The men's race is open. I would say Sturt even though I did give them a spray last year.
Women's is who is going to be second to North..??

Forestville - if they get Dix back, and Pero & Reesy play. Biggest Forntline in the ABL.
Eastern - Back to back? Maybe.
North - can do it, I reffed a couple of games when they blew out teams, but also reffed the game when Woodville Schooled them - at hillcrest. .
Sturt - Are Williams, Forman, Gower, all suiting up? If so, they are in with a huge chance.
Southern - Chance to improve on last year. Reffed them a couple of times last year, they have the goods, but need to be more disciplined.
Centrals - with Wilkey, Reggie (is he playing for them?) expect them to improve. Have shown some patches in Summer comp. The Sleeping giant.
Woodville - Interesting with Lots of player movements, young team. Whitmore - come back!
West - Will be competitive. They always are.
South - Shows glimpses. we'll see how they go.
Norwood - They can play - but can they keep it consistent.
I have not put this in any particulr order. I am looking forward to seeiing these teams when I ref them next season.

Haven't Norwood quietly amassed the roster to end all ABA rosters?
What are the likely line-ups for each team?

my prediction is the team that wins the most games will finish at the top of the table....my crystal ball told me!!!

South looks like this...Kosmider, Scanlan, Truck, Thur, Baylis, Pilkington, Steve Williams, Matt Davies, Agirl(???), McKenzie, Lockyear and a couple of the younger guys, and maybe two old old blokes. Hope I didn't leave anyone out!

panther, i think you have just confirmed which team is going to finish bottom....unless your two old guys are of NBL standard.

Mens's Sturt v Southern
Women's North v Forestville
It should be a very close competition in the men, and expect centrals to improve and cause some headaches. North to dominate the Women's and take out the national title as well. Forestville 2nd, Sturt 3rd, Norwood 4th then a trafic jam.

just a rumour at this stage, but i heard from a very inside source that mark davis is suitin up for the panthers.... i think that may count as one of their old schools

Panther i think it looks like a great line up ....almost. I would like to see Dylan Hicks playing, now i know that is not going to happen but I think we still miss him. Is Luke Frost going to play?

good chance

well how about centrals with wilkey, watson, vandenburgh, clayton, hammond, atkins, harvey and atkins that will log most of the minutes. you have quality scorers there and smallish but quick big men.

Thanks yo yo, if I knew who you were I would put a pineapple on that bet and i'm sure a lot of other people will too...
Mum, yes Luke is playing, I knew I would forget someone!!!

West: Adam Pearce (pg), Danny Phillips (sg), Ben Evans (sf), Paul Bell (pf), Blake Truslove (c) (apparently???)
Bench: will consist of Shane Crothers, Michael Furmaniak, Daniel Zacharjak, Rory Craddock, Luke Walsh, Mark Ali
West maybe in the recruiting market though with Nash and Truslove may not be suiting up.
If it's only Nash then they can get a great player, if its both Nash and Truslove then the bearcats can get two maybe three great players.
Remember Cioffi is in Italy so that might free up some space in the Bearcats cap.
I'd like to see what the West voard come up with! They can buy a championship if they spend wisely
