Tall Blacks Euro tour
Swan Song for Casey anyways

I doubt Pledger is going to risk further injury by rushing back and we aren't lucky enough for it to heal up quickly in time to join the team.

I agree, we badly needed rebounding and as much size as we could get with Pledger out & Horvath was as close to a genuine 5 man as we were gonna get.

Frank is not a rebounder and is heavily perimeter orientated.
Its just not logical to cut the team's best rebounder especially given we are very small as is.
Australian Boomer fans would also be pissed if Lemanis cut their best rebounder for a 6"8 guy who shoots threes.

I agree, could have saved the program a fair bit of cash by not dragging Horvath around the world chasing a spot he was never going to get.
It would seem he was just being treated as insurance in case Frank couldn't get fit with his calf issue.

Paul, yeah except Vucinic has been saying that for years now. Its like his 'go to' excuse.
And my point is that if he was going to chose the imcumbent why didn't he chose him a month ago.

Casey Frank has been prone to the odd brain fart under pressure in the Black singlet so also not entirely happy about this decision either.

Frank in over Horvath.
Fuming.
Vucinic has a personal issue against Horvath. Horvath is clearly a better fit for this team. He smashed it on the boards and was one of TBs leading reboundersin all games despite only playing 15mims.
Disappointed for Horvath. BBNZ have treated him poorly for a while now and i dont understand it. If Vucinic is always going to go with Frank why even bring a guy like Horvath along.

yeah totally forgot about that bug that they all got, no wonder they're dying in the second half.


ominous signs

Tall Blacks lead both games at the half I believe. Good sign of things to come hopefully. I'm expecting a pretty big NBL season from Corey Webster.

WATCH HERE ON ADELAIDENOW WEBSITE TO SEE. COLLINGWOODS CAMERON CLOKE GET KNOCKED OUT BY SETANTA O'HAILPIN WITH A DIRTY KING HIT PUNCH DURING AN TRIAL MATCH THIS MORNING. THEN WATCH TO SEE HIM GET KICKED WHILE HE IS DOWN...
HE HAS GOT TO BE SACKED FOR THIS!
