Sixers 4th - So what?

The real point I was making was that their form at present won't see them progress much further than the first 2 rounds of instant elimination games. Who are they going to kock out to make it to the grand finals, Sydney? or Melbourne? It seems very much a case now of delaying the inevitable. I would not have spoken like this earlier in the season, but the team are not playing as well and like everyone else, I am still waiting for a noticeable improvement. All we can hope for is that they are hungry enough to win the championship and that may turn their game around. Everyone has to start getting serious about the job that's ahead of them.

EC???

Maybe have another look at the finals format


Elimination Round 1
5vs8
6vs7
winners advance loses out

Elimination Round 2
3vs (winner of 6vs7)
4vs (winner of 5vs8)

After that it goes into the best of 3 series.

So finishing 6th means you play a home elimation final in round 1 and if you win that you play an away elimination final in round 2.

Finishing 4th means you only play ONE elimination game at home.

So I'm sure anyone would rather only play one elimation game at home than one at home than one away.

Bogut recently revealed that he owns a block of land in Bayside Melbourne and is planning on building a home

Any chance he returns to Melbourne now, and suits up for United? We need a big man.
