I really hate the Wildcats!

[Gozu]

Stick that in your a$$ Perth

If not for that bullshit Matty Knight flop last time in Perth we would've swept the season series against the pricks 4-0

[Jim05]

I really hate the Wildcats!

Yep, absolute flogs

[Wedgie]

Awesome win! Bloody missed it as I was so pumped about the EPL game tonight!

I got the 36ers at 15s when they were about 5 and 6 from memory. Feeling pretty good about that show of faith. I also loaded up on the Kings as I thought we might play them and lose in the GF. How the mighty have fallen.

How do you pronounce that first name? Is it Fu-Quan
Maybe he just hadn't done Fu-Quan enough

Seems an age ago since the Bullets flogged us by 19 and we looked like the cellar dwellers. I,d expect us to win by a margin in that vicinity and go close to cracken the ton tonight. Loving the honesty and consistency of the big men This year providing real back bone to the flair and brilliance of the handle and Sobes. I hope the locals remind Gibbo how much we don't miss him tonight

[Gozu]

It's pronounced Foo-kwon and Gibson injured his calf in the game against the Hawks and is out for 3-4 weeks but probably season ending.

[Brodlach]

Now that's a flogging. Could have been 50'points had the starters played all game

[Spargo]

Love beating those scumbags.

Wonder how Daniel Kickert sleeps at night. He's the one that started this flame. Since that exact date the Sixers have had a chip on their shoulder and their focus is second to none that I have seen in the NBL in a very long time. Such an impressive unit! Not the most talented team right now but their intensity, drive, focus and teamwork is as good as I have ever seen from any team in the league. Now to do it when it matters....

Quick turnaround the Cairns Taipans have announced the signing of new import Tony Mitchell a 6'6" SF who played in Israel earlier this season. He also played 3 games for the Milwaukee Bucks in the 2013/14 NBA season. Last season he played in China's second-tier league also called the NBL and averaged 43 ppg which included a 76 point game.

He's expected to make his debut for the Taipans tonight in Perth.

[Gozu]

The Wildcats get handed another game in Perth by a bullshit call by the refs.

Unbelievable.
