Wortho suspended for ONE GAME

http://nbl.com.au/default.aspx?s=newsdisplay&id=74472

This is a disgrace!

He plead not-guilty. He was found guilty.

How was he given 1 game + 1 game suspended? What and ABSOLUTE joke.

(yes I had money on perth to win the series)

Loughton got the same suspension for much less, ridiculous.

Whats the point in asking for a plea? I wonder what he would have got if he plead guilty. A $500 fine?

I just heard the news on ABC radio. What a pathetic decision.

Another example of Sydney running (or ruining) the comp.

It was aggressive, pre-meditated and unnecessary (Loughton's was reckless but not pre-meditated IMO). Anything less than a single game suspension would've been too light, but I thought 1+1 was appropriate.

I'm expecting the home team to win each game and Sydney to carry through 2-1.

I wouldve thought 2 games for sure

He made every attempt to take Redhage out of the game

Is the NBL trying to hand Sydney another title so they dont face extinction?

1+1 is fine. It's two games anyway, just with one suspended.

The NBL isn't trying to give Sydney a title, don't be ridiculous.

It's a man's game people. Grow some balls. So he hit someone, these things happen. He got caught and got 1 game. 5 years ago he would be playing tonight. Any more than 1 game would have been ridiculous IMO. It really wasn't that bad. If he was smart enough he would have gotten him off the ball. Just ask Panther
