SuperCALifragilisticexpialidocious - recognition at last
WHEN Calvin Thomas Bruton was honoured with a Medal of the Order of Australia (OAM) on Australia Day, it was long overdue recognition of a man who galvanises opinion, yet continues to push our beloved sport in every way he can.

Breakers on the backfoot: Rd.3
SO early in the season yet this is a big round for the NBL's travelling show, the New Zealand Breakers, at 0-1 and facing Adelaide tonight, then the Wildcats in Perth.
NBL21 PotW Rd2: Plus bonus Preview
CAM Oliver extending his highlight reel dunking prowess was a big feature of the round's great action but two more Taipans losses eliminated him from any Player of the Week considerations.
Round Rap (2): Here come the 'Cats, there go the Taipans
THE Hawks are working hard to earn back their Illawarra name, the squeeze is on the Orange, and the Wildcats are off and running in hot pursuit of a historic NBL threepeat.
