Ballinger back injury, unlikely to play vs NZ
Too much at stake. Breakers will not let this one slip. Lemanis has been copping plenty in press of late. Keep believing and keep being aggressive is his solution to Breakers woes. He should have added "try being smarter"
Huge hole for Sixers to fill without Ballinger.

Could be an interesting finish - since we've both gifted opposition teams the win and lack clutch confidence.


How frustrating would it be, if the Sixers were your favorite team and you had a relative playing for the Breakers - Boti writes today. Let me know if you are out there and we'll arrange for a UN parcel to be dropped over - he says.

the Sixers will still prob win, Breakers will build a decent lead and then choke at the end

That was Ballinger and Ninnis on TV news, just then.
The team flies out tomorrow, but if he's any chance to play at all, he will fly out on Wednesday.
Something he's played with for 7 or 8 years so he might be alright - he mentioned.
Ninnis said he hoped that playing him thru it against Melbourne doesn't cause them more troubles, but if there's the slightest chance that he could play, they will do whatever it takes.
Whilst yes I would've thought that the flight is not gonna do him much good and he'd be better stayibg here and doing physio, THEY are desperate for him to play.

Hope he recovers - not for the NZ game but just in general.
Looked pretty damn sore when he came off early against the Tigers, great to see him battle through it though and continue to play, how many times can he do this though?!

"Felt something before the Tigers game and in the 2nd qtr, it was gone. The flights don't do it any good.
Get some physio and it should settle down." - He mentioned, as it was first thought it was gonna be season ending.
