If Bevo uses him correctly, Oscar could tear them 6ers apart. Fingers crossed. lol

It's funny, because that's exactly the response Joey gave.
He said that come Thursday, none of that will matter, they will be ready to go.

Anonymous,

Most of your post doesn't really deserve a response but I'll bite on the only legitimate part. I think Creek will guard Forman on the perimeter. I think if the Hawks expose Adelaide at the 4 we'll be forced to go smaller and play Creek there.

Deng is another option for Forman. Long enough to try and stop shots.

That said, remember that Forman has played fairly few minutes this season, though I hope Bevo noticed how effective that Clarke-Forman two-man setup was last game and tries it a lot more.

That's really bad timing

Isaac got any inside knowledge on how to put your bro off his game?

Wildcats are the still the underdogs no matter how sick the league leading, 'inor premiership winning, MVP, coach of the year and most improved player having Sixers are.

It was on the news last night that 3 guys are suffering from colds

Joey said they will all be playing

lol at all this talk that Oscar will be the one to stop. To stop him being effective is simple.

1. When he sets pick and rolls he will always pop to 3 point line so the defender just has to stay with him and other players have to be ready to rotate onto the guy with the ball if required.

2. If he is on the wing and someone drives middle the defender can't help out (must stay at home on him). The rest of the players have to rotate.

3. If he gets the ball at 3 point line assume he is going to shoot it, so put a hand up immediately and make him put it on the floor. He is average at driving. If he does drive don't bail him out by fouling him.

Joey knows this and will instruct his team these things. They did it effectively well in the 3rd game they played.

On the offensive end go at him EVERY TIME as he is a poor defender. Don't settle for fade away shots over him, instead take it straight into him. It will be a possible easy score or he will foul.

Clarke is the one the Sixers need to be worried about.

The fact that Adelaide are getting some over the heat usually directed at the Cats this time of year make me feel like we have achieved something...

Agreed, Clarke will be the trouble maker

In the article about it after yesterday's training I think it said DJ & Drmic didn't train and that was why Drmic left the NBL Awards night early and Creek excepted his award for him.

accepted

Yep...DJ & Drmnic under a cloud with gastro/food poisoning.

Hodgson too. Though less severe.

Randle whinging about the Hawks being dirty, the 36ers Twitter account sending some smug messages to the Hawks, an alleged sickness permeating through the camp - don't really like what i'm hearing from the Hawks.

Would not surprise me one bit if the Hawks knocked them off. Reminds me of when Melbourne United came into last years playoffs, thinking they were borderline unbeatable.

Boomers fan "Would not surprise me one bit if the Hawks knocked them off."

It shouldn't be a surprise anyway as the league is so tight any team could come out on top.

I don't think they're excuses as such, it doesn't seem like it's all a fabrication. Drmic was at the awards but left when he came down crook and he couldn't even accept his award. Maybe I'm naive, but it seems legit.

Probably shouldn't have ordered the Sweet n' Sour Hawk.

Why are they excuses if they are legit and half the league saw it...FFS some people just hate for the sake of hating!

Don't think the twitter messages are smug as much as a bit of banter to get some interaction going on a platform that we have all complained doesn't get used enough?

People do get sick. Drmic has very obviously and clearly been sick. There are no excuses being made. I am very sure the team actually wants to win. I expect they will play, play well, and beat Wollongong tomorrow night. Talk of the contrary is idiocy.

The way I see it, the Sixers might lose. Either that or they will win.

Anyone who believes they have the power of perfect prediction in this topsy-turvy season is trolling.

Probably caught the bug off each other with all that group stage invading they did for every INDIVIDUAL award at the awards night.

Starting to come across as a bunch of tools. Where I was once a bit of a fan of this team and what Joey has done with them I now just hope they get smashed.

I should have said overly cocky tools.

Might be wrong, probably am but that's how they have come across to me of late.

Serious. All the Randle BS about Hawks thugs, the over the top homie act at the awards and just other little things.

All I said is that they come across to me as overly cocky. I liked them a lot more when they were just playing their arses and overachieving.

Said I am probably wrong but my perception is that I now don't like them as much as I used too. Bitter....not nearly...hoping my Hawks smash them.....a hell of a lot more than I would have a few months ago.

So what your saying is you liked them before they were being successful :P

OMG - 36ers have become the new Wildcats hehe.

Randle is sick.What's Randle trying to achieve by saying the Hawks are a dirty team.I'm sure they play the game no harder than other teams like Perth and Cairns.I think he just likes to get under there skin but the Hawks should just say to him no worries Ant Man.I remember when he first came into the league last year Homicide Williams asked him if he liked the nickname Ant Man and he said he hates it.If Randle is on the floor the closest Hawk should step on Ant Man and squash him then he can call them dirty.

Good to see a team other than Perth getting drilled! It's playoffs time, what do you expect is going to happen, it ain't netball season is it? Time for teams to play with a bit of nuts.

Yep, the banter is almost as good as the games :P

Hope the 6ers are swept!

DJ & Hodgson both trained today, Drmic the only one still struggling now.
