Thanks for the 3rd term as Manager. This team on paper will prove quite strong, it is an exciting time to be a part of the u21 program.

The schedule is up here:

The team selection is underway. I will look to announce the starting 12 by the weekend, after Fridays skill/game shape update. Managers with potential players, please open communications with me so we can establish a team that will cover all 5 positions well.

Congrats on your third term whitewind. I hear the elecrion was a nailbiter.. (lol)

Looking forward to seeing the team this season, especially the SF's which will give me an indication of how close my trainees are to selection.

Best of luck!

Our draw looks pretty good, we don't have to play against China till last which should give us some time to build enthusiasm and build the team toward certain tactics. Are you still in the process of selecting the team? Are you posting them in the federation soon?

We've got our first game against ranked 80 Kazakhstan tomorrow night. Do you have any tactics in mind?

Playing in 4 of the 5 World cup games for Australia last season, "Nico" has experience on his side. Sporting a nasty 100TSP to start season 32, is he a PG, is he a SG, is he a SF? What we do know is he is a jet.

Also a part of last seasons World cup as a 20yr old, Freeman will support Nico to steer team Australia to a victorious path more times than not.

Team list for season 32:
Eric Nicodemou
Kolya Wills
Timoti McGuigan
Ewan Price
Franklin Freeman
Ellis Facer
Jimmy Sengstock
Pin Nguyen
Charlie Raichura
Benji Nicholas
Adam Snyder

Looking forward to seeing how my boy Huang "the people's champion" Yurong goes. I imagine he'd have to be one of the the first 19yo draftees to make the cut in a long time - so good to see they are relevant under the new draft system.

Good luck for the season.

Australia defeat Kazakhstan 118-43
(34292)

Nice start, and great contribution from a variety of scoring options. 30 assists is great, 9 3s is very effective from 21 attempts, and 5 only turnovers.

MVPs
3 votes- Franklin Freeman. 17pts on 7-13FG, 5 assists, 4 boards, 2 stls, 2 blocks.
2 votes- Ellis Facer. 19pts on 9-17 shooting. 5 assists, 3 steals, 3 boards.
1 vote- Pin Nguyen. 12pts of 6-8 FG, 10 boards, 5 assists, 3 blocks.

Next week we face Japan, who played a solid game against China. Good start team.

They are in the season 29 draft thread. I'd copy them over, but I'm on my phone.

He started at 63 tsp, so he had pretty outstanding starting skills.

Oh, surprising. He isn't even as good as I thought he would be (still really good though)
