It wouldn't be a week of Basketball without a Southern thread! Should be a beauty of a game in both Mens and Womans.

TIGERS WILL BE TOO SLOW .FLAMES WILL BE UP THE FLOOR BEFORE BEATTY HITS THE HALF.

Men only shot 36% vs centrals...pitiful.

Coach Hopkins spending too much time at Bunnings playing houses and not doing the hard yards!!

I thought it was common knowledge that both men and women coaches will not be coaching next year. So I guess Hopkins is entitled to be playing houses if he wants to. The men are 2-2. The women are 3-1. The job is getting done. Both games this weekend will be worth the money to watch thats for sure.

Hopkins wouldn't be there this year if anyone had applied when it was advertised last year.

Is Ben Beatty that ex-North Adelaide player? Born about 1979?

I think he went off the rails a few years back, went to Norwood Morialta?

Good to have you back in SA (I assume #75654 is Ben).

I should have said "off the rails", didn't mean any offence.

I thought the current boys coaching director applied for the position?

Yeah Eley has certainly done alot to hurt the Tigers in recent outings. Not. He won't get double digits.

Lay off Billy, he had no intention of coaching this year but is doing the right thing by the club.
Good on him,.

Hows about we get back on topic people..?

What players are going to hurt Southern...? Cooper.? Shooting 3/11 aint gonna hurt.. oh wait i can hear someone say "but he blocks shots!"

Has anyone seen Southern play? The ball tends to fly from the outside a fair bit... is he going to guard Snake?

Match up of the round, no doubt -

Look-a-like Award -
Bowley v Krause... who will shoot the most shots outside the paint?

Meat Truck Award -
Matt Alexander v Matt Jones

Too many To's - Webber

MVP - Snake Gerlach

My pick... Southern by 6.

personaly I would not want to play for a coach who did not want to be there, having said that I think they have surprised this year so far.

why does leaver not coach them? or maybe Paul Meske???

Well said Fresh until you mentioned Meseche. Leaver has enough to do to try and hold together the junior program.

Indiana, I was just making a sugestion re Mescke because they are both have good experience and if Billy does not want to coach then??
and Anon it's a forum and I am entitled to make this comment so I have two words for you!!

ok anon 75749, I dont know much about him lately so maybe I am off the mark on that one.

My main point was that they would be better off having someone who was fully committed.

No offence to Billy, he is a top bloke from what I know.

I dont know if any of you guys have been to a game this year, but i suggest you head along this Saturday and then post on this forum whether you think Billy is 100% committed....i think you might find that he has an extra bounce in his step this year, and the players appear to be feeding off it after a slow start.

For you stinkers.

I'm on the tigers this week, Confidence is high at tigerland and coach is 100% committed.

Southern by 11 in a shootout.

What a bunch of absolute dribble I see being bounced around on this forum.

Billy-Ho has been bleeding black and gold since Naismith invented the 'real' beautiful game. To question his commitment is laughable

I would suggest everyone get onboard the Tiger Express as it makes it's stops around the ABL on the Billy farewell tour. The boys will doing their utmost to have a huge season in 06 for their coach im sure.

Just wish I was there to see it.

Look for the squad to bolster it's already deep guard rotation with the addition of new recruit M.Clarke.

Next I spose someone will be questioning his commitment. LOL

Damn there are some serious downies on this forum!!
What ever coads think that billy isn't in it for the team can get stuffed. I have not seen Billy as excited to be coaching as I have leading into this season. Although it took afew games to get things moving I see the tigers are now clicking. Steam rolling are words that comes to mind.
Watch out norwood there is a mauling coming up this weekend.
Not to mention that with Double Blacks in hand J bags and the Gringo prepare to make there long awaited return to the bench for the Tigers.
