Champion Schools 2008

[face]

Any news on who is fronting up for CBSQ 2008? Heard it may be up to 80 teams in total to be played at Logan and Beenleigh. What do the Division splits look like?

[Unregistered]

What do you think

Mountain Creek and JPC would have to be close - espcially if twins are back then abit of a drop to the rest then mainly the GPS schools TSS, IGS etc?

Anyone else?

[Unregistered]

Runcorn?

[Unregistered]

Runcorn?

Runwho ?

[Unregistered]

TSS will be strong, JPC yes if the twins are back, IGS will go ok. BSHS potentially and supposedly PBC is undefeated playing some good ball. Can never look past towny or Mountain Creek, 2 underated schools that can be very tough if they turn up to play. Runcorn aswell will be consistant...should be close pools except for the token crap schools from GC turnin up to be smashed haha PBC the only half decent school from them ways

[Unregistered]

JPC far too strong for any team in the south.

[Unregistered]

jpc got no guards

YOU KNOW!!

[Sam B.Delight]

Black horse in this years race again, rumors have it they have new players coming in, never been trained but very tough, straight from bodybuilding or something, stand back injuries sure to occur there, too bad Hillcrest has too much sportsmanship not enough psyche haha

[John Stanple]

I seen some of em before, nicest people once you get to know em, Hillcrest great basketball team if they get their act together, just depends how much they want it

[Unregistered]

Yeah i know most the Hillcrest players, dangerous when they are psyched up, bit of angry dog in them when they want to, but when they just play without being pumped up they're no bodies, they'd wanna hope they bring their psyched up aTTitude to this years champ schools if they wanna get anywhere besides last haha, all they did was play with no heart c'mon Hillcrest where'd you go?

[Ben Dover]

So good, best dancers in that team when their psyched up ready to play, saw em at Hillcrest hosting Nationals christian basketball representing QLD, if they play with as much heart as they did in that tournament, they should go well, if not though consider them ordinary.

But i agree Very nice people, strong people awesome though

[Unregistered]

haha Hillcrest no heart no win.
END OF STORY, true dat, until they come ready to play they are nobodies no matter how kind they are

[Unregistered]

YOU KNOW!!

Just Jokes!

[Lil giddo]

I agree they're not all that great with basketball, but when they all play as a team with heart an all they can get some good results, just depends how ready they are to play and what intensity, caus ei think theyre losing their intensity heaps.

2. Mountain Creek
3. TSS
4. PBC
5. BSHS
6. IGS

Ok so any reason you dont rate runcorn - they had a lot of guys from the team that won schools.

JPC - crombie and semerads
Mt Creek - Maroochy state champs
TSS and PBC - most of south coast team
BSHS - are they really this high even with wallis
IGS - the big fella and roetller

Wouldnt Churchie be higher than some of those teams??

The reason i dont rate Runcorn, have they ever qualified for Champion Schools before ?? They are not a reknown basketball school, they will get destroyed.

Destroyed? HAHAHA

You make me laugh.

Runcorn!!!!!

[Unregistered]

are the semerads back and gonna play in cbsq?

[Unregistered]

it' be cose between TSS and JPC...

[Unregistered]

it' be cose between TSS and JPC...


Not really, TSS only just beat PBC by 3 points. So they will have to improve a lot if they want to beat JPC.

[Unregistered]

it' be cose between TSS and JPC...

And JPC although understrength a bit lost to West Moreton last week - first time in about 14 years they have lost a game in TSS so go figure - you can look at scores all you like and it means nothing it is what you do on the day that counts.

heard JPC, Ippi and Tropics are in one pool too

[Unregistered]

yeah saw pools at game last night from memory

Pool A - Mt Creek and Nudgee
Pool B - JPC, IGS and Tropics
Pool C - State and PBC
Pool D - Runcorn and TSS

No draw but guessing they would try to keep last years finalists on opposite sides - so easy option would be for A to cross over with D and for B to cross over with C. That would set up a possible 2007 rematch

QF
QF1 Mt Creek vs Runcorn
QF2 TSS vs Nudgee
QF3 JPC vs PBC
QF4 State High vs IGS (over tropics)

Then cross over again
SF
Winner QF1 vs Winner QF4 = Mt Creek vs IGS
Winner QF2 vs Winner QF3 = JPC vs TSS

Final
Mt Creek vs JPC
Semerads = JPC
No Semerads = Mt Creek

Wonder how close that will be?? Hope they set it up for the possible rematch but.

[Unregistered]

are the semerads back and gonna play in cbsq?

They are back at school but I don't know if they are playing.

[Unregistered]

Pool A crosses to meet Pool B
Pool C crosses to meet Pool D

Dont like any crossover which has the 2 finalists and potentially top 2 this year crossing over before semi's. Guess you have to beat all comers

If varsirty wins a game or even 2...il round round the stadium naked hahahahahahahahaha so in other words varsity has NO CHANCE!

Can we get a name to hold that to?

varsity have a strong shot at beating towny. terrace will be a challange, too big. I think they can beat ibswich though. Just not JPC.

From other pools, if they end up against nudgee, helensvale, shailer, bbc or pbc again, they could have wins with any of those teams.

You're obviecly from pbc, so give us a name so we can make sure ur runnin' naked when they win their second.

yeah cairns have lost players now only going with 7 will struggle to make top 8

[Unregistered]

this year is an open field im thinking a rundown of the team.

jpc - i really dont see them winning because they have the best forwards and bigs but absolutly no guards, you can have the best big men but how are they going to get it up the floor and give them the ball..

Mt creek - i think they are the favourties having the bulk of there team back, plus a few additions in jed and seth, best guard in the league in izzy, all round team i think they are "my" pick.

State High - if it was a game of talent they would go close if not all the way, but do they have a big? tom laycock, andy chen, scott willis, jim wallis, wez phillips but thats all, good starting 5 but veryy small, should be able to run but word is there coach isnt into that. wouldnt be suprised if they have a big crack at it.

TSS - again another solid team, but do they still sit in a zone? against team like eg state high and mt creek if they sit in a zone, it'll rain 3 balls with both teams having shooters everywhere, overall nice team they have been praying and waiting for there chance in gps and states, but they need a man defence to go with that zone otherwise good shooters and crombie will go to work.

Cairns - Always around the mark, but without george coe this year i dont really see much within the guard spot, chittam if he goes good but i dont think he can win it on his own but should go top 6 easy.

Ipswich - Best team Ippy have ever had, but i cant see there 3 players doing much in a tournament, if one of those three ie marc goes down, they are stuffed, on a week to week basis they would go ok, but back to back will be tough, big matty deffinetly the key to them inside, but denzel will get outplayed at the point by say izzy and andy/tom laycock.

Townsville - Dont see them as good as they have been, they are rebuilding there school basketball now after the cedars have left, i have no clue who they have to be honest.

Churchie - Aint even playing in the comp, sad really thought they would deff be up there.

whoever this fool is on bendoes pumpin up varsity is a disgrace. 2 back ur talk up u have 2 win games mate...and u guys havnt. stop makin excuses sayin u guys had off games cos thats all u guys ever have. 2 b honest u will struggle and all these games u think u can win is funny considering ur only good player is correa and lets face it, he cant do it ALL. can i have ur name so wen i get up there 2 watch i can see how much of a contribution u actually give 2 a skill lacking varsity? hahaha

TOP 6: (This year will be a wicked comp cos it is tight)

1. JPC or Mt Creek (JPC will win if Semerads are playing)
2. JPC or Mt Creek

its funny how no one rates Runcorn.

the boys won again today in their met fianls.
dominating albany creek in the final. by bout 50. back to back championships for Runcorn.

also 7 of their players were in the met west team that won in toowoomba.

which beat sunny coast not once but twice.

atleast rate them in the top six.

even though this will be their first year at champion school. you gotta rate em!

[Unregistered]

nah no jeromie for cairns he made national team so wont make cbsq

i rate runcorn as a top 4 team for sure

Cairns still have some talent up there, with or without jeromie i won't rate them out of the top 4.

20 teams in div 1 thats stupid. These high school teams that think they can mach the top 8 are joking, they should play div 2 where they belong, and stop wasting time.

Every body will be cut this year to find out that the hazzanator did'nt make the final cut and will not be playing for cairns high at champions school this year. After his nba nbl qabl nationals and classic performances how hazza did'nt make it i have no idea.

Iagree too many teams they should have regional playoffs, then take the top 12 teams and then have four wildcard spots like they used to. It is a big money grab for bball QLD, and the sad part is they cant even run it properly...8,9, 10 year old refs, if refs at all. Quality of refs drops with so many teams.BYO score bench etc games for HS kids at 8, 9 at night or 8 am. what good is it to play a team and beat them by forty then play a 2 point game and then win next by 30 its not good.no wonder basketball is going down the tubes with a bunch of monkeys running the show. Go Runcorn!!!

TSS / Mt Creek - Final
JPC?? I reckon the Samrad twins wont get the ball enough.... WIth good guards in both TSS and Mt Creek, with Man-to-Man Defence whilst JPC have good Fowards in the twins, they simply cant compete with an all round team like Mt Creek and TSS...

Don't TSS have some dude who trains with the Blaze???? If so he should be hard to stop!

Yes, Jayden Tom. He made shadow for 18's south this year. He's good, but Crombie shouldn't have a problem with him.

Jayden Tom? I think you mean the Hazzanator. Seriously this kid will pull down 15 rebounds, 10 assists (amongst other huge stats) and will easily drop 50 on any one. Fellas, in his local Cairns games he is always a force to be reckoned with; having at least 3 defenders on him and thats before he enters the paint.

Crombie is good! But I saw one of their rep games GC verse Bris whoever and Jaydan shut him down and had about 6 blocks on Crombie and Crombie had 6 points to Jaydans 23. TSS could be good with a few state shadows, 1 state player, and 7 rep players or seomthing like that.

Sure Brisbane high has played well but to get to the finals they had to beat the team playing off for 3rd (After having to grind all game against Cairns high) and the team playing for 7th... They had a pretty easy run to the fials, including pool games. Whereas teams like Cairns high had last years Nationals champs in their pool then cross over against a fresh JPC team, although they should of won. I can nearly guarantee you a win for Cairns high against BSHS and Ignatius park.

what happened to the state high girls? did anyone see the game? what happened!

St Peters played well and led by 20 plus at half time. St Peters had beaten them by 8 in the earlier round. In this game they jumped out of the blocks with a fantastic first half and State High had no answers. The second half saw State High come back to within about 10pts, St Peters were looking very tired but hung on for a worthy win. Odette was held to 2 points for the game, great defensive pressure applied. Good luck to the girls this afternoon.

BSHS played their a$$es off against JPC and were the better team on the night. And in the 1/4 they got up in overtime over the Runcorn team that beat TSS... Hardly an easy road to the final... Especially for a team with no bigs!

They deserve to be there and might even be able to pull off another upset against Mt Creek.

Iggy lose to Mt Creek by 8 & cairns lose to them by 31 and your gonna guarantee Cairns would beat them. I would love to know what you base this theory on & also whether you have actually seen any of the games. What a loud of crap.

Cains high know how to play defence on a one man team....not that hard to do. Yeah i have seen two games, Cairns high smoke runcorn and smoke T.S.S, early favourites according to earlier posts from the losers that live on bendoes. But credit to BSHS's shooting in the grand final.

well done to state high - 2 state champs in 3 years

to do it without much height and a shallow rotation is even more impressive and shows they were the team most willing to work hard and get the job done - willis played so tough as a makeshift big guy and laycock, chen and wes were everywhere

all this talk of 'if' and 'buts' is irrelevant - these guys were rated 5th and took out the gong...congrats to the BSHS program

IP # 8 was the tournament stand out. MC # 4 was not in the same league, as daylight was second.

Johno Mines was strong, Jim from BSHS stepped up big time in the last 2 games, the role that Scott W played was awesome (no offence to Tom Laycock but a blind man must of selected the player of the final), JPC very dissapointing, TSS & IGS had their chances but the best "TEAM" came aware victorious. Even more impressive was that they were able to survive with a lack of genuine depth playing the last 2 games with basically 3 bottom agers and 3 top aged kids. No stacking of state OR QAS players as some other sides highlights just how well BSHS performed after being defeated in their first game.

The real "TEAM" stood tall through adversity and came away with a well desearved win.

About time some people realised that basketball is a TEAM sport and the best TEAM wins, not the best individual.

BSHS was the team that played to their strengths with all team members given a role to play and then carried that out to perfection.

Exactly, people can point out and individual players but in the end you need a team of 10 to win and every team always has that few great players.

Yeh number #10 had a nice post up and could hit the jumper.
Harry guides and them two Webley twins or were they brothers were also great.

Damon leaves for Italy tomorrow in an AIS/Aus U19 Emus team on a 3 week tour. Jeromie Hill, Todd Blanch, Brook Motum, Christian S, Mitch Young are all in the team. 6 Qlds out of 12 pretty impressive.

Sure, they got done by PBC in the play off but it wasnt at all a one sided game. Varsity will do well for hte next few years. Helensvale should never be champion division, they had nothing at all. Hillcrest, what a waste of scolarship money, didn't they get 6th? .. in div2

True, but when you've got grade 10's in the side, and its more of a 3 year program with those guys, you get experience. What better way to get experience then go against proberly 10-15 guys who will be playin for college roster spots in the next few years? A big more experience, a bit more strength, a bit more size and in the next few years, those kids who were there for the experience will be getting the wins.

School basketball will never get you places, but it's still great for experience. I think the only person they had pressure to perform was big Matt from IGS who had the scouts watching.

Its High school basketball mate, everyone of these schools played hard and finished every game off.

If any of those guys was seriously any good then they would be at the AIS. Damon is the standout and Jeromy from Cairns. The rest are just asoociation players . Lets get real boys. The standard is not really that good , not like in the past. So stop crapping on about crap players

The AIS has limited intake and they miss numerous oustanding players
There would be a lot of players at the championship who are good enough to attend college if they were to pursue it

[Unregistered]

That is true and the intake normally revolves around the next world juniors and if you are age correct. If you are not you better be one hell of a talent/prospect cause you will be no chance.

Add to that most of the so called graduates from the AIS also head off over to college anyway, some are good enough for NBL but these are few and far between. So if you are good enough for college and many kids are than great, take it and run with it I say cause its not like the NBL or for the better part your association will be able to help you.

Explanation not excuse.

Hillcrest took a young team of 3 grade 9'ers, 2 grade 10'ers, 3 11's and 2 grade 12'ers including Dane Taylor who has not been playing much for the last couple of seasons having discovered the joy of surfing.

They dominated the pool, finishing first. and then in the three team second round came up against the eventual winners. Josh Blank one of the experienced older players was out of the tourney due to concussion, Brodie Verall another senior player had left for an oversees trip and Dane Taylor rolled his ankle in the first couple of minutes - out for the game. So the youngsters fought well but William Ross were too strong.

So having lost only one game they were relegated to playing 5-8th. Such is the brutality of the draw in a tourney like this.

They won the semi and came up against Benowa. The two Gold Coast schools played a great game and Hillcrest were leading until Brad O'Brien just lit up! :eye-popping:

He hit 3's from everywhere, made strong lay ups and Bennie Harris like shots from the front of the hoop. Finshed with 31 and finished the Heat. He was well supported by his team mates including the two Smiths.

So who beat Hillcrest; William Ross and Brad O'Brien and Benowa.

dude who cares, hillcrest is full of excuses, at the end of the day ur a basketball team that is a waste of time. going nowhere fast, ur yr 12ers hate the team (Dane) and your juniors are shit (Brodie) but josh is good tho.

stop talkin shit on bendoes if u cant even live up to it in div 2 hahahahaha. u guys are the cockiest most untalented team on the coast. the only teams who can pump up the slightest bit from the coast are TSS even tho they had a shocker, PBC who had 5 players gr 10 and below, 3 in yr 11 and 2 in yr 12 and also Varsity who turned up and played some ball highly courtous of their main man 'D.C' who carved up.

so (in a nutshell) Hillcrest get of this site and stop talkin ur crap makin excuses for ur disgraceful performances. analyse ur game and accept ur performances as the best u can do instead of makin ridiculous excuses and lookin like fools to the rest of the coast school teams...

For those who have aspirations of playing basketball at a US College or professionally I would hope you aren't put off because you don't play for Queensland or are invited to the AIS. There are 1000's of college's you can apply for a scholarship to with simple a highlight tape and a couple of letters of recommendation from previous coaches.

And if you're after inspiration look no further than former refugee Ater Majok. He's played basketball in Australia for 4 years and never even made a rep team and he's now an NBA draft prospect!

If you have that as your dream don't let haters stand in your way.

Yep. I think our mate above has a bit of a problem with something positive coming out of it. Mate, Grab a glass of water, take a few sips, tell me if its half full, or empty.

Hillcrest are okay, there nothing special. They have a great coach, a few good players but don't compare to TSS and PBC. But, those 2 schools also don't compare to Creek High and BSHS.

That is true, I lived with Ater in Sydney, he went to the American International School that's based on getting kids from here the right subjects they need to attend college in the US. Ater has some amazing talent! On a trip to the states we played in the Pangos All-West camp and within one game he made the top 10 allstar game with 11 dunks... in one game... kind of speaks for itself when your versing a bunch of scholarship hungry americans, on that same tour we played in the Big Time tournament where the championship game had #2 Ranked Mean Streets Express (Who had Derrick Rose AND Eric Gordon ) vs #1 ranked SOCAL Allstars who had Kevin Love and Taylor king, crazy to watch, Gordon got a nasty dunk in the first quarter on like 2 of their players, its on youtube. The D1 greyhounds (Featuring O.J Mayo and Bill Walker) lost in the semis.

But yeah, I definently agree, its not whether "Basketball Australia" think your talented, that determine if you are or not, their are alot of kids that slip through the AUS basketball cracks, that could be getting college shine over in the states.

Show some respect, interesting how people get nasty about success. I wonder if you played on one of teams that they beat!!! They also beat the winners of the comp by 16, know any other teams that did that? They had a great time & didn't take it too seriously, and lets face it Champions Schools isn't the top of the quality tournamnent lists.

[Unregistered]

Lot's been said about Iggy Park and how they performed this year at the schools comp. I did see them train this year and it was twice a week and they rarely raised a heart beat. They never took themselves too seriously and this was the reason why they played so well. As far as next year. They will miss Damon but there is still enough talent around for them to be competitive.
this year was unique and the guys should be congratulated for what they achieved. They went out and played the game for fun and on the way beat some good quality opposition.
Personally, I enjoyed watching them go out their and really enjoy themselves without making fools of themselves. It was pleasant to see young basketballers just enjoying themselves on the court.
Congrates.

I am over in the UK and just wanted to find out about who was going to Nationals as I heard Mountain Creek had qualified. I came on bendoes to find some info and there is no thread or even a single post about Nationals. I noticed someone asked a few pages back who was going to Nationals and it went unanswered because everyone seems to be busy talking smack about ppl or saying this or that team should have won. So given that Nationals starts in a few days and there has been no discussion about it, can anybody give me any info about which teams are in the championship division as it doesn't appear to be on the website? Cheers

I am over in the UK and just wanted to find out about who was going to Nationals as I heard Mountain Creek had qualified.

Yep. I think our mate above has a bit of a problem with something positive coming out of it. Mate, Grab a glass of water, take a few sips, tell me if its half full, or empty.

Hillcrest are okay, there nothing special. They have a great coach, a few good players but don't compare to TSS and PBC. But, those 2 schools also don't compare to Creek High and BSHS.

May i remind you bshs did lose to Tss in Gps

May i remind you also that Iggy Park beat BSHS in the first game of champ schools by 15 so they could have easily been at nationals.

Congratulations to Mountain Creek. There are some pretty exciting players there who have had no help from QAS or BQ. They should be very proud of their effort and the dedication of their talented coach.

Been a big year for the Mountain Creek boys. BQJBC/Classics and now a National Schools Final game. None in the QAS and only two made State. Guess they just keep proving their point. Best of everything guys, "next play", one to go!

I though that they had to play in a BQ comp to actually get to represent. I wonder who pays for that. I wonder who pays for the nationals to be conducted? How does BA get its funds? I wonder if they use qualified refs? I wonder if any of them play in any other comps?
It all just happens.
Why don't you get back to doing what you do best, ripping off your rep players?

I think you only have to be enrolled as a student at the School to be able to represent at the National Schools Championships. (fair bet that these kids play at some level of representative basketball or local comp to be good enough to get to Nationals through the State qualifying tournaments.) Dunno the answers to any of your other questions. Maybe it's Basketball Santa or the Hoops Fairy??

Was this the same team that went to the Qld comp in september as they did really well for a young bunch. The must have a good program there who runs there program

Nah it was their U17s team not opens. There was about 5 players in this U17s team that played at All Schools in september, but no it was a different team.
They have a fairly solid program developing run by a few different coaches, mainly Ash Archer I think.
They will be strong in the next couple of years...

Come to this late, but you want to talk stats, it's a shame the girls ages weren't listed.
Average age of girls on that team just 15, a couple higher, most lower.Transition year, with JPC future looking bright with the mix of these girls and Orlick.
Same, same with Thunder, investment in the future.

Yes unlike last year.....looking to the future by offering a few more scholarships, poaching a few more here and there....to play in TAS...real high flyers....just maybe the whole WNBL team can come through JPC and we won't have to worry about junior club programs...they have it nailed....

wait, poaching......?
what schools did jpc poach from?
i'm not associated with any of them but i'm sure most of them came to the school from primary school to look for a high school or may have been there from a young age....

and I don't know about you but I thought it was good to offer scholarships?... from any school.. it might give some young guns an opportunity to shine.... no matter where their team ends up on a ladder.... they could be recognised... maybe its good to look into the future?

School basketball doesn't mean squat.

If I had my time again at high school, taking an offer from a school with quality coaching & a solid training program is excellent. I wouldn't worry about the games so much, they're lower quality and scrappy, the training is what these kids need.

Spending 6 hours a day with a basketball in your hand, you could only get better.

Jim Wallis? As in the year 12 guy from Bundy who played at State High last year? JPC never cease to amaze me, recruiting two year 12 boys to their school for BBall purposes.

As far as that side being a national contender, if they are then it does not say much for "national" school boys basketball. Everyone knows school ball is a distant cousin to rep BBall anyway so good luck to JPC. Whatever floats your boat.

Don't forget Julio Palez may still be around as he was doing Horizons. Hadn't heard of Richard Morris or Sam Wallace moving there. Is that official? Agree that they are formidable but lacking genuine bigs. Will need to play better as a team than last years players who also promised a lot on paper.

Nonetheless thay have at least four players who have represented Qld at rep level. (i.e. "national!")

they have all high quality rep players how can that downplay national school basketball? funny enough, jim came to the school of his own accord for a better program for his basketball future? and i dont think u can not say much about the program of jpc, as it has had great success over the last decade. Scholarships or not, they know how to make good basketball teams and great players.

And yes its official both sam and richard r now at the college.

I do disagree with you, show me ONE player who was made into a great basketball player by JPC? JPC have had sucess, but they just recruit PLAYERS already developed by others. Not to difficult to be successful when you recruit the regions best players into your system.

National school basketball is not even on the radar in the southern states. Truely; Mountain Creek were runnersup in the state championships and they made the GF of the Nationals!Thats all that really needs to be said, it don't even rate with real rep basketball.

As far as Jim Wallis coming to JPC of his own accord, please. I am sure he aint payin full fees like Carroll and Tarca who have beeen there since the day dot.

Personally I have no problem with JPC and the way they run their "program." I do get a bit annoyed when people try and give credit to the school for these players development. because it simple is not true.

[Unregistered]

I agree the jpc school basketball programme isnt that great most of the current open players boys and girls have come to the school already capable basketball players and the ones who have been there since day dot (previous post) just happened to be good ballers. Yes certain coaching staff offer individuals but I dont think they are free or part of the actual basketball programme and are only on offer to certain kids and the ones whose parents have fat wallets. You will find top rep players in the U18 age group will leave there old state schools to come to jpc for year 11 and 12 and hope for better coaching and a national title. Which they didnt even qualify for in 08. That aside the academic learning opportunites are unequalled.

[Unregistered]

Jpc simply think they can flash cash and take players who other coaches have developed.they win because they pay for players.try developing some ballers and stop stealing.as far as education there are plentyof state or private that get results without wanky over priced fees just so you can say I went to jpc, wake up and smell the roses get out of the thinking that jpc is a bball force, BS the schools that do the hard work deserve some props

[Unregistered]

recruiting is what happens when our best juniors decide to go to american colleges. free education good coaching great competion, jpc have an experienced coach but no real junior program so to remain the big fish in a small pond must offer incentives to entice parents and players to the school, however there is no competion of any substance to play in and only the exceptional will succeed at the higher levels and they can without going too this school,in the end its personal choice.

[Unregistered]

jpc do it every time, after they have a bad year they pull something out to get someone or something big, after last years brisbane state high team just straight out played them, they come 4th worst jpc has done is years, i think mt creek will now be gone for a few years, state high are getting started as if you can see the players coming in for year 8 this year they will be very good they have 7 of the logan u14 team coming, grade 9 they have a few players coming over.. as for jim wallis going to jpc from state high, i dont see why he would do it for basketball perpose, he goes to jpc he will see half the game and wont get nearly as many opportunities to score, if he was at state high he would pretty much get free range to do whatever he wants, at jpc he will see max 20min a game because they are deeper than state high, and with the team his not going to be an inside outside player, just inside which he isnt.

[Unregistered]

in order to combat rich high schools poaching players in the USA system if a student does move schools for sport they have period of time they must sit out ie 8 games or so. By poaching players like jpc they are weakening the comp and no one improves.recruiting is necessary in us college not in qld hs ball.jpc kidding themselves

jim wallace... will be a spy for state high, but honestly as long as we have the cock... pulling off his vintage runners, as well as ridiculous fitness, he'll win this years state champion title single-handedly...
