BJ back coaching North women.

Haven't heard anything about Woodville women.

Let the guy ask the question, that thread was ages ago so probably didn't see it.
Norwood still to announce as well I believe but that deal was a foregone conclusion.
And true about West, where's the big name of Woosnam?

From memory the questions regarding Woosnam weren't answered on the previous thread anyway.

Are Norwood retaining both coaches?

Devon McGee to Woodville. Won't really move the needle for them but he’s big.

Seb Vozzo to the nba

south keeping the same coaches

so the club will tread water again for another 12 months before they can get rid of them both

Cant see Mavs or Warhurst keen on keeping Vozzo after the yelling match and name calling at Marion in the last game of the season!

Wouldn't worry about West women's program. Boti is capable. Worry about the mens program.

What garbage. Putting that team together and making finals is hardly disappointing. And the talent put on the floor was through his contacts!

"And the talent put on the floor was through his contacts!"

It's great that Boti has contacts to put together a formidable team... so where were the results?

West the most talented women is a troll right?

Forestville disrespectfully disagrees about West being the most talented.

McGee to Woodville is a strange move. Already have solid bigs there, been terrible for last few years and no real development. Throw in bizarre choice of imports and where does he sit? All sorts of rumours about discontent a west, but they would have been better location, central's as well. All I can see him doing at Woodville is standing in the middle of their zone and Scotty yelling out put up your arms.
And there's been eastern bashing ad nauseum, but what will they have for coming season? Morris was lone standout, but McGee was at least a contributor. Cherry was obviously a budget import, nothing truly outstanding in any area. Might come down to who gets the best import in the south matchup. And God knows what Southern will serve up with no money.
If Dean wanted to show he's not just a chequebook coach, he should put his hand up to go somewhere like eastern. But he'll fade into background and groupies will say tigers demise was because he isn't coaching.

Morris is heading to south adelaide

Any other confirmed moves?

Nothing left at Mavs juniors or seniors
Do you have to have competitive junior div 1 teams in order to have premier league teams?
Or is it a BSA only decision to grant pl licenses?

McGee to Woodville is especially strange since their best two players are stanbridge and marioana who play a similar style of game.

No harm in gathering as much talent as you can. Especially when you're a team like Woodville who needs more depth. They’ll be hurt when Riley Meldrum leaves for college.

What college has Riley committed too and when does he leave ?

If true I cant believe Warhurst has still got a gig at Mavs. 4/4 wooden spoons isn't exactly a great record.

It's him or the team coach themselves. Which probably would work better, but wouldn’t be a good look.

Mavs non negotiables recruiting policy for Mens PL:
1. Not a club junior
2. Must have been at multiple clubs (the more the better)
3. Cant get a game anywhere even at reserves level
4. Bad attitude or the ability to develop a bad attitude
5. Be more interested in yourself than the team, coach or club
6. Will be made captain if you can have a "toe to toe" argument during a game with your coach

Brunson how about developing the juniors like every other club does! The current coach has had 4 years to put a strategic plan together. The first couple of years OK but beyond that and you don't move off the bottom then there is something wrong.
His role if I am correct prior to this was junior DO so he probably had beyond the 4 years prior to accepting the role to put things in order and have a clear vision of where the club-team will be.

You are in dream land if you think this is acceptable but in reality NOBODY wants to coach at Mavericks so the club has no alternative.

If there's no one of PL caliber coming through juniors, then he doesn’t have much to serve up on the court. Can’t blame the coach for not having a few talented juniors coming though each year to help bolster the team.

End of the day it's about the cattle you coach. Best coaches in the world can't do much with cow dung.

Eastern have had 3 boys in underage Aus squads in just about successive years.

Ate they still playing here or moving interstate? That's a better question.

Yep they did and jw had little or nothing to do with their development

I think the question on everyone's lips is, where does Vozzo try and go? He shopped himself around to everyone last year and found no takers, is even more damaged goods after breakdown at Marion. Do Western Magic still have a senior team?

Vozzo is going nowhere JW will reward him for bad attitude and all about me persona. This just another example of why Mavs culture is in the toilet.

McGee to Woodville was a smart move by Warriors - a big that's dominate on the boards/blocks and still young and willing to learn. He'll work well with
Stanbridge and Marioana and he doesn't take an import spot either. At least he has a good attitude. He probably should have moved a season or 2 earlier.

Southern men and women are going to be scrambling big time for a decent team next year.

South is just South.

There are a lot of unhappy players out there making their moves - so it will be interesting to see what comes out as teams are solidifying their players early.

Southern Women should be fine.

Men will be another story unless something has changed with their finances.

Where are pioneers playing next season?

Hopefully not in the SA PL league. To venture down there and pay the ridiculous entry fees for a game and show - which isn't even a show should be put down in the books as the worse trip in SA.

Dominant? Let's not get ahead of ourselves here....

Have heard through the grapevine that Sturt are going to be very legitimate next year.

Blocks aren't everything. Can he defend a pick and roll, does he talk, does he box out? These are all things that have held him back from getting an NBL DP spot.

'There are a lot of unhappy players out there making their moves'

are we going to see the rise of a super team ;-))

There's potential that an already talent stacked team adds more talent. Yes.

So given there are only 4 teams currently you could consider stacked it doesn't make it very difficult to work out it is Forestville!

Norwood - Players after experiencing playing there once move on due to environment

Southern - No money and people moving on

North - Not stacked anymore

So that leaves Forestville

Yep, superteam of Vozzo, Rigby Alphabet, Jordy Wilson, Calligeros and Jonnek. Up there with the Warriors.

McGee has improved over the years and his stats show that - averaging 15 points per game as well. He's young and the reason why he isn't on the NBL DP list seems like he might have been held back and needed some different coaching style to advance him - maybe his size is an issue too - 6'9" and pretty lean but his flow on the court is pretty good. Playing overseas doesn't mean shit - if you played shit over there. The question is if you were playing overseas - why the hell are you in Adelaide playing Premier League - clear indication that something stinks.

So who are these unhappy players that we've deduced are going to Forestville?

Averaged 15? Try 13. Devon stop posting.

Woodville Warriors?

is maclean coaching west Adelaide again

Petty loading up big time at South. Must be plenty of $$ to go around, albeit they mustn't much this past season.

Devon will be a big loss at Mavs as it looks like they have lost their entire starting unit bar Stock? Forum users bag the club or their Mens team but if you look at the results they were in about 80% of their games but couldn't get over the line.

Who's Petty got? Learning from his mentor into how to send a club broke within 5 years.
And McGee whilst athletic has the basketball IQ of a snail. Jumps at everything so no wonder gets some blocks, but gives up offensive rebounds and fouls as a result. And shooting range is about 30cms from basket. But no wonder he left, all his feedback from coach was screaming at him when he did something wrong.
Heard Central women will be lucky to field a team this year. KB took the money and ran, never did recruit anyone.

#524 your a tool. Wished you could play premier league but only capable of inbounding a ball in social C grade comp. Troll some where else

Plays basketball better than you spell, big fella.

Forestville looking at Brine?

Why would Brine go to Eagles if they stack their team with 36ers - he wouldn't get much court time - maybe to sub them off now and then.

West and Norwood going through strikingly similar scenarios.

Brandon wouldn't get any court time, he’s terrible..can’t defend.

Not get any court time??? Are you really stupid or what?

yeah he is terrible, doesnt defend, rebound, score or block shots..

Hanging round, the highly touted by several users "young cores" of West and Norwood are done for. I have heard first hand from people in the know that there's a current player void.

Who at mavs are confirmed walks outside of McGee?

Strong rumours of Southern splashing half their budget to bring Rigby Alphabet across

If confirmed their budget won't even cover the after game dim Sims!

Forestville announced Simon Pritchard as their new womens coach.

Even a Norwood stalwart doesn't want to return there

Dean Nyberg looks to be moving to a new stacked location with the adelaide uni boys coach. According to instagram stories he is in gold coast and surely trying to recruit a few familiar faces to play D1.

$$$

Centrals just announced Matt Atkins as mens coach. Interesting to see what he brings from Whitmores playbook.

Corey doing the West Mens again and Joe Noone doing the women

Why?

Because they have the best roster of course

So is this rumoured rift at West going to result in exodus of players?

What rumoured rift?

In previous posts there's many threats about players walking out with some aimed at the coach.

Like who? What threats. Interesting. Please elaborate!

Thomas to Woodville, heard it was really close to happening this year LOL

Valk flirting with Norwood and Kubank to Sturt.

That's a lie.

Thomas to Woodville looks likely this year. Valk to Norwood would be interesting, could be a nice back up to King Webber. Kubank to study improves study a touch.
West really losing their young core if true

I think Thomas signed with woodville last night

Heard Andrew and Daniel Webber had an argument and Chris Webber took Daniels side so Andrew is looking at leaving as he doesn't want to play with his brother anymore. Aparently Woodville are keen but centrals are a strong chance too what are your thoughts?

704 my thoughts are that your post is the worst troll attempt ever.

Jordy "Towel Waving" Wilson to save Norwood

Still no announcement of Norwood's coaches

And Centrals women.

Let me preface this by saying that I have no idea who Sean Richards is, so this is not a jab at him.

Now let's be honest: things are not looking up with Centrals' womens program.

Did not even realize they still had a team

Can't see how they will field both a premier league team and reserves. Plus expect some 18s players to leave in winter because of coach from what I've heard. KB left it in worse shape than he started with and only getting worse.

Sean Richards?
Oh dear. So Centrals have officially given up on their Premier League women?

"Sean Richards?
Oh dear. So Centrals have officially given up on their Premier League women?"

That happened a long time ago.

"I think we are going to surprise some people"

If you are talking about actually fielding a team then yes we will be surpised!

And to think 5 years ago their U14 girls were playing u14 nationals, 16 girls making classics and Premier League was making finals.

The current people and ones just before current people complained that unprecedented success was not based on a "sustainable model" so those that built it said "go for it do it yourselves". Not sure much is being sustained right now out there. Don't get me started re: the boy's program.

Basketball people that get involved with clubs are generally nutcases and apt at creating failure.

Problem there isn't basketball people, it's non basketball people making decisions. Current president doesn't even know rules of game and previous was a puppet getting told by clueless parents what to do. Haven't seen any return of hiring Willie, can't poach players to bottom based teams and he's just brought in a couple of really bad coaches. At least they didn't scrap div3 and under like previous president and committee wanted, let kids play at least.

So the word is around the traps that Centrals womens new coach is bringing several players along from other clubs so they can field a team. Good on him I say.

Confirmed today by Norwood, their premier league coaching lineup.

Women's Head Coach: Derrick Washington
Men's Head Coach: Mike Malat

Both residing from Texas...The American Flames!

Wow, have to recruit coaches out of the country to come to Norwood!!!

394, I'm not sure if you were trying to be funny, but you certainly made me laugh.

Wonder who these players that are coming out of nowhere to play at Starplex? I suppose a body is a body no matter how bad they are

394, we're giving props to a coach for being able to field a team?

Hope they're on the way soon, women gave up 125 and lost by 75.

Last 2 weeks in fact.

Centrals 56 - West 123

Centrals 51 - Southern 125
