anon (#38101). Dodman is country, Rhino, obviously metro. I haven't seen Rhino play so I can't pass judgement.

Agree that there is 4 or 5 legit playerz. But most are bottom age and I dont think they will be able to play storng enough. Qld Sth with SA old boy Richard Orlick coaching them should be the team

Yep- i think it is called doing well at school and getting a career. Country kids give up a lot and in the end, they have to decide what is more important and what playing state is actually going to do for them in the long run- probably just waste lots of money. It is much easier for the metro kids to keep going with basketball which is why they end up with all their players from previous years staying in the sytem, while teams, like the 18 country girls, are stuck with a pretty average team

SA country girls won't do too well i don't think. Many r playing district now but still, without Bishop and Francis they will struggle. Many country ppl drop out by 18s anyway- who knows why??? I think the girls only hav a few original members of the team that went to tassie left in this yrs squad, unlike metro. Why do ppl drop out towards 18s,particularly the country bumpkins???

anyone heard of Jordan Dodman?
word his, that kid can play.
Who from SA Metro has the size, strength, range and experience to match?
In the womens, with the squad available, i think Metro would be disappointed with anything less than a medal.

What about the SA Country men? they should feild a pretty good team with some big name talent but how will they rate against the other states?

SA country girls will struggle. SA Metro will kill it.
