Premier League Finals Preview & Awards Wrap

Did. anyone see any of the other three games?

Was a fantastic game. North kept getting out but the eagles kept dragging themselves back. 9/22 from the line cost North. CJ hits one of those with 30 seconds left and they win.

Doyle back next week and it’s game over for the season to the rest of the league.

North did well defensively conceding less than 60 by 3/4 time. A couple of brain fades and. 36ers meshing well finally got win in OT. They are not unbeatable!

Does it really matter champ

Mcgriff was huge tonight - this coming from a West supporter. All 4 underdogs got the win tonight very interesting

League obviously told the umpires to stop Forestville winning but DJ wasn’t having any of it

"team" got unlucky tonight

always next year :/

Hey give me some credit (#315) as I triggered the response! :D

These blokes would be ‘hired guns’ anywhere they signed. Can you get over the fact it was in Adelaide, the city they play professionally in. Thanks

I thought the Sixers were playing the Jazz?

Will be fascinating to see the final score in the Rockets vs 36ers game

Doubt Boonstoppel came cheap. He would have had plenty of offers after his div 3 season

“I can confirm that north Adelaide contribute exactly the same to each of their men and women's team.”

Oh. So the budgets there, they just don’t spend it all

#090. Wrong again mate!!

At Norwood Kennedy is getting paid nothing, maybe a little petrol money. Desperate to be in Australia so playing for nothing and just a shooters role off the bench. Webbers earn good coin off court and Drew is VP I think still so wouldn't be after cash.

I can confirm that north Adelaide contribute exactly the same to each of their men and women's team. What Norwood is paying for a transfer of ONE player from Woodville is more than the entire payments to all players excluding Starling. This is confirmed in their annual accounts

There’s no way North have equal men and women budgets

Johns would have been looking at >10k for another QBL stint so would say 30k is a little excessive but no doubt he is still on good coin. Coaching would also be tied into these big Southern contracts you’d think!

There’s no way they’re spending $120,000 on their players when they’re already spending that on Nybergs groceries

Are you suggesting Sam Johns isn’t about his club? He’s about the most loyal guy in the state I’d say.

#8023 Probably pay for their own flights over too with your logic smh

And Tupac makes posthumous rap records right?

His Visa allows that??? I'm surprised at that!!!

You would think...

Pay with money West give them!

Imports paying for accomodation... you are trolling #7998

North paying 2 imports who are probably highest paid in the league and Atem not cheap.

Norwood paying Lycett and Stanbridge huge money and who knows how much the Webber’s take from their club plus two imports.

Thomas, two imports and West don’t come cheap.

Forestville have three 6ers and an import.

I think all would be comparable to Tigers paying two imports and two juniors.

Imports more? I doubt that - Legan easily the most credentialed of the imports prior to this season.

Brine 20k? Doubt it’s even close.

I suspect all 5 in finals are spending a similar amount.

Differences
Paying Brine 20k
Paying imports more
Paying Johns more

So in short, paying shitloads more than West who are paying way more than probably bottom 5 teams combined.

Do it without that team?

Or even better
