Basketball was back in the MG Plasters SECBL Men’s competition, the opening game the Panthers and the Roos. Two Roos players (Malok and Makoi) arriving just after the tip leaving the Roos with four players to open the game wasn’t the ideal start. Caleb Bachmann and young gun Zach Nulty showed flashed early for the Roos team, however the depth, balance and talent of the Panthers were too strong and ran away with a big victory. Oli Thomson had a big scoring night with 25 but it was Kyle Tipene who was the difference maker early when the game was up for grabs.

The Cougars were rolling early in their matchup with the Bulldogs Blue starting with a 10 – 0 run. The Bulldogs behind the steady play of Simon Berkefeld worked their way back into the game and a one-point lead at half time.

The game really heated up in the last quarter as the Bulldogs tried desperately to hold on to their lead while Toby de Wit and the Cougars worked tirelessly to wrestle control of the game their way. Emotions got the better of the Cougars as two technical fouls down the stretch enabled the Bulldogs to increase their lead in a close game, Bulldogs coming away with a five point win behind 29 points from Simon Berkefeld.

Another close game between on the night was between the Bulldogs Red and the Cats with the Bulldogs coming away with the three-point win on the back of 32 points from Matt Black. Both teams boasting plenty of young local talent making for a great match up.

The Cats had plenty of contributors with four players reaching double figures, Josh Murphy able to have a positive impact on both ends of the floor using his size to help his side on the boards. It was Matt Black who the Cats couldn’t slow down who used his speed to get to his spots and consistently keep the scoreboard ticking over for his Bulldogs side.
