Sixers Open Training session to public this week.

Hugh Greenwood training here this am , looked pretty good.
Harris some good cuts dunks blocks, but no staying power. Creek , peaking dunked on him. Pretty t watch.
Carter Herbert shot well on another court.
Hill very very sharp. Bruce Shannon pretty good.
Not sure about Howard.

If they offered me a pick on Bruce and Harris or Howard , for the next practice game.
I'd take Harris and Bruce.
Bruce is gonna have to leave us now I know
Harris is ready to play.

Anyways - I been burned before, so you won't hear me complain.

They are gonna practice box out, this week, after the NZ game.

There was only 7 or 8 , when I was there , for about an hour.
ABC TV news must've come after I left 'cause I saw something 'bout it on there.
Today , might be a few more, the day before a game
and will be a bit shorter.

Clarke n Howard seem agitated. Clarke sure stopped it a lot to correct him. Howard happier with Bruce.

They talked about and practiced getting onto NZs threes.
Hill shot threes pretty well as did Ballinger.
It's too hard to penetrate with Harris guarding, of course.

Went out, this morning, to take a look around.
Clarke had his 15 he could throw the ball to.
Harris back out, this week did a few good things.
His height is handy, obviously.
Kevin Johnson , a friend of Eddie Shannon's, with ability, another handy body to have and you never know
Shannon the pick of 'em today.
Bruce looked very good. Ballinger pretty good.
Not quite sure still/yet re Howard, although looked a whole lot better on Bruce's team, rather than Shannons, Johnsons team.

Im all for getting rid of anon posters! The forum seems to be becoming far to negative lately, mostly from anon posts.

Fair enough Isaac, although to be fair you would probably have more time if you were not out cruising in the Ferrari..(sorry, been a long time since it has been referred to ha ha).

Would be great if you ever get it going.

They should try to be like the mighty Cats 25 years in a row of finals along with 5 titles and the best and most devoted fans in the land with the best court side anouncer along with a brand new 14 thousand seat stadium next year to boot

Never a dark day as a Cats fan

While only Saturday , Clarke made his mawkish comments in reply to - " You're training 'em tooo hard, lifting too many weights. "

Speaking of things to do Isaac, did you ever get that webpage going with all the basketball courts in the city on it?

I'm willing to start a fund to put together the $$$s Isaac requires to develop 'Block Anons' functionality.

They would train more than that!

They used to train first thing, then do weights, individual shooting, etc Basically a full time job

I would be surprised if they were only training 4 hours a week

15 out there having a game.
Reading around, reminded me of Crows Coach (Robert Shaw) . A defender who tries to mark , instead of spoiling won't play, next game and those who post negative comments won't be allowed in to training.

After last Sunday, it may be real Open Training - open to anyone who thinks they can do better!!

He wants to do more game-style training this week.
Reckon that'll be pretty good.
Maybe get Harris back out agen, Cattalini and others.

I think most of their trainings are generally open to the public.

They train Thursday and Friday from 9am - 11am.
