Canada 77
Boomers 76

[DOC]

That 37 point quarter by Canada is the most we have ever conceded in a world cup, That surprises me on two counts.

1. Would have thought we have had worse, considered we have played USA, Spain, Lithuania etc,

2. It was Canada.

[Gozu]

At least we've made up for that bad third by blowing them out of the water in the 4th.

Was watching the Serbia v Philippines game last night and the commentators were losing their minds over the most basic stuff, was absolutey bizarre...

If they commentate a US game watchout, they may do a 12th Man version of Daryl Eastlake and actually explode..

Shocking commentary in all the games I have seen

Qtr time

Boomers 18
Senegal 16

[DOC]

Senegal have had Five air balls, four in the first quarter, says to me we should low these blokes away when they get tired.

[Gozu]

Disappointed in our effort so far pretty much all Senegal having going for them is athleticism and they're killing us on the boards.

[DOC]

They are all effort. Playing their hearts out. Good defence see's them taking harder shots. Thats the key. We have shown that they go to sleep on defence (tired) which gives us easy buckets at times. A small lead at the break, but I want to see a far greater effort in the second.

I'm liking the way they're playing they don't have the skill but are out-hustling us and are responding well to a 50+ point flogging from Lithuania.

However I think Lemanis will tell our guys to pull their fingers out in the second half and we'll respond accordingly.
