Locked: U14 girls Nationals in Bris

Forestville just got off the court in Bris. They won 43-35 to Bulleen in a very hot stadium.

Well done girls. Go SA.

Top start. That was the bogey game , now hope Sturt can open the account with a win.

Interesting Gosford lost, that should help the Eagles.

Sturt should account for Nth Tassy fairly easily later today and that's their day done, Forestville need to play Eastern Suns in their second match today and that should be a great game with Eastern knocking off Gosford earlier.

The Sturt girls won their first match against North Tasmania 78-36.

They play Southern Districts tomorrow, and back up against Knox tomorrow evening, who they defeated in the Classics gold medal match.

Knox snuck home a 38-35 victory over Albury today as well, so expect the Sturt vs Albury game on Wednesday to be very tough as well, in what is a very tight group.

Looks like there are some quality sides.

Forestville doing extremely well in the pool of death.

Results also are showing Willeton after many quiet years are back after thumping Dandenong by 23 points. Townsville and Brisbane look good and Sturt yet to play any quality but will be around the mark. Also watch for Knox and Albury.

They will crossover in aa with Nunawading and Bendigo.
Probably take Eastern suns or Townsville with them , plus carry that win in.

Aware of that, but a lot of things have happened since then.
The eagles seemed pretty motivated to do well this week.

My read is that the will get over Bendigo.

Could be wrong as you say.

The concern is that playing in the pool of death, they will need to use up a lot of energy before they get into the second group.

They play Townsville in the morning after having a couple of tough days. Then they have to play the loser of the Bendigo and Nunawading game that afternoon. With Bendigo coming of a game against NT and Nunawading of a game against Canbe4rra who don't look too good.

We just have to hope that they have enough in the tank and that the coach has been able to rest players rather than trying to win by as much as possible.

So I still think that they have a tough battle.

True,

But, not too many have coached in a 20 team format. For many years it was a 16 teams format. And, this year is the first year that it has been run over 6 days. Previously it has been over 5.

So Dr Damage was actually correct in suggesting Nicole, Scoot and Jim are the one's too ask. As they are actually the only coaches in Adelaide who have played in a tournament with this structure.

I think it is actually tougher with 16 teams, as it is harder to get in and the competition is tougher because you didn't have the extra NT teams or host team in the weaker states. Also no offence to Jim, but it was his first 14 Nationals as a coach.

I feel it is actually a little harder becasue you carry a game into your second group. Therefore more games are important. If you lose a game in the first group, you pretty much need to win all the rest of your games (four in a row) to win the tournament. Whereas previously you didn't carry a game and went straight into Quarter Finals. Only 3 in a row even if you had lost in your first group. Plus you now play more games than previously and there has been an improvement in teams from NSW and Queensland.

I disagree.
The qualification for SA/Vic/Qld/ACT/Tas/WA has remained.

Same allocation from each state.
The extras ie.NT Nth/Sth and host association are at the weaker end of the comp. The extra NSW has made it stronger, hence the 'pool of death'

In some ways I find the Classic harder because there is a greater depth and no easy games at u/14 level.

Dr Damage,

That depends on where the tournament is played. If it is in ACT, NT or Victoria, the second placed State from the previous year, ie Vic, SA or NSW usually get an extra bid. In which case it becomes more difficult.

But in other years, it might be the opposite. And that adds an element of difficulty, as you can sometimes have a harder draw than other years. Making some pools more difficult, ala Forestville's pool of death.

If we must get into another slanging match between 2 strong SA clubs, so be it, but start another topic.

The original intention of this topic was to provide a means of putting up to date scores, within a few mins of matches finishing in Brisbane so family, freinds and well wishers could keep updated quickly.

Lets all remember these are U14 girls, not the Opals or Lightning.

All take a "time out", calm down & start another topic if you really feel the need to bag these 2 clubs.

6 country girls from Sturt, 2 from Forestville. A little early to be predicting their future let alone starting a Metro - Country debate.
Forestville seem to be trying to copy the Sturt system by a cheaper, economy method. They have appointed state country coaches to 14 and 16 girls in order to attract country players.
Will it work?

Thought these comments interesting considering the comments re coaching in other threads.

WILLETTON v STURT (53-60)

Sturt started brilliantly and easily controlled the first half up by 18 at halftime. Sturt appeared to have all the answers until late in the third quarter as Willetton charged back. The longer the game went on, the stronger Willetton looked. However in the end, the margin was too great and Sturt held on to a 7 point victory. Top Scorers  Willetton: A Jones 22, E Angel 11. Sturt: A Wilson 13, H Hull, 13.

FORESTVILLE v BENDIGO (69-55)

Forestville play with plenty of height and are coached well. They struck a 15 point lead on the back of too many Bendigo errors and unnecessary turnovers. Forestville are playing sensibly and are looking like a red hot team. Top Scorers  Forestville: I Richards 21, O Thompson 18. Bendigo: A Rutland 14, Y Dellavedova 12.


I think we have a lot to be proud of.

Taking the best player with him... thats whose opinion in which game? Finals?? Which player would be best as they play as a team and often best player has more assists less points. Highest scorer is not always indicative of best player, unless you are a parent! Are any of these girls eligible for u18s? Tigers u16 girls are already strong in 07.

(#98750) Who the hell are you ? And what the hell are you on about?????

The whole F/ville team, parents and players are VERY proud of what the F/ville girls have achived this weekend.

Your comments are disgracefull!
There are 2 different sets of parents from the country in the
F/ville team & both sets of parents IMO are the most encouraging parents in the whole team. I would gladly have both sets of parents barrik for or against my daughter any day of the week. To imply that they were doing anything else than encourging their team is beyond comprehension.

I would like to congradulate ALL the teams that lined up and clapped F/ville out of the stadium last nite (29/9/06). This was a spontanious show of class from the teams involved and goes to show that petty state rivalries mean nothing in this current U14 girls group.

The outlook for Womens Australian B/ball looks very healthy for the future if this championship is anything to go by.

Can I say a BIG thankyou to most of the posters on this thread. The information exchange has been awsoume, keeping everyone who is interested, well & truley up to date.

I believe Nunawading & F/ville players are planning a pizza party in the next few hours.

You blew it and no I dont think you deservered a Grand Final berth especially as you all were baracking for Nuna then as they looked like losing transfered your cheering to Willetton. Like everything sturt, cheap, classless ans pretentious.

The present outstanding 14's rolling into 16's will need to continue to develop in all areas to stay competitive whilst many of the girls from the other( not so successful 2006 teams) clubs will have the chance of developing both in body and sills, so predicting the future of sturt or any other club's players is crystal ball territory( We call it SASI).
U16's plus girls age groups face a wider range of obstacles than just being good ball players and only the dedicated and talented prosper as talent and potential are not enough.
Here's hoping SA turn out more success stories than ever.

Lets hope they all grow up a bit more by the time they get to Under 16s as well! This bickering and immature behaviour is pathetic!

hey on behalf of all the vic people we would like to say how pleasent all the Forestville girls and parents were. we had the pleasure of staying in the same hotel and we got along great with all of the girls. we even had a party together on the last night.
to all the sturt parents i know that there aer individuals on your team that are lovely but the fact they started supportin nuna in the final and then changed halfway just shows that they have no heart. the nuna girls had even made an effort to be friendly and luckily the forestville girls had seen that, unlike sturt who obviosly wernt smart enough to c that.
thanks for the support forestville life long friends you girls are as for sturt i dont think any of Victoria could care less.
Well Done FORESTVILLE! we vicslove you!

The Sturt girls were nice to nuna in the first place but they changed quick after that. we had total respect until they changed to willos cheer squad. we would of been cheerin for the SA team if it was them and not us in the granny but it wasnt. we wernt able to watch the semi b4 our own game and no other games we were present to watch. therefore u have no evidence we wouldnt of cheered for you!

Smart enought to recognise friendship? What a joke,they supported both teams,they made friends on both teams,they will still be friends long after the dust has settled.Victoria,who cares about you? Beaten again in a meaningful, even competition.

do u honestly think that it was all about the win.. well tust me you have no judge of character. Nuna are so proud that they took back senend place to a team that beat us on the day. we have full respet for willo. This whole Sturt war is just a load of rubbish and im over it. the girls dont want it so why are we still continuing it. i am saying it is over move on nationals are a thing of the past no-one will be back there again with same teams. Lets keep all the feistyness until 16 state team.
