Top End: Cats vs 36ers, Tue Sep 28

DJ won't be a bad signing. Give it time peeps.

Still want a big to replace Herbie though.

the Sixers players are selected by the lady who makes the hot chips at the Dome, please take up any signing issues with her

kthanxbye

if the sixers are posting the videos as mentioned above im surprised as all 3 videos show the sixers getting skooled.

Realistically, what are the % chances of replacing Herbie with a big like Harris or someone?

If we go that road, what are our best free agent prospects to pick up given the 8 remaining roster points / salary cap restrictions?

Based on dream team points, DJ was the 4th best centre in the League last season. I think he is going to be fantastic for us.

FFS give him a few games first bloody hell!

I still don't see the problem with the DJ signing...At the end of the day he was signed as our U/23 player and if i remember correctly he will still fit under that rule next season. I don't know that there are too many other U/23 guys that are ready to come in and contribute like DJ can.(although, i agree he hasn't shown much just yet)

If you compare him to Molitor who was our U/23 player last year he doesn't look quite so bad.

DJ needs to start at 5.

Ballinger needs to stay away from the 5 spot.

I get the feeling I'll be shaking my head at that one all season.

Big Marty, in saying the 4th quarter syndrome last season it was alot worse, generally the other team would make the comeback and with 3 minutes left go on a massive run and we would lose by 10 or 12, so far all preseason games have come down to a knifes edge, and atleast not all of them have gone to the opposition either. i think Clarke would have taken a few things from this game and should make us better for it. i do agree it seems we will have a team that can deal with the best of them.

hate to do the 'bashing on brad hill' thing but does it not surprise anyone else that he again was responsible for the turnover that lost the game, it rings bells of last season. however it is good to see him with 19 points, i thought whoever was updating the live stats got winder confused with hill.

Can take alot from that game. Bad passing was all that caused the loss. No lack of talent there.

Great game between the two sides as expected. Sixers still seem to have that classic "4th Quarter" syndrome at hand; however there was a much better Sixers side playing tonight.

Good chance that they can hang with the best this season.

Stephen weigh and Matty knight are going to have huge years this year!
Redhage didnt play and still great signs for the cats.
But the 6ers do like a reasonable team this year - saying that i hope winder isnt injured.
Im glad HILL had a big game
alot of people been hating on him.
Looking at that brief bit of footage - KEVIN LISCH LOOKS MASSIVE as well.
big year/back to back for the cats hell yeah son !

You guys are telling me - I just drafted Winder with my first pick in the Hoops FNBL! Hope he just tweaked something and that Clarke limited his minutes to be cautious.

Based on the boxscore it looks like it was a good game up in the Alice. Both teams shot well and racked up the assists. In the end it looks like the difference was turnovers. Sixers gave up 19 TOs and as a result gave Perth 13 more shots!

Nice to see Hill put up 19 points and that over two thirds of his shots were taken in the paint. Might be a good sign that Marty is pointing him in the right direction.

hoops, if you go on the NBL website they have links to the live FIBA stats that will be up.

Sorry my bad thought it was last night

google Top End Challenge, it looks like there might be live stats.

I reckon the show "Seal'd" is brilliant, well done Navy Seals! Keep up the good work. What do other people think about it?

^so your point being?

Hope the Sixers win.

Either way though, Perth v Adelaide has always been a great rivalry and usually results in a great game. Here's wishing for a close one no matter the result.

its tonight at 7pm from what i heard. my prediction sixers by 1
