Anyone know iof theres any coverage of the Brazil V australia game, and also what time it is, is it tommorow for us or the day after? I am a bit apprehensive of us playing them before the tournament, dont wanna give Brazil a good read opf how we play... we need o surprise them with different rotations and play styles in the real game

Let's hope Maric hits 10 threes and we lose by 20 points, should give Brazil a false sense of security.
if ya really wanna confuse them, have Aaron Baynes hit shots next to the ring, Alex Maric hit free throws, and David Barlow do something useful
If patty mills rode a donkey onto the court that also would make them confused

I make the following suggestions
1. Speak to the Brazilian players using a fake Spanish/Portuguese accent (throwing in a few actual Spanish/Portuguese words)
2. Reverse the defence order; have the center guard the PG etc. SF will be forced to double team the center.
3. Get Alec Maric to pretend he is actually Ray Borner, and Mark Worthington to pretend he is actually Larry Senstock. Brazil will have no idea. By implication, this would make Peter Crawford the newage Tonny Jensen.
4. Call every player on Brazil 'Idiotino', e.g. your guarding idiotino, no I'm guarding idiotino
5. Play 5 out offence with Delly, Mills, Gibson, Newley and Ingles

Thread got a bit amusing quickly.
A, when referring to a post by the ID, the last three digits can be a better way than the first three which might not narrow it down.
7:30 France time 22nd July so add 8 hours to that for Australia so it's 3:30am start on the 23rd in Oz
France beat Brazil 78-74 overnight, Tony Parker with 22.

The question was 'Brazil/Aus.. Any coverage?' and given they scored 87 points on us Id suggest there was very little!
