We were done comprehensively tonight by China, finishing the first stage of the Continental tourney in 3rd.

MVPS
3- Zidarevic- ( 15pts, 8 assists, 2 reb)
2- Kewell ( 20pts, 4 stls, 4 rebs 2 assists)
1- Santegoeds ( 7 pts, 14 rebs, 15.5 rating)

We await our 2nd round schedule...

I feel that Kewell really should've gotten the three points over Zidane. He was the better player on both offence and defence.

Hamburger meanwhile should get minus one point for stupidly chucking up 10 threes when that's not his game.

Doesn't bode well to be blown-out despite getting a GDP call right, even if it was against China in a meaningless phase one group game...

Zidarevics 8 assists while putting up similar scoring output gave him the nod from me :)

But hey, its just an opinion to keep things fun.

whitewind is the coach and he took his time to make these so I and probably others appreciate the effort. thank you and not the best player win brownlow every year, system is rigged etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc :p

Thank you, as I said, just a bit of fun to involve the community. Everyone is certainly entitled to their own opinions (y)

I certainly dont dislike any players on the u21s, quite the opposite, i am probably too attached to them!

Australia downs Iran in a hard fought contest (32506)

The green and gold have taken victory in a closely fought battle with Iran at Shohoku Stadium. It was a close encounter with neither team able to pull away throughout the match. The shooting percentages were proof that the defense from both sides was outstanding, with the winning side going 35%, and 32% for the second place getters. The assist count possibly proved the difference, with Zidarevic, Kewell and Parkes combining for 17 of the teams 23 assists, holding the opposition to just 12. If there was a more important statistic to win, it was probably pts scored column, which the winning team managed to take 75-68.

MVPs
3 votes- Jikke Santegoeds (17pts, 11 boards, 2 assists, 1 stl, 15.0 rating)
2 votes- Maverick (9 boards, 5 assists, 5 pts, 2 stls, 1 blk)
1 vote- Cortez Ryan (15 boards, 12 pts, 2 assists)

Around the grounds we saw Hong Kong outscore Taiwan by 10 in the 4th to win by 9pts (32505), and we saw the Philippines miss a corner 3 for the match vs China. If one thing rings out here, its that there will be some close matches for this seasons World Cup qualification.

Next up is Hong Kong.

I had tipped Kewell to get 2 votes looking at the box score. What is your grudge against him anyway?

Maverick had a sensational game, and pulled us away in the key part of the game. Captains knock right there. Worthy of the 3 but didnt want to rob Santegoeds.
