U19 FIBA Oceania qualifers

I think the quote from the Link which bluey gave us sums up exactly how this game will go down:

"Australia have not lost a game in the U19 FIBA Oceania Qualifiers against New Zealand "

Anon, I cannot see how saying it will be a one-sided affair is 'spoiling it'. Everyone, including the players in the Aussie side know they are favourites to win. Here's an example.
The New Zealand Under 18 team is in Ballarat at the moment and they have lost all 3 games which they have played. They have lost to NSW,QLD,VIC etc.
If the NZ Under 18 team cannot beat state sides from here, how can they be expected to beat a full-strength aussie side.
The fact is that from the NZ U/19 squad, only 1 may play D1 College ball, whereas we will probably end up with 4/5 from our under 19 squad.

Mate, let me tell you something. I am actually in the Junior Tall Black Squad, trialing for a position in the NZ U/19 team. It happens every year, we get flogged.
Basically, im praising the Aussie's, they are true ballaz. Im showing some love and your hating on me. Why.?
Go if you want. When i meant not to go, it's because it's not going to be a very even contest. And i think im right to say, competetive and even contests are more exciting

Don't even bother going to see the match. It will be a one-sided, high turnover, mistake-filled match, in which Australia will win comfortably.

Who are they playing? NZ? haha.
Im from NZ and right now, the best team NZ could send to the qualifiers would be a bunch of amateur guys who have only ever been to the Australian Under 18 champs and lost EVERY game.
