@NBL @WNBL @VirginAustralia @WestAustralia NBL news really throwing it back to 2007 this week 👌

[Michael DiFabrizio @MichaelDiFab]

It gets wilder when you consider that in 2004, Patty Mills was an *Aussie rules* U15 national champs best and fairest and All Australian. He told mX (RIP 🪦) in 2011 that he had turned down the Swans before joining the AIS.

[Michael DiFabrizio @MichaelDiFab]

This has to be the greatest sliding-doors moment in Australian sport, right?

Scott Pendlebury walks away from his AIS basketball scholarship, opening up a place taken by Patty Mills.

Both still going strong 22 years later 🤯 https://t.co/c4da9uK8nK

Put a roof over the whole state imo.

[Michael DiFabrizio @MichaelDiFab]

You won't believe which state government the AFL demanded pay for a roof over their stadium.

[Michael DiFabrizio @MichaelDiFab]

You won't believe which club the AFL made a roof a requirement for getting a licence.

@SC_Boz I did play, albeit my engagement dropped quite a bit. Finished 11th. Would love a top-10 battle in Classic next year!

@rickydbryan @sportsontvguy Are you serious? On Australia's east coast the other three kickoffs that day are 8am, 11am and 2pm. On a Saturday.

[Michael DiFabrizio @MichaelDiFab]

@Socceroos Group matches in Vancouver, Seattle and San Francisco.

Winning the group would mean not having to leave the west coast until the semi-finals.

Minimal travel and avoiding the hot-and-humid cities is handy.

@QJPeterson13 QJ, being gay is not a choice. Take a moment to listen to Isaac Humphries speak about his journey. No one would choose going through that kind of hell.

Will Hickey has what it takes to win a league MVP. He does it all. #NBL26

@_HAMMER_32 Support the NBL long enough and you'll eventually have your team taken away. Thought those days were over but here we are... 😔

[Michael DiFabrizio @MichaelDiFab]

@jordanmcnbl Like it. Perth seem very well set up this year.

Lot of similarities with my projection attempt. Same top six/bottom four except Illawarra were first and Cairns last (again). Possible that's giving too much weight to last season though.

[Michael DiFabrizio @MichaelDiFab]

@BBall_Blokes Sad news, though understandable. The pod was an automatic listen every week of the season. My thanks to each of you for all the info, discussion and enjoyment you have provided 🙏

[Michael DiFabrizio @MichaelDiFab]

@SuperCoachHoops @NBL 😔

[Michael DiFabrizio @MichaelDiFab]

@NBL Big Wednesday is back 🤙

[Michael DiFabrizio @MichaelDiFab]

@cenchfooty Not to be pedantic but this appears to actually be Aaron Cadman + Jesse Hogan. Cadman's 5 goals x Hogan's 6 would equal 30 goals.

[Michael DiFabrizio @MichaelDiFab]

Stop framing it as being about the Boomers.

It reduces his enormous contribution to Australian sport down to "what else can he do for us?"

Bryce Cotton has already given enough enjoyment to so many people to be worthy of calling himself an Australian.

[NBL @NBL]

Will we ever see Boomer Bryce? ⤵️

@29_ChristosLiam Excellent for a first year!

[Michael DiFabrizio @MichaelDiFab]

Another #NBLSupercoach season done. Ranked 266. Happy to just sneak into the top 1% late. A few lessons learned along the way, too.
