A couple of corporates probably will fork out for it, but I don’t think it’s going to be an easy sell at $3500 a pop.

Only time I don’t bring a jumper, bit nippy in Melbourne tonight!

Glad I missed a ticket... I was sure it was tomorrow night!

United are on Monday night with their open air game, but I think tomorrow and Monday night are both forecast for rain!!!

But as always the Phoenix home games corresponds with the snooze ball derby.

Got that pic of United wearing a Giants kit yet?

 

[ManOfClay]

this ain’t great

 

[ManOfClay]

Turned it off. Just woeful

Interesting that Ninnis coaches the Lightning to a solid win the same weekend the 36ers serve that up

Probably not that interesting the lightning won by 10 points over a team below them on the ladder that they beat by 26 a fortnight ago.

 

[El Doederino]

36ers are trying to flog off a dinner with a meet and greet opportunity with Montrezl Harrell for $3500 a ticket

I guess they have to recoup the costs of paying Ninnis to coach the Lightning somehow

Will Harrell stick around for the whole dinner or will he go sit in the kitchen if he doesn’t like the entree?

Is this not the Giants style?

Nope

 

[Gak Attack]

Steindl has his landing space taken and injured and no call at all. Meanwhile Goulding just throws himself whenever he wants and to the line

 

[Gak Attack]

Are the crowd really booing Drmic for being on the receiving end of a cowardly dog shot?

1000%

Good game. Thought Melbourne might just sneak past at times. But we had an answer for every United question.
Thought hummer looked good.
Definitely no chemistry with the team at the moment which is expected, being the new guy.

Love the melts / trolls about drmic on social media.
Te rangi played an epic game. Had his shooting shoes on.


Should have been a foul on the steindl three.

 

[pacemaker]

Adelaide do miss DJ quite a bit. I have them owning possession but can't score like when DJ was on the court. They should be 10 points in front.

 

[ManOfClay]

Yeah glad I went to mass instead

 

[BobbyMorri]

Really love the NBL having games non-stop during this time.

It does beat the big bash.

Coincidentally the Adelaide Entertainment Centre would’ve been better to play cricket on too that what got served up last night

yeah. The Hobart Hurricanes used to have a match on X-Mas Eve, but still the players complained. This was despite the fact the Canes only played a Melbourne team and on X-Mas Eve Afternoon, so everyone would be back home before X-mas.

The NBL has gone all in on X-mas games. I will catch the JJ's tmw and it wouldn't shock me if I watched a bit of the Kings/Hawks later. Xmas can get boring in the afternoon. All credit to the players and staff, especially the Breakers and Bullets

Another bad loss for the 36ers while the coach they sacked for ‘Not meeting standards’ sparks the Lightning’s season

Again. The lightning beat a team below them by 10 points. They beat the same team by 26 two weeks ago. Are you going to keep that same energy when the lightning lose too?

The Sixers are a dumpster fire but ninnis is no Phil Jackson.

The players at least played for Ninnis.

It’s clear they don’t for Wells.

Oh and the Lightning were a dumpster fire before they hired Ninnis.

JJ's are playing "Hack a Taco" in the 4th.

And it is working.
