Bainsynators Plebs Vs Home Axis 61-101

On paper, all Home Axis needed to do was to show up to win this one, and the Axis didn't dissapoint their fans. With the powerhouse Irunel Stancu in brutal form, the Plebs were swept aside easily.

3 Votes - Home Axis - Irunel Stancu 40 points 28 rebounds - Double Double

The tall Romanian had a picnic inside, knocking in 18-24FGs and dominating the boards with 28 rebounds. 3 steals and a block capped a dominant display.

2 votes - Home Axis - Paco Garrido 27 points 7 assists 4 steals.

Garrido was the dominant small man on the court, in a game with the big men the focus. Shooting 10-21 was a good return and keeping his direct opponent to just 10 points 0 assists, sealed the votes.

1 vote - Bainsynators Plebs - Xavier Suelves 24 points, 18 rebs - Double Double

The giant Suelvez held his own for his overmatched team. 6 Offensive boards and two steals were examples of his hussle.

Maggots Vs Whomp's Donkeys 91-105

The final game of the round in the South was an entertaining scrap between Maggots and fellow battlers, Whomp's Donkeys. The match was a four quarter arm wrestle, with the Maggots hanging in there all day, but superior rebounding and better shooting helped the Donkeys edge to a hard fought 14 point win, with the Maggots not disgraced.

3 Votes - Whomps Donkeys - Jordi Monroig 27 points 13 rebs 2 blocks - Double Double

Big Jordi was solid as always in the key for the Donkeys. Doing the ABC's that every coach needs. He was also solid on D, helping to keep the Maggots Centres to just 9 points between them. Solid, inconspicuous and reliable.

2 Votes - Maggots - Christian Brackenhoff 35 points 5 assists 2 rebounds 4 three pointers, 0 Turn Overs

Going head to head with the dangerous Dewey Bowers, THe Hoff was dynamic on offense with 35 points and 5 assists. He also kept the free scoring Bowers to 7 points. Shooting 15-28 kept his team in the game.

1 Vote - Whomps Donkeys - Ignacia Santana 23 points 18 rebounds 2 blocks

The Spanish U21 prospect continued to enhance his CV with a solid all round effort. 6 offensive rebounds provided plenty of second chance possessions for the Donks.

Round 4

Maggots vs. Geelong Vipers 65 - 99

Vipers coach Matt1986 was ecstatic about the victory and had this to say agter the game, 'It is a relief to get our first Private League victory... hopefully the boys dont party too hard that they can't challenge Possum Chasers next week'. Maggots were only really in this game for a quarter until the Vipers took over.

3 votes - Geelong Vipers - François Cartier - 24 pts 17 rebs 6 asts

The big Frenchman had a game high in rebounds and was pivotal in the Vipers inside game. With 6 dimes aswell Cartier hand a hand in alot of the trips for his team and was the most influential player in this one.

2 votes - Geelong Vipers - Ace Dispo - 13 pts 8 rebs

Not much happening in this game individual performance wise apart from Cartier. Disco was shooting just over 50% from the field and picking up a couple of steals and assists in the process.

1 vote - Maggots - Christian Brakenhoff - 29 pts Rating 10.0

Brak is still the only Maggot to put up a fight scoring the game high 29 points. The margin and the costly shooting by 'the hoff' costs him the 2 in this one shooting only 12-32 from the field, however managing to be a bit more efficient from beyond the arc with 5-13 from long.

Mangoloids vs. Western Titans 66 - 104

The depleted Mangoloid lineup was no match for the dominant Titans outfit. With both sides playing PtB the perimiter defense for the Titans was far superior to that of their opponent.

3 votes - Western Titans - Bento Filho - 11 pts 14 rebs 6 OR

Bento did all of his work in only 28 mins. He was big on the boards pulling down more than his counterpart Samdup at C. His hustle on the offensive end was impressive also giving his team 6 more attempts at second chance points.

2 votes - Mangoloids - Sofronio Mabutol - 24 pts 18 rebs

Mabutol was the best point getter and rebounder on the night. He battled hard for the Mangoloids to keep the score and the rebounding stat respectable but it was not enough to stop this one being a blowout.

1 vote - Western Titans - Konstantine Shavgulidze - 17 pts 3 rebs 4 asts 2 stls

Konstantine picks up 1 here for his all-round performance shooting an efficient 7-12 fg's and hitting 2 of those from deep. Doing a little bit of everything he was able to keep the ball secure for the entire 28 mins he was on the court with 0 turnovers.

Bainsynators plebs vs. Brisbane Thunder 82 - 58

Battle of the South Commissioners saw the Plebs accounting for the Thunder what looked easy for their side. The first quarter was where the damage was done with the Plebs pulling away to a 16 point lead at the end of the 1st. It was a fairly even game after that with the Thunder holding their own for 3 quarters.

3 votes - Bainsynators Plebs - Xavier Suelves - 16 pts 11 rebs

The spaniard was the most influential player on the court shooting 54% for his 16 pts and grabbing 2 offensive rebounds on a night where they were hard to come done with. Xavier was also strong in holding onto the orange with no turnovers. He was also able to keep Thunder's best known player to 25% shooting.

2 votes - Bainsynators Plebs - António Terroso - 18 pts 14 rebs

Antonio was also good on the night being part of the Latin duo inside for the Plebs. He shot 47% for his 18 points including a big threeball. A very clean game from Antonio

1 vote - Brisbane Thunder - Ng Ting Yu - 13 pts 13 rebs

A 13 - 13 means he gets a vote in this one. An efficient 55% shooting and a 3 helped his side keep respect in the second half.

Eggplantpopolopolous vs. shepparton shooters 71 - 58

ChuckyFE came out fired up for this one after ruining his car earlier in the day. The shooters never stood a chance with the intensity of the Eggs.

3 votes - Eggplantpopolopolous - Gorka Baztarrika - 20 pts 14 rebs 2 blks

Gorka shot a cool 8-14 for his 20 pts while keeping the Aussie star Viojan to 5-16. His adding of 14 boards is a handy performance for the Eggplant big man

2 votes - Shepparton Shooters - Junel Viojan - 13 pts 15 rebs 3 asts 2 stls

Junel was big on the boards with a game high 15 rebounds and added 13 pts to his statline, and after the game showed his lack of intelligence by saying the following 'those boys wouldnt know how to crash the boards even if they had a board crashing machine'. i dont know what to get from this but perhaps Craig Sager shouldnt interview him after games anymore.

1 vote - Eggplantpopolopolous - Igotz Arranz - 16 pts 10 rebs 4 blks

'I gotz' another vote to add to his repertoire with a efficient 6-13 and 10 rebound game. He sent the orange to the carpark 4 times. We spotted Anderson after the game who looked physically tired from running in and out the arena all day from Arranz's handywork

Match of the Round

Whompas Donkeys vs. Possum Chasers 93 - 95

This was the match of the round in the South with as you can see Possum Chasers holding on to a narrow victory. To be honest the possums deserved to win this one seeing as they held control of the match for a majority. The lead by a max of 17 pts during the 3rd qtr however a late push saw the lead cut to 9 with one qtr to go. PC still retained that 9 point lead with only 3 minutes on the clock. looking set to break their fishbowl slide PC dropped their guard and allowed Bowers to take over for 3 minutes. hitting 3 threes in those 3 minutes it looked as if the Donkeys were going to take the momentum into OT after he hit his third with 2 seconds on the clock to make it 93-93. TT was locked and loaded and made the inside shot count. BUZZERBEATER!! His clutch rating has got to be up near Legen... dary after that one.

3 votes - Whompas Donkeys - Dewey Bowers - 46 points 6 rebs

On appeal Dewey is awarded the 3 votes.
46 points... did he need to do anything else. his 50% shooting from 3 and the field was what got the Donkeys so close to the 'W'. Plus those 3 3's in the last few minutes were huge to force TT's magic. Great game Dewey.

2 votes - Possum Chasers - Trinh Trinh - 26 pts 19 rebs 1 BB

On appeal TT drops down to 2 votes due to Bowers amazing last quartersurge. The composure was amazing and im sorry to say for Cacho, the only way you were getting the 2 is if he had taken that shot himself.

1 vote - Possum Chasers - Simeón Cacho - 34 pts 20 rebs

34-20 is a double double worthy of getting 3 votes in almost any game. Extremely unlucky to get the 1 but the other two players where there when the game came to a close for their sides

amos rogues vs. Home Axis 52 - 66

Well this was a competitive match for the most part with the rogues being unable to keep up with the old Axis outfit. The rogues possibly struggle because of the 1-3-1 against the Low post offense of their opponent. The two teams filled out the Plebisite Arena which is a magnificant place to play ball

3 votes - Home Axis - Irinel Stancu - 15 pts 22 rebs

Irinel had another great game shooting 7-13 for his 15 points and helping his team to a rebound differential of +9 and probably the victory. The big Romanian is looking likely to be a frontrunner in the MVP stakes after back to back solid performances.

2 votes - Amos Rogues - Dimitris Miriounis - 28 pts 12.5 rating

Dimitris scored 13 more points than any other player despite shooting only 33% from the field. His 28 points is over half of his teams points for the night... i cant imagine if he wasnt playing.

1 vote - Home Axis - Ignacio Sánchez - 13 pts 16 rebs 4 blks

You cant go past Ignacio for a vote in this one with a double double and 4 blocks he was influential alongside Stancu. The 5-19 shooting is the only blemish on his game

MVP Leaderboard (after round 4)

There is a logjam at 6 votes with only a couple of players able to jump out the front. Home Axis lead the South and now lead the MVP voting with Irinel Stancu. Gorka, Bento and Trinh all picked up Player of the Game performances and are in hot pursuit of Stancu. News just in... the appeal from Whompa against TT picking up the 3 is succesful, moving Bowers to 3 votes and Trinh back into the logjam
