Always a bit of a bogie team for us home and away. Are they as clinical as they were in the cup games? Our depth is good in comparison but biggest league game so far

If Lewis and McKnight are in form then it'll be a cracking game - with both of them playing well they make the whole team tick over very smoothly.

Abysmal performance from the Sharks. Credit the Rocks who were ready at the start but the Sharks were awful at both end. That is the issue with Lyons for me. I have praised him this year but his teams go from really good to terrible. We have lost by 30 off to Bristol at home and now 40 at Rocks. That is inexcusbale. The team are not prepared when this happens. They are losing games in the first 5 minutes.
Sharks have a good 5 and a decent 6th man in MArsden but if the guards have a poor shooting night and opponents clog the middle to stop Koch then we struggle as the bench is not BBL standard. Please if anyone wants any entertainment and 2 worthy Shaqting the fool moments, watch on you tube the two three pointers from Backovic near the end of the game. One hits the top of the backboard - the stanchion support - straight from his hands and another hits the side of the bottom of the backboard - both missed the basket by about 4 feet. Either he is half blind or he is just an appalling basketball player. Utterly embarrassing. He is on the team because of his Mum in my opinion. As is the Montgomery lad due to his Dad again in my opinion. If anyone can tell me what they bring to the team I am all ears?
Its neptocism and pathetic and unproffesional. Means we have 2 bench players that are effectively paid ball boys that are suited up as their Mum and Dad say so. Really grates me but not going to change anything.
Anyway back to the game Rocks looked well drilled. Nice inside and outside. Sharks worry me in that if McKnight and LEwis dont keep to standards they set, we could be in for more nights like this as the frontcourt three are so slow and leaden footed at both ends. I really like Cashaw but the starters need some help for nights when they are off. Lyons said he wanted more depth this year - we have less depth than last year!

Just saw those 3 point attempts by Backovic. Absolutely disastrous.

Another team performance. Great to see fraser malcolm step off the bench. Sharks below average. Fortunate the scottish refs tried to keep them in it...
Backovic the less said the better. Horrible shots.

Perhaps I was wrong about Le Coach being like Ole

To be honest I don`t care if Mummy`s boy gets 11 minutes in a blow out loss as long as he only plays in scrub time
Lewis looked tired again tonight and the team looked flat
I hope they didn`t travel up in cars or a minibus, that's not funny !

You can expect off nights from your guards at least 1 in 3 games if not more. So like I say above its a write off for the league Lions and Riders have strengthened. Wolves might be able to maintain a challenge. What about Nix and Rocks? |

Almost worth the pain of the previous 35 minutes building up to them! |
