WNBL1: Big guns fail to fire

In: WNBL — Sunday, 5 Nov, 2023

IT IS a total fallacy to call any result from the first round of a new season as "an upset". After all, which teams are established and which teams aren't? Frankly, it's ridiculous. But wow, what an upset Perth caused over Sydney and Melbourne over Southside to open the WNBL season.

THE WNBL’s 2023-24 Season tips off tonight – yes, we realise you probably didn’t know because the outstanding women’s league is Basketball Australia’s best kept secret – and for our Brad&Boti podcast with Brad Rosen and I, we secured arguably the GOAT of Australian point guards, Kristi Harrower for a special preview show.

THE WNBL’s 2023-24 Season tips off tonight in Adelaide with a full-strength Lightning hosting Melbourne, the Boomers down Kristy Wallace and Monique Conti, and with Aimee Rocci (concussion protocols) a game-time decision.

 


Brad&Boti: Milton the Monster

In: NBL, WNBL — Tuesday, 10 Oct, 2023

MILTON Doyle, already being compared to the NBL’s all-time greatest import Leroy Loggins, took Round 2 by the throat, leading Tasmania into performances which made Brad Rosen and I marvel at this week’s Brad&Boti podcast. Just how good are these Jackies?

Thirstday - JJs 'yay' to AFL, Euroleague and more

In: NBL, WNBL — Thursday, 4 May, 2023

CONSPICUOUS amid all the bellicose bliss of the AFL's announcement of a 19th club in Tasmania was the absence of any reference to the NBL's JackJumpers - the  success of which has sparked the unprecedented revival and interest in basketball on the island. The JJs already expressed support for the new AFL entity, but reciprocated?
