Sixers games this week

How do people think we will fair?
From the sounds of it Cairns are struggling to find some sink but Brisbane have been solid in all outings.
Will be good to see our new lineup, is everyone playing for us though? anyone know?

From what Ive heard, Chappell may not be playing but everyone else including Maher should be right.

What's up with Chappell at this early stage? Hope we haven't found another Wheeler.

Heard that Chappell is recovering from back spasms - which were from being on planes for an extended period of time. Nothing to worry about just giving him some time to make sure it's all good before he plays.

All players were at junior games and practices .. really great for the kids (and parents and coaches etc) Generates a lot of interest , excitment, those juniors that had a bit of practice with them want to go and watch them now.....

A good crowd to pre-season games would be 1500-2000. I would expect more like 1000-1500 at the weekend.

Sorry to double post - my last post sounds a little negative.

I went last year and there were maybe 1300 odd people there. It was really good not only because we won but because there was a great air of expectation around and you could just rock up at the start of the game and grab a seat 3-4 rows from the court. I thought it was well worth it for $5 and one of the best games I saw all season (not much competition really).

After last season, I can't help being concerned if small niggly injuries before the season even starts seems so much more exaggerated. If cramped conditions on planes are a problem, then Admin need to ensure that he gets emergency exit seats. In fact the 6 tallest players should always try to get them.

Not always enough to go around and hard to guarantee. Flying isn't usually much fun for players (or anyone really).

There are regulations that if you are over a certain height (200cms?) you can get an emergency row guaranteed.
