It's taking the imagination of the punters this game. ::)

Jack is right, Sydney had so much potential and still got a few good players but not enough. Melbourne by hopefully not to many so at least it’s a contest. I never thought the loss of Weaver would be off such magnitude, injuries as well but all sides have had them.

This is the Kings last roll of the dice now 2 games behind the Hawks they have to win all of their remaining games to make it to the playoffs but losing to a Cotton-less Wildcats with Casper Ware going 0-11 on the night was really the end.

United by 9

That Jarell charge was the worst call of the season. Killed the Kings playoff chances and guaranteed united top spot. No doubt LV will let that go through to the keeper.

Yes. If Perth win out from here they'll finish 1st due to percentage.
(Feels like a very big IF, though)

WTF is with Brad Newlwy's chin?

Every game he has multiple bandages on it.

Has he got a piercing there or something?

Cracking game, good crowd and atmosphere for indigenous round, very good games from Vadonovic and Bruce, Moller rightly so declared the mvp, his ability to play team and defend all positions is valuable. Ware and Newley much better, not certain cooks was re injured, limped off and didn't return. Martin was good and his last foul was dubious at best.

United believe it’s their time, has a look of arrogance starting with Landale, and probably deservedly so. Sydney were just good today, Moller and Vadonovic were excellent defensively, McCarron just a little down hurt as them well, they have been away from there beds for a week. ::). Landale played well as did Hopson, baba would have been handy as well. Peatling I don’t think should start ahead of JLA, Goulding slightly down as well. They will still be hard to beat but they are not unbeatable.

That was an unexpectedly wild and bizarre game, even before the end of regulation

Ultimately United not clutch enough, with Ili missing the wide open layup, then Landale 1 from 3 from the line

Kings need some results going their way but they're still alive for now

Cooks showed in that 1st half what Kings have been missing all year, I'm kind of hoping they get 4th as United vs Kings could be worth watching based on tonight and the whole season series

Bruce the star and Vodanovich the niiice cameo, who would've thought

LV did you watch the game, Cook was -15 yes good to have him playing. Moller got the mvp award, his defence was outstanding, rebounding as well, the little things.

Well things just got interesting again...

Can somebody please explain to me what happened??

The King's that just lost to the Cats, were beyond woeful. Lazy, disinterested, and insipid.
So who the f*** turned up to this game?

Did mu just get caught napping?

The kings were not so much hero ball, still to much by one or two but they actually played a lot more team.

The +/- are an interesting mix, reflective of the wild momentum changes in this game

Sydney's 16-0 run was with CG43 and Mccarron off with foul trouble and Hopsom and Ili on court.

I was at the game with all my boys. Casper is just a chicken offensively as good as he is on the defensive end we need a Machado type running the offence next year. I'd even take a Will McDowell and look to fill our import spots at the wings.

United 20 turnovers, JLA 7 of those. I mean it's not hard to see where the game was won. It still took double OT!!!

Vadonovic, Newley got in the trenches with Moller, nothing flash just good hard defence and team play. Kings been to much one out stuff this season.

Moller 8p, 11r (7 offensive), 5a , 3 steels and 1 block. Very handy stats line.
Newley 8p, 8r, 3a, 1 steel
Vadonovic 13p 2r, 1 steel.

To many supporters and commentators only see points and flashy stuff, you can understand supporters not being that knowledgeable but the commentary really should no better. It takes a squad of different talents to make a winning team, Gleeson and Goorjian understand it.

"Good to see Moller being more appreciated." Moller should always be appreciated for what he does. Those that can't see how good a player he is are fools.

Moller and Vadonovic box outs last night were excellent, you don't get stats for those type plays.
