R14 ABA Action (Sunda)
1) If all the refs quit we wouldnt have any games at all. Umpiring is a hard job and not as easy as it looks from the sidelines. I admit i miss a lot of things in games but i am human and cant be everywhere and i will make mistakes, it does not mean the tunnel vision spectators can have a go. If you can do better be all means be my guest and give it a go, we always need more refs.
2) Who cares who was away. West had 7 PEOPLE for the Lions game and still won by 6. Missing two players should not make such a big difference in a game (specially a 25 point difference[talking about the West-Norwood game]).

Why cant woodville be a growing side, they have beaten North and South granted these teams are not top 4 sides but still able to get some good results.
Woodville has the likes of Christie, Perkas, Richards all of whom are upcoming quality players, losing to woodville isnt the massive upset this year that it has been in recent times.
Woodville on a good night can run with almost any team in this league and dont deserve to be a wooden spoon benchmark anymore!

Anon 753... do you really believe refs dont post on this site?
Another round for my friend at table 753 please!

Whos complaining about the refs in the south vs North game?Some of the sharpest elbows playing in both those teams.They could do a Ninja Elbow Movie with Quentin Tarantino.
Anyway back on track apart from Bearcats Men def Flames by 21 points and Tigers v Lions what are some of the news from the other mens matches?Just to rub it in(no humility after losing to south last'brrr'nite)the Women slashed Flames 25 points missing Foley,Duke etal


How disgraceful to turn this into a ref bash. I don't believe the refereeing was good at the game but didn't cost the panthers. Norths shooting did. Had south adjusted to the shooters better they could have got the win.
At least with 2 young officials they had an evaluator like beams there to help their development rather than tell them how great a job they did. It also isn't the referees fault that there were the matchups there were I would love to know the reason those 2 officials were paired together. Lay off the refs they are victims of a situation and need a little Lea-way

No real surprises in the womens results:
Southern def. Centrals
North def. South
West def. Norwood (No Foley or Duke)
Sturt def. Woodville
Forestville def. Eastern

We need 1 umpire for a scrimmage tonigh between 7.30-9.00pm (location is school just out of city - 1km) between an ABA team and junior Div 1 side.
Will pay going rate.
