Yep that was one of the key strategies we had coming into the game.

Paraguay lodge match protest after Australian player "sung at them".

An unhappy Paraguay staff have lodged a dispute after an Australian player sung at them in junk time on Monday night. The player, Mr N.Young, was accused of antagonising opposition players with sweet melodies.

When asked to be more specific, Paraguan backup guard Ortigoza said "he was stirring me up. Saying things like
"Don't cry no tears on me, don't cry no tears on me,
cause when all the waters gone, the feeling lingers on
"."

Paraguan big man Salinis gave evidence to support Ortigoza's claim, saying he was accused of travelling by Young.

He was singing this real catchy tune, sayin':
"People shufflin' their feet Aimed at me, I know it, said Salinis.
People sleepin' in their shoes (But I aint no Roadwork cone)
But there's a warnin' sign on the road ahead
There's a lot of people sayin' we'd be better off dead
Don't feel like Satan, but I am to them
So I try to forget it any way I can.
Keep on rockin' in the free world
...

At one point the game seemed to freeze, with a TV time out. But there was no add break. Instead, the players begun a harmonious melody, with all players on court singing a long to "heart of gold".

"It was morale boosting", captain Barrassi said. "Even better than bacon".

But the music set only lasted 20mins, and was cut off on his 4th track, ironically called "Tell me why", something Young's manager (BreakerJ) has been requesting from the nose bleed section of the stands for weeks.

Whitewind has commented saying he will consider future minutes to Young if he has this sort of positive impact on the scoreline.

haha great writeup!

If match reviews like that don't get people back onto these forums I don't know what will.

Next week the eliminations start. We have managed 8th spot, so will play off whoever finishes in 25th. It could even be our only other Asian opponents, Malaysia. That would be final for next seasons home court which would be fun. Coaches, Game shapes are vital over the next few, lets see if we can make a quarter final and finish top 8.

Yeah, one for the ages. But on the positives, we held a very good team to 40pts for the game. England's big were equal if not better than ours (equal salary, 15.0 ratings), and using more enthusiasm in an inside offence, we held them off to only 40.

Australia finished in the Consolation Tourney tonight being defeated by Portugal in the top 16. We leave the tournament having secured home court advantage for next season in the Asian Tournament. We will now go straight into scouting mode, giving ourselves the best chance to form a solid team to make a run at the next World Cup. Thanks to the managers that contributed and collaborated with me to ensure our teams success. Without this, we would just be a team of individual players with individual agendas. Hopefully I have helped those managers with their players development long term too. I am always keen to stay involved in training plans after the u21 days so please do not hesitate to keep me updated!
