this is a strong opinion. there is still 8 games left till finals and 10 till classics. teams will improve as they gain there footing and then any team has a chance at taking out classics. those 3 teams are the favorites yes, but there are plenty more teams with talent and ability to beat those teams
I believe there are a few other teams who can spring a surprise at classics...
thos teams being;
spartans- have showed massive improvement since start of season and without a few players against logan definately showeed the comp they can mix it with the top few teams and i think with continuing improvement can win..
logan- dark horse have instruments to be a damaging team and possibly win classics
runaway bay- as shown against m'dore, can beat the best teams..[/QUOTE]
Logan ---individual players don't win games...teamwork does!!!

The much anticipated Seahawks v Gold Coast "rematch" as a curtain raiser to the Blaze game yesterday looked like a made for television scripted affair. 40 all at full time and no extra time!
Still it wasnt for any competition points as Seahawks can kiss them goodbye despite all charges bought by the GC court controller being dismissed by BQ. Both coaches on their best behaviour but thought the boys looked a bit overawed playing on the big floor in the entertainment centre and all. I was particularly looking for the kid(s) who would realise that a number of influential NBL people would be around , grab the opportunity with both hands, and go to work. Couple there with raw potential look promising for next years 20's.

Three recent ones are Chris Goulding (U19 Aus team 2007 Worlds), Cameron Bairstow currently at the AIS and has recently committed to a US university, Garrett Scheibner was not in the NITP program at all when selected to play in the recent U17 Oceania qualifier, he is now in the NITP program however.
John Rillie was never in the ITC program before he went to Tacoma CC, then Gonzaga and of course represented Aus. at the 2004 Athens Olympics.

Interesting to see a player retained in the final squad who under the BQ's own selection criteria does not meet this criteria. To be elidgible for selection and to represent QLD, players need to meet 2 of 3 criteria.

Luke Odendyke is the lad you are reffering too. Injury is why he is not currently in a BBI rep team. I think you will find he has the all clear to play rep after the Chrissy break.
The kid missed a whole year because of a very serious back injury and has been eased back into playing again on doctors orders. At 209 cm tall no wonder he has had back problems, good luck to him I say!

Is this list correct correct, as i seen both Bergens in toowoomba today. Also thought i seen that Brandon kid from Brisbane Silver. Still suprised to see Sam Cabrera there, holy shit how can you still be in a squad and not participate in 1 training session truly amazes me.
He attended 1 training at Logan had a run, spewed all over the court (unfit) and made Murray Aldred clean it up, gee the kid must have some pull at BQ.

Why is it strange to take 2 players who both play in the post over a player whose natural game is to float on the wing more like a small forward, when you have a team already loaded with Perimeter Talent but waning inside. Makes sense to me

They play a different game to each other. Yes they play the post and jeremy is alot bigger in size then jarrod, but jarrod can shoot the outside shot. If you look at this team you can see that most of the players all have the tallent to shoot outside. Max and sam dont shoot the 3 as much because they dont need to. They have the hight to get rebounds and score under the basket.

Jeremy doesn't rebound. And Jarrod gamble doesn't post. Gamble floats around the mid range for jumpers. Mainly because there is a lack of guards willing to feed it inside.

Guards not feeding the ball inside is pretty standard in Qld. The day coaches realize the money shot is with the bigger inside player and teach guards this rather how not to use a big player and to make a play to only for guards we won't move forward.

I think thats why maroochy has the edge. Brisbane guards would rather throw up a 3 ball than feed a big man. Maroochy are almost as bad but do often give the big a look. I guess there is no "I" in maroochydore.

because most of the coaches have no idea how to coach big men and if players themselves at one point most of them would of been guards. Lack of knowlege.

What gets me though is coaches and small guards are happy to stand back and let bigger players rebound and both ends box out do most of the hard work under the basket while they stand back and watch yet think differently when it comes to shooting the idea is smaller have better ball skills which should confuse the defence to open more space for the big but they don't see that a assist is just as good as a basket.

Guards have to be able to understand the game to be able to create which transposes well into coaching. Big men are finishers and some make good coaches (particularly individuals) but they arent used to seeing the game from the backcourt.

Ha ha in a sense you may be right, in that big men are usually thrust into the game because they are exactly that, BIG! I'm not saying big men can't be good coaches, I'm just saying this is probably the reason a lot more are not. They just play the game because their bodies say they are "suppose to". More than anything though it's probably just a coincidence. That and guards "are smarter" of course! :-)

Try telling that to the fantastic coaches and players in the NBA, were the bigs here are mostly the size of great guards over there, (6'6 +)and the small guards here would not even be considered or make it thru high school in the US because they are soooo small . Which is why basketball comes across as crap here. And will stay like that till we wake up. :-)

???? um fault of the "game" where bigs need different skill sets and guards (smaller people) need better handles and court vision????? The surest way to score in the game is to stuff it in the hole with two hands and its probably just a fact bigger people have a better chance of doing that than smaller ones. Not sure if anything or anyone is at fault. Maybe its just the way it is.???

Maybe the bigs are burned by the game so much after the cocky guards and coachs and parents just expect them to keep banging it up in the paint. What thanks do they get for it? "You only got 4 rebounds and 6 points tonight, a(worked 5 times harder) and I got 25 points and 2 steals" however the big has 10 shots to the guards 30? ( guards run 3 point line to three point line and jacked up crap all game).
Change the mentality of a guard and you will breed and promote effective bigs regardless of their size.
I believe there should always be a mixture in a coaching roster, guard and bigs, that will breed success. I will always bring in a bigs coach specifically I. My rep teams cause only they know and understand the effort and strength and skill involved in being a successful forward/center.
We see it every game, a guard coach it's a transition and outside game, get a big as a coach and it will be a post and motion game. Suits both positions!!!

I really meant to say they had the easier side of the draw,they didn't play brisbane,logan who would have beaten them no problems.

Think Maroochy beat a full strength Brisbane side by about 20+ last time they played. In fact I think only Seahawks GC have troubled them this year? Maroochy have a culture of toughness when playing away at Classics and peaking at the right time of year. Be interesting though.

Yep your are so right, I have a lot to learn. My guess is you do to, no coach/player stops learning or researching (new tactics, plays, drills etc). You are 100% right in your whole post, if everyone does their bit you will be successful as a team. I was commenting on coachs in general and how their background influences the teams they coach.
I dont know what you think I was chatting about?

Chia's spot was well deserved. If I was a coach I'd have him starting. I don't care who the other guards are whether its garrett or jake it doesn't matter. The boy is a work horse! He may not shoot as well as the other two but has a huge heart and plays for the team. He works hard on defence and offence and always seems to be in the right spot. He passes the ball well and gets his team involved unlike many guards in the league. He is modest player too which says a lot about him. I have no doubt nick chia will go a long way in basketball.

You must be looking through rose coloured glasses because garrett bc seth cam and jake allen come before nick. Yes he is a top player but bottom age nice to see two of them get there (Jarrod)They wont let QLD down but this their learning curve . A couple of guys who trailled well for state and did not make it played well over the carnival weekend Dylan Kay Gc Doug Jones MDore Aaron Eathorne MDore Argon Logan. It looks as though we have heaps of mid range players, need to develop bigs. In saying that the boys in the under 16 comp are huge eg S Districts Brisbane and Northside

Yep your are so right, I have a lot to learn. My guess is you do to, no coach/player stops learning or researching (new tactics, plays, drills etc). You are 100% right in your whole post, if everyone does their bit you will be successful as a team. I was commenting on coachs in general and how their background influences the teams they coach.
I dont know what you think I was chatting about?
I've found it best over time to do my learning quietly from the best teachers available and put my learning into practice with teams oncourt. Yeh going to Nationals with good coaches, going to NBL practices or the odd World Championship and dialogue with College Coaches is all further learning and only stops if you lose interest.
Dont think I was mistaken in reading your post about guards jacking up 25 shots a game and bigs rebounding and doing all the yacka unappreciated etc etc. My teams basic rule is 'run the lanes and you will be rewarded' Bigs who dont sprint to give a target and put heat on the rim and guards who dont get them the ball very quickly get used to my deodorant. The game is a combination of inside/outside action with five fingers of the glove (10 fingers make the whole set actually) and everybody doing their "stuff" in unison and according to what decisions and rotations the D makes. Never seen a winning outfit yet where theres comparison disharmony and jealousy between the interiors and perimeters over who does what and how much.
You reckon Mitch Brock and Cody gave a stuff about how many shots Dalle Jord and Christian threw up or how much they had to rebound in the Emus team? Its a five man game mate everybody doing their "stuff" that turns a W. Thats all.

Maroochy put in a huge effort over the weekend. Had 8 players for the first game on the Saturday and then 7 for the other 3. This team is missing their 2 biggest players, Sam & Max both of whom are in the state squad but did not play at all during the weekend. I think that goes to show what heart that team has got and top marks to the players that stepped up and filled the required spots, you have shown the true meaning of playing as a team. Their zone defence was brilliant and seemed to be unbreakable.Good luck for the rest of the tournament.

I think that could be Blaine Estorffe great little player with a good eye reads the ball well and gets a lot of intercepts. Goes like a fire cracker up and down the court.

That is a fantasy
Cam had an incredible weekend and has peaked at the right time of year - final state trial and PL tourney
he had 35 v gold coast and was the standout player of the weekend, scoring every way possible and making assists and playing great d in a dominant defence
Bris without garrett and BC struggled v SD and Ippywith (I assume Chia starting) and got owned by Gold Coast
Mdore without 3 starters (cory played 1 game) and no one over 6'2"in dominant form at both ends

Cam is class and a great player, he has been tinkering with his shot and the results are now becoming evident. To those who bagged this kid, very foolish, he is a warrior and one tuff cookie. Will do Queensland proud once again at Nationals.
You forgot to mention that Brisbane also owned Logan by 17 with 7 players. They played inspired Basketball, with Jeremy Kelly playing his best game to date, the twins, Nicky, AK, big Luke and Toby Schultz putting in a great team effort.
They did struggle to beat SD, but they played the whole game with 6 players and BC had to stand on the court for the last minute to make 5 players on the court. All up a good effort.
Brissy also finished the game with only 6 fit players against GC and they led by 5 at half time, definately ran out of legs. GC shot the hell out of it in the 2nd half with Fletcher Smith hitting 7 three pointers and Anthony Cora having a blinder. GC deserved the win amd coasted home in the fourth with both teams basically shutting up shop in the last 5 minutes, with the game well and truly wrapped up by then.
Sure we all know MDore are the team to beat but I thought Brissy did exceptional with a maximum of 7 players in all their games. Lets give crediut where credit is due.

yes they have improved especially for a majority of bottom age players. good on them for a hard game.
furthermore, a big big shame on the northside wizards referees evenmore BQ referee controllers, i have been watching the games for many years and have seen bad refereeing and to give them a fair go they cant see all of the game or cant see what the parents see, but when it comes to blatant missed calls that draws the line. the U18 game refs were a tad bit one sided, letting no more than 3 out of bounds 1 of which was in the last seconds to score the winning basket. there were several travels and numerous foul calls missed in wizards favour. also 1 ref had a brother on the wizards. unbiased????? please give me a break.
I am all for "flow" of the game but please there are 2 teams on the court, how is that learning the kids real ball skills when they continually get away with penalties.
BQ needs to pull a finger out and take responsibility for game control, take a leaf from other sport codes and have unbiased non local refs with a professional conduct. we are all paying alot of money into this sport and the parents and kids expect a fair called game no matter the outcome, does anyone think that is too much to ask for??? i am not being a sore loser i am simply stating BQ and local refs need to come up with a better system. hell give the refs more money, the clubs can afford it. without the teams there is no clubs. UNBIASED, NON LOCAL REFS 2 TEAMS FAIR CALLS. SOMETHING NEEDS TO CHANGE, YOUR CHILD MAY GET HURT.

I value your opinion that you think you are not being a sore loser, but I’m almost certain you wouldn’t have ranted this much in a forum if you won. Allow me to fill in some things you happened to miss out about the game.
- at one point, the foul count was like 8 - 3 against the wiz in the 2nd quarter
- one player from logan travelled almost every time he caught the ball
- a logan parent's audible behaviour was so bad, which was intimidating for the wiz kids and embarrassing for logan kids, that he was eventually kicked out. these so called one sided refs could have kicked him out long before he was! "does anyone think that is too much to ask for???"
I agree a better system is to have non partial referees, which has been the case for many years. And the same things you have complained about, we have also suffered at your club when we visit, including brothers reffing. But for you to blindly suggest quote- the clubs can afford it, would suggest to me, that not only are you a bitter parent, but a parent who doesn’t support their own club and sport. because if you did, you would realise just how little money they have. But you have my support to continue to WATCH the game from the sideline for many more years to come.
My suggestions to you are, to not come on here and have a shot at the young referees directly, quote- a big big shame on the northside wizards referees, but take your complaints up with BQ directly, who run the competition. Your club and my club already have a shortage of refs, let alone quality ones! Lastly, pick up your phone and dial the logan's basketball office and ask "what can I do for my club, cause I don’t just want to watch and be opinionated anymore".

Sick of whinging losers picking on young refs
Your team has to be good enough to win on the road
2 or 3 dodgy calls which happen in most games at all levels suddenly become a one sided farce in the eyes of a one eyed supporter
The truth is the refs are doing a fantastic job in SE QLD
I have seen some brilliant pertormances by refs after which both teams will bitch about being ripped off
People are one eyed and this is the biggesxt problem
Have you ever come on here and complimented refs on a good performance
Most games are watched by a ref evaluator so if there is a problem it is dealt with immediately
Reffereeing is a tough job and we need to support not publicly attack

The refs were pretty lame in the girls game at NS as well, the spectators thought there had been new rules implemented with some of the dodgy calls made by the refs.
On the other court was also an incident which the ref/court controller withnessed - an U20 Northside player run off during the game and pushed over a row of chairs in anger, 2 little kids just so happened to be sitting beside that row of chairs lucky they werent injured. Had that been a logan player push ova the chairs, I wonder what the consequences would have been???

thanks for your comments re: our young team, we were very pleased with the win & we have improved alot since the last time the 2 teams played.
In regards to BQ, During my refereeing days, we travelled extensively & you were always partnered with a ref from a different association, that worked well, but you also have to take into the account of the costs involved to the referee's for travel, you also have to take into account that some referees are unable to drive & that burden is placed onto the parents of the referee's.
The referee's were more than qualified for that game in my opinion, in comparision with referee's from other associations that I have had personally, they were much younger and lesser experienced (with the exception of last weekends games at Southern Districts, those referees were top notch), than the two refs you had last night.
As for brothers refereeing brothers, trust in my experiences with similar situations, that siblings never get the better deal, they often come of worse - if you had a refereeing background, you would know the drill.
The mention of the out of bounds calls being missed, you would need to take into the account the pace of the game & how many out of bounds calls there were in the game, in my opinion we were called out of bounds and some of those plays there were fouls in my opinion. Same for you guys too, just gotta take it in the flow of the game, as for the OB on the so called game winner, couldn't see it from where I was sitting, so can't make a comment on it. You would have to admit though, would have been a top shot for it to drop, had 2 NS boys closing out on it.
You would have noticed that both teams had missed calls on drives to the rack, however, those may have been judged as "no-calls", that is the judgement of the referee.
You also must also noted the blistering pace of the game that was dictated by logan, that there was a high level of advantage/disadvantage calls to make - now being from Northside and you being from Logan, we are obviously not going to see eye to eye on those judgement calls. But those referee's were more than capable of determining the level of contact.
As far as a players bad "ball" skills, I don't think that there is one player on either side that is below par as far as skill goes.
My last point, if this comment came from any of the 2 parents carrying on from the sidelines, then I think I may have wasted my time replying to this comment because, from the opening tip, I noticed that nearly every called against logan was the green light for them to carry on like a irresponsible parent, back in my playing days, I would have been embarrased if my father carried on like that. Set a example to these young boy's, because lets face it, that game was a "Junior" basketball game.

Yes Al you were wasting your breath with this loser
He (she) Obviously agrees with the two supporters who behaved in a disgusting manner
Now this loser is shouting to the world and also states that a number of others also agree. This is a typical pack mentality and a very ugly side of basketball and junior sport
As you say they were bitching about calls from the outset and are obviously not fair minded
question to the loser was there any discussion on the disgraceful behaviour of your supporters or the poor performance of the coach or team or was it all the refs fault (Rhetorical)
Obviously by your actions you have shown that there is a very ugly side to this Logan unde 18 team and something Logan officials and BBI officials and everyone else should be wary of before you play them
You people are setting a disgraceful example to your young team
Do everyone a favour and change your attitude or get out of the sport
You lost live with it LOSERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
no I am not "one of those 2 parents" but they were portraying exactly what a lot of other people were feeling - frustrated and annoyed.
Surely you are not trying to justify their apalling behaviour? Everyone including coaches, players, parents and referees gets frustrated, annoyed and angry at times during the course of a game. Thankfuly the vast majority deal with these emotions in the appropriate manner.
Obviously these 2 moronic parents did not follow the code of conduct that all have to read and acknowledge before participating in BQJBC. Perhaps they can learn form the examples of their children, and thats pathetic when the kids have to teach the parents how to behave.
As for you coming on here and bagging out NS and the refs, what kind of example are you setting? I would suggest that you are as quilty as the 2 parents who were public with their poor behaviour. Using a public forum to anonmusly bag out some rfes because your team lost is probably more pathetic. Make no mistake about it, if your team would have won the game, you would not have mentioned it.
If you truly want to make changes to a sytem that is not perfect, perhaps go through the appropriate channels. That would be to contact your Association and make a formal complaint.
Or better yet get of your backside and run for the committee at your association/club and push for change the democratic way. To do this you would need to make a commitment to VOLUNTEER your time and money. Change is made this way..
Sadly me thinks you will continue to be a bad example to your child, team, club and the sport.

Yes it is true that the shot clock was not working. If you had seen the game you would have noticed that NS used the no shot clock to their advantage for the whole game. NS played extremely well and should be proud of their young team. Maroochydore are just on a roll at the moment , the entire squad of 8 players are all doing a great job without their 2 big men. All are playing great basketball and i am sure that the coaching staff would be very happy with them. This weekend against Logan should be a great game.

As im reading all these comments that contridict each other over and over again. Time and time again people saying that Logan parents send a bad, "unsportsmanlike" message to their children. You can say whatever you want but Logan parents are teaching there children to tell the truth and not to call people by names. How can somebody say that this is a bad message for this young juniour players.

To topic is based from Saturday game, I am not commenting on the "time and time" again, I only noticed it on Saturday throughout the game.
The parents that were conducting themselves inappropriately were not "telling the truth" They were abusing officials, there is no room for that in any stadium in junior sport.
One interesting thing I noted was a few logan parents who were obviously embarrased by the antics of 2 parents. Maybe thats a sign that they were out of line. They were sitting elsewhere.
Yes it is true that the shot clock was not working. If you had seen the game you would have noticed that NS used the no shot clock to their advantage for the whole game. NS played extremely well and should be proud of their young team. Maroochydore are just on a roll at the moment , the entire squad of 8 players are all doing a great job without their 2 big men. All are playing great basketball and i am sure that the coaching staff would be very happy with them. This weekend against Logan should be a great game.
Correct

So do you say that giving a ref a spray in the car park after the game (like what happened last weekend) is a good message?

Logan will want to makeup for last weekend and on their home court may bounce back over an under strengthed Maroochydore will be heaps of running Logan by 3
SD are playing well and have a shot at final four so they will get the win by 6
BBI will get this one even though NSide had a strong result last weekend. Will be tough as BBI are down in numbers BBI 8

Maroochy still only have 8 also but as far as being understrength I can't say it was noticeable at the Carnival. In fact what was noticeable was that the team did extremely well with 7 players and won all the games without their 2 "BIG" state players so KUDOS to the boys that did play.

BQ do this repeatedly...U20s, U18s boys/girls should definitely be on the courts with machinery working... it is becoming more and more prevelant that these senior teams are playing on the courts where the 24sec clock is not working or malfunctions during the game. And there the u16 girls are playing of the main court...go figure BQ???
And don't go blaming the associations, BQ gets a hell of alot of our $$$s to make sure the associations have working machinery, competent referees and adequate facilities for our teams. BQ GET OFF YOUR ARSES AND ENSURE THIS IS DONE!!!

Totally agree the 24 second clock can make a huge difference if it is a close game as if a team is winning by 1 0r 2 points they can use up time by just passing backwards and forwards to run the clock down and believe you me, it definitely happens and teams DO take advantage of it when there is no 24 second clock. Get these clocks working at all associations so teams are not disadvantaged it is not a big ask as it should be standard and go without saying. If your association is one of the ones with the non working 24 second clocks how about being proactive and asking BQ to get something done.
more often than not the host picks which game is on which court.

Not from what I was told. BQ sets up the draws and the courts. District officials have been pleading constantly with BQ to schedule higher priority courts for their senior level games

Well I know that we change games to different courts for things like shot clocks not working. And it isn't up to BQ to make sure our or anyone else shot clocks are working. the ppl who manage the centre are the ones we ask to fix our stuff... Wouldn't any other association be in similar situation?

I can name 4 seperate assoc. where shot clock has not worked, or has for only part of the game in my sons past two seasons...NS (ct 1), Logan (ct 1), SW (ct 2), BBI (ct 4) in u16s and u18 season. NOONE RESCHEDULES ANYTHING FOR A BROKEN SHOT CLOCK.
What do teams do when they get to court and they are told it isn't working or be aware its playing up and half way thru the game it breaks down?????

We certainly would swap a PL game for a SC one if we knew the shot clock was not workiing properly proir to the game commencing. Last I checked SC and CC games do not require a shot clock where PL have to have one.
A shot clock breaking down or "playing up" is unfortunately part of running a stadium, and we try and ensure that all are working properly and have plans in place in case they do not.
If the problem is a constant and no one addresses it that is a different thing. This is when the travelling team needs to make BQ aware of the problem so it does get addressed. Or you can come on here and have a whine, fat lot of good that will do.

No not at all, I was merely stating that these things happen and at times are unaviodable.
Unfortunately what has hit home is that you are the typical whining parent. We have all seen your type, first to whinge, last to raise their hand to volunteer their time to try and make a difference.
Ironicially you speak of change; nothing will change if you continue to sit on your backside and complain about problems on a public forum. Change will take place if concerned people/parents get involved at their club and VOLUNTEER their time. Yes that will take some time, money and effort on your part to make real change.

What is annoying is that anytime a parent makes a comment that is perceiced as criticism, those parents are immediately labeled as whingers. It is because of this that parents are too scared to make any observations to their associations. Stop being so sensitive and take the comments on board.

Are you serious, parents are too scared to comment, not sure what association your at if that is the case? Constructive criticism and suggestions that make a difference are welcome at my club and I am sure most others.
A tip for you and any other parent who makes a comment, instead of doing that why not roll up your selves and lend a hand? Comments are welcome, but sadly they are a dime a dozen, people/parents willing to pitch in and help are what is required.
Experience tells me that the person who wrote that post sits back and takes pot shots behnd a computer. Unlike me and many others who actually try and make a difference by volunteering our time, resources and expertise to the benifit of the sport.

I don't agree with you here.
How can a parent volunteering fix problems at venues? Yes help by parents with scorebench and managing teams is appreciated but that is irrelevant in regards to previous posts.
Also, please tell me by resources you do not mean money :O! Parents pay fees to have their children play. It is not their responsibility to maintain the equipment they pay clubs for their children to use.

My point is this: Moaning and bitching about a broken shot clock on a public forum like this will accomplish nothing!
What did you do about the shot clock not working? Did you inform your Clubs GM or any of yoour clubs board members of the problem so they could make inquiries through the correct channels to try and ensure that the problems do not continue. What have you ever done at your own club to ensure these problems do not arise when your club is the host venue?
As far as maintaining equipment you really have no idea about what all clubs do and pay to ensure that these things work safely and accurately. Sometimes they break down, most times they are able to be fixed, however rarely they can not and we proceed as best we can.
Thats great that you pay your fees, if you do not your child will not be able to play. Paying your fees enables your kid to play basketball, it is a user pays system.
Basketball in this country is largely run by volunteers who give alot more than the rego and weekly game fees you so proudly claim to pay. How much does your childs coach, assistant coach and manager get paid? NOTHING!! How much does the management committe at your club get paid for their hours of work? NOTHING!! Lucky that these volunteers choose to GIVE so much to your child's choosen sport, with out them there is no game.
Many are willing to sit on their backsides and critise, few are willing to try and make a difference by rolling up their sleeves and being part of the solution.

Don't insult the 8 players in Dore by saying the team is depleted as they are quality players in their own right. Those 8 players have got the Dore to where they are currently Number 1 on the ladder. The 2 missing players did not get the team to that position, the current 8 players did. Their strong point is the defense and I think they will have a win over Goldy on Sunday.

GC has hit its straps and should carry their form into the end part of the season. Has beat all teams in the competition except maroochydore. That said, Maroochy should still win this one. I reckon by single digits.

No, reasonably fair. But no 3 sec call against bbi when the big has his foot in keyway for 10 secs many times, when coach of SD called out for it to be looked at it was ignored for the entire game,. Not once was 3 secs called when it was violated many many times by both teams mind you.

Have to agree with you there absolutely shocking to watch. Garrett 3 from 30, with BC not far behind. Luke looks lost out there and cant defend. In fact all the BBI team played ordinary. They sure need some training if they have any chance against Maroochy next week. Kirron has to stop the guards shooting as much and start to look inside especially if their shot isn't on.

valid comment on this occasion. probs seem to be similar to bris. They matched up well against eachother. The argument about needing height only to play is rubbish. You need a team! Too many tall players on the court and it starts to look very slow and scrappy indeed. Agility and the ability to think and spin on a dime brings speed and momentum in offence and particularly in defence. Good defence forces errors. benefits to be had by having more than one plan. Zone is not going to cut it this season in this league

Who is making excuses? SD played with heart and passion and outplayed a disjointed, disinterested Brisbane outfit. Spartans deserved winners on the night, good to see the heart and desire that they played with.
I am a Brisbane parent too, I have heard no one from the actual Brisbane side making excuses or complaining about losing to a better side on the night.

Are you so arrogant that a justification needs to be made on somebody's tips? Surely not that big of a call? I mean RBay beat maroochydore. GC beat RBay. But still "a big call"? GC has hit its straps and should carry their form into the end part of the season. Has beat all teams in the competition except maroochydore. That said, Maroochy should still win this one. I reckon by single digits.
Thank god the maroochy boys don't take the attitudes that are shown on this site into games or they'd be bottom of the ladder.

Not a fair call that the mdore bench slacked off. Yes the GC did come back. But mdore point had been out there for most of the game and was in a car crash midweek. Resulted in a couple of turnovers which resulted in GC points. Not giving it to this kid as he made 14 points with many assists. I don't think that the Sunday game in such very hot conditions made it easy for either team. Well done by both teams and good luck for the rest of the season

Yeah but whats the reason? A coach who is one eyed about the game and cant recognise strengths and weaknesses or what is lacking on the court even when it is clealrly observed in the results. A coach who was criticised more than once by the other coaches. Parents whinig every week but wont say anything with the threat of their child being benched. You have to wonder if there is any desire for success? Every week is a repeat of the week before. As the season draws to an end and with no development is it worth it? Associations should have a responsibility to ensure coaches can coach. I know we're supposed to be thankful for volunteers and all that but its difficult to see for what. this season has been an unpleasant, nasty taste disappointment.

I would like to know why it is with coaches the kids that get the court time make lots more mistakes then not don't get benched (grow in confidence but not in skill) because they make many errors and know they won't come off to the kids who sit on the bench no confidence because they don't get any court time and when they do come on the 2nd 3rd or 4th quarter cold rejected feeling down make one mistake after a few sec or mins they get taken off straight away. Even when they are doing the right things are taken off to the favourites. You have to help these kids grow or you are doing is bringing them down. Build them don't weaken them. You will have a stronger team for it.

Granted it is a coachs job to get the boys gelling as a team but it would be a hell of a task for any coach when individual focus is on state and national selection not rep basketball and parents too, are coaching from their boys towards that same goal.

Kids and Coaches have got to realize you have more of a chance being selected if you play as a team rather individual if you look like you are show boating it a turn off, it's not about how many you score if you have a certain sparkle it will show and you will be chosen on that alone. It about everything you do and don't do. Or thats the way it should be.
And I wouldn't say all parents are coaching their kids I for one don't tell my kids what to do on a court thats for the coaches I will be let them know after the game if they played well and what they need to work on because I find their coaches don't inform them either way on their personal performance enough only as a team.

Last time I looked Brisbane were 2nd on the ladder. What the hell is wrong with that
The problem is often (not always) with one eyed parents MOST of whom think Little johnny is better than he actually is. They see other kids errors and not there own. They see parts of the game but not the whole thing
They have no comprehension of the complexities of coaching and will pick on 1 or 2 decisions made disregarding the HUNDREDS or THOUSANDS of decisions the coach had to make that day
The coach will leave players on who make mistakes because the positives will outweigh the negatives whereas the benchy will come on and screw up and yet offer no or few positives to compensate. With great players when they make a mistake you know that they will up the effort to compensate. The weaker player will dwell on the negative get worse and coaches get to know these patterns
When you are in a high pressure game you cannot afford the one or two mistakes that certain players habitually make as they may well be the difference between winning and losing
If a coach plays the bench a lot and loses games as a result you watch this board light up with the critics
In other words the coach cannot please everyone and just has to bite the bullet and get on with the job as best he - she can

I have made some shocking descisions in regards to playing bench players, after having a season of injuries in my team this year, I believe that our teams are only as strong as our weakest player. If it wasn't for our bench we would be on the bottom of the ladder. So I guess as a coach you do tred a fine line. There is a BBI U 16 team subbing 5 on 5 off, come classics they are going to be in a better position than anyone with 10 strong players ready to do the job. Just my thoughts :)

Gotta realise coaches have the teams for a Very limited time and there simply is not enough time to deal with everybody on every level The players have to speak to the coach when they have a question if not it is their own fault
As for Tryouts coaches will speak about defence and effort and all the cliches but they will select the players that can score end of story. The player that is unselfish and does not promote himself is in danger of going unnoticed
unless you are an automatic selection tryouts are a war of attrition against the guys who are trying for your spot

Got a classic lesson on benchies one year at the classics, when, 25 points down midway through the 3rd quarter of a round game and looking like ending badly for 2 consecutive losses and elimination from medal contention, I subbed in the last of the benchies so at least the boys would be able to endure the pain of elimination together as a group and at least take some form of solidarity away from a very disappointing (and expensive) trip north. The guy made three consecutive 3 pointers from his first 3 touches and sparked one of the biggest comebacks I've been involved with as either a player or coach. Won the game by 7 in the last minute and a half and went on to win the Classics final. I never underestimate the power of the hungry benchie, the value of the dedicated role player or the truism that its never over till the rotund lady sings.

You've obviously never been entrusted to select a State team or a team thats ever won anything. Not enough space on this board to debunk all youve said here. In case any State hopefuls are reading, just show the Coach your strengths especially if its your onball defensive work, your box out and rebound capabilities and your ability to be coached and play to instructions. You will definately come under notice for this stuff as Coach can always give you a shooting regimin to get you up to the point where you can stick the open look and compliment the gun scorers hes already identified and is trying to teach defence and rebounding to.

A team is only as good as the bench players it has. If they do not get a run throughout the season, it would be impossible for the "benchies" to contribute at classics. Very difficult to play a classic without the input of the bench players as fatigue / injury will be a factor. That aside, their money is just as good as anybodies else. If they pay they should be able to play, if not good enough to play they should not be selected.

Haha! You got it in one! And the guy was good enough. He was also bottom aged and had his role and his prospects of court time clearly outlined beforehand along with the teams decision to play for the win at Classics. Jason being the great team man and role player he was, being immensely popular with the team and having fantastic supportive parents made the decision to continue his journey with his mates as part of his team and play whatever role was handed him to attain their goal.
The guy did so in outstanding fashion and earned the players choice season MVP, the lasting respect and gratitude of his peers while becoming part of Maroochydore folklore. The quintessential example of a team player and outstanding young Australian.
Go the benchies and players who play to be part of a winning team above personal glory!

So they got to feel a little bit of what the bench players and their families feel each week. But they have to suck it up each week and keep postive just in case they are needed as a last resort. They have talent you picked them for it. you may not see it the first game or 2nd and when it does, the team can only benifit from it.
The problem is kids on the team see it has a threat to them if someone looks just as good as them in the position they play, so they won't want to help that kid get better so they distance themselves from them. They don't see a bit of healthy comp can only help them and the team.

Too true. I know theres a 6th man award in some teams but what about 7/8/9/10?
I tell kids about David Stiff who played on about 6 different NBL teams, never started on any of them and has more Championship rings than any other player. Robert Horry from the Spurs ,Lakers and whoever else is another example. How many games has Derek Fisher won for the Lakers without ever starting? But sometimes the most important cog in the winning wheel sits 8/9/10 down the bench. I find its good to vary rotations as much as possible during the regular season and dont sweat it so long as we make the final 4. If the team's decision is to play to win at Classics then you take less risks but vary as much as possible without losing. If you've done it well during the preceding season you'll find all 10 players are match ready and capable when called upon.

SD at home, rattled a dysfunctional BBI last week. Logan will do it tough but will come away with a win by 5

BBI and Maroochy, definitely the game of the round this week. Maroochy has been cruising and will be hard to beat. No doubt the bigs will be back for this match up. After BBI's dismal lose to SD last week I'm guessing Kirrons been working hard with the boys this week. As long as the guards dont jack up every shot like last week it should be a cracker game. Really hard to call this one but if BBi play like they did last week Maroochy will win by 40. Let hope the BBI coaches have sorted the troubles. Still going to say BBI by 1

Interesting comments, I am a little bewildered that you could tip BBI by 1. They have shown very poor form of late, the Dore have been purring along quite nicely,untroubled by most, very consistent, the exact opposite of BBI. As for KB shorting out the boys......I don't think so. He hasn't been able to do that all season, why would he now!

Brisbane will host GC in the semis of PL next week regardless of any results in the final round. Brisbane have the points spread on GC courtesy of their big win early in the season.
The MDore/Brisbane game will be interesting but will have no effect on positons 1 to 3. Therefore the game of the round IMO will be SD and Logan. If Lloydy coaches SD again I am tipping them to win and grab the last playoff spot on the ladder.

I think a loss is good to drive improvement for the finals, however dropping a game wouldn't make sense.
ive also never met a coach that wants to lose any game, let alone throw it.

Maroochydore to account for Logan by 23+ points, the toughest game of this round is Gold Coast @ Brisbane where I think Brisbane will win by 12+ points in a close match.
Then it is the final another close game. Could go either way
Gold Coast don't stand a chance Brisbane have 7 players on the court at all times(5 players and 2 referees)LOL

Why say bias? Logan came and the Dore turned it on. Just a wonder why logan only had 8 players?

Maybe because Bribane girls will be on court 1 undefeated for the year. Possible best chance for a win and to keep the Maroochydore supports from making a major impact on the final result. You take whatever court you get but Iam sure last years final between BBI and Logan was on 1 thanks its not on court4

BQ determine the court allocation for these games, not the host association. Nice conspricy theroy thou......
Maybe because they start with the U12 PL boys final on court 1, then 14 girls PL final court 1, 16 boys PL final court 1 and 18 girls PL final court 1... see a pattern.

Maybe because BBI figure the best way to restrict Mdores running game and settle it in to a half court game is to play them on the narrow court with no atmosphere and the second best referees? You can be sure whatever court Scheibs wanted the game on it would be on.

scheibs had no say in where the game was played, or did anyone at bbi if they did wouldnt they want the two teams that play the 16 boys southern cup final be on court 1 both teams from bbi.
you obviously are from maroochydore and are just having a cry. by the way court 2 has been extended and is full size so there goes the narrow court excuse maybe the thing thats narrow is ur mind.

why is the U18 Boys PL Grand Final being played on court 2..
What is the problem with the ladies having 'show court' so to speak, probably be a better game.... And do more for the equality of sport being played around Australia than again showcasing the Boys/Mens as we always seem to do.... I dont have an issue with it!!!!
Why is it such an issue? Enlighten me please.......

The mens is the game everybody wants to see. And thats a shame Garrett is out. He played a good team game against GC last week. The kid shines when he gives up the ball a bit more. Because he hits a better percentage but gets the team involved as well. Resulted in a big win too.

Would seem logical to play the womens and then the mens as feature games Not side by side at the same time which diminishes both games

Play the U 20 Finals on court 2 at 6 and 8pm. Let the true showcase games of our JUNIOR competiton the U 18 mens and womens final be on court 1 at 6 and 8 pm.
The U 20 comp is really not deserving of the prime time of 8 pm and on court 1. I mean there are only 5 mens teams and 4 womens teams in the whole comp. This competiton was not wanted by the majority of clubs at the BQJBC meeting prior to the start of the season. Some lobbying by the teams involved resulted in BQ running this insiginificant competiton.
Another poor decison by BQ on this one.

I'm wondering if you will think the same way when your son or daughter hasn't got a summer rep comp to play in after U18?
