Sorry Bear you can not have both.

Geelong have two different organisation, that is how they get around the loophole.

Geelong Supercats (SEABL) and Geelong Association (BigV).

BigV players need a clearance to play SEABL. Geelong Youth League can not play in SEABL.

Geelong is administrated by one organisation though.

Melbourne Tigers are a very rare entity.

They are not association based. Players (parents) go there for the Gaze history and the chance to play for Melbourne Tigers.

The new kids that go to Tigers are usually pretty good if you look at what teams the new kids transfer into. A team can only have to two transfers per season.

If you look at who is coaching the BigV teams, seniors and youth league at Melbourne Tigers they are trying to keep the kids who make the juniors strong. Especially on the men's side.

Melbourne Tigers have dominated U/18's boys but have not converted this to youth league lately. The argument then is because our best players go to the AIS or college (Division 1 so they can not come back and play Youth League).

In Victoria you can have only a SEABL team or a BigV senior team not both.

Melbourne Tigers you either love them or hate them. No middle ground.

If they can keep the kids they will be a very strong SEABL team in 3 - 5 years on the men's side and probably quicker on the women's side.

SEABL is the pinnacle for many basketballers in Australia.

LV, this isn't MacDonald's debut season.
Singapore Slingers, and I believe also a stint in Perth before now.

Some big statements there HO, do you have anything to back them up with?

You have mentioned analysis but have presented none, just comments, somewhat contradicting ones at that...

A pathway is what that particular Association wants it to be, no one else can determine it for them I wouldn't think.

You can have SEABL and Big V teams, if you can afford it that is...
