Erin Phillips could have got a gig here. Give up the cushy boundary rider gig.

Seriously Tolo bouncing the ball 10 times at the halfway line should not be a thing.

 

[Plugger35]

A big 3 on the half time buzzer to give the Opals a handy break.

Not much between these teams though.

 

[Moonwatcher]

Take a shot everytime the commentators tell us it's a must win game for the Opals

I think the Australian government took out a health advisory against such a game.

 

[Satan]

Sloppy turnovers and missing easy shots

 

[Luuuc]

Opals & Canada both equally bad that half.
Disappointing response from the Opals after the Nigeria embarrassment. Still weak & loose with the ball. Lucky to get away with it.
Lift this half or die.

 

[AJ_2000]

Sloppy turnovers and missing easy shots

Up to 12 now and the commentary is "it's better than against Nigeria"

 

[AJ_2000]

Make that 13 of a terrible inbounds pass.

 

[AJ_2000]

Take a shot everytime the commentators tell us it's a must win game for the Opals

Take another shot...

 

[ExRoyboy]

This Opals team is very frustrating to watch. So many sloppy turnovers and dumb decisions. I never remember the Opals being this sloppy in the past

 

[Moonwatcher]

Can't get it in that hole shaped thing

 

[ExRoyboy]

That’s the easiest miss of all, so damn frustrating

 

[AJ_2000]

This guy should be our head coach

 

[Moonwatcher]

lol

 

[Crusty Demon]

Offence is so fn bad. Miracle if we get through to the next stage

 

[Satan]

Lack of practice pre games

Defence jacked up

 

[Wickzki]

Great end to that quarter Opals.

 

[AJ_2000]

Great end to that quarter Opals.

Felt like a good quarter.... And we've extended the lead from 6 to 7

 

[Luuuc]

Great end to that quarter Opals.

Was average, but compared to earlier shite it did almost feel great

 

[Plugger35]

The Canadian team must be copping it on BigIceHockey like the Opals have been copping it here.

 

[AJ_2000]

And a terrible turnover into an unsportsmanlike foul.

 

[ExRoyboy]

When did we forget how to pass the ball??? Some of these basic passes that become turnovers are just terrible

 

[Luuuc]

It's an indictment on our development programs that we are this reliant on a 36 year old American playing heavy minutes to stop our backcourt from completely falling to pieces

Canada missed 4 ft
