Ain't karma a bitch, Joey?

I am a biased Wildcats fan. I feel the disappointment is often larger when expectations are high. If you looked at Adelaide after 5 or so games then to have made the play-offs is a good result.
Topping the table was itself a great achievement.

Strangely now the pressure is on Perth. A week ago we were all relived just to make the play-offs, now suddenly Adelaide is out so were are favourites. We had no expectation of winning another championship but now if we don't there will be major disappointment.

Fair enough. I disagree though. The other things are bonuses but to me the ultimate sign of achievement for a team is to win the competition. I'd swap any of the others for that. When old farts like me crap on over a beer the discussion is always "Remember '84 when we won it all" never "remember '87 when we got ROTY"

I'm contesting your remark about Brisbane. One got the spoon. Another had two first-teamers, the MVP, MIP, COTY, ROTY, and other milestones. That's achieving more than Brisbane and those things will enter discussions for years to come regardless of a championship being the ultimate.

Sure they all count for something, but really don't mean anything. As a coach for 16 years I've had to stand in front of teams in a change room after a loss like that in similar circumstances and tell all those lies. But they're still lies. I know it, the players know it, Joey knows it. I think you know it too.

After all those things you can say they "achieved" this year, losing last night is even harder to take. But it doesn't really matter if you're undefeated regular season and top the table or you scrape into the finals on a countback, in pro sport if you don't win it all you've achieved zip. It's not U12's, there's no participation award

The ring's the thing. You can puff out your chest with all the feel good stories you like, in the end they've achieved no more this season than Brisbane did.

Ok, you lost any credibility saying there aren't any faeries at the bottom of the garden, pull your head in mate...

You get what you put out into the universe, and while the smack talk was great to watch as a fan of the game, you gotta back it up otherwise you have to face the consequences and that's what Randle, Creek and Joey will have to deal with...

Disagree that 36ers achieved as much as the Bullets, that statement is an oversimplification and just wrong...

LV, Bevo has done a great job with a tight budget and who everyone outside of Wollongong gave them no chance of making the playoff let alone the g/f and he would be super proud of his players.He will be so happy for the fans and everybody involved with the Hawks.I think Adelaide shooting of there mouths(RANDLE,CREEK AND JOEY)didn't help and especially being a young team there heads weren't in the right place.

Suck shit 6ers!!!


Unfortunately i know of no human being with a mouth big enough to encompass your skull and thus form a seal around the hole to vacuum out the contents..

perhaps you could try to borrow some class from a primary school drop out ?

Spot on LV this was a hell of an achievement by Joey one of the greatest coaching performances in NBL history. Finished the regular season top of the ladder first time a Sixers team has done that in 17 years and came within one game of the GF.

You might not personally like Joey but only a complete imbecile wouldn't be able to recognise how great a job he did this season.

Duke Fan when 2/3's of your team had next to no professional experience, making game 3 of a semi is a great result.

Suck shit 6ers!!!

Once you said "Joey, I said Mate, I said Joey, I said Mate, don’t mess with form. Just accept that you will have to face the Wildcats in the Grand Final and get on with it." I knew you were "special"

Karma isn't a thing like ghosts aren't a thing like gods aren't a thing like fairies at the bottom of the garden aren't a thing, like Hawks being a dirty team aren't a thing, like Adelaide players being far better players than the Hawks players aren't a thing .


Fixed

Karma is a thing, have you not seen my name is earl...

What did his team achieve? Finished equal last along with everyone not Perth or Illawarra.

Seeing Bevo beaming from ear to ear reminded me how much this all means to him. Champ.

Joey should be proud of what his team achieved this year. Great effort by the 36ers.

Listen up moron!

Karma isn't a thing like ghosts aren't a thing like gods aren't a thing like fairies at the bottom of the garden aren't a thing.

Shit happens. Deal with it!


Note: Joey wasn't listening to you and will continue to not listen to you. You are talking into the void.

"Speak for yourself Bevo's a twat"

So, Bevo is a twat and Gleesons a flog, and yet they're the 2 grand finalists lol

Speak for yourself Bevo's a twat

We still love you Bevo!

Just looked at the ladder and saw the Tigers are 2.5 wins behind Cairns (4th).Then I checked the game score and the Tigers are 11 up at three quarter time. I'm wondering if D-Mac can do the unthinkable and take 4th from Cairns. What do people think?

On a related topic, Sydney are 3wins behind the hers, with 7 games left. Clearly Robilliard will have put a big target on the 6ers' back, to motivate the Kings' players. Do they have any chance of catching the 6ers or will the 6ers start winning again and shut them out?
