It looks like that World 5 will struggle to contain Anstey. I see lots of D-Mac drives & dishes for Anstey, or everyone just feeding the post.

Glad to see Willie got a starting nod. Top marks for those who voted for him!

Good to see our SA boys, Newley and Jingles, in the Aussie starting 5. Also good to see that Willie is in the World 5.

Powell should be in the starting 5, definitely one of the top 3 players in the league. Fairly Recently Brian Georgian said Powell is the best player in the league.

52 Cans,
Not completely disagreeing with you but if you happened to notice, Cattalini has been playing the '4' the last 2 years!

Ticket sales are very disappointing around 3000 tickets sold, looking to get around 4000+, what a joke, besides us who follow basketball, who else knows about the game? A absolute disgrace from the NBL.

I'm afraid I have disagree, Kent Brockman. I think it'll be a really good event. We may not have a 3 point comp or a legends game BUT we do have a dunk comp with names like Willie Farley and Carlos Powell and a game with names like: MacKinnon, D-Mac, Newely, Jingles, Powell, Tucker, Farley and Groves.

Yeah just noticed that there were no queens in there..
What do you think though, this Aussie All Star team would have whipped boy goorj's World Champs team in my opinion...
Ingles is not world class, but then again, neither was Hinder.

I know everyones probably heard this a million times but I hate the fact that there are 2 SA boys in the starting 5 and neither of them play for us......
