state champs results

green45, I think that was the game that got called off. Pretty disappointing.

Someone said Mavs were up by 2 and walked off over bad refs.

Mavs were ranked 4th and West 6th going into champs.

One argument would be to go on seedings and Mavs end up 5, West 6. Another point of view would be to disqualify them in the rankings and they both end up as 10th ranked teams.

There is often criticism of pool seedings and after the even we can look at how the teams faired in line with their seedings. Just looking at the Boys State, the following can said:

(Team; Ave seeding; Actual Result; Difference)

Norwood: 6.0, 4.5, +1.5 better than seeding
Southern: 5.8, 4.3, +1.5
West: 7.5, 7.0, 0.5
Centrals: 5.5, 5.2, 0.3
North: 7.2, 7.5, -0.3
Woodville: 5.0, 5.3, -0.3
South: 5.5, 6.0, -0.5
Forestville: 5.0, 5.8, -0.8
Mavs: 5.0, 6.0, -1.0
Sturt: 1.25, 2.5, -1.25

Norwood and Southern punching over their weight, Sturt and Mavs under performed against seeding.

I would argue if a team is +/- a position, the seeding was accurate.

Looking at the State Boys, Norwood would be happy with U12B (+3 spots), and U16B (+4 spots) Southern should be happy with U12B (+3 spots), U14B (+2) and U18B (+2). West should be happy with U18B (+3). North happy with U12B (+2) but sad with U18B (-3). Woodville happy with U12B (+2), sad with U18 (-3) Forestville sad with U12B(-3) Sturt U12B (-3)

Quit sad when you realise that Sturt club was originally formed by an amalgamation of the two junior clubs of uniting church and windsor gardens . Not much humility or love your neighbour left there.

Sorry I should have clarified, this was upstairs in the stands there is a contest game set up with 3 small rings no where near the courts, in fact near the back fire exits.
I have some knowledge about the game and would never let my boy on a game court especially 5 pm on the grand final day of state champs.

Agree with the above comments, my son (7) was shooting at the dome today, at the contest rings in the back right hand corner and was picked on by the under 16 Sturt team for using a small ball, my boy felt terrible and now doesn't like Sturt, poor form by the sabres boys
