What games are on this weekend?
I know of the annual Cougar Cup between McKinnon V Keysborough
and Pakenkam V Warranmbool.
Hume City V Melbourne in SCM was on tonight I believe. Anybody know the
scores?

Diamond Valley and Chelsea played Monday and ended 64-64. Both teams missing some guys. Scrappy game.
Central District Lions (Adelaide CBL Team)play Mildura Heat (Big V D1) next weekend in Mildura they play each other every year.
Eltham SCM will also be in Mildura next weekend so there will be a mini tournement between them, Mildura and Central districts.

Melton played Ballarat SEABL with one import:

Bulleen SCM missing Scott Cuffe played Sunbury Jets D1 Men who also seemed to have a couple missing on Sunday and got up by 15-20 I think. Very positive signs from Bulleen with the import guard being very good and Jimmy Todd playing very well too.
I was actually impressed with the Sunbury team who won 2 qtrs but struggled to contain Lester in the half court. Might be a contender in Div 1 this season.

McKinnon retain the Cougar Cup. Got both mens games very easily but lost the womens.
What was the result of the friendship games down @ the Bool?
Mckinnon women lost by 25, Youth men won by 39 and the men won by 10. Games went according to ranking you would say.
Seahawks won by 5 points Saturday and again by 5 points on Sunday.
Both games down to the wire and could of gone either way.

That is great for Pakenham to drop by only 5 points against a top D1 side. Going to be a year to remember for Ryan Rodger's crew

Warnambools new import:

Did Warnambool make finals last year or where they down the bottom?

So will they have Gainey, Cunningham, this import Stone and another?
Cunningham is the coach. Gainey dropped 35 apparently in one game . Beating packenham by 5 isn't that impressive though and I expect the Seahawks to be down the bottom of the conference. Doubt warrnambool could afford 2 imports unless they have a massive outsider putting in cash.

What do you mean not that impressive? Pakenham will win D2 and in reality should be playing D1

Shepparton will give them a run in D2 I think? They appear solid again and last year they were very good...
if packenham played div 1 they would get beaten by 30 every week. Craigeburn and Warrnambool both should be in div 2. These two sides will be walkovers to the stronger teams this year.
Div 2 is at its weakest in terms of talent running around on the court at the moment than its ever been. Shepp with Bartlett and Wright from bendigo seabl side will carry them to the title.
Packy in Div1 you`re kidding right? win a few practice matches and think they should be up there. Win the title and then you can go up.
They don`t have the bodies or the stregth to compete at that level period.
Practice match results are just that, practice. Get over the results and stop pumping up sides from lower division who treat it like a GF vs a higher ranked side using it to put time into the lesseer like players.

I think people overestimate the difference between leagues. There is pretty much always crossover between leagues ranked above/below each other.

Look how much Pakenham improved last season under Coach Rodgers. LMAO at the peeps who put posts like the previous ones up ther. If they improve half of that this year they will smash D2 out of this universe. Agree that Shep will be good and Casey to but outside those 3 there is nobody has the team to compete with Pakenham.
People just keep bagging it will motivate the warriors to prove they should be in D1 next year.

Why is everyone thinking sunbury are contenders? Lost to bulleen by 20? Melb Uni lost to Bulleen by 5 and most people are saying they wont make the finals....
Sunbury overrated. I would like to hear peoples cases for Altona and Blackburn too(who have also been mentioned as contenders).

haha 3 championships is a bit over the top... let the youth boys get a win over keysie & warrandyte first.
also the women nor men have faced all teams... give it time and we'll see what happens
Three championships ha ha, There women I will give you that as they are legit and I am suprised they have not sent them up to D1
The men continue to play on pure emotion as per other years and will fall in a heap as soon as they get a few losses.
The youth were handed the butts on a plate by Keysborough on the weekend from what I saw with the Keysy coach sitting his starters for the final 3 quarters. There was a lot of chest beating early in the game by Casey and nothing but crickets from the bench after quarter time.

Their men have always been young, i think last year the whole team could have played youth! Saw them at Frankston and look to have some older bodies, maybe this experience could help them mentally? who knows
the youth looked like they were just trying to compete with the noise from keysies bench but when the game got away from them they just stopped and heads dropped as keysie continued to get louder and louder, kudos to keysie, they will be tough to beat this year!
@ cavsnation. How many championships did you win this year?
