Sydney now at Sixers and Sevens: NBL

In: NBL — Friday, 12 Jan, 2024

ADELAIDE, once more wearing its throwback 1999 NBL (back-to-back) champion uniforms last night took a big chunk out of current back-to-back champion Sydney Kings' dreams of going one better in 2024 with a convincing home win, Trey Kell and Isaac Humphries again at their best but Sunday Dech also sizzling.

Tasmania suddenly a sinking island: NBL

In: NBL — Thursday, 11 Jan, 2024

TASMANIA is bordering on becoming the NBL's "island of irrelevancy" after dropping its road game 77-80 to a Brisbane minus the drive of its scoring wizard Nathan Sobey, but with import Chris Smith reinforcing his bona fides as a player better than a "Sixth Man of the Year" candidate.

First quarters fire up spirits: WNBL

In: WNBL — Thursday, 11 Jan, 2024

HOW important are good starts in the first quarter? Last night's WNBL matches had openers which could not have been of greater contrast yet both determined exactly how those matches would play out. Abbey Wehrung paced Bendigo to a big win over Adelaide and Sami Whitcomb powered Townsville past Melbourne.


NBL Rankings, Tips 15: In Bryce We Trust

In: NBL — Wednesday, 10 Jan, 2024

THE NBL playoff/play-in aspirations of every club not named Melbourne or Perth will go under the microscope across the eight matches in Round 15, our rankings reflecting the wide form variations which have made tipping a nightmare, beyond the always reliable - expecting Bryce Cotton to shine.

WNBL Rankings, Tips 11: Deja vu? Nah. Same old, same old

In: WNBL — Wednesday, 10 Jan, 2024

DON'T be alarmed if you miss Melbourne hosting WNBL leader Townsville tonight to help tip off Round 11. They play again at the same venue on Saturday. Nothing new there. Townsville played Perth on December 31 in Townsville. Then again at the same venue on January 3. Yes, we believe we have located the culprit behind the scheduling.


NBL TotW14: Great Scott this is a tough one

In: NBL — Tuesday, 9 Jan, 2024

FIVE of the NBL's six winners out of Round 14 had their hands up to get our attention as candidates for our Team of the Week accolade, with only league-leading Melbourne - a strong winner in Sydney but then also a lonesome loser in Adelaide - not qualifying for consideration after splitting its matches.

WNBL TotW10: Flying high and 'flame on'

In: WNBL — Monday, 8 Jan, 2024

DEFENDING WNBL champion and league-leading Townsville was on fire in Round 10 as it saw off Perth's challenge at home, then hit the road to stifle the spirit out of Bendigo and stake its claim for our Team of the Week accolade. Sadly, it just wasn't quite enough.

Breakers on brink, Kings dethroned yet again

In: NBL — Monday, 8 Jan, 2024

BRISBANE yesterday drove a stake through Sydney's dreams of an NBL threepeat, reducing the Kings to mere townsfolk, after Perth shot 39 free throws to stall New Zealand's revival, speculation rampant the Breakers could fold despite last year competing in the championship series and taking it to five games.


WNBL Wrap 10: Big names take a big beating

In: WNBL — Sunday, 7 Jan, 2024

THE 2023-24 WNBL season tipped off with bold claims "anyone can beat anyone on any given night". Round 10 certainly reflected that, Lightning bolting from Sydney, Canberra capping Southside, its season on the line Melbourne topping both Southside and Sydney before Perth took the gloss from Adelaide's weekend.
