iiNet refusing to pay out on $5000 shot

Hurls, meet me at the South West bar and ill shout you a drink next home game.

PS I won't be wearing a red body suit with pee stains

it is a well known and established fact that "white australian males" have absolutely no place in Hiphop /end argument. the paragraph of dribble that was just posted just adds further proof to that fact.

I can hear your Mum telling you to go to bed and no one wants to upset your Mum, night kids.


p.s I really really really really hope iinet don't do the right thing and pay up ;)

6262, thank you for your input. You are correct.
As he is my brother i do have an obligation to "look after" him just a bit. i completely understand that at times he can be completely out of line with some comments and things so I DO understand what your issues are with him impersonally (i say this as you only know the digital Hurls not him personally) Please understand that he does not see the effects of what he writes here and on his behalf i apologise for some of his behaviour. in saying that it does not prove anything to entertain his ideas and for that all of those who have an issue with what he says here just don't reply. I could tell you why he does these things and it is a sad story but i cant right now or unless i have permission from him to divulge such information. Please be aware that things are not as they seem.


this was my favorite post by the way ;)

and mystro the saddest thing is that u are arguing on the net against the person who is directly affected by this topic. your a nobody sticking your opinions into a game where it will only end bad for u. wat do u aim to achieve by your comments? straight up loser = mystro


swap argue with laughing at
this is an internet forum where opinions are shared, right or wrong. I have shared my opinion on the subject and now I am laughing at it. my current goal in this topic is to further my entertainment which is so far going well.

I really really really would like one of the whiny children to please please explain how any of this is going to end negatively for me, I'm all ears? :)

Years ago

He is fairly tough behind his keyboard...why for he no take mu up on my offer?

please try and restrain your "mad" and go back and read over my posts and please point out any "tough guy" posts that I may have posted or any threats directed towards yourself or towards your "special" brother "Hurls"?

Hurls is prob blushing having his brother and his sidekick donning capes to save his reputation on the internet from total strangers bahahaha nah he's prob on msn calling out to his whiny friends to "get his back on tha net".

bahahahahaha, seriously is that it? Bipolar much? love the "Man up" comment coming from whiny children especially lmao

Years ago

Dear iinet.

It's not that I don't think you should pay out the whiny little child for his halfcourt shot, I think you should pay him out simply to save face and move on rather than tarnish the name of the Adelaide 36ers Franchise and the NBL. But in this case could you not as it is providing me with plenty of laughs via the interwebs.

Yours Sincerely
Mystro



P.S They are mad

Years ago

lmao, have you both got computers in your bedrooms or is the whole family crowding around in the lounge shaking your fists getting mad? this is gold :)

Years ago

sorry Hurls, your brother is now your spokesman and representative since he put his cape on, he also wants to give it a shake once you're finished just so there's no damp patches. He has also implied that you are slightly retarded, can you clarify this in your next "press release".

kthanxbye

sounds like you're lonely, maybe if you spent less time putting on a Cape to protect your brother from himself on the internet you might actually meet someone. failing that, get a dog.

p.s I bet you're really scary in real life lol

That was 'The NBL's foul play on a miracle shot '
lead up story for TT , just then on CH7 .

Maybe the way to settle this would be a half court shoot off. Hurls vs iinet

Isaac given how this has skewed into abuse and personal attacks a bit of clarity wouldn't hurt.

iiNet do like many business deny the claim in the first instance and hope people go away.

Those who exhaust all avenues - like Hurls, no doubt -and still get nowhere will only get their end from media exposure.

Any publicity for the NBL - even bad - is better than none!

MC was right to give him another shot by the rules.

But he's only entitled to the championship ball!

He entered the comp under the rules (implied or expressed).

Any other 'conversation' will rely on 'I said, he said' in order to prove a deviation from the rules.

Good luck.

A Current Affair will have a guy from iiNet with footage his foot was over the line.

Under the conditions you need to make A shot from half court to win $5,000.

If you miss you move to the 3P line and shoot for a Championship ball.

If you MISS the 3P you move to the FT line for a shot at a rubber ball.

"Who do you think i am?here is a hint: "Hurls mate turned to Hurls and said who is he?" who do you think i am?? Hurls or Hurls mate? "

you don't even get the benefit of doubt credibility with that admission

Years ago

Hurls, great shot but it was one shot to late. How many games have you been too? You know the rules. I'd be pissed too but I don't think you will get the coin. Court announcer stuffed up, not you. Man up, walk away and practice for the next time you get dragged out of the crowd. With support diminishing rapidly, the odds of getting pulled up again are increasing by the minute.

Years ago

they had 5k to give presumably if the first shot had gone in so why not just pay the kid and move on and save face. if the first one went in were they going to review the shot on video to make sure his toe wasn't on the line or the shotclock hadn't expired and then weasel out of paying up?

Years ago

Lol. I'm pretty sure it was a sweat stain. It's hard to believe something that size would contain so much liquid.

Years ago

Ya cain't just leave the ball there when it wedges
So ya go up and tip it in , as it's more in than out
A golfer left the ball over the hole and reckoned it was in , although it hadn't dropped in .
Later , it dropped in .

You are right Anon, I apologies Hurls if I've revealed your true identity to the world. It was inconsiderate of me.

I hope I haven't scooped TT or will they withhold the details of your identity.

Years ago

What the hell is wrong with iiNet? Just pay him the money and make it a good news story. Why must insurers/ lawyers/ whoever made this decision suck the life out of everything for the sake of $5k?

Years ago

Jarrod Walsh presumably does the promotional work and not Jarrod Hurley (AKA Hurls).

Well put together E=MC2 however I won't be surprised if this type of information is suppressed from the TT story.

if they said he could take a second shot for $5,000, its their stupid fault and they ow him the money, and you would think that they would rather pay the money than get a bad name for them selves on today tonight?

Years ago

I guess if Clarkey can endure Radford sitting next to him than Hurls shouldn't make too much difference (albeit in the Wallis Cinema seats).

The coaching staff will have someone else to blame for the bench tech.

And we'll see more threads on Hoops looking for people to play in his NBL team at Golden Grove Rec Centre ;)

Years ago

Agree with the majority of posts, he should be paid either by the club, iinet or someone responsible for the competition, and especially from a publicity point of view.

I'll give Hurls the benefit of the doubt and conclude he's been suitably advised that no money will be paid to him and he's not simplying being impatient (geez its not like it's a million dollars).

Nevertheless, and so the matter is resolved efficiently and appropriately (i.e. payment commences immediately and not in the form of weekly payments of $10 dollars for the next 9 and a bit years), Hurls needs to be crystal clear from whom he seeks the payment otherwise he could be chasing longer than he cares to.

It must have been sweat then.

Reckon a highlight was the guy in the red body suit.

Memo to guy in body suit.

If you're gunna have a few beers at the game and then you know what has to happen next.... Make sure you really shake it well, really well, cos it's kinda awkward seeing a wet patch. (guess that's why he was made to wear some shorts)

Years ago

The first shot wedged . I said to the people near me
' Aw , gotta give him $2,500 for that. '
MC : " What's happened there ? Whatta we gonna do now?
OK we'll give him another shot ."

Years ago

lol... Hoops reaching a new low with some of the comments in here... glad to see some rays of common sense shining through though...

Years ago

what else would the second shot be for? pride? he didn't say it wasn't for 5k did he?

Years ago

Was it a coincidence the court announcer wasn't there last night.

Pay the man the money he made the shot. at the time I said the first one would missed have missed so didn't deserve another but he made the second so for entertainment value give him the cash.


Did the kids that caught the beach balls last night get their villi's pies????

Years ago

they handed him the ball and encouraged him to take another shot yes?
then pay up. if it was anyone else on here they also would have taken another shot, I def would have been keen on another crack and I would def expect the $ if it went in.
it looks like amateur hour to not cough up the cash.

Years ago

I don't suppose anyone on Hoops has seen the contract agreement with iinet regarding the matter in question?

I simply ask on the basis of who are the parties involved in the event of the second shot from the half court line. iinet provide the funds had he been successful with his first shot, that is clearly explicit prior to the shot being taken but in this instance there was a second half court shot.

Did the MC explicitly state that iinet would pay if successful on the second attempt? If he didn't, than who did Hurls establish a contract with prior to taking the second shot? Was any form of reward offered verbally between the first half court shot and the second and if so did the MC advise who would facilitate the reward in the event Hurls was successful with a second shot?

It may be difficult proving iinet owe Hurls money unless it was specifically communicated to him by an authorised officer of iinet (or a person authorised to act of behalf of) prior to the second attempt being taken.

Years ago

Why are people so opinionated over $5000 arguably owed to Hurls?

Seriously get a life and/or dump your iiNet shares if the money means so much to you...

Years ago

Ok, well, atleast we know that if the organisation pays you that money, we will be putting up with Clarke as coach for the rest of the season. You still gonna come watch that??? You seemed impressed after tonights performance. 5k we could use as some of a buyout of clarke/ offer new coach etc. because we know iiNet wont be paying ya.

Years ago

Not arguing with the fact that the court announcer clearly had no idea what he was doing... Why he was given another shot was staggering. Clearly iiNet dont feel as if they have to pay, as the quick shot is simply that. One shot, miss it you lose. has been the same for everyone, why this bloke feels he is different to everyone before, and after him is beyond me. Obviously the announcer is at fault here, but you can be sure that neither him, nor the 36ers will pay the $5K . And surely lawyers will actually be more costly than even the prize he believes he as won in the end.

Years ago

Spoken brilliantly as if told so by a lawyer... if you are gonna post hurley do it under your name, not an anonymous alias. Man up!

Notice how it is channel 7 running an anti basketball story. Their ties with AFL are very strong. Can anyone tell me when they did a "hatchet job story" on AFL?

Years ago

No doubt iinet were not very happy the bloke was given 2 shots. didnt win the money fair n square. provided some entertainment though, more than what we are getting from the team atm. should give him the 5k just for that!
