Does anyone know last night's results and can give a rundown of the games (I'm particularly intersted in hearing about the mens game)? Cheers

Here's what I wrote about the men's game in another thread:

Went out to see the men's reserves game and it was pretty entertaining. Marcus Ng had some amazing moves in the first half. Todd Smyth hit some tough shots as both teams were neck and neck for much of the game. McKenzie struggled with his shot for much of the game, and then came good near the end, hitting a three or two, and 4/4 FT. Sturt were down in the final minute, Vaughan hit a three and then a foot-on-the-line two in a quick passage of play, before the Panthers staved them off with free throws.
South won 66-62.

Sturt's post play didnt seem as effective as the semi final 2 weeks earlier, where they dominated, and their pressure defense (which included a large amount of zone) was rarely seen last night.
South's game returned to the form which saw them dominate most teams this season, lots of run and gun, and excellent post entry, dish, and plenty of range. South playing at their peak was the only team going to get close to sturt, who only lost twice the whole season.

South were brilliant. Defensively they were guns. I reckon they might be the greatest reserves team ever assembled. "The post" you are very smart to notice Souths brilliant post dominace, the way they pound the ball inside is fantastic. Sturt were tough but South were always going to win the game. After the first quarter they made the defensive adjustments needed and kept sturt out of the paint. While Sturts regular season record suggests they were the best team all year South were clearly going to win from day one of the season. They lost to sturt in round one by 3 points and beat them in round 2 by 12.
