Southen as much as i hate them, were smart and got 2 or 3 Div 2 players, to player the required amount of games so they can play div 3 finals.

AJ, 31/08/05'

So, you admit there that Southern were actually smart in pulling off this move. You admit that the dropped player/s played the right amount of games to qualify and you also admitted that you play for Sturt, the team that unfortunately missed the finals... bit sour eh?

if southern ensure they qualified those players correctly the only 'smart' thing they've done is learnt from past years when they've had teams disqualified for cheating. As far as sportsmanship goes - this is not on even if it was under the guise of disciplinary reasons, but then doesn't surprise me that it's southern. I've also seen them do similar things in lower division seniors. Good luck to the other teams left - go out determined to show them how to play basketball as a true team and win fairly. Focus on the win - then stick it up them after.

What i meant to say is that if a higher div team isn't going to make the finals then i think it is unfair that they can drop 4 players so they have a better chance in the lower div. It should only work for lower players going into higher divs. I reckon at the half way point of the season what ever div you are in you stay there. NO EXCEPTIONS

Instead of making this into a soap opera, just shut up and get on with playing. I guarentee you all that Southern are happy to produce scoresheets and information that support that these players have been playing most of the last season. i think a lot of you need to grow up!

Teams dropping 4+ players so that they can have a chance thats just not fair. Even if you play for Southern you have to know that some of these things are wrong no arguments about it.

Thats it the u182s players should have stayed in div2. If most of the players would have stayed in div2 they probably would have finished at a higher position like in summer season.They are good team like the draw against North who they could have beaten. So there is no question about their ability to play they just wanted an easy way out.

As a junior I remember in a comp I played in,
That there were a maximum games before you can play in a lower division. In that comp once you have played 3 games in Div 1 you are in-eligible for div 2 or lower,etc .. 3 is probably a bit harsh but 14 would be reasonable. At that stage the finals positions aren't known, any any team hedging there bets by qualifying in lower divs risks not making the higher finals. I think it would stop this last minute can't make the finals so 'help' out in the lower divs, that all clubs can do now it's within the rules.
Any club who doesn't take
the opportunity are being 'nice guys' and we know where they finish.
(p.s. I don't condone the practice, nor do I revile it its just part of the game live with it or define rules to control it)

Southern are a reasonable team, im pretty sure half their team played summer in the 3s from memory, but we played them last round b4 finals. We finished last, they were arrogant and extremly rude to us. Then again this situation is like wot is going on in the ashes atm with england substituting a bad fieldsman for the top of the range.

I play in 18 2's for another club, and the only reason I believe the Southern 18 2's team performed so poorly this season is because their best players from this side were not playing in the second part of the season. I don't know the details, I just know from playing them and seeing other scores from other games they played that they were turned into almost easybeats in Div 2, probably for the benefit of the Div 3 team.

I know from experience that being switched between divs mid-season is disruptive and when I did I was told I had to play a minimum of 3 games for the new team to be eligible for finals.

I know for a fact that #50 has not played the required games to play finals. I think in round 19 Southern were playing North2 and they lost by 1 point without #50. I have a feeling they knew they were going to lose even with a team of 2-3 div 2 players and so they decided to gat the best player in div2(#50) to enhance their chances.
I think they were aware that they were not going to win the comp and so they recruited #50. And Jimmy players are pt in their respective division because of their skill level. How stupid or unfair would it be a div1 playing in a div3 competition. I think the coaching staff put you in your respective divisions because they knew you had the ability to compete in that division and win. So u18 div3 team i think you are a disgrace to your club and district junior basketball community for community for competing at a level lower than your calibur.

I wouldn't normally buy in to this, but I was on the other court at the time of this game.

On an official club letter head, write your complaint and send it via the club secretary to Colin Thompson or Brad Biddle.

You won't get anything achieved in here.

The match is over, however the result isn't necessarily final.

I will add one more thing. On the bottom of the score sheet there is a little place to sign if you protest the outcome of the match because of a technicallity. You are meant to sign it before the referees do.

What ever happened to the old saying "If you ain't got nothing nice to say, say nothing at all!"

From what I have read on here, these players were dropped for disciplnary reasons in the summer season. This means that they have played the entire winter season in div 3. This was the coaches or Club's decision. If you have an issue with a Club following rules set down by BASA, then complain to BASA or get your Club delegate to, don't come on here and bitch and moan....Do something about it.

Its all a scam by Southern they do not know the meaning of fair sports. The coach has shocked me by getting 4+ players from div2. From a club's perspective i would think that the coach would have been a little more considerate of his original players and not drop them. Its coaches like him that make a lot of players quit district basketball because of their selfish ambitions and desires to win. We have to remember as much as it is important to win we want the players to have fun playing the game they love playing.

I play in the div3 comp and we have played them three times and during this time i have seen the team change every time we play against them. I have also seen players getting dropped to div4 who were according to me good div3 players for div2 players. If the players were dropped for disciplinary reasons then they should have been pulled back to div2. I do not believe that 4+ players can be going down because of disciplinary reasons. How come its only the Southern team that does this. So what about the original div 3 players did they also get dropprd for disciplinary reasons???

I believe the Tigers have also done this in another age group. They forfeited their last U14 Div 1 Boys match and the word is most of the team fronted on the Saturday morning to play a Div 2 game. The 2's weren't going to make the finals but could be a common theme within the club. Or maybe the 1's couldn't be bothered travelling to Starplex for their final match!

They made two teams which deserved to be in the finals be eliminated namely Sturt and Forestville. Those two teams have had the very same team the whole of the two seasons unlike lieke Southern which has had about six players drop down from division 2 to 3.

ooh someone thinks they are smart if you do not have an input just do not post your opinions. We are discussing a matter that will affect teams one time or the other. For example if you do not make finals because a club allowed teams to acquire lots of players from a higher division. As you all know people are put in a division because of skill. Moving down to a lower division of lower skill is something we all do not want to see. If SA is going to produce great players BASA should not be allowing this kind of behaviours from teams. We should develop a system that helps control this.

I have just looked at the sportiingpulse website and i saw that the results of the game was Southern 78-36 Forestville.
During the season first game between the two teams Southern won 47-42 a five point difference.
The second game they played Southern lost to Forestville 57-40 a 17 point difference.
Forestville during the season could beat Southern convincingly but after the Southern team acquired div 2 players they lost by 42 points. So now do you all see the effect of changing divisions has on the competition.

It's a bit like Greg Chappell getting his brother to bowl under arm - was allowed with the rules at that time but was condemned as not being in the spirit of the game.

While record books might say they(if they in fact do) win the premiership they have to live with themselves knowing it meant nothing.

Playas only but do you accept the finals game was a blow out 42 point difference thrashing team that beat them a few weeks earier by about 17 points. That proves they have skill plus except for one original div 3 player and four div 2 players.

Another interesting thing i saw was the red haired guy was the div 3 star player and after div2 players got dropped his numbers have dropped tremendously. He was playing pretty awesome game but now he struggles to score or even have a bigger part in the game. in the summer season grandfinal i think he scored nearly all te points for Southern.

Its just div 3 not ABA or NBA or NBL and im pretty sure u r allowed to recruit and change the team throughout the season before finals its what they do in every other sport y not basketball, im a football player myself and players are recruited/ dropped from high grades all the time, Whats the difference. I mean Norwood are a whole div 2 team and im pretty sure they have just lost one game and they are a whole team why dont u windge about that........ and target them 2 not just southern

That's Sturt's bad luck Sabretooth, Sturt even if they won wouldn't have made it, due to head to head Southern and F/Ville beat them by more, in Forestville's case, Forestville won both times...

"z", Forestville could handle the pressure, they knew to make the finals a few weeks back they had to at least draw with the top team, they did, they got much better, no Southern stack their team, so they can win, that just screws everyone's hard work

I suggest go through the Div 3 fixtures and look back, at the major turns in margins within the last 10 weeks you'll notice a major change took place somewhere in their, try Round 17 maybe...

Your all a bunch of winers, the guys who got dropped haveplayed the legam amount of games in div 3 , since thats where they started another the div 3 original boys have been brought up to to div 3 so forestville stop complaining they all started the season in div 3 and they cam back down for reasons which do not concern every one of this topic, forestville lost bad luck they were not good enough and good luck to Southern they can see they cheated all along, but the fact of the matter is 18 Div 1 tigers team won state champs because they supposedly cheated div three's are in the final because they have supposedly cheated and so are the div fours.

I think we should call this thread over. The reason is there are teams that are capable to play against Southern in the finals and probably beat them. The teams are Norwood1 former div2 team, summer season champs North1 and North2. This games will be nearly as good as an actual div2 contest. All this teams have good speed athleticism and skill that will be able to match Southern. Another thing Southern lack in height.

At least Norwood1 and North1 have an extra incentive to play very hard to make sure that they win the game and avoid playing Southern. Throughout the season this two teams have only lost against each other and were the untouchables of the competition. Now with a stronger Southern they will play much harder and not cruise to the grandfinal without any real opposition apart from themselves.

Guys

I can not believe there have been so many posts on this subject.

They have not broken the rules, are not the first Club to do it, won't be the last and have probally kept some players for next year that would have left.

Is what they have done any worse than Clubs that actively poach players from other Clubs to achieve the same result and that is have some success whether that be Division 1 or Division 5.

Cheers

The benefit of this from a div3 perspective is that it will be interesting to see who wins the title now with a stronger Southern side. All the teams still have a chance of winning for example Southern lost to North2 in rd 20. The only problem Southern probably have is lack of height. Pretty short compared to Norwood and both North teams. That is why i find it hard that anyone should be posting bad thingd about Southern. Probably every team has poached a good player to play for them from whatever division. Even though its morally wrong it brings about competition.
North1 and Norwood1 have dominated the competition 20 wins a piece why doesn't anybody take that into consideration both very good teams they are. The only problem with the other teams is that they struggle a lot with injury concerns like North1 and Norwood1 they currently have six fit players unlike Southern with about ten players.

well i have just read through these posts and i am thourourly disgusted at the accusations and comments that have been made in this thread with no factual evidence to back them up. i know the dropped players on a personal level and you will find that they have been playing together since u10's (roughly) they had all gone to school together untill recently two dropped out in their final year from school, so the only time these very good mates got a good chance to socialise and catch up was at basketball. one player was dropped for disiplinary reasons, and it was awful. for them basketball was playing together, "the boys", and they felt as if they didn't want to play because it wasn't the same. when the opportunity came for them to play together along with some other mates for school of course the other three boys took the offer. they all played the required amount of games, hence not cheating, and it wasn't a ploy to win the finals but to play together and do what they love doing. i can see how some may have sour grapes but i personally think that you are a bunch of babies. they did not break the rules so what is ur prblem. these boys actually played more than the required games so once again, what is your problem?! you should count yourselves lucky that these boys didn't play from the start of the season because i tell you that if the offer had come up at the start of the season, the boys would have taken it and wooped your ass from the start! maybe then you would have worked a bit harder and pushed yourselves to the limits instead of bitching about in now like little "GIRLY MEN". please do me a favour and grow up. hey, forestville may have played well throughout the season but when they played southern, they obviously didn't play well enough, and the BETTER team won on the day. i respect and value other clubs but after reading some of these posts, i can't beleive how low some people can go when they don't win. they did nothing wrong so GET OVER IT!!!! good luck to all teams in the finals rounds and the team that plays the best will win.

Unfortunately a win is a win and a loss is a loss. Commiserations to the Forestville side but there is nothing you can do about it now. As mentioned above you had your chance to sign the sheet at the game to protest but you didn't.
However don't think for one minute that I am supporting what this team has done. It is low and despicable but some people will do anything to be successful.
Players should be assigned to teams according to their skill level and not the amount of friends in their team. If a player wants to play in a lower division purely for the sake of friendship then he is either nuts or soft. The only time i've heard of this happening was a) at the start of a season and b) in a girls team. Which leads me to believe that all those players that dropped themselves into a lower division are girly.
Maybe you should prove me wrong fellas and admit that you guys stacked your div 3 team because your club is crap and can't win a final the fair way.

Junior,
I may be a prat, but i'm just saying what everyone else is. It was a low move and nobody except for Southern likes it. They are certainly not winning any friends by doing it. It is just another desperate attempt by Tigers to relive the glory days they used to have when they actually had a strong club. They had to combine with Southern Suns just to make team numbers and keep themselves financially afloat and they still suck. They are no longer a club worth mentioning at potential rivals and they hate it. Which is why they try every dirty move to get a final, sad really, but like I said before "It is low and despicable but some people will do anything to be successful."

At least now the team that deserves to go to the finals is though not a team full of losers. At least its the final that all people wanted to see two teams that worked really hard all season North1 and Norwood1 fighht it out for the title. It should be a great match.

I hate to say this but know there are two good teams in the final. i felt terrible when Southern beat North2 but after watching the game i saw Southern had 7 or 8 players. Its not that Southern are the best team. They lack height unlike Norwood1 and thats why they lost on Sunday. I know how it feels to play against Norwood1 and i think you did well to have a respectable score. If you made finals i believe it would have been a fast paced game. 2 teams that predominantly play a fast break game. Better lack next year and i am sorry for your loss. For everyone else please stop bagging them they played very well to get where they got to.

Southern's loss just proves that there are stronger teams in the div3 competition that can handle the aggression and speed of Southern. Can any Southern players tell me why they lost the game.

If you ask me about it i think they lost the game in the big men contest. Norwood1 got a lot of offensive rebounds and Southern big men could not stop them. It was a more even contest of the guards. I think height won the gae n that day.

Maybe Southern don't care and have other things in their lives that they worry about. Seems some people are just on here to stir the pot and need to find some other things to do with their time! It is over and time to move on.

Guys this post is dead. If you would like to know about a person's identity then start another thread about it and people may reveal clues to their real names.

For those whom are interested I have worked out most teams grand finals standing;

Sturt - 12 Prem - 9 R/Ups
Boys 6 Prem - 5 R/Up
Girls 6 Prem - 4 R/Up

North - 8 Prem - 6 R/Ups
Boys 4 Prem - 4 R/Up
Girls 4 Prem - 2 R/Up

F/Ville 7 Prem - 7 R/Ups
Boys 5 Prem - 2 R/Up
Girls 2 Prem - 5 R/Up

Norwood 7 Prem - 4 R/Ups
Boys 5 Prem - 2 R/Ups
Girls 2 Prem - 2 R/Up

West 3 Prem - 1 R/Up
Boys 1 Prem - 1 R/Up
Girls 2 Prem - Nil R/Up

South 1 Prem - 7 R/Ups
Boys 1 Prem - 5 R/Up
Girls Nil - 2 R/Up

W/Ville 1 Prem - 4 R/Ups
Boys Nil - 4 R/Up
Girls 1 Prem - 2 R/Up
Comments Again we see the Fab Four Dominate - Sturt - North - F/Ville and Norwood. South would be diappointed with only the 16.5 Boys winning a prem and with 7 teams as runner-ups, W/Ville only prem came in the Under 21.2 womens. West would be more than happy with their results 16.1 Boys and U16.1 Girls Prems and U14.1 Boys R/Up. Great result with the number of Div 1 teams involved. The winners and r/ups results are now on the sturt website.

I have checked the results again and found that Sturt won 11 prem and R/Up 9 times. I made a mistake when going through the results.

y'all not wrong that happens i played u14 div 3 last season nd sturt had a half div 2 half div 4 team playing in the state championships in 2005 aswell as Torrens Valley had their div 2 team playing in the div 3 comp i overheard this and wasn't sure if it was true but i found out for sure wen i was moved up to my clubs div 2 team bcoz 1 of their bigs had gon ova seas we versed torrens valley and it was the exact same team that we had versed in the div 3 state champs i think we would of won state champs if it wasnt for those 2 teams seeing that we came 3rd. i later went to the nationals with the div 1 team so i guess that state champs didnt really matta (kinda)

Hey moi. I played in div 2 during that season. Well i can tell you what happened. Southern are not cheating. Some players that played in div 2 quit cause they were mucking arround. All that i can say, the coach of the div 2 boys did not have any control of the boys. Div 3 coach who is a wanker and i hate (honestly) took them cause he thought they could go on and play under 20's div 1. some other players were dropped from the 2's cause they never came to trainings. GET THE DRIFT MATE!!
Southern were not cheating. Those ex 2's were magnificent players. Also those players were replaced in the 2's. So there. NO cheating. Keep on trying mate.
