Should be a more open season than in last couple, new imports may be a big deciding factor. Don't agree with woodville imports, wasn't hugely impressed in games in preseason, do woodville have enough size with Carlin gone and Stanbridge defecting for ridiculous amount of cash.
Can norwoods coach control his veterans and not sold on their imports either, big not really mobile looking at tape and other is another gunner. Were they too worried about bringing in a point to take minutes away from older Webber?
Forestville have gone out and brought in half the sixers squad, can Teys dominate at this level and when will DJ suit up. Last effort with sturt he seemed to go through motions. West will miss Oldham but new guard seems a great replacement and other big a huge upgrade on Ridgeway who was suspended anyway and really just a role player who got into foul trouble a lot and couldn't shoot outside key. West easily.
Sturt going young again but Rawson a big in, huge part of their GF side a couple of years ago, and their veterans are pretty handy. Southern haven't really opened the chequebook this year with a marquee signing but imports have been here a while and upgrade on last year, plus return of Johns who know the system a major in. Should romp home easily.
Centrals have very young team and trying to suit second import who just arrived, could be a surprise packet but may struggle with inexperience, not helped by previous regime which was laughable and resulted in another exodus, losing Humphries to injury a major bloe. Eastern can only go up and Rios a sound addition, is their other import mobile enough to go along with size. Mauling Southern gave at riverland raises huge question marks, 30 points in a game?
North seem to have good chemistry but how long will it take for cj to get fitness. Al will have panthers running and gunning, will locals step up to support Davis who apparently has come back better than last year.

Norwood appointed Rogers with zero experience to please the veterans only.

Anon 866, your analysis is troubling. Your understanding of inner team workings is what's laughable.

So 873, what makes your knowledge of inner team workings so superior. Mines from talking to most coaches about games vs opponents and game tape.

Who is everyones selection for Player of the week?

Which game should I go to if I want to see a good new import?

For Imports that have not been seen before and potential wow factor go to Sturt Vs Southern ar Pasadena. 8.15 Mens, 6.30 Womens.

I have heard Sturts import Nate Garth will easily be the best in the league. Good call. Get down to that game.

Southern v Sturt will be a ripper! Garth is like a young Ricky Grace.

Why didn't Garth play? Bit of a let down. Think Sturt would have beaten Southern with a full team. Great crowd though.

#873, seems like my review was pretty spot on, what you say now?

Sturt import missed the BSA registration cut off , so couldn't play

Too busy talking himself up!

Everett, the woodville import that was to tear it up and be in MVP talk had 2 points, 1-10, the only make was his first apparently. Woodville for wooden spoon.

I thought they must have had the Woodville imports backwards! The other guys numbers were solid.

Will Wise proving why he could be a Smokey for the league MVP

Wise was dominated by Martin. Got some cheapies in the end but shot low percentage and nearly half his teams shots. Ricardo nearly got triple double with 7 blocks on Wise. Mavs gonna be bottom by a long way, Wise only goes right, very easy to scout.

Has Martin improved from last year or maybe just improved because he has a guard to pass to him.

Tobias Dowdell is the most athletic import by a country mile.

Any footage or highlights of him?

Wise doesn't pass either! Extremely easy to scout as he has no left hand and will try and barge his way to the basket on any possession.

Dowdell nearly ended one of the Eagles players but unfortunately missed the dunk!

When was a spectator ejected at Wayville? Missed that.

Dowdell more athletic than Starling? I think Alex is the most athletic we have seen for the past few years.

Not now.....Dowdell has stupid hops and is very long.

What about Nwelue last year? He had more bounce than Starling.

I think you'll find Starling played a lot last year injured!
