I wondered why Panther was so quiet after this weeks game.
Last week south had the ABL in the bag!

I wouldn't mess with Cam. He has ways and means of catching up with ya (g'day by the way!).

Did it look anything like this?

Like the way he caught up with Matt Alexanders elbow???

Dear Sweet revenge

When i ran into Bayliss on Sat night, it was neither a cheap shot nor intentional. Both of us were going for a loose ball, i happened to get their first and as Bayliss was diving for the ball i turned my body. His head actually hit my ass (thats why its currently corked) and there was nothing malice in it at all. I went up to Souths coaching staff after the game to see how he was and they informed me that he had to go to hospital. This is unfortunate, but to suggest it was a cheap shot and intentional, and that im a Dead Man walking by an anonymous post is cowardly...If you wish to personally follow through with your suggestion you know where i am. Also you refer to these other incidents i have apparently been involved in. I was involved in 1 incident with Souths several years ago and that is it.. hardly makes me dirty.
I hope Jason recovers fully and is back playing ASAP.

Sweet Revenge,
Posts such as this are extremely counter productive for the hoops forum, the league and all players involved. No matter how ugly an incident may appear on the court it should be left to the officials to deal with, after all, they have loads of experience.

I hope Panther makes a speedy recovery - no doubt he will be out for blood but that's how he plays week in week out.

PS: Whether Cameron is the dirtiest player in the league is unknown. He certainly is a great guy off the court.

What has Panther hurt?

I'm sorry Tom obviously you have no concern at all for the welfare of any player, where were you when the Dave Bowley topic started???

(Mod: Comment removed. I have been informed that the statement was factually incorrect.)

It's obvious that Wood made contact with Panthers head so how is that not a foul? It would be very interesting to see some video footage but i'm sure Forestville would have misplaced the tape already.
Woody you may be a top bloke off the court but after watching you play and hearing other stories there's no doubt you play outside the rules of the game. Explain to us why Alexander and you got in a tangle in a preseason game if you don't agree? How about the head butt on Kosmider?

Mod - perhaps a more appropriate title for this thread can be found? Perhaps "Wood-Baylis clash".

I saw the incident on Saturday night and I am a VERY biased South Adelaide Supporter. ;-)

To me it looked like a very unfortunate accident.
No way did it look deliberate, Just two men going for the ball with 110% commitment as they do and sadly JB came off worse. The play continued on and we may criticise the reffs for that, but I have to be honest and say JB was not in FURTHER danger from the play and the game was stoped at an appropriate time. IMO


Hope you are Ok JB are are able to be back on court very soom.

that's cheap Anon (#74460). This is a man's game can't we all stop acting like big girl's blouses. JB plays hard and in no way shape or form did he deserve his injury on saturday. We'll see what karma does to you..

correction - #74450

In response to Sweet Revenge 74433: When the Bowley incident happened i thought some of the comments made were over zealous and i didn't wish to contribute to the sensationalising of what i agree was an ugly incident.

I have a similar approach to this case: Ugly incident but I don't like to see irrational posts turn it into something that it wasn't.

I was at the game and saw the event. Mum above is correct!

Both players dived hard and fairly at the ball, and both landed on the floor like bombs exploding, and at first glance it looked like both had suffered serious damage or injury as it was like two charging rhinos at the ball. Accidents happen and that is what occurred in this instance.

Sweet Revenge, your post is insulting, defamatory and imo, libelous! It does nothing to the two competitors involved, their clubs nor for the Game of basketball. Go back under your rock and stay there, or join your words at Bolivar Sewerage Works.

Wasn't at the game, didn't see the incident, but how does the contact of one player with another's head imply that it must've been a foul?

Dunno Isaac, but surely my suggestion of a more appropriate title deserves another basketball icon. I'm hanging out for my third icon in 1000 posts!

(Mod: If I give you too many, you might stop trying!)

Whats Up Moses...
Whats the update on the Mount????

Not a lot, Woodman. I'm rarely there as work is taking me to all corners of the globe at the minute (if you can call Adelaide, Bordertown, Broken Hill, Berri, Murray Bridge and the Kimberley that).

Is good to see you're still stirring up trouble. Can't wait to see JB's version of events. Knowing him, this is all just a storm in a teacup - part and parcel of playing a man's game.

Sweet Revenge - mmm where do I start ??? This is a mans game,it's physical.. As they say, if you don't like (or can't handle) the heat, stay out of the kitchen.. Toughen up.. Two blokes going hard for the ball, one comes off second best.. Unfortunately that happens when you have guys playing with their heart on their sleave and putting 100% into everything they do on the court..
As for Woody being the dirtiest player, your kinding arn't you ? I've known this bloke personally for many many years and have seen many many games he's played in, not just in SA.. He plays hard and certainly with his heart mate... Do yourself a favour Mr Revenge, Know your players before you start slagging them... It's pathetic !!

Hope Panther is ok..
