NBL Pre-Season: 36ers vs Taipans, Sep 26
Were those losses in Perth blitz games? More than likely (it’s the advertiser after all) it’s just shitty reporting, not someone claiming they didn’t lose at all.

Valo are Nexgen lighting rebranded.

It's probably another LK sourced sponsor who won't pay cash and in lieu issue equity in their startup instead.
Soon all clubs will be cash poor and the NBL will become a diversified startup company fund manager.



I had the same thought Isaac. Two smackings by Perth don't count as Preseason apparently. Maybe they were added to the end of last season?!

A dominant 99-75 victory against Cairns at Titanium Security Arena continued an unblemished preseason, reinforcing Adelaide’s lofty season hopes.Unblemished? Didn't they get beaten twice in Perth?
The comprehensive four-quarter performance ticked another box on Joey Wright’s preseason checklist, the Taipans proving no match for the new-look 36ers outfit.
ADELAIDE 36ERS 99 (Drmic 16, Wiley 13, Johnson, Sobey, Deng 11)From the 36ers' site.
CAIRNS TAIPANS 75 (Trimble, Loe 16, Newbill, Hall 13)


Great game so far. Some really nice highlights no idea why the NBL page isnt posting them? Great poster by Drmic!



I was a 36ers board member for a long time and have never posted on here but felt it was time to put a few facts on here.When we won the title in 2002 we were under the salary cap by a lot in fact we won with a budget team.The problem with this was several people in the front office felt this could continue and wasted money on marketing people who were a hopeless and gave us bigger loses financially.Several of our meetings player recruitment wise were destroyed as the CEO decided he would handle negotiations they were a disaster to say the least yet this continued for 5yearseventually destroying the clib.The Sixers board went from having imput and succes to almost no value other than token.It was painful for all of us who cared so much about our club watching decisions we agreed to only to be totally disregarded the next day.Phil Smyth at the time had to wear most of it as he was the coach not once did he ever bring the club and this mess into the public forum instead trying to as we did keep the club on track.Behind the scenes people were working to get him replaced so they could achieve there own interests which they did for a while and we have seen those results.I wonder if Smyth had been given the support financially that Clarke is getting we would be playing finals and be fun to watch not sitting on the bottom of the ladder.Many of the posts on here are extremely inaccurate our club has been crushed by poor administration now people with their hearts in the right place and poor coaches.Another time I will post some of the decisions that were over ruled by the CEO and it will stagger all of you i fear for the survival of the team we all love
