Still the best Todd Gower quote ever, from Nino during a Halo session. "Todd is such an animal. He just doesn't know what type yet."

And there he is in the sports section of The Advertiser, hiding behind a tree with a cheap-looking rubber ball, ready to pounce.

Here's hoping that he's been practising his free throws with Dusty!

If you want someone to miss free throws and dribble directly into double teams, Gower's your man. I joke, he is effective in giving someone 5 minutes rest without any one noticing too much.

Couldn't believe it when I saw that article this morning. I actually laughed out loud. I'll take a bet from anyone who thinks he will actually get on the court during the finals series... while the game is still up in the air.
Smyth: 'We wouldn't be where we are now if he hadn't backed himself and just achieved through sheer hard work.'
What the hell is he talking about?

The gower secret was previously revealed on this site Boti you need to dig deeper. This is an excerpt from a previous post- "the Gower Conspiracy...fantastic goes like this gower suffers a rare form of amnesia..a little different to Jason Bourne. It seems just when everyone could no longer remember who he was 2 schemers remembered a key ingredient that was fogotten so released Gower into the team and even his team are not sure whose side he is on but as he wears their uniform they pass to him occasionally and the rest of the time he is so hungry that he is out looking to steal the ball to become part of the team. Not only that but oposition teams haven't factored him in because there is nothing out there to scout. Who Is he? Has he changed his name by deed poll? where did he come from? There are reports that on the perth road trip he offered a choice of passports as ID. An illegal import with a rubber Todd Gower mask?? The mystery deepens. It certainly opened old wounds for Mike Helms a CIA operative masquerading as a basketball player. Gower ripped past him just leaving Helms with a head and relieving helms of the ball. Slow motion exam of the tape shows agent Gower also checked Helms for a CIA tattoo behind the ear. Is this a case of establishing the Gower Identity or are we looking at the Gower Supremacy?? Go Todd ...whoever you are."

Lets give him a bit of credit, he was never the most natural basketballer and has now a few years of NBL behind him. Go Toddler.
