Top End: Tigers vs 36ers, 30 Sep 2010
I gotta be blunt and say I am not overly excited by the last 2 games however I guess improvement will be for all to see in the first few rounds.
Regardless of how we do, the support never wanes.
Eventually we gotta turn the corner, and this year hasnt begun so we will see.

Nice effort from DJ. Hope that gets his confidence going. BTW, although he only had 3 rebs in this game, he did only play 20 mins.
Sixers clearly got smashed on the boards in this game, but to be fair to them, they out-rebounded Perth in the last game. It was the TOs that burned them in that one.
The thing I am liking about this Sixers team is that they are consistently racking up good assist totals. 23 tonight - Carter with 8 and Winder with 7. Seems like the ball is moving better and we actually have guys who can shoot!
Clearly need to improve D, rebs and TOs but it will be nice if I don't have to cringe at our offence anymore like I did last season!

Johnson Scored well in this game but only got 3 rebounds if he can get 5-8 on average in the season with around 8 from Holmes and Ballinger and around 5 from Hill, Dowdell and Creek we should be ok but wont be great rebounding wise as we do probably have one of the smaller teams.
Good to see Johnson get some minutes and put some points on the boards, i think a line up of Johnson, Ballinger, Holmes to start the front court will hold its own against most on the boards.

Wow....Rebounding count is like 19-8 in favour of Melbourne. I expected them to be ahead but so far ahead.
Thats not good. But turnovers arent too bad for the first half. Just our offense is critical considering we have more shots put up than Melbourne.
Second half has to be way better!
