MAN i reckon there a too many to choose from in this age group. But i do think that norlunga will have a sick team with the couple of players that have joined the club recently, does anyone agree

yeah he was vic country captain, however he would have been lucky to get ten minutes against some of the better teams in perth, and barely played in the gf. i mean hes good, but not necessarily outstanding..
how embaressing will it be to have a close game to norlunga! *shudder*

Is there any reason to think this hemmings guy will be any better than steve and chief who played for sa metro and will be u18 this year too. Why would he be ready to take on chris, aj, dodman, long etc

But he will give southern some height and they will be a tough team with their imports.

Big Steve has a heart of good and if he could he would fly like an Eagle for Forestville. He works his ass and heart off, yet he eternally is repaid with disrespect... leave him alone.
He is one of the many players that has come from another club to Forestville nad has improved beyond what most people thought he would.
Keep going Steve!

Well what can you say, Big steve is a great player. If you think he is overated you try to stop him when seals or catches the ball in the post. He plays his huge heart out every time he steps onto the court. Dont have a go at someone like steve considering you dont hide behind your name. Big Steve is through and through forestville and is such a gentle giant(seen him coach his under 10). Great kid!

BTW, is it not time to stop naming Juniors in these forums like Paul Arnott has stated? Especially when vile personal opinions and insults are being hurled around by so called "know it alls" not only in this thread but also in another U18s thread??

Is this "Big Steve" from Forestville the guy with the afro kinda hair? Cos if he is he isn't really that big and he isn't as great as everyone is saying. He's good I admit, but he isn't unstopable. Just my opinion...

sounds like sour grapes, SASI may have political motives, but state is a true representation of your ability in the BASA comp, and is not tied to SASI at all.

e.g. i played state, but was never asked to SASI, a team mate of mine, been at SASI for 2-3 years, cut from state.

If you dont try-out then you cant knock those that had more balls than you, if you dont try-out then whinge then you are afriad of failure!

SASI may have gotten rid of some of the wrong players, but state shows who the better players in the league are. at least leave your name if your gona bag someone.

I thought the topic was who are the good players for U18's not lets bag players from U18's. There is so much stuff I could say about some of those players but honestly who really cares! Everyone should stop bagging them and just say positive stuff.
Southern have a heaps good team but though browny and sam are good players, there are more than 2 players in that team who can rip up the court!

hemmo isnt actually a post player. He often plays as a guard as well. He is versitile. Just cos he doesnt hog the ball and score 30 points each game, it doesnt make him overated. Have you seen him play d or how many assists he gives off?? hmmm, thought not.

Totally agree with what ur saying pickles. Its not always the ppl who score the points who are the superstars. There hav been many assist kings who don't score many points at all but set their teammates up to score. These players get overlooked by people because they aren't the ones putting the ball in the ring

Excuse me yepyep- what about assist queens? I know this post is about guys but still!

I played 16G div1 for f'ville a couple of yrs ago and we had the "assist queen" from the country. She fed it to us players in the perfect spot, under the basket, so many times, threading the ball through two or more defenders most times. Her vision would have been probably twice as good as most male players going around in district at the moment.

What ur saying is rite but dnt forget about the girls!

great game with spectators sitting on Crt 2 watching the game being played on Crt 3! Greta atmosphere.

Hemmings - passes far more than he shoots - great drawer of defence and finding open man.

I'd have him for work experience anytime! ;)

hemmings is a good team player. He has the ablity to draw and pass and find inside targets (not so much outside shooters cause he is going towards the ring on the move). He doesn't really have a jumpshot, spot up or off the driblle same with his three point shot. But he post games seems to be very underated he can post up any guard as big or bigger than him. He doesn't make quick moves but uses his counters and fakes well. He is a decent defensive player, he has good one on one containment but his help D and double teamings wasn't there when i saw them play. I would have to say he is one of the best players in the comp though. Having said that out of the best players in the SA comp Molitor, Brown, Slagghekke, Seebohm, Dodman and himself he was the worst performer. Which is okay seeing as he is bottom age and next yer will be SA met best player. As for this steve kid, yeah he is a solid post player and can get it done in the SA comp but at Nationals? i don't think so. Cheif is bottom age and has better hands, with a more diverse game i agree with that the state team is the ten best available players are taken away!
