Adelaide vs. Cairns Trial Game
Somebody told me they see the 36ers at swimming
regularly (Thebarton)
I only seen JW one time , training in Ballingers top
He did look great.
John Williamson , million dollar man .
No one can shoot the ball ,
like John Williamson can.

JW and Creek spotted at pool this morning. All the senior women had their tongues hanging lower than their chins when John walked to the changerooms. Coocoon re-imagined. One primary kid heard saying "he's buff all over".
Told the old girls he plays for the 36ers. 10 new season ticket purchased after swimming they said.

Well for what i saw with 4 players out for Sixers,they did well today,Warren great pickup,Weigh
great pickup from Perth,Once Balls back we have scoring power,hope Williamson is as good as Warren,if he can get rebounds and some points i be happy,helliwell was open in key many times today but guards insisted to shoot outside,hes our Paul REES type player we need a screener and a rebounder,I think once we all play we will do better this season.
Hope everyone plays in preseason blitz in Brisbane.

Good game and the team based on the snap shot today looks good to me,
Helliwell plays the old "Reesy" role very well and will be a very handy pick up and great compliment to Johnson and Ballinger, who are a little soft inside, and allows Ballinger to play PF full time and shoot his mid range jumpers instead of trying to 'bang with the big boys' which is not his strength.
Warren looks good to me, hopefully he will be this years "Ervin" or atleast somewhere between Shannon and Ervin, looks to be a good all round player.
Weigh, looks like a great pick up to me, if he keeps this form up it will be a break out season, i think he plays a good all round game, shoots well, rebounds well, helps carry the ball, and was my MVP, hopefully he can have a 'cattalini' break out season.
Johnson looks good to, same as the end of last year and i could see him averaging somewhere around 15 and 8 this year, and Helliwelll (and hopefully Williamson) will help with his defensive defficiancies.
Only a pre-season game i know, but a good snap shot and i look forward to seeing Williamson in action, if he is half as good as Chris Williams who Newley compared him to we are in for a good season.

Thought Warren was gonna drop fifty , the way he started.
Ballinger limping, might walk in a week and run in another week.
All the rest will play , next game in BNE.

You're kidding right? they're missing 2x 10 point rated players, 1 of which is the point guard........ Crosswhite (the starting centre) played 10 minutes.......
yeah i'm worried.......

I know it's only pre-season.
But if I wa Cairns, I would be really worried.
They had Williams, Warren, Dusty, Crosswhite, Dowdell, Hill, Grabau..A large core of their team.
Not too many guys to add to that, and yet they still lost.
Early front runners for the Spoon IMO.

About a thousand there.
At the start Warren easily dribbled around Cairns from the backcourt to layup , twice, then shotta coupla threes.
I guess they had to double up on him and he sat for a while and gotta few more in the 4th.
Ng topscored mostly from threes fed by Helliwell and Warren.
Weigh pretty good, missed a few easy ones , as did Johnson.
Not much depth, on the bench, today.
Wade Helliwell was my best player , over 4 qtrs
even though he didn't score a lotta points
and they don't feed him a lot.
