We are playing differently already this half. Go back to what we did on 1st half, why play blokes with 3 fouls so early on it makes our D almost non existent

I just love how any Aussie team, any sport, is always up for the scrap when it comes to playing better opposition.

Having said that, is the best boomers team we have ever put on the floor?

In terms of rankings, I think some of those 90s teams were ranked up as high as five.
However, it might reflect the quality of world BBall that this particular Aussie side might be our best, definitely our best since the high watermark of the 90s.

Aussies look far more fluent with the ball than the US at the moment - a real cohesion amongst them

Need to push oir defense out, they will kill us from beyond the arc. Time to bite the bullet and go with all the guys with foul trouble.
