Herbert Injury Update

Hood Sweeney Adelaide 36ers guard , Nathan Herbert has received a belated Christmas present today from the doctors. Nathan has been given a diagnosis that will only see him miss the New Years Eve clash against the Wollongong Hawks. Herbert was initially looking at least a 4 week lay off after being accidentally poked in the eye last game against the Perth Wildcats. He suffered a bruised Retina and bleeding to the eye which 36ers staff feared would be a long term injury. The news also means that Herbert will not be placed on injury waivers that would have required him missing two weeks of action. The Hood Sweeney 36ers will travel to Wollongong with 9 players. Tom Garlepp will suit up in replacement for the NBL's leading rebounder Jacob Holmes. Jacob is also expected to be back in action on the Brett Maher Court on January 10 along side Nathan Herbert.

That was Darren Ng on radio just then - Three (3) guards in Woolongong - Gilchrist Groves Ng.

I MAY not have made sense above. Anyways - sounded like Sixers will run Groves Gilchrist Ng on the court most of the time - playing 3 guards - I THINK that's what Darren meant .
Probably good idea , I'd guess ?

Someone asked if Ninja will be playing at SF and he said Hill will start there but they may have to run three guards at times. The only other real option is to play Balls at the 3 so no surprise there.
