Brisbane v Melbourne May 24

You would expect that a Brisbane loss might be it and Melbourne know that SEM got the job done the other night. The problem with having a cross town rival is that when one does something, the other is under the pump to do the same.

SEM mopped the floor with Brisbane resulting in a 29 point win to them. Are United good enough to match that, or will they let the Creeksters rule the roost? They've had the break and rest so there's no excuses. Leave the excuses to Collingwood.

It's hard to see Brissy get this one. United should do just enough to get a good lead and then slip it down a gear.

Well this game has taken the imagination of the spectators, lol.

Melbourne in a cantor. Some of the Australian players in Brisbane have played at a few clubs and never played in finals or at the most once. I think that tells you something.

United by 12.

For someone going for the Bullets please don't play Harry Froling. He is simply unplayable & a net negative on both ends of the floor.

What did Harry Froling have the other day 4 turnovers in 10 minutes of court time? As soon as he stepped on the court he started turning it over.

I'm not a fan and wasn't at all concerned that the Sixers didn't bring him back this season but I genuinely felt for the guy watching that last game.

Fingers crossed for a lights out shooting explosion by the Bullets.

Andrej to give another rousing halftime pep talk.

United to go on and win by 30.

This refereeing is laughable

Apparently FIBA are in the building because they are impressed with the NBL review system and the speed in which it is utilised.

F'ing LOL.

As a neutral, can't say noticed a lot wrong with refs. Gaze saying fiba looking to follow Australia’s video review system. BJ is poor import.

Drimic defence has been woeful.

QLD Firebirds netball coach, Megan Anderson, listening to Andrej during the timeouts, she might start dropping the F bomb on the Firebirds during her time outs after this experience

United in second gear and gave their bench a good run in the second half and still beat them easily. Landale only played 18 minutes. Brisbane gone, would need to win all five games left as their percentage is crap.
They have some very average players, even if they are commentary favourites. Cadee, Froling, Drimic, import BJ just for starters.

Froling is just plain fat. His dad is in better shape

Brisbane are as soft as butter that's been sitting next to the BBQ on a 40 degree Queensland day

They have some talent but they really dropped their heads when United was on a roll

Yes, I'm sure as a 'lady coach’ she’s never uttered a swear word in her life. smh

Would've said the same thing if it was a male coach listening. Just highlighting the fact that some NBL coaches swear excessively knowing they are broadcasted live. Can forgive the odd F bomb to make a point, but some use it like 'if and or but’

I agree, coaches should refrain from swearing in time outs, it's annoying and not required. Gleeson pleads at times but he doesn’t swear.
