Around Round 16
WOLLONGONG is considering petitioning the NBL for a late nickname change from Hawks to Black Cats after Glen Saville joined its injured ranks this round.

THE fact Kristina Keneally, as BA CEO - even in absentia - has not bought into the Canberra Times-driven debate over sexism in Australian basketball is only slightly more intriguing than Carrie Graf's consistent silence.
The new Bird-Magic
NO basketball rivalry/friendship will ever come close to the famed Bird-Magic hate-love relationship which played out from 1979-1992 but King James and the Durantula definitely are on course for a good one of their own.
Around Round 15
NEW Wollongong replacement import Malcolm Grant will make his debut on Australia Day against reigning NBL champion New Zealand at The Sandpit.

LIKE many Adelaide 36ers fans, I would love 1986 championship coach Ken Cole to pull off his ambitious plan to buy the NBL club.
CJ to Hawks falls through
UNFORESEEN visa complications have stymied Wollongong's plans to add SEABL superstar CJ Massingale to its NBL line-up, replacing injured import Lance Hurdle, as reported here yesterday.
Around Round 14
EXPECT Wollongong to shortly reveal CJ Massingale will fill Lance Hurdle's NBL shoes upto and until the star Hawks import makes it back from a serious knee injury.
Hawks look a little plucked
EITHER a black cat crossed Gordie McLeod's path, Glen Saville broke a mirror or Oscar Forman walked under a ladder at some point this NBL season.
