Unfortunately the Boomers had a big loss to France in France this morning to complete their warm up games for the World Cup.

France 73 (Diaw 17, Batum 12, Diot 10, Lauvergne 10) def Australia 50 (Baynes 17)

I've started a specific thread for the World Cup:

The 36ers today completed their roster with the signing of Tom Daly a former 36ers development player who has been playing for Mt Gambier in the SEABL league.

Also a bit strange but the Perth Wildcats have announced they've released Mathiang Muo who they signed to a 3 year deal last season but did his Achilles in the pre-season and missed the whole season. Bit strange to release him now so late in proceedings.
